I am a KS3-4 Physics teacher currently teaching in the North West of England. In addition to physics, I am also pursuing an Astronomy GCSE for my school.
I will only upload items that I am proud of and as such I hope you will agree are of a good quality.

These two resources are to be used as part of a Physics Forces topic as an assessment of sorts. The class are to answer the 6 mark question using the success criteria provided, then you will take these home to mark and assess a level achieved.
I have also provided my assessment feedback generator that I have made to tackle some common problems I encountered. You simply copy in your class list and assign them up to 3 WWWs and EBIs from the list (these can be changed if required). This will then generate a printout on the second sheet that you can give to the class to save you writing it all!
This is a bundle of every single topic covered in the Activate Science 2 books at KS3. Each one is tailored to the content in the book and contains page numbers for where the students can get the information needed from.
The price of this bundle is 40% cheaper than buying the resources separately!
This is a summary sheet designed for use with the Activate Science books for KS3. I have put the numbers where relevant to help the searching of the necessary content. I have also included an extension task sheet where students can create and share their own questions on the topic.
This is a quiz I made that is intended to be used for at least 50 minutes. As such, it is good for end of year lessons and or team building lessons. Split into 5 rounds, it is all based on general science knowledge (with the exception of the music round) and the answers are included.
Students will find this great fun in teams!
This is a revision worksheet that summarises the above topic from the Activate 2 Science books for KS3 Year 8. I have also included page numbers from those books where applicable to ease the finding of the content for the questions.
Also included is an extension task of writing new questions based on the content that the class can peer test with
This contains all of the revision resources I have made for each topic in the Activate Science 1 book. I have also referenced where to find information from the book. These can however be used/ amended to suit any scheme of work.
I have reduced the price of this bundle permanently, making it 40% cheaper than buying all of the sheets individually!
This is my revision resource for the Activate book 1 Forces topic. I have referenced page numbers as well for students to easily find things.
Additionally I have added an extension task of question cards - the students make up their own forces questions and hand them to each other to test themselves.

This is an assessment feedback generator made to tackle some common problems you may encounter when doing an assessed piece of work. You simply copy in your class list and assign them up to 3 WWWs and EBIs from the list (these can be changed if required). This will then generate a printout on the second sheet that you can give to the class to save you writing it all!
I have left this one populated with some responses that I used as an example - it was for a Hooke's Law 6 mark Question (this can be found packaged together with this generator)
This can be adapted to any topic or task and will drastically cut down on your writing during assessment and still provide in depth guidance!

This is a worksheet created specifically to help embed mathematical principles in a science context. The worksheet is tasking the students to make various things the subject and will help develop equation transformation skills.
This is bundled with an adjoining powerpoint if required.
This is a supplementary powerpoint that you could use to deliver this classic activity. you will need sticky tape and paper for the main activity, but this can give it a nice framing and you can link it to whatever topic you require (Forces, Matter, Enrichment day, etc.)
The emphasis is on teamwork.
This is a total of 13 quizzes, with answers that are designed to cover the 23 equations students are required to remember for the AQA specification. I also include exam question style questions, units questions and a few of the given equations as well.
Answers are provided at the end. (sometimes in letter form, sometimes in word form)
I used these as starters once a week with my year 11 classes last year and I kept a running tally of scores for my classes. It really helped cement their equation revision!
At £10, you are getting these starters for less than £1 per resource. They take approximately 10-15 mins to complete and mark, to this is in total over 3 hours of lesson resources.
This is intended as a revision worksheet summary of the particle model topic in AQA Physics 2016. This only includes the content relevant to combined science, not Trilogy (I have made a separate one for this.)
Print it out back to back to save on paper.
I have used the AQA specification to create all of these questions and as such should not be missing anything major from the topic.
The last slide are question cards you can hand out as an extension for students who finish to make their own questions for their peers.
This is a revision task intended to summarise the first half of the forces topic on the new AQA Physics specification. I have used the specification itself to ensure I covered as much as possible, and I have also tailored this worksheet to the combined science specification. Physics trilogy students will need to use a different worksheet (which I have made).
The forces topic is very large so I am splitting the revision of it into two as it does split quite nicely.
Print this back to back to reduce paper wastage.
The last slide is an extension task - students can cut out these question cards and write their own questions using the revision sheet to help them. These can then be passed to other members of the group.
This is an entirely optional lesson - a reflection lesson that I use after I have marked books and expect homework in. A series of tasks are included on the slides and it is expected that the students will have marking/questions to do from your comments in the books.
This is a worksheet created specifically to help embed mathematical principles in a science context. The worksheet is tasking the students to put things in and take things out of standard form.
This is bundled with an adjoining powerpoint if required.
This is a small homework sheet with answers (don’t print them :D) that you can use to assess the first few lessons of content to my electricity SoW.
I have two free resources from the SoW if you would like to see how I structure these lessons. Please visit my shop to find them.
This is very simply just a big picture. What I have done is make these three colours using the three primary light colours red, green and blue. I have made it big enough so that you will need to really zoom in in order to see the individually coloured pixels.
I have looked all over this internet for a similar type of "wow factor" demonstration of light illusions and could find none.
Hope you like it! :D
