This is a lesson aimed ad mid-ability students on the above topic. I have also included a simple worksheet I made to accompany it, but you may want to supplement the lesson with additional worksheets from AQA or another source. The aim was to get the students used to using the equation and developing numeracy skills.

This is the introductory lesson into the Electricity topic for the new AQA scheme of work for Physics. This particular set of work is intended for mid and lower ability students. The content could also be supplemented by using another components worksheet or textbook.

This is the PowerPoint I use to teach and demonstrate how to complete the second required practical of the topic. The class will need to do at least two components so there is a good chance this will turn into a double lesson. I chose a lamp and a normal resistor. Download the accompanying worksheets from AQA for methods or handouts.

This is a lesson I made to teach stopping distance. In it I also used an exam question on stopping distance, but as it is copyrighted I will not also upload this. Please source your own. The video starter is a powerful hook and the consolidate/plenary is also a good evaluation tool.

This is my worksheet that is based on both of the required equations for power in the new AQA specification. Answers are also provided on printable A5 sheets for peer assessment.

This is the first part of a double lesson on series circuits. The crux of this lesson is to get the idea of a series circuit being like a roller coaster to help model the concept. YOu may wish to include a demonstration in your lesson as well as pick an exam question that would be relevant to this topic.

This is a power point covering the differences between AC and DC. You will need to add in an AQA worksheet on the topic for assessment and you will need an Oscilloscope, power pack and cell as well. I tried to link AC to a heart beat as this could be completely new content for a year 10 class. I have put suggestion on how to lead the starter in the comments of the lesson.

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.

Very simple and easy to read Powerpoint on efficiency and Sankey diagrams. It is a rather big lesson and you may wish to split it over two lessons, but it includes a practical activity with balls (and data is provided if the experiment is not wanted!) and step by step guidance on how to calculate an efficiency.

This is my PowerPoint that is geared specifically to help embed mathematical skills in a Science context. This one is concerning large and small numbers/standard form. I have created this to make it as simple to follow and build upon as possible, with the intention of making this accessible to students from all year groups if necessary. I have also created a worksheet specifically for this lesson. Any appropriate worksheet could be used in place however.

This recource is a literacy based question on the title topic for the year 7 scheme of work followed by most boards. Included is a question sheet and the success criteria. The students could use the criteria to write an answer and the either the teacher or the students could assess the answer using the criteria and offer improvements.

This recource is a literacy based question on the title topic for the year 7 scheme of work followed by most boards. Included is a question sheet and the success criteria.

This recource is a literacy based question on the title topic for the year 8 scheme of work followed by most boards. Included is a question sheet and the success criteria. The students could use the criteria to write an answer and the either the teacher or the students could assess the answer using the criteria and offer improvements.

This resource contains both a PowerPoint and an accompanying learning mat/worksheet for the activities in the lesson. The learning mat is designed to be folded and glued into a book. It is split into two lessons, one for planning and one for the investigation and graph. This is lesson four and five in a SoW that is designed to into AQA GCSE content by year 9. This lesson goes into the idea of balanced and unbalanced forces and then defines a resultant force.

This is a fully resourced lesson covering both the positives and negatives of nuclear power as a source of energy, but then goes deeper into the ethics and justifications for where we build them. The main purpose of this is to help develop more higher order thinking about the topic as groups will be tasked to evaluate and justify their choice of site and be able to articulate effective reasoning. There is also a third task of peer assessment - using a success criteria, the "site selection committee" are then put under scrutiny from the "HM Government" and they have to decide if they made a persuasive enough argument. It's all made up to be rather thought provoking and fun. Possibly more suited to higher ability in it's current form, but could easily be scaffolded for lower ability classes. I work in the North West, so unfortunately that's the map you've got! You could easily replace it with your own if you wish with no problems though.

This is a revision task intended to summarise the whole of the atomic structure 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 ensured that I have only covered the content needed for combined award, not full Trilogy Physics. If you require that, I have made a separate sheet. 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.
