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.

Forces and their Interactions Revision - AQA New Specification - Physics Trilogy content

(0)
This is a revision task intended to summarise the first part 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 included on this the physics only content that is required if you are teaching trilogy. I have made a combined science one as well if that is more suited. 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.

Revision of Atomic Structure Physics Trilogy - AQA 2016 New Specification

(0)
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 included on this the physics only content that is required if you are teaching trilogy. I have made a combined science one as well if that is more suited. The physics only are highlighted in orange. 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.
Static Charge - Lesson 17 - Electricity - AQA Physics 2016 Specification

Static Charge - Lesson 17 - Electricity - AQA Physics 2016 Specification

(0)
This is my lesson on Static Charge for the new AQA Specification. I have included my worksheet that I made for this lesson, but you will need a textbook or some exam questions for the demonstrate section of the lesson or some other form of assessment. AQA will have a range o worksheets that you could use. Please be aware that this is very similar to one of my year 11 lessons I have, so if you did buy that one, no need to get this one as it's just that but a bit more stripped down! Should also me noted that this is an Physics only lesson. Not required for Combined award.

Electric Fields - Lesson 18 - Electricity - Physics AQA New Specification

(0)
This is a Physics only lesson in the Electricity topic of the new AQA Specification. It is a light lesson as there is not a lot of content that the students are required to know. Perhaps stick it together with static charge if you have hour lessons (mine are 50 mins). You will also need an appropriate AQA worksheet to go with this as I used copyrighted exam questions to assess.

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.

Numeracy in Science - Drawing Tables

(0)
This is a numeracy/skills based lesson designed to train students into the proper ways of creating and labelling a good scientific table. The main activity involves having the class create an extensive table for an experiment (you may choose to complete the experiment if you wish!) and they can PASA their progress on these skills at the end.

Forces and Pressure KS3 Physics Topic - L8 - Pressure on Solids

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 eight 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.

These are a set of resources you could use to revise the content of this unit. I have provided a standard revision sheet and mind map, as well as a Kagan structured "find someone who" activity on forces and a lower ability types of forces quiz. This is lesson two 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.
Lesson 6 - Resistance of a Wire - KS3 Electricity
PerigeeScienceResourcesPerigeeScienceResources

Lesson 6 - Resistance of a Wire - KS3 Electricity

(0)
This is an experiment brought down from GCSE to KS3 so that the students can have an early taste of a required practical. The class will have the majority of the lesson to complete the lengthy experiment after you have shown the modelling slides and demonstrated the experiment yourself. This lesson is followed up with a large mid-topic assessment piece. The lesson can be done in 50 mins, but could over run. Included are the ppt and learning mat. 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.

Lesson 9 - Electrostatics - KS3 Electricity

(0)
This is a fun lesson! You will need to book a Van Der Graaf generator for the demonstrate phase of the lesson and you will need balloons (and ideally, a balloon pump so that no moisture enters the balloon for maximum effect). The ppt is heavily animated (it took a long time to make) but does get the concept across well. I have two free resources from the SoW if you would like to see how I structure these lessons.

Lesson 1 - Conductors and Insulators - KS3 Electricity
PerigeeScienceResourcesPerigeeScienceResources

Lesson 1 - Conductors and Insulators - KS3 Electricity

(3)
This is the introductory lesson to a scheme of work I wrote on Electricity for KS3. This could be taught to any year, however as it is a stripped down version of the content in the AQA Physics Specification and as such is designed to be most useful for that course. Lesson one revises content that should have been delivered in KS2, namely what a conductor and an insulator are. I have also added in the learning mat I made for the lesson as well. Please bear in mind that this lesson is designed for a 50 minute period, and as such you may need to add in another activity if you are an hour lesson.
