This bundle consists of 10 sections covering the “forces and movement” chapter of the unit Forces and Motion in KS4 GCSE physics. Each section consists of a PDF document designed for pupils to use as a handout to be integrated into the lesson. There is a corresponding document for teachers - it consists of my own notes and solutions to questions and tasks. A typical layout of each section includes: setting learning objectives learning the theory examples small tasks exam-style questions This bundle is also great for revision and recapping key ideas for pupils in year 11 before their exams. Below are the individual sections that I’ve divided the unit of Forces and Motion into. I hope that this resource is helpful and saves you plenty of time!

Topic: Energy / Energy stores / Types of energy Level: GCSE, key stage 4 I am following the AQA science (physics) syllabus but this resource is suitable for anyone teaching KS4 physics on Energy Stores ( or previously known as Different Types of Energy). Resources: 1. Powerpoint slides: 18 slides with clickable items for navigation. Answers to questions in slides reveal upon clicking. I have written “Presenter’s notes” under some slides, mostly about extension ideas and some simple notes on the theory. 2. Notes for pupils: Use this 3 page document as worksheets or handouts. Pupils can take notes during lesson or complete tasks in this editable document. Also, it includes 1 exam style question. 3. Printout: A list of descriptions (clues) for pupils to read and guess which energy store the description is referring to. (This can be cut out and put in a hat for pupils to pick out.) This makes Task 1 in the powerpoint interactive. Hope this resource is helpful for you. Please do let me know if there’s any suggestions for improvement. I aim to upload all my lessons on “Energy and Energy Resources” so that you can have a complete set of lessons for this unit. Be sure to check out this bundle I’ve uploaded for the unit of Energy (107 Slides for £8 only!): https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/energy-energy-transfer-energy-stores-ks4-gcse-science-physics-whole-unit-11891651 Enjoy!
