Studying the electromagnetic spectrum is fascinating and crucial as it reveals diverse energy forms—from radio waves to gamma rays—that power telecommunications, medical imaging, and space exploration. This spectrum underpins technologies like smartphones and satellite communications, while aiding astronomers in studying the universe’s origins. Its understanding is fundamental in physics and engineering, shaping innovations that improve daily life and address global challenges in climate science and environmental monitoring.
This research project template provides the perfect grab and go, print and provide resource that can supplement lessons. It is an project template with questions to check comprehension and inspire scientific thinking. It gives a rich and supportive framework that can be tweaked as needed for students to support differentiation.
Each research project template includes space for a one paragraph summary (that may or may not link to the 2 page science article also available on this topic). Students should produce a mathematical connection, an engineering / technology connection, 2 interesting facts / stats. Further there are 5 glossary terms they should fill in with their own words and 3 thought provoking questions (ie: critical thinking questions) they must answer. Finally, each template has 3 alternative thought provoking questions for younger students and 3 other alternative harder questions to extend high flying or older students. Giving you a total of 9 possible thought provoking questions that could be used with students to enhance their research and critical thinking.
This template is some of my best work and I am proud to share it with you.

Planetary rings can be made of ice, rock, dirt and dust. They are incredibly thin (usually) even more than you might expect. They show up in our Solar System only on the gas giant, but could arise in many different ways and places on various planets in our galaxy, they are fascinating as they only last for millions of years at a time, such a temporary phenomenon. Still, they are awesome and worth learning about, so here’s a learning resource to help with this topic.

The Sun provides us with heat, light and most of the energy we get here on Earth, but it has layers of complexity as well as physical layers too. The Sun is a huge ball of plasma and is insanely hot beneath the surface, while the surface is only a mild 5000 degrees centigrade. Since it is so very important to life on Earth, it feels worth learning about with this teaching resource.

Studying magnets and maglev trains is crucial due to their wide-ranging impact on technology and transportation. Magnets are essential in applications like medical imaging and renewable energy, while maglev trains promise faster, smoother, and more eco-friendly travel by reducing friction with magnetic forces. This research drives advances in infrastructure and materials science, offering innovative solutions for urban mobility and sustainability.
This research project template provides the perfect grab and go, print and provide resource that can supplement lessons. It is an project template with questions to check comprehension and inspire scientific thinking. It gives a rich and supportive framework that can be tweaked as needed for students to support differentiation.
Each research project template includes space for a one paragraph summary (that may or may not link to the 2 page science article also available on this topic). Students should produce a mathematical connection, an engineering / technology connection, 2 interesting facts / stats. Further there are 5 glossary terms they should fill in with their own words and 3 thought provoking questions (ie: critical thinking questions) they must answer. Finally, each template has 3 alternative thought provoking questions for younger students and 3 other alternative harder questions to extend high flying or older students. Giving you a total of 9 possible thought provoking questions that could be used with students to enhance their research and critical thinking.
This template is some of my best work and I am proud to share it with you.
WHY / WHEN TO USE:
Useful for substitute (sub) teaching

This IB DP Physics sub-topic material covers all key knowledge needed for a given sub-topic. This sub-unit is all about Greenhouse gases in the IB DP. These materials are aligned to the 2023 syllabus onwards. They are developed by an IB DP Physics teacher who also knew the previous 2016 syllabus as well. While perhaps not the flashiest format, they are consistent and use Microsoft software and PDFs which is readily accessible to almost anyone. They contain Teacher made graphics which show the exact concept to be taught or question to be asked and are all original to The Teaching Astrophysicist.
WHY / WHEN TO USE:
Helps with revision on a topic
The base for covering relevant teacher materials
Great for initial learning and practice
Memorization of key concept and knowledge
WHAT’S INCLUDED:
A set of physics flashcards - word doc and PDF
A set of physics flashcards - Powerpoint
2 detailed long response questions - DP style - word doc and PDF - both with and without answers (ie: Teacher version and student version)
