These are a selection of practical investigations for KS3 Science, suitable for use with the Working Scientifically section of the 2014 syllabus. Included are guidance for each investigation, a scaffolded investigation sheet, a mark scheme and a student challenge sheet. The investigations are designed to be easily marked and leveled using criteria adapted from APP guidelines. I intended to add to these over time.

This task allows students to examine and evaluate pieces of opposing evidence, for and against Man landing on the Moon. It can be used as part of a space topic, or as a standalone lesson. It was created as an interview lesson. It will require reading the Wikipedia page on Moon landing conspiracies first (link provided in lesson plan) as this lesson generates lots of questions from students.

This was a lesson for the Radiation Carries Information part of P2 of the OCR science GCSE course. Students need to have access to the OCR Physics textbook to complete the sheet. Electromagnetic spectrum, digital signals.

Suitable for use as a starter or plenary. This is a one page diagram that the students are asked to complete. It asks the students to complete the path of a laser as it is reflected off a series of mirrors to a detector. They have to work out the angles of incidence and reflection. Requires a protractor. Can be used for AQA P1 - Waves - Reflection.

This is a worksheet that asks students to calculate wave speed, then rearrange the equation and calculate frequency and wavelength. Suitable for starter or plenary. Can be used for AQA - P1 - Waves - Measuring waves.

This is a simple worksheet that allows students to consider energy transfers. Best used as a starter or plenary.

I made this for a Year 10 group doing the Greenhouse effect as part of P2 in the OCR Science GCSE. Printed/photocopied onto on A3. Can be completed with access to textbooks or with the internet. Includes both PowerPoint slide and JPEG
