A complete lesson covering sections 5.5.3 d-o of the OCR Physics specification- the big bang theory, the cosmological principle, the Doppler effect and red shift. The lesson starts by covering the Doppler effect in sound and how this also applies to red shift in light. It the covers how this and CMBR act as evidence for the origins of the universe in the big bang. It covers the Hubble constant, how its value is not exact and how it can be sued to estimate the age of the universe. The lesson closes by looking at the events immediately following the big bang and how the universe is believed to have changed.

A complete lesson covering sections 5.4.3 and 5.4.4 of the OCR Physics specification- gravitational potential and planetary motion. The lesson starts by introducing gravitational potential including the various calculations. It then looks at GPE and how this can be calculated covering the fact that at GCSE students calculated changes in GPE rather than absolute values which are negative. It then looks at changes in gravitational potential and how these can be determined mathematically and graphically. The lesson then moves onto escape velocity and satellites before introducing Kepler’s three laws. The lesson includes lots of independent student tasks including practicing deriving the planetary motion equations.

It then looks at calculating entropy changes.It the looks at Gibbs free energy and how this can be calculated including the difference between endothermic and exothermic reactions. The lesson follows an explicit instruction model with lots of opportunities for i do, we do, you do All answers included I am to reduce photocopying so all activities are within the PPT (30 slides in total)

A complete lesson covering section 5.2.1 c and d of the OCR Chemistry specification- enthalpies of solution. The lesson starts by covering the difference between the first and subsequent electron affinities. It then moves to showing how lattice enthalpies can be used to support calculating enthalpies of solution. It shows his these values can be calculated using practical means as well as theoretically. It closes by looking at the difference between exothermic and endothermic reactions. The lesson follows the explicit instruction model with opportunities for I do, we do and you do All answers are provided. I aim to reduce photocopying so all activities are within the PPT (35 slides in total)

A complete lesson covering section 5.2.1 b and e of the OCR Chemistry specification- Born-Haber cycles. The lesson covers the construction of Born Haber cycles, building upon the study of Hess’ law from year 12.
