Plotting Line Graphs

(1)
Students practise plotting line graphs of data: task builds slowly from plotting points and drawing best fit lines, to constructing scales and using appropriate labels on axes. Final page tests graph interpretation, and question 3 can be adapted to suit your syllabus and your area. Has worked extremely well with KS3 and weak KS4 pupils in maths and science lessons.
Energy Transfer Diagrams

Energy Transfer Diagrams

(1)
Worksheet for KS3 or KS4 to practice drawing energy transfer diagrams. Questions start simple and get gradually harder, and incorporate energy pathways and stores. Suitable for lower ability to support, or higher ability as lots of practice.
Writing a method: Science

Writing a method: Science

(1)
Fully scaffolded task, with extension activities, where students are supported in writing a scientific method for a practical. Gives sentence starters and highlights key words. Perfect for a homework / independent task. Chosen practical is biology but good for general science methodology and literacy skills.
Trigonometry (SOHCAHTOA) Worksheet
emma_gillard1emma_gillard1

Trigonometry (SOHCAHTOA) Worksheet

(0)
Fully differentiated worksheet going from identifying opposite, adjacent and hypotenuse on a triangle, to rearranging SOHCAHTOA to find missing sides. Each question sheet has hints on the back, and answers at the end of the ppt. Students can self select depending on their confidence, or teachers can guide pupils to identify their levels.
Terminal Velocity 6 mark question and mark scheme
emma_gillard1emma_gillard1

Terminal Velocity 6 mark question and mark scheme

(0)
KS4 scaffolded 6 mark question on terminal velocity, includes key words and sentence starters to guide pupils on structuring their answer. Perfect for Y10s doing forces who are not yet experienced at 6 mark question. Mark scheme on powerpoint slide gives pupils opportunity to peer mark work and give improvements.
Equation worksheet: Kinetic energy, GPE and energy transfers
emma_gillard1emma_gillard1

Equation worksheet: Kinetic energy, GPE and energy transfers

(0)
Fully differentiated KS4 equation grid with lots of questions about KE, GPE and energy transfers. Different questions are worth different numbers of points, pupils choose questions appropriate for their level. Good for homeworks: have to earn 15 points to pass or similar. In lessons excellent practice, includes mark scheme which can be put on board, pupils self mark then hands up to gauge number of points for each student.
Current and Charge worksheet
emma_gillard1emma_gillard1

Current and Charge worksheet

(0)
Worksheet allowing students to practice using Q=IT, rearranging and using the equation triangle. Suitable for lower ability KS4 who need a lot of practice with equations.
Distance speed time and acceleration equation grid
emma_gillard1emma_gillard1

Distance speed time and acceleration equation grid

(0)
Fully differentiated worksheet for KS4 pupils to practice using the v s t and acceleration equations. Each category on the grid is worth a different number of points, excellent for class activity or homework. Suitable for higher ability pupils but easily adaptable just by changing the questions on the grid.
Momentum and Impulse equation grid
emma_gillard1emma_gillard1

Momentum and Impulse equation grid

(0)
Fully differentiated KS4 worksheet for using momentum and impuse equations. Each level of question is worth a different number of points, pupils work at their own level. Mark scheme included, pupils can self mark and assess by asking how many points everyone in the class got.
Electricity Equations practice grid
emma_gillard1emma_gillard1

Electricity Equations practice grid

(0)
Fully differentiated KS4 grid with many questions on the different electricity equations. Each question is worth a different number of points and pupils can work at their level. Comes with challenge and extension questions. Suitable for any KS4 ability group, perfect for a homework or revision lesson.
Electricity equation grid KS4
emma_gillard1emma_gillard1

Electricity equation grid KS4

(0)
Fully differentiated grid of questions for KS4 electricity equations, harder questions are worth more points on the grid. Gets pupils to rearrange equations with the help of equation triangles, and convert units. Suitable for lower ability pupils but easily adapted.
Specific Latent Heat and SHC worksheet
emma_gillard1emma_gillard1

Specific Latent Heat and SHC worksheet

(0)
Differentiated worksheet where students have to first identify definitions of latent heats of fusion and vaporisation and SHC, then identify whether energy will be given out or taken in in state changes. Finally differentiated equation grid where students practice using initially the SLH equation, then combining with the SHC equation to calculate energy changes for more complex systems. Suitable for any ability KS4.
Power and Transformers
emma_gillard1emma_gillard1

Power and Transformers

(0)
KS4 electricity worksheet, differentiated calculations on power using P=VI, then gap-fill task regarding power transmission and step-up and step-down transformers. Heavily scaffolded, suitable for lower ability pupils.
