Worksheet where students calculate the mean of a set of data, then apply skills to a scientific context. Students are given an experiment and then asked to identify variables, calculate averages of the data, plot a graph and interpret the experiment. Suitable for KS3 classes.
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.
Summary sheet for students to read and practice Chi Squared, Chi Squared GOF, and T-testing for AISL Maths. Instructions for T-inspire graphical calculator on the sheet.
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.
Worksheet suitable for KS3 or low ability KS4 on the structure of the atom, charge and static electricity. Questions structured to get pupils to explain static phenomena.
KS4 resource for practicing mass and weight calculations, differentiated with extension activities for G&T. Perfect homework to assess understanding from lesson.
Simple velocity time graphs where pupils practice reading graphs, calculating gradients and distance travelled by finding the area under a graph. Accompanying power point allows you to go through with pupils after activity.
A sheet which helps students learn to construct ray diagrams: goes through the steps to draw rays for convex and concave lenses, then provides a guide as to describing the image.
Worksheet for students watching the group 1 metal demonstration: assumes prior knowledge of electron confguration. Activities include word and symbol equations for reactions and explaining the reactivity series of group 1 metals with reference to electron configuation.
Worksheet to be printed 2 to a side of A4; 4 simple questions for pupils to practice and demonstrate understanding of kinetic energy. Easy to assess and show progress.
Worksheet to accompany a computer room lesson / to complete as homework. Pupils create circuits using an online simulation, then measure P.D and current to identify circuit rules for themselves. Questions at the bottom test what they have learnt. A very good alternative to tricky (and often faulty) electricity practical work, or for a revision lesson.
Planning sheet for students to carry out before, during and after an experiment to test solubility of sugar in water (can be adapted for your class). Contains work on scientific method, graph plotting and data collection.
Has worked extremely well with KS3 and lower KS4 groups
Calculation worksheet, with solutions, practicing calculations of frequencies and speeds for the doppler effect; Suitable for Y12 and 13 students who need practice with the equation. Differentiated by outcome, worksheet becomes harder. Extension questions near the end applying Doppler Effect to red and blueshift with light.
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.
Full set of notes for students (KS4) to read and extract information on, then fill in online worksheet.
Covers DNA structure, genes, alleles, inheritance and Punnett Squares.
Ideal for remote teaching.
Worksheet can be set up so that students email answers to you (must make an account on website) to check completion.
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.
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.
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.
Worksheet for KS4 students (middle to high ability), where students can practice rearranging and using the equation V = E/Q, as well as reinforce Q=It which should have been taught previously. Questions become progressively harder and begin to link in other skills. Solutions are included on a separate sheet for pupils to mark afterwards.
