GCSE Physics flipped learning/revision booklet

(1)
This booklet fits the new AQA Combined and Separate Science Physics courses. This booklet is intended to be used as a flipped learning activity before the start of each topic, but can also be used as a independent revision booklet. See instructions on the front: Before the topic • Use your revision guide to answer the 10 comprehension questions covering the basics relating to that topic. • The aim is that you cover these beforehand so that we can spend lesson time on application of knowledge. • All information can be found on the revision guide pages that are referenced for each topic. After the topic • Look back over your original answers and add to them using purple pen. Extension Each topic will have an extension question that requires you to apply your knowledge of the basics. You can attempt this before or after the topic. The revision guide page references are for the Collins AQA guides.

10 Resources
This is a series of 10 projects (all of which can be found individually in my shop) to cover all KS3 content before beginning GCSE. It is intended to take 1 term, with each project taking 4 to 6 lessons. This fits with schools wishing to start GCSE part way through Y9. The projects could also be used to consolidate or support throughout KS3 and GCSE depending of the needs of the groups.

House insulation project

(4)
Mini-project that aims to consolidate knowledge from P.1.1.1 to P1.1.4 (convection, conduction, heat transfer, heating and insulation). Students to design and make their own model of an insulated house. Can get students to bring their own materials or provide them (e.g. cardboard boxes, tinfoil etc.) Takes 2 to 3 lessons. Winner decided by setting up a thermometer in the house and using a heat source, a light bulb that gives off a lot of heat works best, and then seeing which house reaches the highest internal temperature.
