Designed for GCSE Physics students, this card sort is a matching activity for types of radiation and their properties. There are 3 cards for alpha, beta and gamma radiation with 21 property cards (an additional 4 cards for lower ability students). This can be used as a starter, plenary or within the lesson as a teaching tool. It could also be used as a revision exercise. The full set could be used with small groups or individuals. In addition, the second PowerPoint contains instructions and tables (blank and with answers) which could help guide students, or allow them to use the cards independently. The Word document contains blank version of both tables which students can complete as an additional exercise.

These resources are ideal for allowing students to test their knowledge of the frequency/wavelength of photons absorbed/emitted by electrons as they transition between energy levels. I printed the energy level diagrams on card and gave each pair a set. With the correct answers, I wrote a letter on the back of each card which would make a Physics term or terms (e.g. Doppler & Young). Incorrect answers had random letters written on the back, then all coloured cards were stuck in various locations around the room, to make a treasure hunt. For my Year 13 AS Physics students (medium to high ability) this activity took 15-20 minutes and was great for revision. The Word document includes instructions which can be given to the pairs/groups with their energy level diagram cards.

These resources are ideal for allowing students to test their knowledge of total resistance in series and parallel circuits. I printed the network diagrams on card and gave each pair a set. With the correct answers, I wrote a letter on the back of each card which would make a Physics term or terms (e.g. longitudinal). Incorrect answers had random letters written on the back, then all coloured cards were stuck in various locations around the room, to make a treasure hunt. For my Year 12 GCSE students (medium to high ability) this activity took 10-15 minutes and was great for revision. The Word document includes instructions which can be given to the pairs/groups with their network diagram cards.

Designed for Key Stage 3 Physics, these presentations cover investigations into current and voltage, conductors and insulators.

Designed for Key Stage 3 Physics students, this presentation discusses the differences between series and parallel circuits, uses the analogy of a supermarket lorry delivering stock to explain voltage and an opportunity for students to investigate current in series and parallel.

PowerPoint presentation and worksheet introducing current electricity in series and parallel circuits, how current and voltage are measured in each, along with a recap of circuit symbols.

Designed for GCSE students studying Electrostatics in Physics, these two resources include explanations of how static electricity occurs, some simple experiments to demonstrate static electricity in action and discussion on the dangers of statics. The worksheet of questions includes a mark scheme.

Designed for GCSE Physics, these dominoes contain key terms in Nuclear Physics and can be used for a starter, plenary or as part of a revision exercise. Ideal for small groups or individual students. 4 differently coloured sets of 24 dominoes for easy sorting at the end of the day!

Designed for GCSE Physics students, this card sort is a matching activity for combinations of resistors. Cards contain 24 different combinations of resistors in series and parallel for students to match up with the correct answers. This can be used as a starter, plenary or within the lesson itself as an alternative, or introduction to calculations involving resistors. The full set could be used with small groups, or a set could be split with a smaller number of cards available for individual students. There is also the opportunity to differentiate for higher and lower ability students.

Designed for CCEA’s A Level Physics specification, these hexagons are a great tool for revision purposes, as a starter or plenary, a group or individual exercise and can be tailored to suit the students and content. Topics include: Gravitational fields Magnetic fields Electric fields & capacitors Fundamental particles Particle accelerators Over 90 hexagons included with a few extra blanks for students/teachers to add their own ideas.

Designed for CCEA’s GCSE Science specifications, these hexagons are a great tool for revision purposes, as a starter or plenary, a group or individual exercise and can be tailored to suit the students and content. Topics include geocentric & heliocentric models, the solar system and Universe, stars, satellites and earthquakes. Over 50 hexagons included with a few extra blanks for students/teachers to add their own ideas.

Designed for use with Key Stage 4, this activity includes over 50 hexagons on nuclear physics / radioactivity including the three types, their uses, detection, fission & fusion and background radiation. There are also some blank hexagons for use by staff or students. This activity is great for both individual students and groups to revise a topic, as a plenary to introduce a topic and assess current knowledge or as a method for structuring extended answers. It allows students to not only recall information, but also to see links within the topic.

Designed for use with Key Stage 3 and Key Stage 4, this activity includes over 50 hexagons on waves, their properties, the electromagnetic spectrum and its uses and dangers. There are also some blank hexagons for use by staff or students. This activity is great for both individual students and groups to revise a topic, as a plenary to introduce a topic and assess current knowledge or as a method for structuring extended answers. It allows students to not only recall information, but also to see links within the topic.

Designed for Key Stage 3 and 4 Physics this worksheet and accompanying PowerPoint presentation introduce key terms wavelength and amplitude, allowing for both measuring and drawing waves in the worksheet questions.

Designed for Key Stage 3 and 4 Physics students, this worksheet includes results for an experiment to investigate the relationship between mass and weight. This also includes questions for plotting a graph of the results.

Designed for Key Stage 3 students in Physics and Maths, this worksheet highlights the steps for a successful calculation, along with some practice questions.

A worksheet of 4 questions on volume, designed for Key Stage 3 students studying either Maths or Physics. Worksheet contains space for calculations.

Designed for CCEA's A Level Physics specification, this worksheet of questions is designed for students to improve their graph work for data analysis and experimental analysis. Questions include: * comparing equations to the equation for a straight line y = mx + c, determining the gradient and y intercept * taking logs of equations before linking to y = mx + c * using data provided to take logs of an equation and decide upon correct axes for a graph, with a view to finding the numerical value of a constant

Designed for CCEA's A Level Physics specification this activity can be used for revision, a starter or plenary to assess learning. Taboo cards can be printed and laminated, and students can work as a class or in smaller groups. The aim of the game is for one team member to explain the key term at the top of the card, without using the listed words below, in a set time. Topics include: * Circular and simple harmonic motion * Nuclear fission and fusion * Particle accelerators and fundamental particles * Specific heat capacity and gas laws * Capacitors * Momentum and collisions * Electric and magnetic fields
