This resource is made up of a trifold brochure with many energy related questions. Give students the question brochure, tube map and “sites and station” leaflet. As a virtual tourist to London the students aim to visit as many attractions as they can. They choose a station to start at and a site that they wish to visit. For each station along the way they answer the corresponding energy related question.

For KS3 or KS4 students. Explains, in simple terms, the meaning of some of the key words that the student will come across during this topic. Clear, concise design.

A Domino Puzzle (both a pdf and tarsia file) with answers. I usually use this activity in mixed-achievement pairs and ensure that students are able to access information via textbooks etc.

A revision resource that can either be used as a game (played exactly as you would snakes and ladders, except before moving a quiz card has to be answered), or the cards can be used by themselves as a revision aid. The resource includes about 100 cards on thermal transfer, alternating current, change of state (SEN) and one on mixtures. Please consider buying this in a bundle that will include many other other resources for very little extra outlay.

A crossword for the new AQA specification with answers attached. Words and Clues: components Parts of an electrical circuit current Flow of electrical charge diode Type of non-ohmic conductor DC Current that moves in one direction electrons Negatively charged particles fuse Can break the circuit. Safety first! Ohms Law that links current and p.d. Oscilloscope Shows an electrical wave Parallel Not series Amps The unit for measuring current Volts The unit for measuring voltage LED Light Emitting Diode LDR Light Dependent Resistor resistance Measured in ohms ammeter Equipment used to measure current voltmeter Should always be in parallel

This is resource is specifically designed for lower achievers. It focuses on the basic concepts needed for the Generating Electrical Energy topics and uses simplified definitions. It is made up of a 24 question and answer domino activity and the solution. I have also included the questions and answers in a table form if you would like students to peer assess.

This activity includes a card sort and writing frame that focuses on the advantages and disadvantages of Nuclear Power and Biofuels. It summarises the knowledge by way of a writing frame and short evaluation.

Suitable for SEN students and those struggling scientist. This resource is made up of a puzzle and questions relating to Energy Transfers. There is also a task asking students to design a rollercoaster taking into account the energy transfers needed to make it more thrilling.

This resource is a puzzle that needs to be cut out and rearranged to make sense of the text. It forces students to engage with what they have learned in a kinaesthetic way. Once completed students should be better equipped to do simple efficiency calculations.

The resource is differentiated and includes questions, calculation, and investigation write up questions.

Suitable for foundation students, or those who need extra support with key words and definitions. The resources consists of a 2 page keywords list (shown in image), a crossword with answers, and a support crossword with some of the letters filled in. I've tried to keep the descriptions of the words as simple as possible without loosing their precise meaning and have included images to help students remember.

Objective: To recall and understand key terms Running Time: 30 minutes The activity consists of 2 sheets one for standard/higher demand and the other for lower demand. Students match key words with definitions or for higher tier, students write their own definitions. This can be stretched by asking students to link the concepts.

6 Problems with answers. Students need to show the relevant calculations. This is an excellent activity for students who struggle with the kinetic energy equation and gives them the opportunity to figure out for themselves where they went wrong. Remember that you make a difference every day

The resource focuses on understanding how to calculate energy transferred/work done. (I have included an example completed by one of my students for ease of reference). Included are 2 versions, one where students are given the answers and have to show their calculations, the other where they have to work out the answers for themselves. Personally I find that giving them the answers helps them to unpick their own mistakes rather than being told where they went wrong. The resource is designed to develop these problem solving skills through math. Differentiated questions - Q1 - 4 and Q9-12 are suitable for middle/low attainers. The activity is best done after a teacher explanation, or with suitable textbooks. Running time is approximately 40mins to an hour.

This resource can be used as an aid for SEN students. The puzzle reinforces the learning.

Three activities to help with Potential Difference and Voltage. The Suduko puzzle really gets them thinking so I always have them work in pairs.
