A lesson for KS3 students or low level GCSE, introduces the concept of atoms, charge, how charges can be transferred, and some of the risks associated with charged materials. Lesson comes fully planned (just follow the ppt), and includes an activity with a plasma ball (if you've got one; if not, just leave it out!). There's a link to a youtube video called electric graffiti in the ppt as well (it's 14 min long but worth it, the students always like watching it). NB: I deliberately avoided using the Van der Graaf generator, as I wanted to save it for GCSE. Learning Objectives: To recall structure of atom To describe how charges can be transferred To describe and explain the risks and precaution of using charge

A powerpoint lesson with diagrams, worked examples, and questions for AS Physics students studying OCR A.

A lesson for AS Physics students which covers density equation, pressure in solids, liquids and gases, upthrust, and archimedes principle. There are practice exam questions to check learning (with answers).

Supporting Powerpoint for OCR A. Includes notes on: dynamic vs static electricity movement of electrons and ions. conductors and insulators Conventional current vs electron flow Showing a plasma ball is optional and not on the specification but its weird and cool and the students like it. This also applies to the Van Der Graaf Generator if you have one.

A trio of DART activities for GCSE physics, but could be used with higher level earlier years.

A powerpoint which considers structure, rotation, orbital characteristics, Van-Allen belt, and distinctive lunar features, for curious, high ability students. Designed for a discussive lesson. One activity that could be done is to use a labelled photo of the moon to teach the order of the Mares, which my students enjoyed immensely.

A lesson on energy conservation for GCSE Physics. Designed for AQA 2016 but transferable to OCR , EDEXCEL. Students begin by simply naming energy forms They learn the law of energy conservation (with prompt questions) They then complete an energy carousel (or simply fill out the sheet if you like) Then they learn about wasted energy, energy units, and energy transfer diagrams. Students calculate and complete missing values. Then they learn about Sankey diagrams. To finish, they draw and interpret a Sankey diagram using given info. As always, answers are on the slides. Please leave a review.

Powerpoint/Discussive lessons on science funding and politics. Politics looks at the role of the government and their role, as well as pressure groups and their importance. Funding looks at the money and where it comes from. It considers the pros and cons of state funding for scientific pursuit, as well as the pros and cons of private sources.

Covers spec CP1 TO CP2.10 Physics Revision lesson for Motion Includes: Starter Specification statements Range of questions timed on each ppt slide. Answers included. While specific to edexcel, is transferable to OCR and AQA. Just edit the statements.

A fun and interesting lesson, which looks at mass, weight, and gravity. It comes with a data analysis starter, and includes a few videos for free (including Apollo 11 moon landing, Apollo 16 feather and hamemr, and Brian Cox in a vacuum chamber). These videos are also available on youtube if the files don’t work.

A lesson on resolving motion on an inclined plane with examples and questions to support the learning.
