GCSE Physics equations test sheet

(1)
This resource accompanies my FREE download of the Physics equations needed for the new GCSE (2016) for Physics. It is a blanked out version for students to complete. This is a great way for students to test, recall and revise the equations that they need to know. It can be used as a look, cover, write, check activity with the Physics equation sheet.

GCSE Physics Parallel Circuits lesson plan and presentation

(0)
A complete lesson plan and PPT presentation about parallel circuits for new GCSE(2016). Covers all the main topics, measuring current and voltage, calculating resistance and understanding why resistance in a parallel circuit decreases the more branches there are.
Physics Taboo

Physics Taboo

(0)
A set of game cards for Taboo covering the basic topics of Physics: Energy, Waves, Origins of the Universe, Energy transfers, Conduction, Convection, Radiation. Students play in teams of two. One person picks up a card and has to describe the phrase in the top box without using any of the words on the card. Their team mate has to guess it to win. The opposing two members of the four can jump in and steal the card by guessing correctly. This is an ideal revision activity as it forces the students to describe the topic without using key words. This increases understanding.

GCSE Physics - Elastic Potential Energy worksheets

(0)
A pair of scaffolded worksheets that take students through calculating the force applies to a spring, the elastic potential energy stored in a spring and then rearranging the equation to calculate spring constant or extension. The answer sheets are also included with rearranged equations and units. This accompanies the work on Hooke's Law which can also be downloaded from my web shop Grade Gain.

GCSE Physics Required practical 4c - Resistance of a diode

(0)
This has been produced as an extract of the AQA required practical document. It is designed to be printed two pages to a page and flip on short edge to form a booklet that students can then stick in their books. This is for required practical 4 - Resistance. The content is from AQA and the layout and formatting is my own. AQA may change the contents of their practical this is correct as of 07-07-2016. I have split it into 3 different practicals as that is how I prefer to teach it. They are 4a, 4b and 4c.
