A detailed lesson plan and presentation covering the ideas of changes of state and internal energy. It takes the students through the concepts of the different changes of state: melting freezing evaporating/boiling sublimation It also covers the concept of internal energy for a heating curve for ice to steam.

I have reworked the required practical from AQA as using cells did not provide sufficient variability or control for collecting data on a diode. This practical sheet provides detailed instructions of how to set up the circuit and gather the data including how to do this using LEDs instead of a diode.

A complete lesson plan and presentation for the lesson on density for the new GCSE Physics. This includes a method sheet and results tables for Required Practical 5 - Density of regular, irregular and liquids. Also a PPT as well as the lesson plan. Thanks for looking.

A detailed lesson plan and PPT presentation to introduce particle models and density to GCSE Physics students. There are a sequence of demos detailed in here for looking at conservation of mass and changes of state and density along with a worksheet of calculations for students to complete to practice using the density equation. Answers included! Please remember to review. Thanks.

A differentiated worksheet for practicing density calculations. It starts off with using the formula in its standard form then progresses to rearranging the formula. All data is real data. This is designed for the new GCSE in Physics. Also included in the download are the worked answers!

A set of Pictionary cards for Y9 chemistry. Covers topics such as burning, carbon dioxide, mass. A fun starter activity to get students thinking about the keywords we use in science. Can easily be expanded using the file as a template as well.

A template for creating your own taboo game. All you have to do is fill in the topics on the cards and print them out. Students then describe the item at the top of the cards without using any of the words on the card.

This is a handy template for creating Tarsia Puzzles. They are triangular pieces that form a hexagon when connected up correctly. Write words/definitions on each piece so that they pair up, cut up the pieces and then students have to put the puzzle back together based on their knowledge. This does not do it for you automatically. This is a great tool for testing knowledge on a wide range of topics.

A detailed lesson plan and presentation about Electric fields. It takes the student through looking at magnetism as a non-contact force and then applying this knowledge to electrostatics whilst looking at similarities. They then progress to drawing field diagrams and writing explanations of electrostatic repulsion and the triboelectric effect. Thanks for looking. Don't forget to review if you buy!

A lesson plan and presentation introducing static electricity and the triboelectric effect. There are links to a couple of you tube videos that emphasise the points being made. This lesson also details a practical that students can do to experience the triboelectric effect for themselves.

Lesson plan, PPT presentation and worksheet for the National Grid. This references two videos that are available on you tube, linked from the presentation. The worksheet has questions for the students to answer whilst they are watching the videos. You will also need a National Grid demo model setup to talk through the structure and demonstrate the effect of the transformers.

A complete lesson plan, presentation and worksheets, including answers, for the subject of Electrical Power. It covers the formulae P=IV and P=I^2R. The worksheets are structured to develop the skills of the students in the use of the formulae starting off with scaffolded examples working through to rearranging the formulae. The worksheets are available separately from bit.ly/TESncrumpton

A scaffolded worksheet allowing students to access the equation P=I^2R. They start by calculating the power and move onto rearranging the formula to calculate resistance. They end up having to use the square root to calculate current. All these are set in the context of real life.

A structured worksheet to take students through using the GCSE Physics equations P=VI. It starts off with 5 questions using it in the P=VI format then there are 4 further questions using the formula in a rearranged format. The final question is a tough one that requires linking knowledge from other formula, notably E=VQ and Q=It, both of which they need to know.

A complete lesson plan, PPT and worksheets with answers for teaching about Energy in Physics. Covers the two equations E=QV and E=Pt builds on concepts of charge, potential difference, power and time. Worksheets are scaffolded to help students practice completing calculations. The worksheets are available separately as well as being included here.

A scaffolded worksheet of 10 questions to help students practice using E=QV. This worksheet takes them through how to lay out calculations and rearrange them using the triangle method. There is also a tricky question at the end that links back to prior learning using Q=It as well. Answers included!

A differentiated resource leading students through the usage of E = Pt Energy, Power and Time calculations. This gives students an opportunity to reinforce their learning of the equation and chance to practice completing questions. Ten questions, scaffolded to start with then gradually allowing them to work on their own. It also involves some conversion of units on the harder questions. Complete with all the answers.

A fully resourced and differentiated lesson plan, presentation and worksheets for students to discover the Timeline of the universe. The lesson begins with students ranking celestial objects by size and then moves through speed of light, and size of universe to a group activity Apprentice style for them to draw a one year timeline of the universe. Great opportunity for group work and Building Learning Power. Groups 1 and 5 are for MA and LA students Group 2 can be duplicated for as many middle ability groups as necessary. Please remember to review. Thanks ;-)

Complete lesson plan and presentation for GCSE Physics pendula. This introduces the concept of increasing length, mass and drop height and the effect on period. Calculations involving period and frequency are included. It references the standard AQA practical for pendula wherre students investigate the effect of increasing the length, mas or drop height of the pendulum to see what effect it has on period.
