Complete lesson on Refraction with key content from AQA Physics. Starter uses two simple demo's to show refraction with fun 'tricks' The main uses the refraction experiment with a clear guide on method, can also use prism experiment to show refraction of white light into different colours for discussion. Key relationships of different density substances explained and also refraction itself explained with visuals. Challenge task on how corrective lenses work Plenary uses simple exam style question.

GCSE Physics P2 lesson on AC & DC current including key content from AQA Physics exam specification. Starter uses gets pupils to try and categorise different electrical devices, this leads to the discussion of batteries and plugs. Key definitions and explanations are given for a.c and d.c current with suggested modelling activity for a.c. and d.c currents. Relevant wave properties are recapped and this allows for easier transition to using oscilloscope traces. A link to a great online simulator is given to help show a.c and d.c current flow on an oscilloscope (no experiment set-up needed) and also a video of this is posted on youtube for use: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HEkPVViFa2Y AC is focused on for main circuit supply and related to lighting and for peak voltages and frequency calculation. Summary questions included. More P2 to come.
