New GCSE AQA Physics lesson on 'Atomic model, Plum pudding and Bohr's model of the atom ' written in line with new AQA Physics specification. Lesson Objectives: 1) Explain how and why ideas in Science change over time. 2) Identify and explain the conclusions from the alpha scattering experiment. 3) Explain why the new evidence from the scattering experiment led to a change in the atomic model. 4) Compare and contrast the plum pudding model of the atom and the nuclear model of the atom.

New GCSE AQA Physics lesson on 'Radioactivity and Half-life ' written in line with new AQA Physics specification. Starter poses two interesting questions in relation to a continuous doubling effect linking to the mathematics of the lesson and inverse of half-life. A quick recap on isotopes and different types of radiation is provided to keep key concepts in pupils minds. The coin flip (heads or tails) activity is detailed to get students to carry out this activity and collect data to plot the results from to show a 'half-life curve'. Following the explanation of random events the pupils are given the task of recording nuclear decays in relation to video shown on youtube. This then allows a direct link to be made to a half-life graph to nuclear decay. This then leads to the review of half-life graph review questions. Learning Objectives for Half-life lesson: 1) Review what is meant by isotope and how this is radioactive. 2) Understand the ‘random’ nature of radioactive decay. 3) State and explain what is meant by ‘half-life’. 4) Determine the half-life of different isotopes using given information. The lesson is summarised with review questions on the content covered.

New GCSE Chemistry lesson on Covalent bonding Lesson starts with simple starter looking at different ways things are bonded together which allows discussion of hoe bonds vary in strength. Following a quick review goes over key content on ionic bonding. The need for atoms to become chemically stable by gaining a full outer shell of electrons is introduced with illustrations of this. Different types of bonding are contrasted with picture representations to allow for comparisons to be made. Covalent bonding is introduced by breaking down an explaining the words with key definitions behind these. Atoms numbers are reviewed and linked to electrons in outer shell. Chlorine is provided as an example of dot and cross diagram for covalent boding. Properties of covalent bonds are also reviewed. Students are prompted to draw dot and cross diagrams for a variety of key substances. Lesson Objectives: 1) Describe how covalent bonds are formed. 2) Recognise covalent compounds from their formula, name or bonding diagram. 3) Draw dot and cross diagrams/ball and stick diagrams for familiar molecules. 4) Suggest how properties vary for double covalent bonds and single covalent bonds.

New GCSE AQA Physics lesson on ’ Pressure in Liquids’ written in line with new AQA Physics specification. All questions provided with answers within power point. The lesson starts with a question on the dangers presented to deep sea divers. How liquids exert a pressure is demonstrated with a visual of a series of containers with different heights of liquid inside whilst highlighting the liquid has mass and therefore weight - this is then linked back to pressure = force/area. The importance of height in relation to pressure is further reviewed with a water bottle that has holes at different heights - the water jets shooting out is then discussed. Finally reviewing the importance of density to mass to weight and therefore pressure leads to the formation of the equation, P= ρgh - practice of the use of the equation is provided by looking at the pressure beneath the sea at different depths. The dangers of deep sea scuba diving are again discussed with the lesson knowledge gained. The lesson is concluded with a set of review question. Lesson Objectives: - Explain how a liquid exerts a pressure. - Explain how pressure exerted by a liquid can be increased. - Explain how pressure varies at different points in liquid. - Calculate the pressure in a liquid column.

New GCSE AQA Physics lesson on ’ Atmospheric Pressure’ written in line with new AQA Physics specification. All questions provided with answers within power point. (Required for GCSE Physics only Higher tier) Lesson Objectives: - Explain how upthrust acts on an object in a fluid. - Identify the key factors that contribute to upthrust of an object in a fluid. - Relate pressure in a fluid to upthrust. - Predict whether a variety of objects will float or sink.

New GCSE AQA Physics lesson on ’ Reflection and Refraction of Waves’ written in line with new AQA Physics specification. All questions provided with answers within power point.

A 5 MINUTE SEATING PLANNER in excel which also displays the pupil data. Watch demo on youtube to see planner and how to use: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4e4HN80mdbg You are able to import data from another excel spreadsheet to use as data to include in your seating plan. Coloured cells are automatically populated with pupil names and the data which you wish to display. The coloured cells can be moved to create the plan of the room and therefore the seating plan. Data fields can be filtered help produce seating plans based input variables (for example, filtered by target grade). Cells used a colour scale which can be set to the data you wish to use, for example above, at or below class average grade. This creates a teacher seating plan (data) view and a class (just names) seating plan view .

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.
