Current in Series and Parallel Circuits - Classroom, Distance and Blended Learning for KS3
The two packs in this resource allow the same lesson to be taught to students whether they are in a classroom or distance learning at home. It facilitates blended learning and provides equality of opportunity for vulnerable students who are unable to attend school due to Covid-19.
The classroom resource consists of an animated 11 slide PowerPoint and 14 varied and exciting printables including a foldable, cut-and-stick and progress check. The one-page flowchart lesson plan shows where choices can be made between the printables so that the teacher can select the activities to suit the exact needs of their class.
The distance learning pack consists of a 35 slide animated PowerPoint which, not only teaches the science but also how to gain maximum benefit from distance learning. The PowerPoint has been designed to replace the teacher by providing structure, sequence, knowledge and answers. Additional worksheets, cut-outs, foldable and progress check provide a familiar medium for students to develop and test their knowledge, continue to develop their literacy skills and use their creativity to organise their learning and assess their progress. These can be printed off by the student or provided by school. There is also a short digital test/homework which can be returned to the teacher.
The practical, whether real time in the classroom of simulated for distance learning, takes the student through planning, designing a table and drawing conclusions from a given set of typical results.
Objective
To know the units for and how to measure current.
To know that current is the same throughout a series circuit.
To know that if lamps are identical in a parallel circuit, the same current will flow through each.
To know that, in a parallel circuit, the current in all the branches in a parallel circuit adds up to the current in the main part of the circuit.
To be able to draw circuit diagrams from description.
To be able to design results tables.

Objective
To know that an electric current is a flow of electrons which pick up energy from the battery.
To know that, as batteries are added to a circuit, voltage increases and the lamp gets brighter.
To be able to make a prediction and design an experiment and results table to investigate the relationship between the number of batteries and voltage.
To be able to draw a bar graph.
To be able to calculate the output of n number of batteries from known numbers of batteries, voltages and currents.

Mass is the amount of material in a body, is measured in kilograms (Kg) and is independent of position.
Weight is the effect of gravity pulling on a mass.
Units for gravitational field strength are N/Kg.
Applying W = m x g to calculate weight of a body on Earth, the Moon and Jupiter.

Christmas trivia
geography
history
nature
science
music
astrology
astronomy
flags of the world

Forces - What is Friction?- Distance Learning and Homeschool for KS3
This is an action-packed distance learning or home school explanation of the cause and effects of friction including an investigation into the relationship between the force needed to move a shoe over different types of surface and a step – by step guide to the perfect bar graph. Examples of useful friction in terms of grip and non-useful friction in terms of decreased speed and heat production are considered.
This resource has been designed so that the animated PowerPoint replaces the teacher by providing structure, sequence, knowledge and answers. The worksheets, cut-outs, foldable and progress check provide a familiar medium for students to develop and test their knowledge, continue to develop their literacy skills and use their creativity to organise their learning and assess their progress.
