Forces - Speed - 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 students who are unable to attend school.
The classroom resource consists of an animated 21- slide PowerPoint and 15 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 60- 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. A shortened photocopiable PDF of the PowerPoint is provided to circulate to those pupils without computers.
What’s Covered
Choosing the appropriate units for distance, time and speed.
Use of the formula speed = distance/time.
Rearrangement of the formula (easily left out if required)
Planning an experiment to find speed.
Designing a table

What’s Covered
The shadow of a point source only has an umbra but the shadow of a large point source has an umbra and a penumbra.
If the light source moves closer to the object, the shadow gets bigger.
If the object moves closer to the screen, the shadow gets smaller .
A lunar eclipse happens when the Earth stops all, or some, of the Sun’s light from reaching the Moon.
The Moon orbits the Earth once every 29.5 days.
When the entire moon passes through the Earths penumbra it appears slightly darker (penumbral eclipse).
If only part of the moon passes through the Earth’s umbra it is a partial eclipse.
A solar eclipse happens when the Moon stops all, or some, of the Sun’s light from reaching the Earth
A person on Earth, standing in the Moon’s umbra will see a total solar eclipse.
A person on Earth, standing in the Moon’s penumbra will see a partial solar eclipse.
When the Moon is at its furthest point from Earth, it no longer covers the whole surface of the Sun and an annular eclipse is seen from the umbra.
The Moon’s orbit is angled relative to the Earth so the Sun, Earth and Moon are not often in the alignment needed for a lunar Eclipse to occur.
When the entire moon passes through the Earths umbra it appears red due to refracted red light (total or umbral eclipse).

Air Resistance and Friction Explained KS3
A comprehensive and enjoyable explanation of the causes and effects of air resistance and friction with animated PowerPoints which:
demonstrate air resistance as resulting from collisions between the front of an object and air particles;
demonstrate how friction is caused by collisions between “bumps” in sliding surfaces and slows them down and produces heat;
demonstrate why streamlined bodies reduce air resistance to travel faster;
provide a visual explanation of the relationship between acceleration due to gravity, sir resistance, steady speed and why parachutes work.
The three practicals investigate:
the relationship between the force needed to move a shoe over different types of surface.
the relationship between surface area of a parachute and air resistance
do streamlined objects travel faster in water?
What’s Covered
Friction is a force which opposes motion and is measured in newtons (N).
Friction increases with the roughness of the surface.
Friction is caused by collisions between “bumps”, sometimes microscopic, as surfaces slide over each other.
Collisions slow things down and produce heat.
How lubricants reduce friction
Air resistance results from collisions between the front of an object and air particles.
Steady speed.
Air resistance wastes energy and slows moving objects

Force, Weight & Mass KS3
A comprehensive and enjoyable introduction to forces and an explanation of the relationship between mass and weight.
What’s Covered
Force is a pull or a push with examples.
Arrows indicate the direction of force.
Contact and non-contact forces explained and examples
Forces can change an objects speed, direction or shape
The Newton and newtonmeter.
Real-life examples of forces.
All objects attract each other and that the attraction force depends on the size of the object.
The attraction force of planets is called gravity which acts towards the centre.
Gravity hold Earth’s atmosphere in place.
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.
Practical
The first simple practical gives pupils experience in reading scales as they find the weight of their pencil case and other items provided by the teacher. (selection of different objects and different size newtonmeters needed)
The second practical introduces an element of fun and competition by using a bathroom scales calibrated in Newtons (an ordinary bathroom scales can be used but multiply the reading in kilograms by 10) to find the person with the strongest grip in the class (photograph of how to do this shown on the PowerPoint)

The games are closely related to the topic content and reinforces learning. It is enjoyable and suitable for all abilities

What’s Covered
The order of the seven colours of the spectrum
Dispersion is the separation of white light into the seven different colors of the spectrum.
During dispersion, red light is refracted the least and violet light the most.
Dispersion is caused by the fact that each colour of light travels at a different speed in glass.
Red, green and blue are primary light colors.
Magenta, cyan and yellow are secondary light colors.
Mixing two primary light colours gives a secondary light color.
Mixing the three primary light colors gives white light.
An object only reflects light the same color as itself and absorbs all the others
Work out the color an object appears in different light color
