Light - Lenses Plus the Eye, Pinhole Camera & Camera - Find the Pair Game KS3
This is an engaging and enjoyable memory game on lenses including the eye, the pinhole camera and the camera. Pupils work in teams of three or four. Each team lays out their 42 cards face down in a square and take it in turn to turn over two cards. If the cards are a question and its correct answer, the pupil keeps the pair. If they are not a match they are turned face down and the next pupil gets a turn. This process continues until all cards are matched and the winner is the pupil with the most pairs.
If a team member thinks that the selectors pair is not a correct match, they can challenge.
Pupils are encouraged to check their books for the correct answer but the teacher also has a quick-check answer sheet. If the challenge is correct, the challenger keeps the pair.

Rules of the Game
Each player selects seven dominos from the top of the face-down pile and holds them in their hand like playing cards.
The player whose surname begins with a letter closest to the letter A starts and play proceed in a clockwise direction.
Dominos can be matched exactly, or a name can be matched with a symbol or descriptions, sketches and circuit diagrams can be matched.
If a player thinks a match is wrong, they can challenge. If the challenger is correct, they give a card from their own hand to the challenged player. If the challenged player is correct, they give a card from their hand to the challenger. Pupils are encouraged to check their books for the correct answer and consult their teacher if a consensus is not reached.
If a player cannot play a domino, they pick up from the face down pile and can play if possible or add it to their hand.

Light - Refraction Explained - Distance Learning and Homeschool for KS3
This is an action-packed distance learning or home school introduction to refraction.
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.
The simulated practical shows how measurements for the angles of incidence and reflection when light is refracted through a glass block are obtained and provides a set of results for the students to draw a conclusion.
What’s Covered
The more dense the medium the slower the speed of light.
When light travels from a less dense medium to a more dense medium it is bent towards the normal.
When light travels from a more dense medium to a less dense medium it is bent away from the normal.
Light hitting a boundary at 900 is not refracted.
Light is not refracted at a curved boundary.
Complete ray diagrams showing refraction.
Design an experiment and results table to investigate refraction through a semi - circular glass block
Why lightning is seen before thunder is heard when a cloud discharges.
Real and apparent depth.

Preparation
Use double-sided printing to copy 1 set per group of 4 pupils.
Sheets could be laminated to enable year-on-year use.
Cut sheets into cards.
Prior Knowledge Required
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

KS3 Forces Enquiry/Investigation
The A to Z of an enquiry. This is a fully differentiated and resourced enquiry/investigation into how the surface affects the amount of friction. It is suitable for UK levels 3 to 5 and some elements will start more able pupils thinking about some aspects of level 6 work. It consists of a 27 - slide slideshow and systematically takes the pupils through the stages of planning, developing and reflecting. The whole slideshow contains enough material for 3 to 4, one hour lessons depending on ability. The whole slideshow need not be covered and has been designed so that it is easy to select any sections that are required. It has also been designed so that there are challenging questions for more able pupils but clicking to the next slide provides support for those who need it. Many of the slides are animated.
The resource has been designed to be sufficiently versatile so as to be suitable as not only as an introduction to enquiry/investigation at secondary level but also for those pupils starting upon the transition from level 5 to level 6. It is full of tips on how to tackle the various parts of an enquiry which pupils will find beneficial for those enquiries they tackle in the future and for coping with enquiry-type questions in examinations.
The lessons are easy to follow, enjoyable and easy to teach.
Apparatus needed per group is a newtonmeter and a 1Kg mass. I suggest you have an idea of the 5 surfaces to be used in advance and have a selection of different size newtonmeters available. I use the lab floor, the bench, the carpet in the corridor, a wooden dissection board and a Perspex safety screen. Groups of 3 or 4 are ideal.
Content
Definitions of independent, dependent and control variable, fair test and reliability.
The problem posed is “Does surface affect the amount of friction”.
Planning the enquiry with a worksheet to accompany which includes peer assessment and pupil response to assessment.
Identification of variables
Writing a prediction
Writing success criteria
Designing a table
What is an anomalous result and how to recognise it.
Improvements
Selection of the correct type of graph
How to draw the perfect bar graph (animated)
Reliability and bias
Reflecting on success criteria and learning strategies.
I hope your classes enjoy this and do as well as mine.
