My lessons are comprehensive, well organised and promote high levels of pupil engagement. They contain a high number of challenge tasks that are built into the lesson resources to stretch even the most able.
I have also started an Instagram flash card account that pupils can follow for physics revision as they scroll. The account is called physicsflash

Revision resource for the Motion and Energy topics for GCSE EDEXCEL Physics - for combined and triple science.
This resource includes:
A challenge grid that contains colour-coded tasks relating to the C/SP1 and C/SP3 content in the order that it is taught - pupils get higher score for tasks that are chronologically further back. This can be used multiple times throughout the year and pupils can aim to improve their score!
A picture/animation prompt activity where pupils explain the significance of each one and why they are important to the topics.
Answer slides for both are included - I have tried to keep the answers concise so as not to take up more than one slide for each activity. Pupils may end up with more detail!
I have included a slightly easier version of the challenge grid on the last 2 slides of the presentation for lower ability classes as an option.
See my shop for the full paper 1 revision resource ‘Physics EDEXCEL Paper 1 revision - retrieval practice activities for triple & combined’ and for full lesson resources for GCSE EDEXCEL Physics triple science and combined science physics lessons.

This resource covers maths skills required for Physics GCSE exam questions (combined science physics also). It is a power point with over 70 slides that include; teaching the required skills, practice tasks and selected past exam questions embedded (from EDEXCEL but could be used for any exam board as practice). It is organised in an order that flows from one skill to another with action buttons that take you directly to each skill and home buttons so you can easily return to the home slide.
This resource can be used at the start of the GCSE course (by providing pupils with a copy of the equation sheet) or as revision before the exam when pupils should know the required equations. This cannot be done in 1 lesson and could be spread over a number of lessons or dipped into when a skill is required!
Much of this is relevant to Biology and Chemistry also.
Skills covered are:
Standard index units
Significant figures
Converting units
Equations - Substitution
Equations - rearranging
Standard form
Percentage and efficiency
Ratios
Unfamiliar Equations
Graph interpretation
Gradients
