Falling and What is g?

(1)
I use this with a middle to high ability year 9 group, but could be used with low ability KS4 group. Activity that explains the key points of what is free fall, and also how we work out weight using g. I find the activity lasts around an hour or so. I am always looking to improve my resources, so please leave feedback! Thanks!
Physics teaching ideas - IMYC Interpretation Unit

Physics teaching ideas - IMYC Interpretation Unit

(0)
A set of possible physics teaching ideas for the IMYC Unit 'Interpretation'. Please note this is not a scheme of work, but a list of possible teaching ideas, and practicals for the Interpretation Unit, I have linked it to the Space and Matter topics from KS3 in the UK. If you teach, or are about to teach IMYC you are no doubt aware that there are very little teaching ideas for the sciences. I've taken what topics the National Curriculum recommend for physics, and adapted them to IMYC units.

Physics teaching ideas - IMYC Justice Unit

(0)
A set of possible physics teaching ideas for the IMYC Unit 'Justice'. Please note this is not a scheme of work, but a list of possible teaching ideas, and practicals for the Justice Unit, I have linked it to the Energy topics from KS3 in the UK. Also included are a couple of links to resources that I have made that relate to the topic, and they are free. If you teach, or are about to teach IMYC you are no doubt aware that there are very little teaching ideas for the sciences. I've taken what topics the National Curriculum recommend for physics, and adapted them to IMYC units.
