Revision sheet for students to revise:
- Converging and Diverging lenses
- Ray Diagrams
- Properties and uses of lenses
Includes answers and worked solutions
Introductory resource describing the features of the structure of the Earth. Suitable for topic 1 - Planet Earth (topic 1.3)
Includes lesson slides and worksheet.
Powerpoint slides explaining what a potential divider is, and explaining step by step how we derrive the equations for a potential divider. With an investigation suggestion for potential dividers.
Worksheet included with 4 KS5 questions on potential dividers, and mark scheme with worked solutions.
If you are teaching the life cycle in stars in GCSE/IGCSE physics, GCSE Astronomy or the astrophysics options of IB or A Level. I have embedded videos from Crash Course Astronomy, in to the the life cycle of stars diagram.
Aimed for non-specialist physics teachers (or new teachers) who are teaching GCSE physics. A guided walk-though of how to measure the specific heat capacity of different metals.
Includes teacher instruction sheet, and a student investigation sheet.
Bundle of two of my most popular displays. Each resource contains several high quality images of either features of the Solar System or the history of Manned Spaceflight or Newton's Law of Gravitation.
Students use their knowledge of Newton’s Law of Gravitation and circular motion to answer the following question:
How many times a day do astronauts on the International Space Station see the sun rise?
With worked solution.
Electricity is one of the least favourite topics non specialist physics teachers have to cover, these three resources give clear explanations on concepts students at GCSE and IGCSE need to cover, along with clear instructions on how to set up practicals!
Attached is everything you will need to teach a lesson (with a class practical or demonstration) on transformers. Using a multimeter that can measure AC voltage (available at places like Maplins), and a set of transformer coils (available from Phillip Harris) students measure the voltage across the primary and secondary coil of a transformer. Included are student instructions, guided questions, and teacher set up instructions.
PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A MULTIMETER THAT CAN MEASURE AC VOLTAGE BEFORE PURCHASING! See cover image for all equipment you will need!
Two pages that help students structure how to write a scientific investigation. The aim of the investigation is to determine the refractive index of a perspex block.
Mainly used as an introduction in IB Theory of Knowledge but could be applied to geography. Students analyse and draw their own maps to understand better their cultural perspective on the world.
Powerpoint slides on energy production, with revision sheets for students on energy production, fossil fuels, pumped storage, wind generators and solar energy.
