FATS (Formative Assessment Tests)! Short, sharp assessments testing students basic knowledge and key skills as exam season approaches! Warn them! Test them! All in 20 minutes! Complete with mark schemes these tests are quick, can be peer marked and give students quick feedback on where they are at. Complete with a no consequences STUDENT HONESTY BOX to fill in, students have individual communication with teachers informing us how much revision they are doing, how they are doing it and if there is anything that that they are having problems with. Each test comes with a RESIT edition if students under perform. There are two FAT tests here testing Energy, heat transfer, efficiency, S.H.C., cost of electricity, waves and evidence for the big bang. We'll miss the old specifications when they are gone....
A nice, content packed presentation encouraging students to work out what density means and how to measure it for regular and irregular shaped objects. It is meant to encourage students to develop problem solving skills and work out things for themselves as independent learners. Wouldn’t that make a nice change?! All calculations come complete with answers.
Half life!? What on Earth does that mean? This difficult concept is covered in depth with this FREE video and accompanying worksheet. It comes complete with a fully comprehensive answer sheet. The tasks increase in difficulty and include extracting information from graphs and simple half life calculations. We even cover carbon dating. Ideal for home learning. Enjoy!
Ideal for use in normal lessons - or even more use if you need a to set a quick cover lesson due to illness or general teaching everyday stress related nightmare! Energy resources! The worksheet starts with simpler questions and activities in each section before moving on to more demanding and challenging activities later on. It also comes with free video links to our Science Geeks youtube videos where many of the issues are explored at different energy resources investigated! Plenty to fill one or even two lessons! Enjoy!
Some kids will never revise! It’s a sad fact. Learn 20 odd Physics equations? No chance! What is the difference between a transverse wave and a longitudinal one? Who cares? They don’t. But… what if you could persuade them to learn just the bare minimum where they might get lucky and achieve that pesky pass? This revision resource concentrates on key knowledge that might just get them through it. Learn just five equations instead of 20. Deal done. Give your lazy, underachieving kids a chance by convincing them, they don’t need to learn every thing to succeed. After thirty years of Physics teaching, I hopefully have distilled some key knowledge onto this one sided sheet. It comes complete with full answers so they know exactly what they need to remember.
Conservation of energy used to be a fun, easily accessible topic. Not any more! The new model introduced several years ago is fiendishly difficult to implement in everyday lessons and situation! Fret no more! This comprehensive sixteen slide presentation and free video is packed with theory, questions and challenges. All resources come with in depth answers. This is an ideal resource to deal with this difficult topic.
Half life!? What on Earth does that mean? This difficult concept is covered in depth with this FREE video and bumper PRESENTATION. Half life is explained with animated slides and the video. All slides contain questions with built in answers. The tasks increase in difficulty and include extracting information from graphs and simple half life calculations. There is a radioactive practical activity (“tillet cubes”/dice - or you can use coins or “m and m”'s). We even cover carbon dating. Ideal for home learning. Enjoy!
A new, updated version of our momentum presentation, with cool images, lots of questions and examples and challenges. What is momentum? What effects it? Who cares? Why are asteroids so scary? Not to mention bullets or rampaging elephants. This presentation will take students through simple momentum calculations and even deal with the difficult topic of the conservation of momentum in collisions and the calculations that show it for our higher ability students. Packed with activities, extension tasks and questions (all complete with answers), this is the idea presentation for teaching or revision.
Why do some collisions hurt? How can humans protect themselves during car accidents? Why is the rate of change of momentum so important to the size of force we experience? Containing videos, questions and activities. This presentation is ideal for students at foundation level dealing with the subject in a qualitative way and the second half of the presentation which introduces the equation and applies it with plenty of examples and questions for the students to try! Backed with visual delights, this presentation explains why the rate of change of momentum is important in collisions, explains car safety mechanism such as crumple zones, airbags and seat belts, and stretches more able students aiming for the very top grade. Also suitable for A level students as a reintroduction to the topic.
Newton’s laws! Newton’s third law is a difficult concept! But have no fear! Here are all the resources you need. A presentation, a video explaining the whole thing and a question packed worksheet complete with full answers! Ideal for GCSE and also suitable for getting it into the brain of A level physics students. It is accessible to a wide range of abilities up to, and including, genius. Essential Physics and Science!
Science Geek presentation! Eleven slides of distance -time graph fun including a starter, a plenary, a science geeks video link, the theory and lots of graphs and questions! Interpret the shape and calculate speeds! Ideal for KS3 or KS4 students! Comes with more challenging tasks for swotty students.

AQA Students are now expected to learn 23 Physics equations in their social media obsessed brains in order to succeed at GCSE nowadays. Twenty three equations! Not only that, but they are expected to be able to apply them, rearrange them , spot devilish tricks with prefixes , provide answers to the correct number of significant figures and remember the units of the answer they are giving. Today’s youth are up against it. This resource comes with a double sided list of all the equations they need to learn and the units of all the quantities involved. There is a double sided worksheet to accompany this sheet packed with 38 Physics calculations covering ALL of the equations. It takes pupils from simple substitutions through magic triangles and rearranging all the way to complex extension tasks. It comes complete with fully worked out ANSWERS. Mastery of this is essential!
What is the motor effect? How on earth do you use Fleming's left hand rule? Why would you want to....and who the heck is Bil? All these questions and more will be answered in this example packed presentation with double sided accompanying worksheet plus FREE video. All questions come with fully explained ANSWERS! There is work to suit all abilities and the unit is suitable for the new GCSE courses and advanced level studies alike. Help your students get to grips with this difficult concept.
