Waves and wave measurements

Waves and wave measurements

£3.00
(0)
Introduction to waves at GCSE/A level. This starts with an activity where they write a poem (!) to pre-assess words they already know. The PowerPoint then introduces the different measurements of a wave (frequency, amplitude etc) before introducing the wave equation (speed = frequency x wavelength) and a worksheet that uses the equation. It is handy to demonstrate the different types of waves (sound, light, slinky and even a Mexican wave in the class!)

Suitable for KS3 and KS4. PowerPoint presentation with worksheets on using the formula for GPE and KE. I have a running joke in my lessons about my dislike of dogs - hence the dog falling from the aeroplane! Please feel free to change for a cat/politician/Biology teacher.........
Sound multiple-choice questions

Sound multiple-choice questions

£3.00
(4)
To be used as a useful summary after students have looked at the speed of sound in different substance. The multiple-choice format is useful for those of you preparing for these style exams (Cambridge IGCSE). The 'write your own' multiple choice questions at the end are surprisingly difficult to do, and are an excellent link to sentence structure/grammar etc.
