KS3 Science topic, suitable for Year 7. Covers the following topics: Particle theory, Changes of state, Density, Diffusion, Convection, Conduction & Surface tension. Includes lessons and assessment as well as an investigation in to which metal makes the best conductor.

A series of 10 science lessons for Year 7 that introduces students to working in a lab and collecting data. Topics include: Initial assessment, working scientifically, collecting data, drawing a bar graph, drawing a scatter graph, making a prediction, using a Bunsen burner.

This resource contains assessments, PowerPoints and workbook for Learning aim C for unit 1. There is another resource with the chemistry and biology content.

This resource contains PowerPoints, workbook and assessments for Learning Aims A&B, the chemistry and biology sections of Unit 1 principals of applied science.

The aim of this experiment is to use results of a titration to perform a calculation linked to a real life example of measuring sulphur dioxide emissions from a power station. The scenario is that students are given a solution of sulfuric acid produced when waste gas from a power station is bubbled through hydrogen peroxide. They perform a titration the sulfuric acid against a known solution of sodium carbonate then use the results to calculate the mass of sulfur dioxide in the waste gas. Included in the PowerPoint is an introduction to the experiment, teachers notes, results table, instructions for students, advice on performing titrations and how to do the calculations. Depending on the group, different levels of support can be given.

These are slides which can be printed and given to the students as cards for a 10 minute card sort activity to support a lesson on atomic spectra. It helps them understand atomic emission and absorption spectra in terms of adsorption and emission of photons by the electrons in an atom. Included is a pdf with 4 cards on each page and the original PowerPoint from which they were made.

This card sort activity allows students to create a flow diagram explaining the processes in different types of electricity generation. They can also describe the energy transfers that take place. They can build flow diagrams for coal, oil, gas, nuclear, tidal, wave, geothermal, wind & solar energy.

This is an activity suitable for a lesson or as a piece of homework. It is designed to develop literacy and promote an interest and awareness in science. The students find a science based news story published in the last 7 days that they find interesting. They pick out keywords and find definitions for them. They research additional information and summarise the story in their own words.

This is an interactive scenario which covers the US governments response when a bird flu outbreak spreads to the US from China in a global pandemic. The students are given key choices at each stage of the pandemic which affect the number of US citizens getting sick and the overall death toll. The tough choices can be used to encourage debate within your class and get students to justify their decisions. This can be used in either science, politics or history class and will last approximately 20-30 minutes. Provided are slides and accompanying worksheet.

Included are lesson plans, slides, video links, activities and worksheets for AQA-P1-5-Waves. Includes lessons on, the nature of waves, measuring waves, reflection, refraction, diffraction and sound.

This includes lesson plans, slides, video links and worksheets for AQA-P1-1-Energy transfer by heating. Includes lessons on infrared radiation, surfaces and radiation, states of matter, conduction, convection, evaporation and condensation, energy transfer by design & specific heat capacity.

This is a lesson designed to familiarise students with the exam's equation sheet and give them practice at doing the calculations. Suitible for use at the end of P1, before a mock or the final exam.

These resources cover lesson plans, slides, activities, video links and an end of unit test for AQA-P1-4-Generating electricity. Includes lessons on Fuel for electricity, Energy from wind and water, Power from the Sun and the Earth, Energy and the environment, The National Grid & Big energy issues.

This is a worksheet written for AQA P1. It asked the students to calculate energy and efficiency then draw a Sankey diagram.

Large A3 colour worksheet written for the AQA P1 6.3 Communications lesson. Students have to find information from the Science A textbook (Will need editing if using the AQA physics book).

A short activity to introduce students to a risk assessment. They are given 6 hazards, they then have to use the labels to fill in the risk assessment table. Suitable for use as a starter or plenary.

This is an activity was written for AQA P1 -Energy transfer by design. Split students into groups, give each group a question based on their ability, they apply their knowledge from the previous lessons in the topic. Then present what they have worked out to the rest of the class.
