Current, Voltage and Resistance Explained Distance or Home Learning Pack for KS3
An action-packed and enjoyable distance learning or home learning introduction to current as a flow of electrons. It explains the relationship between current, voltage and resistance using the analogy of a diver using energy obtained from food and giving off heat as they swim through pipes filled either with water (low resistance) or water and rocks (high resistance). Food as a source of energy is replaced by a battery, diver by the electron and rocks by metal ions. Both scenarios are animated in the PowerPoint. This explanation is then extended to compare the resistance of long, short, thick and thin wires. The simulated practical explores conditions needed for current to flow in a circuit.

Distance Learning or Remote Learning Quiz KS3
A fantastic end-of-year or back to school activity but really the ideal any-time vehicle to promote community and communication between teachers and students and which also introduces that important element of healthy competition - so often missing in distance learning. The competition can be run for individual classes or across several classes and offering a prize and running a “coming to your computer soon” campaign for a few days before fires interest and enthusiasm.
How it Works
The design of this fully - animated quiz is unique and is specifically tailored to quizzing at a distance.
Students complete the quiz which automatically records the score and the time taken.
They then take a screenshot or photograph of their final score or time and email it to their teacher.
The winner is the student with the highest score and in the event of a tie, the student with the lowest time wins.
The time penalties for each question mean that those pupils who have cheated and looked up the answers online are unlikely to win.
On selecting a wrong answer, the student is immediately provided with the correct answer.
Question Content
All questions are pictorial and multiple choice. A wide-range of topical and historical general knowledge is included. As well as asking a question, most slides also provide some interesting snippets about the topic so pupils are expanding their general knowledge as well as enjoying the activity. Topics include:
geography
history
sport
nature
current affairs
science
music
astrology
astronomy
flags of the world
famous people
famous landmarks
Types of Question
Straight forward select the correct answer.
Unscramble the picture to identify the object.
Memory test – answer questions on the order and detail of objects which have passed on a conveyor belt.
Memory test – Give the coordinates of fish before and after they swim around a pond.
Identify the slowly - revealed animal or famous location.
Identify the well – known phrase or saying from animated clues.

Resources
An animated PowerPoint which guides the student through the lesson by:
explaining how to use distance learning effectively;
explaining how to use this resource;
explaining current, voltage and resistance and the relationship between them;
providing the answers to all the worksheets so that the students can mark and correct their work.
Four worksheets, and two cut-out activities, the answers to which are in the PowerPoint.
A foldable and cut-out activity so that students can record and organise their learning.
A checklist for students to use to assess their progress.
For those students without internet or a computer or a computer at home a condensed printable copy of the PowerPoint is provided for distribution by school.
Ways to Use this Resource
Upload PowerPoint and worksheets to school intranet. Students print their own worksheets.
Upload PowerPoint and worksheets to school intranet and provide a hardcopy of worksheets for students. Those families who do not wish to collect worksheets or who are in isolation can print the worksheets at home.
Students without photocopying facilities are instructed to write their answers in full sentences and to writs a sentence to describe any circuit diagrams drawn.

Back to School/End of Year Team Building Quiz KS3
A fantastic back to school or end of year activity which is ideal for welcoming students back from lockdown and starting to rebuild community. It is a team activity which can easily be undertaken by students while meeting the requirements of social distancing and there is a reminder to so at the beginning of each team round.
It is a 61 question, animated, interactive team quiz with built – in scoreboard for up to seven teams. All questions are pictorial and multiple choice. A wide range of general knowledge questions and tasks are included. As well as asking a question, a lot of slides also provide some interesting snippets about the topic so pupils are expanding their general knowledge as well as enjoying the activity. Topics include:
geography
history
nature
science
music
astrology
astronomy
flags of the world
famous people
famous landmarks
current affairs
Team Rounds
Each team will attempt their general knowledge team round of three questions. The answer to each question must be decided by the whole team. If a wrong answer is given, the next question goes to the first hand up and, if correct, that person’s team get to try the rest of the round.
Each team will also have to solve the clues to identify a well - known phrase or saying.
There are four lightning rounds in which team members consult to try to identify a slowly revealed person or landmark.
Memory Test – questions on the order and detail of eleven objects which cross the screen then disappear.
Individual Rounds
Four unscramble and identify rounds which consists of a picture which has been cut up and rearranged.
Memory Test – give coordinates of fish which have moved around a pond.
Finally, the fifteen - question individual bonus round. This round allows flexibility in terms of the time the quiz takes as not all the questions have to be attempted. The quiz therefore can last between 40 and 50 minutes.
Full instructions are given on the PowerPoint itself.

Current Electricity - Voltage in Series and Parallel Circuits - Classroom, Distance and Blended Learning for KS3
The two packs in this resource allow the same lesson to be taught to students whether they are in a classroom or distance learning at home. It facilitates blended learning and provides equality of opportunity for students who are unable to attend school due to Covid-19.
The classroom resource consists of an animated 12 slide PowerPoint and 13 varied and exciting printables including a foldable, cut-and-stick and progress check. The one-page flowchart lesson plan shows where choices can be made between the printables so that the teacher can select the activities to suit the exact needs of their class.
The distance learning pack consists of a 36 slide animated PowerPoint which, not only teaches the science but also how to gain maximum benefit from distance learning. The PowerPoint has been designed to replace the teacher by providing structure, sequence, knowledge and answers. Additional worksheets, cut-outs, foldable and progress check provide a familiar medium for students to develop and test their knowledge, continue to develop their literacy skills and use their creativity to organise their learning and assess their progress. These can be printed off by the student or provided by school. There is also a short digital test/homework which can be returned to the teacher.
The practical, whether real time in the classroom of simulated for distance learning, takes the student through planning, designing a table and drawing conclusions from a given set of typical results.
Objective
To know that voltage is measured in volts (v).
To know that voltage is measured by a voltmeter placed in parallel in a circuit.
To draw series and parallel circuits from descriptions and sketches.
To know and understand why the battery voltage is shared across all the components in a series circuit.
To know and understand why the voltage across each component is the same as that across the battery in a parallel circuit.
Be able to deduce voltmeter readings in series and parallel circuits.
