If you’re looking for tried and tested physics resources, these will help get your course content across and make it interesting. Delivery and execution are down to your own personal style. My resources have all been tested on real classes and have been observed by respected colleagues, who are also excellent teachers. I work in one of the best (Outstanding) state schools in the UK. I retrained as a teacher in my 30s and have been teaching physics and some biology for twelve years.

Dos and Don'ts of Graphs

(0)
Students and graph drawing need I say more. I’ve finally written this set of simple rules to help with the new OCR Gateway Coursework but this should be useful with KS3, KS4 and VI Form for Biology, Chemistry, Physics and Maths. Use the PowerPoint with the class as a reminder before they draw a graph and print and laminate the summary to put on the desks while they draw the graph. I've included a video by Semaj Nosugref the robot to explain things..

E=MC2 Assembly

Sooner or later we all end up doing assemblies. This presentation is designed as an assembly lasting 15–20 minutes. It takes you though the most famous equation in science, E=MC2, explaining its implications in our everyday lives. I recommend having the 0.6g of lead in a plastic vial and a litre of water to pour into a bucket. This could equally be used in a lesson on energy, mass, space, etc.
