This worksheet is for gravitational potential energy, GPE, calculations at GCSE. It contains a pupil worksheet with blanks and a teachers sheet with answers. This is a standard format for physics calculations, to be used in class to introduce and practise each formula. These have been honed on lower set pupils and allows differentiation in the following way: Page 1 Notes and examples completed with the teacher Page 2 Table, allows pupils to practise using the formula and maniuplating it Page 2 Table, higher order skills for stronger pupils include s.f. and prefixes Page 2 Questions, these get harder as you work down the questions. The expectation is that this activity can stop when some pupils have finished the final questions, as this will still have allowed all pupils to practise problem solving. The answers can be given so pupils can complete questions for revision at the end of the top if they didn’t complete all the questions in class. There is a pdf version and a .docx version that is editable.

This worksheet introduces random errors, how to reduce them, and two timing practicals to practice reducing random errors. Works well in Physics Forces and Motion topic when measuring time to calculate speed. The apparatus required for the two practicals are: Measure time for an object to fall 1 m: class set of 1m rulers, objects to drop, timers, calculators Measure the time for a pendulum or swing to oscillate (swing back and forth once): a pendulum or swing, timers, calculators. Great short lesson activity and the interactive element keeps it interesting and relevant.

This excellent revision resource condenses the whole GCSE Physics topic of magnetism and electromagnetism into 1 page. For an activity students can use this google based webpage to watch youtube clips about each topic, then complete past paper questions. https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1kyg7TNPEF12zKbYuIJlXK4dXbv3qq2_0kvRpBJJQiGQ/preview?slide=id.p This topic includes the following: Magnetic Fields Induced Magnets Motor Effect Electric Motors Electromagnetism Electromagnets Generator Effect Alternators and Dynamos National Grid Step up and Step Down Transformers Loudspeakers and Headphones Microphones Students do not need to make their own notes, though they can make flash cards if they want to make notes to test themselves. This page of condensed notes with specially drawn diagrams breaks this topic down into 12 sections for students to work through. This resource is the pdf only, when printing select “colour” and “fit to page”. The google page will be available as long as I have the account, though I’m working on make a proper webpage in the future to host these activities.

This GCSE Electromagnetism topic mindmap has blanks for pupils to complete to check their understanding at the end of the topic. There is a teacher version with the answers. This is ideal for a revision activity in class or for homework, with the answers provided for pupils to check their work. This can also be downloaded with all the formulas in the Electromagnetism topic, there are worksheets for pupils to complete with a teacher copy with the answers.

KS3 Physics 4 Electricity Resistance worksheets include defintions, formula practise, practical, topic test questions and scientific skills. The 4 worksheets are editable .docx files and a pdf, they have teacher’s answers at the back with suggestions about how to support the pupils. Resistance. This introduces the definition and the formula with practise questions. Investigating how the resistance of playdough is affected by the dough’s length. This includes a plan with blanks and a circuit diagram to complete. It requires pupils to measure current and voltage, and then calculate the resistance. They draw a graph and form a conclusion and evaluation. There is a reference to a website with info about the practical. 3.Past paper style questions on resistance based on the practical they completed. There is an optional scientific skills page at the back, introducing random error and systematic error and reproducible. Answers are included for all worksheets, with hints about common pitfalls.

A great revision technique to go up a grade in Physics A Level is to memorise all the definitions. These are 1,2 or 3 mark wave definitions which will give your students the edge and it is especially useful for students who depend on their maths skills to solve problems, but it is difficult to derive an A Level standard definition during an exam! The definitions are for: frequency period wavelength amplitude longitudinal wave transverse wave coherent superposition phase phase difference path difference Huygen’s construction diffraction standing wave node antinode refraction critical angle total internal reflection focal point virtual image real image plane polarisation ultrasound infrasound wavefront intereference This pdf is easy to make into a set of colourful flash cards, and having them around, as opposed to online, ensures students can use them for a quick starter, plenary or for a break during a long lesson. The definitions are written to an A Level standard, double checked against mark schemes on past paper exams for the wave topic.
