An introduction to forces lesson created for students in an SEN school. Can also be used for yr7 mainstream.
Included:
3 x worksheets - all unblurred when bought
Starter question
Info - Isaac Newton
Forces as push or pulls and changing an objects speed, shape or direction
ACTIVITY - unit of force, what forces are, how they effect objects, examples of force action on objects with pics - GAPFILL
Whole class check for understanding - are these forces pushes or pulls x 3
Use of arrows with forces
Types of forces - tension, normal, friction, thrust, upthrust, weight, magnetic, electrostatic air resistance. Arrows showing direction
Whole class check for understanding - which arrows are correct for direction of force x 3
Drag forces
ACTIVITY - Identify the force and add arrows to show direction
Whole class check for understanding - what type of force is this - x 5
Contact vs non-contact forces
ACTIVITY - table completion of contact vs non-contact forces and a gapfill definition completion
Whole class check for understanding - ontact vs non-contact forces thumbs up & down
ACTIVITY - Independent worksheet & answers
Plenary - what force is the picture and what way is it acting
