KS3 Forces Enquiry/Investigation

(0)
The A to Z of an enquiry. This is a fully differentiated and resourced enquiry/investigation into how the surface affects the amount of friction. It is suitable for UK levels 3 to 5 and some elements will start more able pupils thinking about some aspects of level 6 work. It consists of a 27 - slide slideshow and systematically takes the pupils through the stages of planning, developing and reflecting. The whole slideshow contains enough material for 3 to 4, one hour lessons depending on ability. The whole slideshow need not be covered and has been designed so that it is easy to select any sections that are required. It has also been designed so that there are challenging questions for more able pupils but clicking to the next slide provides support for those who need it. Many of the slides are animated. The resource has been designed to be sufficiently versatile so as to be suitable as not only as an introduction to enquiry/investigation at secondary level but also for those pupils starting upon the transition from level 5 to level 6. It is full of tips on how to tackle the various parts of an enquiry which pupils will find beneficial for those enquiries they tackle in the future and for coping with enquiry-type questions in examinations. The lessons are easy to follow, enjoyable and easy to teach. Apparatus needed per group is a newtonmeter and a 1Kg mass. I suggest you have an idea of the 5 surfaces to be used in advance and have a selection of different size newtonmeters available. I use the lab floor, the bench, the carpet in the corridor, a wooden dissection board and a Perspex safety screen. Groups of 3 or 4 are ideal. Content Definitions of independent, dependent and control variable, fair test and reliability. The problem posed is “Does surface affect the amount of friction”. Planning the enquiry with a worksheet to accompany which includes peer assessment and pupil response to assessment. Identification of variables Writing a prediction Writing success criteria Designing a table What is an anomalous result and how to recognise it. Improvements Selection of the correct type of graph How to draw the perfect bar graph (animated) Reliability and bias Reflecting on success criteria and learning strategies. I hope your classes enjoy this and do as well as mine. Please remember to leave a review. Why not have a look at my shop? https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/penyrheol1

Finish and reinforce the KS3 current electricity module or revisit it prior to exams with this innovative, enjoyable and challenging escape room lesson. Prior knowledge required: • current, voltage and resistance – defining and understanding, units, measuring; • circuits and symbols; • series and parallel circuits – current, voltage, switches, lamps; • current and voltage varying with number of batteries; • Ohms Law. Pupils have to work their way through the clues to find the code to a box with a combination lock containing an antidote to a substance, accidentally ingested by the laboratory. The substance is the departments a prototype, orally administered sunscreen being developed by the department which has unfortunately been found to turn the skin of mice purple and which has not yet been tested on humans and is also therefore potentially toxic. The pack contains: • PowerPoint – scene setting and instructions (sound effects and built-in timer); • crossword; • word search; • dominoes activity; • worksheet Differentiated over 2 versions); • code breaker sheet; • answer keys; • lesson plan. If time is limited just the crossword, word search and domino can be used. With a minimum of 50 minutes available one of the differentiated worksheets can also be used. The worksheet is the most challenging clue to solve and this can be omitted completely for less able classes. Both 3 and 4 number combination locks can be purchased very cheaply online if using an actual box containing an unopened bottle of a soft drink, with the label removed, for a member of the winning team to take to the technician. In the absence of a locked box, until the code is found, as each group completes a team member can be dispatched to the prep room for the technician to ”try the code”. Alternatively all the combination locks in the science department had been set to the same combination for an escape room lesson including the one used on the box with the antidote in the prep room. The combination has been lost but if the class can open the one in front of them it will open the one on the antidote! The module is available as money-saving bundles or individual topics.

Air Resistance and Friction Explained KS3

2 Resources
A comprehensive and enjoyable explanation of the causes and effects of air resistance and friction with animated PowerPoints which: demonstrate air resistance as resulting from collisions between the front of an object and air particles; demonstrate how friction is caused by collisions between “bumps” in sliding surfaces and slows them down and produces heat; demonstrate why streamlined bodies reduce air resistance to travel faster; provide a visual explanation of the relationship between acceleration due to gravity, sir resistance, steady speed and why parachutes work. The three practicals investigate: the relationship between the force needed to move a shoe over different types of surface. the relationship between surface area of a parachute and air resistance do streamlined objects travel faster in water? What’s Covered Friction is a force which opposes motion and is measured in newtons (N). Friction increases with the roughness of the surface. Friction is caused by collisions between “bumps”, sometimes microscopic, as surfaces slide over each other. Collisions slow things down and produce heat. How lubricants reduce friction Air resistance results from collisions between the front of an object and air particles. Steady speed. Air resistance wastes energy and slows moving objects What’s Included Animated PowerPoint for teaching with exit ticket quiz (x2) Answer PowerPoints to make self and peer assessment easy Flip it (pupil writes questions to given answers) (x2) Anticipation Guides (combined starter and plenary) Foldable (x2) Cut-and-stick activity pupil uses to make their own notes) (x2) Worksheet to support the PowerPoints (x2) Fact sheet (x2) Homework plus answers (x6) Fact share worksheet (x2) 24 Taboo cards Pupil progress self-assessment checklist (x2) Exit Ticket Suggested lesson plan showing choices possible between resources This pack contains thirty-one resources and it is intended that the teacher uses them to build their own unique lesson to take account of student ability and time available.

A comprehensive and enjoyable introduction to forces and an explanation of the relationship between mass and weight. What’s Covered Force is a pull or a push with examples. Arrows indicate the direction of force. Contact and non-contact forces explained and examples Forces can change an objects speed, direction or shape The Newton and newtonmeter. Real-life examples of forces. All objects attract each other and that the attraction force depends on the size of the object. The attraction force of planets is called gravity which acts towards the centre. Gravity hold Earth’s atmosphere in place. Mass is the amount of material in a body, is measured in kilograms (Kg) and is independent of position. Weight is the effect of gravity pulling on a mass. Units for gravitational field strength are N/Kg. Applying W = m x g to calculate weight of a body on Earth, the Moon and Jupiter. Practical The first simple practical gives pupils experience in reading scales as they find the weight of their pencil case and other items provided by the teacher. (selection of different objects and different size newtonmeters needed) The second practical introduces an element of fun and competition by using a bathroom scales calibrated in Newtons (an ordinary bathroom scales can be used but multiply the reading in kilograms by 10) to find the person with the strongest grip in the class (photograph of how to do this shown on the PowerPoint) What’s Included Animated PowerPoint for teaching with exit ticket quiz (x2) Answer PowerPoint to make self and peer assessment easier Flip it (pupil writes questions to given answers) (x2) Anticipation Guides (combined starter and plenary) (x2) Foldable x2) Cut-and-stick activity pupil uses to make their own notes) (x2) Worksheet to support the PowerPoint (x2) Fact sheet (x2) Homework plus answers (x6) Fact share worksheet (x2) 12 Taboo cards Pupil progress self-assessment checklist(x2) Exit Ticket Suggested lesson plan showing choices possible between resources (x2) This pack contains thirty resources and it is intended that the teacher uses them to build their own unique lesson to take account of student ability and time available.

Prior Knowledge Required Magnetic materials can be made into magnets. Iron, cobalt and nickel and their alloys are magnetic materials. Unlike poles attract and like pole repel. There is an invisible magnetic field around a magnet made up of field lines. Draw the field lines around a bar magnet. The closer together the field lines the stronger the magnetic field. Draw the field lines around two bar magnets with like and unlike poles facing. There are more field lines around the poles where the magnetic field is strongest. The magnetic field strength gets less as distance from the magnet increases. Field lines point away from the south pole and towards the north pole of a magnet. When a magnetic material is made into a magnet, the randomly facing domains all line up to point in the same direction. The Earth acts as though there as a south-type pole at magnetic north and a north-type pole at magnetic south.

Finish and reinforce a middle school module on breathing and the respiratory system or revisit it prior to exams with this innovative, enjoyable and challenging escape room lesson. Prior Knowledge Required Breathing is movement of air in and out of the lungs. Respiration is the release of energy from glucose. Breathing provides the oxygen for aerobic respiration and gets rid of waste carbon dioxide. Label the trachea, right bronchus, bronchiole, alveolus, intercostal muscle, rib, diaphragm.

Compare the percentage of oxygen, carbon dioxide and nitrogen in inhaled and exhaled air. Mechanism of breathing. Changes in volume and pressure inside the chest during inhalation and exhalation. Evaluate a model of the mechanism of breathing. Students have to work their way through the clues to find the code to a combination lock on the school exam paper store in which the substitute teacher has been accidentally locked in the stationery store. The pack contains: PowerPoint – scene setting and instructions (sound effects and built-in timer); crossword; word search; dominoes activity; worksheet; code breaker sheet; answers; lesson plan. If time is limited just the crossword, word search and domino can be used. The worksheet is the most challenging clue to solve and this can be omitted completely for less able classes. Both 3 and 4 number combination locks can be purchased very cheaply online or the teacher can pretend to phone the school office for the staff to attempt to release the teacher.
