This is a handout to give to pupils while you work through density for Common entrance or ks3 with the different learning objectives and skills they will use clearly shown. Covering how to find the density of a block, a liquid and an irregular solid as well as what density is and floating as a density rule. There are graduated differentiation tasks included to help those who need more reinforcement as well as those who need stretching. Sorry you will have to provide your own lab equipment!

It includes 2 experiments as well the theoretical work. There is also a PDF version Thoughts, suggestions, comments? email hoppersphysics@sky.com

A work pack for students to fill in when covering work on springs, static forces and speed. It includes experiments, graduated differentiation, graph work and some maths. Covers the work on the CE syllabus on these topics. This is a publisher version which is editable and a PDF. Thoughts, comment and suggestions to hoppersphysics@sky.com

This is a pupil pack for the class to do their work in while you work on sound. It includes some experiments, computer research and graduated differentiation tasks. There is a guide to help you use the pack. Covers all the work required by the ISEB. This is a publisher file, there is also a PDF version included. Data loggers equipt to record sound are needed for one of the experiments. Thoughts, comments and suggestions to hoppersphysics@sky.com

A sequence of little experiments (although this does not have to be an experimental activity) you can use to asses the pupils ability to spot the different energies involved in some unusual transfers. Suitable for KS3, ISEB common entrance and middle school. Find more energy transfer work at https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/Hoppersphysics

This is a pack that covers pressure and includes examples of things made to have a high and a low pressure, experiments into the pressure made by a rectangular block and by a pupil in different positions, sitting, standing and on the floor. Also includes graduated differentiation questions allowing the pupils to find their own level of challenge. We are afraid you have to provide your own lab equipment! (and pupils.....) There is also a user guide for you to get the most out of your pack. This is a publisher file so editable and a PDF version. Thoughts, comments or suggestions to hoppersphysics@sky.com

This is a selection of questions about density. The first section covers the use of the density formula with some guidance on how to use any 2 of the 3 values to calculate the third. There is then space for some revision/summary notes on this. The second section tests experimental techniques and includes some calculations based on the measurements made in the experiment. This is linked to the Hoppers physics pack available free at https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/Hoppersphysics with the learning objective shown by each question noted in the question to allow students to look up the relevant work. This work is appropriate for KS3 or Common entrance. There are 8 pages of questions.

23 x A4 size triangular pieces of bunting with dates of events across the Queen’s reign. cut them out, colour, hole punch and hang on some string to bring some instant Jubilee cheer to the classroom.

A work pack for students covering the forces listed in the title for common entrance and ks3. There is a guide to help you use it as well. it has experiments, suggestions of videos and some computing research as well as ways to convert mass to weight on earth.

An introduction into current in a circuit and the way changing the resistance and voltage in a circuit changes the current. There is space to define voltage and resistance, an investigation using resistance wire, space to draw a graph and then an investigation into current around a series circuit. This is all in one 4 page handout. The fifth page has graduated differentiation questions to use with the graph from the resistance wire experiment with walk, jog and run questions to get every pupil stretched to their current level of ability. Suitable for KS3 and ISEB common entrance.

15 questions on energy transfers involving a wide variety of different situations. Suitable for KS3, Common entrance and middle school energy topics. Pupils are required to give one word answers and draw the answers for some questions.

Testing pupils on a wide array of questions this is in two parts the first covering Life cycles, the second Habitats. The 7 characteristics of life, the life cycle of a flowering plant and a frog are covered, along with questions on pollination. In the second section pupils describe habitats, suggest habitats for different animal, use a key, a food web and draw a bar chart. Takes between 40 minutes and an hour.

This sound worksheet contains questions that cover the common entrance and KS 3 or middle school syllabus. It includes work on pitch, frequency and amplitude as well as how these can be altered for a harp. There is also a question on sonar containing that trick examiners love about the distance away something is when there is an echo involved as well as a question on the how far away a thunderstorm is.

This pack contains 6 different bar graph drawing activities and some other activities with questions on graphs. Suitable for around year 3 they will work on counting different shapes (the shapes to work with are provided) different coloured shapes as well measuring width, volume (of liquids) and mass (although you can just provide numbers for them to use. They will also work on giving graphs a heading and axes labels. Perfect for cover, to do after an experiment or other task. Full instructions on the first page.

A follow up to energy types and transfer test with questions on generators, fuels, skiing and Bunsen burners. There are also a couple of ‘draw a device that changes x energy into y and z energy’. The last question is about bungee jumping and asks candidates to calculate the size of GPE and use this and the kinetic energy formula to calculate a velocity. Suitable for KS 3, ISEB common entrance and scholarship candidates as well as basic GCSE review.

This is a set of 20 multiple choice questions covering electricity, circuit symbols, series and parallel circuits, basic reading of an ammeter and prediction of the brightness of bulb in different circuits and 3 truth tables to fill out. It is easy to peer asses and suits the requirements for KS3 and Common entrance as well as a basic start for GCSE. Also suitable for middle school

Having tested the pupils knowledge of the different components symbols this test then gets them to use the components to solve various problems such as how to make a light switch on in a dark room as dawn comes up outside. (LDR). This is suitable for Common Entrance and KS3.

Covering the key points for the Common entrance, KS 3 and middle school circuits work with circuit symbols, truth tables current in series and parallel circuits, line graphing and various components there is something here to stretch everyone while making sure the basics are in place as well. There is a graduated differentiation task as the last question to allow pupils to choose their level of challenge. Will last around 30 minutes.

A prearranged density mandala to help pupils summarize the key density experimental methods as well as the rule of floating and the uses of density. Suitable for common entrance.

The video here explains current in a parallel circuit. Good to review what happens with current splitting. More videos at the link below. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCtqU2gzKXwiDP4GpSZVlDCA

covering use of the density and pressure formulae, one or two tricks like the man at a party when you are given the area of one of his feet and the calculation of an area and a volume. A nice quick start to a lesson, easy to peer mark or do from the board.
