Bundle of 4 complete No-Prep lessons with exam questions, tasks and answers on Space Physics for AQA GCSE Physics (9-1) , covering the complete topic.
As a Secondary Science teacher, Deputy Headteacher, writer and examiner for many years I make high quality no-prep lessons so busy teachers can teach outstanding lessons without spending hours planning. These high quality lessons include explanations, different types of in-lesson assessment (all with answers) and unique exam questions.
My lessons are ideal for non-Physicists - as a Biologist who retrained as a Physics teacher I know how to take learners on a journey that builds up their understanding step by step, while still going into a lot of depth. The preview videos show a representative sample of slides from each resource so that you get a good idea of what it includes before you buy.
What’s Included in each lesson:
Starter / Do Now Activity
Explanation slides in “chunked” sections with animated diagrams.
Multiple questions in different question styles and difficulties - no need for worksheets. Each “chunked” explanation section typically includes a set of “learning check / quick questions” followed by a set of in-depth questions on the learning from that “chunk” of the lesson. All questions have answers.
Exam-style questions on the whole lesson at the end of the lesson- these are unique, based on real exam questions but not just copied from exam boards.
Stretch and challenge where applicable
Answers for all questions
All easily editable to adapt to your teaching or to use in existing lessons.
Slightly humorous, at points, if you like that sort of thing.
The lessons were written for AQA GCSE Science / Physics but are very likely to be applicable to other exam specifications.
Please leave a rating / review and all other feedback gratefully received!
“Standing on the shoulders of giants!”
This is an attempt to combine the excellent Best resources with some of the amazing free materials on the site
I will include assessment materials and supplementary materials and as you can imagine, this is a huge work in progress! - it’s taking plenty of my time so any support gratefully received
Each lesson has starter, main activities, answers and 2 plenaries as well as practicals and equipment lists
No doubt some mistakes, errors and omissions will get through so any feedback is superb!
An exceptional set of powerpoints built to accompany Exploring Science resoruces. All additional resources can be found on TES. Resources have been built for varying abilities and all worksheets can be found for free on TES.
Exploring Science worksheets can also be purchased to accompany these powerpoints.

This worksheet covers the following Ks3 topics (necessary for Checkpoint examination) on Earth in space:
The origin of the Universe
Collision, asteroids, mass extinctions
Collisions and the Moon
The life cycle of stars
Galaxies
This clear, detailed and visually-appealing resource offers a complete reference point for Year 5 children, teachers and parents covering knowledge relating to ‘Sound’, as a part of their science learning. It contains comprehensive sections on:
Overview;
The Solar System;
The Sun and the Moon;
The Planets;
Planets Facts;
Key Vocabulary.
The content is fully aligned with the NC expectations for Year 5 children relating to ‘Space’:
-describe the movement of the Earth, and other planets, relative to the Sun in the
solar system
-describe the movement of the Moon relative to the Earth
-describe the Sun, Earth and Moon as approximately spherical bodies
-use the idea of the Earth’s rotation to explain day and night and the apparent
movement of the sun across the sky.
The resource is designed to be printed onto A3, and is provided as both a PDF and a Word version (so that you can edit if you want to). All images used are licensed for commercial use and are cited on a separate document (included).

This is a ‘True or False’ revision lesson for Y5 science Earth and Space. It is differentiated by outcome so students can work through as many as they can.
Students highlight true statements green.
highlight false statements in pink.
They then have to correct the false statements, explaining how they know they’re not true or correcting the information.
My students found this incredibly useful coming to the end of their Earth and Space topic. They were allowed to work in small mixed ability groups and it addressed a lot of misconceptions.
Before allowing the children to ‘correct’ false statements, I suggest talking through whether the statements are true or false. Some of them are deliberately very challenging and the students need to look carefully at the wording of the statement.
A tricky problem solving lesson that all the children enjoy and are actively engaged in.
A series of powerpoint presentations covering the following; The Earth, Seasons, The Moon, Gravity, Solar System, The Night Sky, Scale of the Universe, Space Travel and Changing Ideas
Five lessons covering the Earth in Space topic.
Detailed and well illustrated, with plenary activities.
Lessons include:
Our Solar System
Seasons
The Moon
