Complete No-Prep lesson with exam questions, tasks and answers on Static Electricity for AQA GCSE (9-1) Physics, covering exam spec point 4.2.5.1 (Static Charge). 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. This high quality lesson includes 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 video shows a representative sample of slides from the resource so that you get a good idea of what it includes before you buy. What’s Included: • 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. • 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. Learning objectives: Describe the production of static electricity through friction between insulators. Describe evidence that charged objects exert forces of attraction or repulsion on each other through a non-contact force. Explain how the transfer of electrons between objects can explain static electricity. The lesson was written for AQA GCSE Physics but is very likely to be applicable to other exam specifications.

A variety of resources for the new AQA GCSE Physics syllabus on electric circuit symbols. There’s a cut & stick “design your own circuit activity”, a Tarsia activity, a table for students to write in the name of the component and its function. There’s also a diagram which requires the components of an electric circuit to be labelled. Answers to all resources are included.

Lesson designed to build upon prior knowledge of magnetic fields and electric current. Covers the motor effect and how to increase the strength of an electric motor - includes practice questions for students. Ideal for AQA GCSE (9-1) P7, Cambridge iGCSE P9 and more Developing: State that a current-carrying coil in a magnetic field experiences a turning effect and that the effect is increased by: – increasing the number of turns on the coil – increasing the current – increasing the strength of the magnetic field. Secure: Relate this turning effect to the action of an electric motor including the action of a split-ring commutator. Exceeding: Apply Fleming’s left-hand rule to determine the direction of rotation of a current carrying coil in a a magnetic field.

Cast: The cast is easily adaptable to suit a class of 25 or more children. Main characters: 3 x news readers 4 x On the scene reporters Benjamin Franklin Thomas Edison 2 x archaeologists 6 x electrical safety team Sound Effects: News introduction music Big Ben “bong” Lightning strike Music: Suggested: Electricity from the musical Billy Elliott (available through YouTube) Duration: The script should last about 15 to 20 minutes; this does not include music or songs. The script can be edited or amended to suit the needs of the children taking part in the assembly or to fit in with what the students have been covering in class. It would also require students to write some arguments about non renewable vs renewable energy sources as well as writing some information about circuits and why they won’t work.

science resource designed for KS3 students with SEN

Its a good resource

An introduction to electric circuits!

SMART noteback presentation covering the basic aspects of electricity. By no means perfect but could be useful for last minute planning!

This inteactive activity is designed to introduce pupils to the idea that some everyday objects need electricity to work. The initial page asks pupils to identify items that use electricity. Subsequent pages ask the pupils to drag electrical items into the room in a house where they might be used. The final page asks pupils to identify objects that need either mains or battery power to work and can be used to initiate discussion on safety (battery being safer than mains).
