Registering for an LbQ account will give you access to the questions included in this resource and many 1,000s more. These 5 questions are a small selection from a much bigger Question Set of the same topic; they can be used as a teaching starter, plenary or activity for pupils. It is designed to provide teachers a taste of what our content is all about.
LbQ’s KS3 Science Question Sets are designed by our subject matter experts, so that students can progress through the work with minimal input from the teacher. The questions gradually increase in complexity, provide corrective feedback with hints and images to scaffold the learning. Students can therefore progress independently, which frees up the teacher’s time to help those students who need it most.
This worksheet contains various questions to help your students learn (or review) basic concepts about Force and Types of Force. This worksheet is great for science class practice, a quick assessment tool, a quiz, a science station, a homework assignment, morning work, early finishers, bell ringers, or lesson plan supplements.
In this worksheet, students will answer questions about the following terms:
Force
Newton
Contact Forces
Non-contact Forces
Applied Force
Normal Force
Friction
Gravity
Weight
Tension Force
Electrostatic Force
Magnetic Force
Air Resistance
Spring Force

Measurement
Physics: Measuring Force, Newton Meters.
This is a practical lesson introducing pupils to Newton meters.
Physics: Measuring Force, Newton Meters Lesson pack contains: A PPT (15 slides) and a peer assessment handout (1 sheet).
Activities include:
Starter Task: A Thinking Skills questions- measuring force.
Task 1: Pupils are introduced to Sir Isaac Newton and his invention, the Newton Meter. Then pupils are asked to measure everyday items and record this information in the form of a table in their exercise books.
Task 2: Pupils should then be given a spring and a hook and 5 weights (1-5 kilograms). They will need to hang the spring and add the weights one by one and measure the length of the spring each time a weight is added and record the data in the form of a table. They will then be asked to plot a line graph (you will need to provide graph paper for this task).
Task 3: Pupils will need to conclude on the results and describe the relationship between weights added and the length of the spring and link this to how a Newton meter works.
Included in this pack is a peer assessment sheet that can be used to mark the individual activities.
Exit task/Plenary: our interactive Starter and Plenary Prompt Selector that is worth £3.
In our lessons, all key words are added to our KS3 Science - Scientific Vocabulary A-Z .

Complete No-Prep lesson with exam questions, tasks and answers on Vector Diagrams and Resolving Forces for AQA GCSE (9-1) Science / Physics. This lesson covers the second part of AQA GCSE Physics 4.5.1.4 / Combined Science 6.5.1.4 and is for higher tier students only.
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:
• Teaching notes
• Starter / Do Now Activity
• Explanation slides in “chunked” sections with animated diagrams.
• Worked examples of calculations / questions.
• 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.
The lesson was written for AQA GCSE Science / Physics but is very likely to be applicable to other exam specifications.

They have been designed to match the needs of the AQA Physics GCSE syllabus for the first half of module P2, but could be used with any GCSE Physics syllabus or appropriate unit from GCSE Double Science. They are suitable for use in class or as homework. They cover the areas of forces, motion and energy.
Each worksheet contains the relevant equation/s to complete the work, so that students should find the tasks accessible. The focus for calculation questions is on the process of getting to the answer rather than the answer itself. (Many answer guides or mark schemes simply quote the correct answer without the details to help a struggling student see how it was achieved).
My aim is to produce five more units of similar materials to complete the Physics GCSE. I would appreciate any feedback, errors or omissions to help me with this work going forward.
Two lessons used as revision.
Success criteria-
Identify a range of forces.
Identify the forces acting on an object and represent them with force arrows.
Identify the forces acting on moving objects.
Relate the forces acting, in terms of balanced and unbalanced forces, to different kinds of motion.
A student book to complete, pitched at low ability Year 9 for OCR but suitable to teach Newton's Laws across different specifications.
Three presentations to accompany the booklet.
Some powerpoints were created by a different member of the team and edited by me to fit with the booklet I made (can't claim all the credit!)
