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.
Powerpoint covers;
vectors and scalars
speed, distance and acceleration
velocity and position
distance/speed - time graphs
Powerpoint includes;
videos and past paper questions (edexcel)(GCSE/IGCSE)

************************************************************************
FORCE AND MOTION FLIPBOOK
Force and motion is made easy with this resource All About Force: A Flipbook on Force. This packet is a 20-page resource that consists of foldables/templates that can be used to create a flipbook on force and motion. It can be used to summarize your students' key learnings or understanding.
Page 3 contains an Introduction.
Pages 4 -8 show the different parts of the force and motion flipbook:
*Cover
*Pages 2-5
Pages 9-13 feature the ready-made templates that you and your students can use to create your own flipbook on force and motion.
Page 14 contains the Credits.
Page 15 focuses on the Terms of Use.
Note: I came up with this flipbook to help my students summarize what they have learned about force and motion. I understand that not all Science classes are the same, but the sample work reflects the key learning by my fourth grade students for the term. I included an editable copy that you can modify if you wish to. However, take note that I used the font KG Miss Speechy. You would need to download this from Kimberly Geswein's store if you want the same font. I hope this force and motion resource suits your needs.

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.

Learning objectives:
Give examples of the forces involved in stretching, bending or compressing an object and explain why, to change the shape of a stationary object, more than one force has to be applied
Describe the difference between elastic deformation and inelastic deformation caused by stretching forces.
Describe how the extension of an elastic object is directly proportional to the force applied, provided that the limit of proportionality is not exceeded using the formula force = spring constant × extension
Calculate work done in stretching (or compressing) using the formula: elastic potential energy = 0.5 × spring constant × extension2
Describe how the work done on the spring and the elastic potential energy stored are equal.
Prepare for the required practical on forces and elasticity.
