During this lesson (P2.5 Heating and insulating buildings) GCSE students work through a variety of tasks to develop their understanding of how homes are heated and how to reduce the rate of cooling. Based on the 5th from the AQA 9-1 GCSE Physics (OUP scheme) P2: Energy transfer by heating chapter. Also available as a digital worksheet, which is ideal for distance learning, independent study or catch-up of missed work through absence. Presentation contains (28 slides)- Bell work activity Lesson objective and success criteria Information slides Challenge activities (group work) Practical activity (where appropriate) Demonstrate understanding tasks (with answers) Lesson resources (additional to scheme) Aimed at a mixed ability class covering content 1-8.

Pupils begin by researching insulation or watching a small video (plenty on Youtube), the second task is to discuss way in which a house can lose heat (open windows, damage and leading to poor insulation), the main task is list ideas to reduce heat loss, looking at main areas of the house where heat is lost. The plenary allowed pupils to discuss houses of the future and how they need to be built to reduce heat loss. The lesson could also be guided to show eco friendly ideas.

A good small group or 1:1 activity when working with children who need to develop their sentence building, particularly useful for EAL and SEN children. A common target set by SALTs for children who have speech and language difficulties is to work on developing their subject + verb + object sentences, and this is a good way to approach it. There are 36 cards showing various subjects (boy, girl, dog, cat etc) doing various verb actions such as sitting, walking, drinking, jumping, writing, reading, eating and sleeping. I usually place all the cards face down on the table and get the children to pick a card and then describe the picture (ie The boy is sleeping in bed) and then post them into one of my home made post boxes, or alternatively, they can see how many cards they can collect. I have found this an excellent way of practicing sentence building and once confident you can encourage them to expand sentences to include adjectives.

The Hobbit, or There and Back Again is a children’s fantasy novel by English author J. R. R. Tolkien. The Hobbit is set within Tolkien’s fictional universe and follows the quest of home-loving Bilbo Baggins, the titular hobbit. This lesson looks at how authors can build tension and suspense in their writing with a focus on The Hobbit. It looks specifically at the part when Bilbo meet Gollum in the cave. Presentation, lesson plan and resources included. Students look at a poster slide detailing different ways authors build tension and suspense and then come up with their own examples. They then identify these techniques in an extract from chapter 4. They read the rest of the chapter, illustrating the levels of tension from main events on the graph. Finally, they write the part when Bilbo meets Gollum after watching a clip and reading the start of chapter 5 and write their own narrative of the scene.
