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!

This resource outlines information about the pros and cons of privatising space and allowing private companies to conduct space missions.
This could be used as a starting point on a debate on the ethics of privatisation of space and what would need to be considered and what laws might be needed to safeguard both people and space.
