Complete No-Prep lesson with exam questions, tasks and answers on States of Matter, Particle Model (Kinetic Theory), and Changes of State for AQA GCSE (9-1) Science / Physics. As a Secondary Science teacher and Deputy Headteacher 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: • Two Starter / Do Now activities so you can extend this over two lessons if needs be. • 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 states of matter – the properties of solids, liquids and gases. Describe the changes of state between the different states of matter. Describe kinetic theory - how the particles are arranged and move in solids, liquids and gases. Link the forces between particles to the arrangement and movement of the particles and to the properties of solids, liquids and gases. Explain why mass is conserved when a change of state occurs. Written for AQA GCSE Science and Physics but likely to be applicable to other exam specifications and certainly adaptable for a more able KS3 class.

Differentiated worksheets for a state of matter of lesson. These worksheets can work for KS3/ Year 7 or for KS4 topics for lower abilites.

Perfect lesson resource for KS3 Chemistry! A fully differentiated and resourced lesson that assists students in learning about how the particle model explains the properties of the three states of matter. Students will state the properties of a substance in its three states, draw and describe the arrangement of particles in the three states of matter, and use ideas about particles to explain the properties of a substance in its three states. The resource includes a detailed and engaging lesson PowerPoint with differentiated activities, quizzes and class practical activities for students to complete. This resource is part of the Particles and their behaviour topic and has been created for the delivery of the Activate KS3 Science course. Also great for KS2 Science. 32 slides in total for the lesson PPT

Students draw the particles in each state and fill in the gaps to describe the properties. Used with a low ability Y8 class.

If you are looking for a fun Science lesson on Non Newtonian Fluids or just as a stand alone lesson for the end of the school year, look no further - in this PowerPoint lesson children are invited to work for the Science Department of a Secret Intelligence Agency to make and investigate the properties of a mysterious substance called L.O.S.S. that can behave like a liquid and a solid (aka Oobleck ). A differentiated recording sheet and a response letter from the SIA agent with the information on Non Newtonian Fluids also included. The PowerPoint consists of 11 slides, including cover and credits. Most text is editable so that you could customise it to the needs of your class.

Comprehension and additional task exercises pages 130 and 131 from Next Page Science KS3 Complete. Accompanying PowerPoint and word searches available for free from the website. This exercise covers: • A brief description of the three states of matter alongside a pictorial showing the changes of state with increasing temperature (expansion clearly visible) • Water as an anomaly: ice (solid) being less dense that water (liquid) • A pictorial to illustrate this • The usual expansion with increasing temperature discussed with examples: liquid expansion (use in thermometers), expansion joints on bridges, power line sag during warmer months, rail track gapping • A planning exercise on how to make a thermometer and calibrate it • An exercise emphasising expansion with increased temperature but particle size remaining unchanged • Amazing WHAT? facts
