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.

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

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.
This clear, detailed and visually-appealing resource offers a complete reference point for Year 4 children, teachers and parents covering knowledge relating to ‘States of Matter’, as a part of their science learning. It contains comprehensive sections on:
Overview;
Solids, Liquids and Gases;
Changing States of Matter;
Role in the Water Cycle;
Solids, Liquids and Gases Continuum;
Key Vocabulary.
The content is fully aligned with the NC expectations for Year 4 children relating to ‘States of Matter’:
-Compare and group materials together, according to whether they are solids, liquids
or gases
-Observe that some materials change state when they are heated or cooled, and
measure or research the temperature at which this happens in degrees Celsius (°C)
-Identify the part played by evaporation and condensation in the water cycle and
associate the rate of evaporation with temperature.
The resource is designed to be printed onto A3, and is provided as both a PDF and a Word version (so that you can edit if you want to). All images used are licensed for commercial use and are cited on a separate document (included).

Simple Venn diagram worksheet. Students have to place the statements in the correct place on the Venn diagram. Another plenary I find works really well with this topic is to arrange pupils into groups of two or three and provide each group with a petri dish lid or base and a lump of plastacine. Get the students to make particles out of the plastacine, then arrange them in the petri dish as you would find them in solids, liquids etc. The nice thing about making the partcles in the petri dishes is that you can put them on the projector and get the rest of the class to assess them.
Solid, Liquid and Gas Worksheets
Included in this resource:
3 states of matter worksheets
3 states of matter answer sheets
Worksheets - The worksheets (one for each state of matter), require students to state examples, draw particle diagrams, identify properties and answer questions on linked processes such as evaporation, condensation and melting.
Answers - Full comprehensive answers for each section of the worksheets. The answer sheets are student friendly too, so they could self or peer assess if needed.
The documents are completely editable and set up in A4 format (PowerPoint) for easy printing.
Please view the preview for a full insight into the resource - Thanks.
This poster can be used as a knowledge organiser for the start of a topic or as a poster in the classroom. The information is based on the Y4 science national curriculum. However, it could be used as ‘what I should know’ information for older children ranging up to Year 8.

The Water Cycle
Changing States
The 3 main states (solid, liquid gas) and their properties (description, picture, particle diagram)
I have included an editable PPT verision and the finished PDF version.
