Complete No-Prep lesson with exam questions, tasks and answers on Our Solar System and the Birth of Stars for AQA GCSE (9-1) Science / Physics. This lesson covers all of AQA GCSE Physics exam spec point 4.8.1.1 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. • 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.

A Jeopardy style space quiz. Great as a starter plenary or review. The 27 slide PowerPoint quiz is fully editable. Also includes a bonus solar system word search. Topics included: planets dwarf planets moons stars asteroids and comets How to play: Have a student or group select a category, for example ‘biology’ and then an amount, for example ‘100’. If the student or group gets the answer correct they receive 100 points. If they get it incorrect they lose 100 points. Repeat until all the questions have been completed. The winner is the student or group with the most points. The value for each question which has been chosen will be highlighted on the master category grid so that students know which questions have already been asked.

Space, solar system, stars, galaxies, moons, light years, gravity, the universe. Complete KS3 lesson. This is lesson 1 in a series of 6 high quality lessons that fully and expertly delivers all the points within BOTH the NEW KS3 Department for Education ‘Space Physics’ National Curriculum and the AQA KS3 specification / syllabus sections ‘3.7.2 Universe’ and ‘3.1.2 Gravity’. Updated and Improved 17th June 2019. Ready to use, no preparation required ! Project and go !! The powerpoint will lead you through every step. STUDENT LEARNING OUTCOMES - are given towards the bottom of this text. STARTER Pupils will start the lessons by thinking and working in pairs in a race to unscramble some of the key words in today’s lesson. After revealing the title and lesson outcomes students self assess against their current understanding of this topic. MAIN and MAIN and MAIN… This lesson is ‘chunked’ into discrete sections to support learning and engender positive behaviour by keeping students interested and focused. All points of the specification are addressed. There are various student activities such as gap fill, matching, reviewing a solar system model, words unscramble, literacy activity, questions and answers, think/pair/share, quiz, sort into size order, mnemonic, self-assessment, peer assessment etc. PLENARY In the plenary activity pupils complete a quiz and then peer assess it to uncover how much they have learnt during the lesson. They then self assess themselves against the lesson outcomes. Students who need further support set themselves additional homework to enhance learning of today’s lesson. EXTENSION ACTIVITIES These are provided just in case any group requires them. All resources are included in this excellent lesson, there is nothing for you to do but deliver it. OUTCOMES - STUDENTS LEARN TO: * Understand the structure of the solar system and be able to draw it with the planets in the correct order. * Explain what keeps the planets in place ‘orbiting’ the sun. * Understand what ‘stars’ and ‘galaxies’ and ‘light years’ are… * Use new literacy words such as ‘orbit’ and ‘light year’. * Comprehend the vast size of the Milky Way and the Universe. Thank you for looking, your positive feedback would be very much appreciated :) Lesson 1 in a series of 6: 1. Solar system, stars and galaxies and the universe. 2. Geocentric and heliocentric solar system models 3. Seasons. 4. Gravity, weight and mass. 5. Exploring and observing the universe. 6. The moon’s phases.

A simple worksheet on the Solar System. The worksheet specifically covers important definitions in the AQA KS3 syllabus such as exoplanet and light year. However it is a good worksheet for any KS3 or KS4 class. Answers

A worksheet which I blew up to A3 when covering the solar system basics with a year 7 class. Has space for pupils to write their own mnemonic to remember the order of the planets and boxes for pupils to write info about each of the planets individually. Would work well in combination with pupils using internet/book research to find the information for themselves.

This is a super reading comprehension with a text that is jam packed full of information about the Solar system, including galaxies, comets, stars, planets, moons and asteroids. Used when teaching in Year 5 and 6 and links very well with KS2 Scince - Space and Forces objectives. The questions use the ERIC reading symbols to develop reading.

Very simple worksheet I made including the sun and the 8 planets (roughly) to scale. Pupils can label and colour in the planets and sun. Can be easily differentiated by either writing the names of the planets on the board, adding the first letter of the planet to the text boxes, leaving it as is, or just having the sun and asking pupils to draw the planets and label them. Suitable for KS3.

This resource is ideal to be used to teach Junior Cycle Science E an S 3: Students should be able to interpret data to compare the Earth with other planets and moons in the solar system, with respect to properties including mass, gravity, size, and composition. A set of 8 fact literacy fact sheets on the planets in our solar system. These are designed to be printed and displayed around a room/corridor/sports hall. Students then visit the sheets in order to extract the data on each of the 8 planets. Groupwork Students could be split into groups with each group looking at a different data set. Alternatively each member of the group could be tasked with finding specific information. The question sheet allows students to interpret the data on the fact sheets and use it to compare Earth with other planets in our solar system. Comparisons looked at include density, diameter, day length, year length, composition and temperature. All facts are taken from the NASA website and are listed as correct as of November 2021.

Your students will have as much fun as mine did in assembling this flipbook featuring the nine planets of the solar system. What’s Included: Flipbook templates in blackline to print. Flipbook templates in colour to print. Checklists and Marking Rubric Vocabulary Cards How to assemble flipbook: You can choose either of the three options. Print out the templates in blackline. Cut around each template and assemble from smallest template to largest template or as per order of planets. Have students colour in planets and lettering. Staple at the top. Print out the templates on cardstock (different colors). Cut around each template and assemble. Students may colour in planets and lettering. Staple at the top. Print out the coloured templates. Cut around each template and assemble. Staple at the top. Interactive Notebook Glue the last template ‘Pluto’ in notebook. Then glue the other templates (descending order) just at the top tab. Suggested Use: Have students refer to books, websites, and videos on the planets to record information. List information that you want students to include in their report on the board, for example, planet’s distance from the sun, average temperature, number of moons (refer to rubric). Versatility The flipbook-style templates would make research on the planets more fun and engaging for students. The templates feature a visual of each of the nine planets and ample lines for students to write sufficient information.
