KS3; Energy in Food

(0)
This lesson looks at energy in foods and investigates the energy stored in different types of crisps. This is aimed at a lower ability class, but could be adapted to measure the energy transfered to the water. Worksheet at the end of the presentation.

Heat Energy Transfer by Radiation

(0)
This lesson introduces Energy transfer by infra red radiation. Demo Lesley cube to show how the colour of a surface affects the emission of ir radiation. Pupils then carry out an experiment that loks at this variable using colour boiling tubes. Worksheets included.

Energy Stores and practical task

(0)
Introduction to the 8 energy stores. Included is a practical activity investigating how the drop height of ball affects the height it bounces. Worksheet to go alongside the ppt are at the end of the document.

Response to Exercise (Respiration)

(0)
This lesson has questions and answers about aerobic and anaerobic respiration. It then asks pupils to plan a practical about how the intensity of exercise affects heart rate and the length of time it takes for breathing rate to return to normal (link to oxygen debt).
Anaerobic RespirationQuick View

Anaerobic Respiration

(0)
This lesson links aerobic respiration and anaerbic respiration. It also includes oxygen debt summary and gets pupils to plan a simple practical.

Conduction

(0)
Lesson looking at the particle model and conduction (energy transfer by heat). The practical uses conduction bars but could be adapted to use metal rods, pins and wax. Worksheets included.

KS3 Energy

10 Resources
This bundle contains lessons (most have practical activities) and worksheets are at the end of each presentation. The lessons were designed to teach energy to KS3 classes and/ or lower ability pupils at GCSE. It includes; Energy stores and transfers; including conduction, convection and radiation and how we can reduce energy transfer using insulation. It also includes energy in foods, energy efficiency, reenwable energy information cards and a wind turbine investigation.
