(0)
A fully resourced, 35-slide lesson on distance–time graphs for AQA GCSE Physics (4.5.3). Everything your students need to go from “what’s a graph?” to calculating instantaneous speed - all in one deck. What’s included: Do Now with 6 retrieval questions on speed & velocity (MCQ + extended writing), with full answers Word of the Lesson - definition + Write-Pair-Share discussion activity with model answer 7 lesson objectives clearly mapped to AQA specification language Explicit teaching across 7 key concepts: axes & coordinates, gradient = speed, stationary sections, comparing speeds, drawing from data, real-world contexts, and Higher-tier tangent/instantaneous speed Embedded MCQs with reveal slides after each main idea - instant feedback, no prep needed Guided Practice (I Do / We Do / You Do) - three scaffolded graph-drawing tasks with full AQA-style 6-mark mark schemes Independent practice question (dog running scenario) with mark scheme included AO1–AO3 extended questions with model answers for exam skill development Designed for: GCSE Physics / Combined Science, Years 10-11 Exam board: AQA (aligned to specification point 4.5.3) Lesson length: 60-75 minutes (activities can be split across two lessons) Differentiation: Foundation and Higher content clearly signposted; tangent work labelled [Higher] Perfect for new teachers wanting a ready-to-go lesson, or experienced teachers looking for a polished, editable resource.
