GCSE Physics - Current Calculations, Q=It - Foundation Worksheet with Answer Slides

AQA GCSE Physics and Combined Science | Charge Flow and Current, Q=It Calculations Worksheet | Foundation Tier with Answer Slides

Build the confidence and skills of your lower prior attainment students to independently tackle Current and Charge calculation questions with this focused Foundation Tier practice worksheet. Through 3 worked examples and 9 practice questions, students practise substitution and rearrangement of Q=It (Charge = Current x time) with simplified calculations and colour-coded variables designed specifically for Foundation learners.

This is the Level 1 Foundation tier worksheet and is suitable for Foundation Tier Separate Physics (4.2.1.2) and Combined Science (6.2.1.2 Electrical charge and current) students preparing for Paper 1. For more confident students, our standard worksheet which builds to level 2 questions is available here.

What’s Included:

• Editable and ready-to-print worksheet - 3 worked examples + 9 independent practice calculations (.doc and .pdf)
• Ready-to-print solution document (.doc and .pdf)
• Powerpoint Slidedeck walkthrough of all worked examples and solutions (.ppt)
  
  Designed to help you to:
• Adapt to the needs of Foundation learners through adding bespoke, redesigned, scaffolded questions to your scheme of work - not just a simplified version of the standard sheet
• Model excellence with 3 “we do” worked examples which scaffold students into “you do” independent practice and encourage the FIFA (Formula, Insert, Fine-tune, Answer) method
• Ensure progress with questions gradually increase in complexity and difficulty and remove scaffolding
• Feedback without fuss by either projecting solutions for whole-class green penning, or handing out answer sheets for peer or self-assessment
• Save time with a ready to use classroom activity that also works as homework, cover work or a revision session with no preparation required.
  
  Could also be adapted for Edexcel and OCR, or for intervention, booster or revision sessions.
