I-V Characteristics Lesson GCSE Physics

Separate lessons for higher and foundation courses on I-V Characteristics.

• Combined Science (Foundation)
• Combined Science (Higher) and Single Science
  …
  Learning Objectives
• Identify the I-V characteristics of filament lamps, diodes and ohmic conductors.
• Describe how to investigate the I-V characteristics of different components experimentally.

…
All Lessons Contain

• Starter activity (retrieval practice/recall)
• Teach/Check/Practice (I do/We do/You do) cycles with tasks which demonstrate that the learning objectives have been met in student books
• Check phases are compatible with cold-calling, mini-white boards or can be delivered as quick quizzes in books.
• Practice phases encourage writing in full sentences using correct vocabulary and phrasing
• Opportunities for assessment for learning and independent practice with scaffolded tasks building to independence.
• Self-assessment answer slides
• Challenge extension work for higher ability students
• SEND adaptations: lessons are chunked to avoid working memory overload, blue background for Irlens, word banks are provided, text is broken up for dyslexia and a consistent format is followed for ASD.
• Careers are integrated into the lesson. Careers links have a gold star in the corner to identify them easily
