Complete No-Prep lesson with exam questions, tasks and answers on Structure of the Atom and Atomic Number, Mass Number and Isotopes for AQA GCSE (9-1) Science / Physics. Exam spec: Physics 4.4.1.1 and 4.4.1.2 / Combined Science 6.4.1.1 and 6.4.1.2. Note: I updated and improved this lesson 11.03.22 so please download again if you purchased previously.

As a Secondary Science teacher and Deputy Headteacher 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:
• Starter / Do Now Activity
• Explanation slides in “chunked” sections with animated diagrams.
• Worked examples of calculations.
• 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.

Learning objectives:

  • Describe the size and structure of atoms including the mass and charge of the subatomic particles.
  • Explain how electrons can change energy level.
  • Describe the structure of nuclei of isotopes using the terms atomic number and mass number and using symbols in the format 126C
  • Explain what an isotope is.
  • Apply your understanding to calculate the numbers of the different sub-atomic particles in a nucleus.
  • Calculate the atomic and mass numbers of different isotopes and suggest possible consequences of using different isotopes.

The lesson was written for AQA GCSE Science / Physics but is very likely to be applicable to other exam specifications.

As always BrainJar resources have smashed it out of the park, starter questions, animations, learning check questions and even exam practice. If you're short on time and need a top class lesson....these are it!
