Aimed at the NEW OCR Controlled Assessment but useful for all. A guide in planning an investigation using the old bouncing balls experiment to illustrate all the key points. An example piece of work is used throughout to illustrate each point and link to the marks scheme. Click the monkey on each slide for marking tips! Use with the students or just to prepare your own teaching.
