A non-practical investigation into vehicle stopping distances. Pupils learn about thinking and braking distances. The first depends on reacting. The second on KE. Graph to plot.

A simple worksheet to go with 'Body Story - Teen Dreams' a 45min docudrama about puberty. I've used this successfully with a yr7 low-literacy group. Go over what they've written as plenary. Great, if you don't fancy spending an hour hearing yourself talk about wet dreams and hair. VIDEO LINK: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=olJH7soqgYg

Double-sided activity worksheet to investigate GPE and KE with a pendulum. Requires datalogger and lightgate to measure velocity. For very able pupils, can be completed in an hour. Pendulum is varied in starting height and velocity measured at bottom. Tables on worksheet plus graph to plot.

This is a cube net to print onto A4 card and cut-out. Requires tracing paper to form screen. May require use of a scalpel or knife to cut-out window for screen and a pin for the pinhole.

The 7 parts of the EM spectrum which could be laminated. Has information about where in the spectrum they appear, frequency range, uses, pictures, energy, danger level.

C1 Air Pollution Revision worksheet in A3. Will keep them busy for an hour.

Investigate how surface area and mass affect the time it takes an objects take to fall. Introduces terminal velocity and air resitance. A double-sided worksheet for high ability students. Requires a piece of A4 paper and card, stopwatch and two metre rules plus graph paper. Will take an hour for very able students to complete. Pupils measure the time a piece of A4 paper/card takes to fall 1.5m. Then folded. Worksheet has tables ready to fill in. They will plot a graph of velocity vs surface area (already worked out).

Cardsort of the three types of radiation Alpha, Beta and Gamma. Pupils sort properties of each under each type.

Four images of different shaped magnets for pupils to draw field lines on at end of a lesson on magnetism.

Six stages of the plant life cycle on an A4 sheet for pupils to draw and cut-out. The six stages are given but the lifecycle needs to be known or available.

Kepler's three laws of planetary motion explained with an overview of ellipses.

Classic reaction time testing with 30cm ruler. Sheet is double-sided. One side has a table to convert centimeters to milliseconds. The other side has two tables for each hand and an empty chart to do a bar chart. Students are asked to make predications and write a conclusion. Video is from Youtube of Drag Racer - Hillary Will showing her reaction time.

Newton's 3 Laws of Motion on a cool, handy tetrahedron. Print onto card, cut-out, assemble and keep forever! Three faces are blank for students to add the 3 laws with pictures, examples whatever.

It's a pyramid! They make an actual square base pyramid of biomass. Photocopy onto card. Three faces are blank, one face has an example food chain with number of organisms. Will need full explanantion of what biomass is and how it increases up the pyramid, so as not to get confused with pyramid of numbers.

An A4 sheet to laminate and use with activity. Put three holes in side of plastic bottle, fill with water and observe water jetting out of holes. Pupils answer questions to consider pressure at top and bottom.
