I find that this PowerPoint and its varied and interesting activities keep lower level students engaged while allowing differentiation for higher achievers – see below for details. I’m sure you’ll find it useful. This lesson is 5 in a series of 5 that fully delivers all the points within the NEW KS3 specification SoW on the “light” topic. For more lessons designed to meet the new KS3 and KS4 specifications please type Barclayfox into the tes resources search engine to see all my lessons. STARTER Pupils become engaged in the lessons by thinking/working in pairs to solve 5 anagrams to find out what today’s lesson is about (you could offer a prize for the winners). After revealing the title and lesson outcomes students self assess against their current understanding of this topic. Next there is a scientific literacy Q and A activity to ensure all students learn the key words required to understand this lesson. MAIN Homework is set and then students use the activity sheet (built into the PowerPoint – you just print it out) to work in pairs and label different parts of the eye, differentiation - higher ability explain the function of the parts. This can be self or peer assessed using the answers on the slide in the PowerPoint. MAIN Students undertake a matching activity to match the names of parts of the eye to their functions. This can be peer marked, and returned so that students can correct any errors / improve their work. MAIN Students recall the colours in the spectrum of white light, and this is developed into looking at the frequencies of the light and the relationship between colour and frequency. A gap fill activity promotes understanding of several key points and is self-assessed. MAIN Students watch a (carefully selected) short video that explain how our eyes see colour and then they have fun watching another video that tests their individual ability to see colours. PLENARY Students answer 5 questions by matching and then self-assess their understanding of the desired outcomes of today’s lesson now they have reached the end of the lesson. They compare their final understanding to their previously self-assessed understanding at the start of the lesson. Students who need further support set themselves homework to improve their learning of the content covered today. EXTENSION ACTIVITIES A variety of activities are provided just in case any of your groups requires them either this year or in future years. All resources are included in this great lesson, there is nothing for you to do but print the activity sheet (if required) and enjoy teaching it. Thank you for looking, your feedback would be much appreciated! :) Lesson 5 in a series of 5. Happy teaching, Barclayfox.

Energy stores and transfers FREE HELP sheet. New spec 9-1. Stores, carriers, pathways.

FREE help sheet for teachers or students on energy stores, transfers, carriers, pathways and energy diagrams. This is specifically for the new GCSE 9-1 specification (which can be confusing). ENERGY - THE LANGUAGE HAS CHANGED: On tes there are many many energy lessons and resources teaching to the old spec. which are no longer applicable if taught today – which is a polite way of saying they are wrong. There are even some resources I’ve looked at that claim to be new spec. 9-1 – but they are wrong too, even BBC Bitesize is getting some aspects a bit confused. Please don’t risk teaching your classes incorrectly ! This resource is a FREE help sheet for science teachers which explains it all. This help sheet is clear and simple and free ! For a high quality, ready to use and accurate science lesson on this topic please use the link below. Energy stores and transfers Happy teaching!

Sleep, insomnia, hints and tips, wellbeing. Hints and tips to help you sleep.

Hints and tips on how to fall asleep and get good quality sleep. This is not a lesson as such. However students who are short of sleep find it very very difficult to learn, so hopefully this will help them. I wrote this as one of my colleagues (yes he is a teacher!) is having a problem sleeping, and several of my students complain about not being able to sleep / lack of sleep. So I hope this will help them. It’s aimed as my adult colleague but these word docs can be very easily modified and given to students… Best wishes Barclayfox

FREE lesson, so you can see the quality of my “Barclayfox” lessons. Ready to deliver high quality KS3 lesson from Barclayfox. This lesson introduces waves by teaching KS3 learners about: Waves, wave types, functions, wavelength, amplitude, peak, trough, longitudinal waves, transverse waves, and superposition etc. Like all my barclayfox lessons this is a complete and ready to use high quality lesson. I have used this lesson and improved it many times with my different classes across ten+ years. There is nothing to do but give it a quick look through it. But, if you (like me!) cannot resist making a change its modular nature makes it very quick and easy to modify it to your exact requirements. No marking for you ! :-) All answers for all activities are included in the PPT to allow peer and/or self-assessment to reduce your workload ! I’ve spent a lot of time on this improving it after lessons spread over 10+ years, I hope you find this FREE lesson useful in your teaching. If you find it useful please encourage me with some positive feedback :-D If you like this lesson there are many more like it in both style and quality my shop, here’s the link: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/barclayfox Thank you for your time, have a great day !
