The ear - KS3 science lesson that teachers pupils about the parts of the ear. Their functions, loudness, decibels, dB, ear damage, making and seeing sounds, oscilloscope, and noise cancellation. It includes an attractive PowerPoint with many varied activities to keep students focused. The PPT includes an unscramble puzzle race, video links, sequencing activity, gap fill, ear based literacy and numeracy, homework, and a plenary quiz. No marking for you ! All answers are provided throughout for easy peer or self-assessment. Duration: 1 lesson Like you I always want to give my young people the best lessons I can so I have spent a lot of time and effort on this spread out over 10+ years, I hope you like it! Feedback welcome :-D Thank you for your time, and happy teaching! Barclayfox.

This is a powerpoint navigated lesson that works on many levels. It leads students to consider what they want to improve and then gives them a simple but magical tool to do it in the form of a scorecard. Particularly useful for tutor time, or for New Years Resolutions or for any reflection and target setting or goal setting. It can be focused on school targets and be used to encourage students to take responsibility for their own learning and achieving progress. Useful for students and also for teacher’s - I’m much more organised and self disciplined now I use my scorecard ! :-) Could even be used as an active assembly - each student would simply need a scorecard and a pen to participate. Both the Powerpoint and excel files are fully editable. Happy teaching Barclayfox.

Great fun Christmas activities, complete and ready to use! Lots of engaging, enjoyable and fun activities and a primary activity of building and firing straw air powered rockets in the classroom (no need to go outside). Please don’t stop reading! This is not a lesson only for science teachers… easy and fully scaffolded, you do NOT need any rocket building skills! But you will have fun too! The Story: A story is woven and as part of the lesson the learners build rockets to save Christmas from Safcut - who is Santa’s evil brother. All instructions are included and the lesson teaches the learners almost automatically, this is NOT a lesson only for our friends the science teachers (although it’s excellent for them too!) - any of us can use this fun and imaginative lesson. Who is Safcut? What’s his plan? Can your class save Christmas? Length: The length of the lesson is very flexible, there are activities you can miss out and on the other hand there is a Christmas cracker based extension. So, the lesson can easily last anywhere between 1/2 hour and 1 and a 1/2 hours depending on your needs. Better than a boring quiz: This is definitely not a Christmas quiz, it gets the learners out of their seats, keeps them focused and engaged as they work in teams building and creating. It’s a great lesson you can use with all ages from 6 to 16 and it won’t go out of date so you can use it for years to come, which makes it excellent value at this price ! What do they learn? As well as being great fun and entertaining it is also educational and it includes: literacy, SMSC, team working skills, cooperation, physical building skills, questions with answers, activities with answers, play ball game, what engineers do, identify parts of a rocket, joke telling etc High quality lesson, great for teachers of any subject!
