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.

This is a revision lesson that makes use of many games, activities, work sheets and loop puzzles to revise the following:- Radioactivity, radiation, atoms, isotopes, activity, half life, alpha, beta, gamma, the discovery of the nucleus, changes in the nucleus, alpha scattering.

This lesson is on Charles’ law for KS4. It covers temperature, KE, the Kelvin scale, and absolute zero. Students also learn how to convert between Kelvin and degrees Celsius (centigrade) and vice versa. It then moves on to the relationship between temperature and volume and calculating temperatures and volumes using Charles’ Law. Also covers all the key language. Well organised and succinct with clearly made key points and well chosen images. This lesson explains the material in an easy to understand way. Provides an excellent ready to use lesson on this topic, or it can easily be adapted if you wish. UK KS4 and USA grades 9 to 11 (ages 13 to 16). Happy teaching!
