A really strong collection of resources for teaching circular motion at A-level. I think even teachers who have been presenting this topic for decades will find some exciting ideas here.
The main presentation is animated with full notes and also contains links to film clips. It contains a careful derivation of the loop the loop treatment.
There are two documents with exam-style questions both written and multiple choice. These contain fully worked answers.
The “quickfire game” is an engaging recap race using questions on slips of paper.
A set of cards describing the stages in the life of a star. Can be printed as a card sort or done on computer(s) using the first slide. Answers are included. Appropriate for AQA P3 unit and OCR 21stC P7 unit.
This presentation was designed for a very successful interview lesson. The diagrams are animated and there are lots of AfL questions. A series of graded question sheets with answers are embedded allowing differentiation. Very clear and strongly organised ideas - recommended.

Four in a Row is a game for your whiteboard. Nothing needs to be printed or prepared to play this game. The game-play is somewhere between noughts and crosses and blockbusters. Two teams alternate, competing to correctly answer questions on the grid. The board is interactive - clicking tiles changes the colours and also reveals answers.
Four in a Row games on five maths topics are available individually from my shop or as a bundle at a reduced price.
The level of challenge is aimed at the foundation level GCSE exam. The questions are adapted from AQA non-calculator exam papers. A pen and paper may help some students at times.
A tried and tested lesson on absorption and emission spectra. Contains a recapping starter, an identifying spectra task and consolidation exercises. By using energy numbers for the levels students engage with the concept much better. Suitable for AQA Combined Science Trilogy 4.4.1.1 or AQA GCSE Physics 6.4.1.1 or A level Chemistry or Physics.
The pdf file allows students to independently practise the AQA A level Physics Engine Cycles and Graphs topic. Either in the classroom or at home this is a great lesson. A relaxing half hour for the teacher! Students use this pdf file on iPads/ tablets/ laptops. The emphasis is on student independence. Lots of guidance is available for incorrect answers. The file contains 67 hyperlinked slides with twenety questions to test their understanding as they go along. Think of it as a very interactive textbook, or a bit like Ceefax or Teletext from the olden days.
Performance will vary through different apps and platforms. The Adobe Acrobat Reader is optimal on “single page view”, Outlook and OneNote are inferior.
Also available as interactive eBooks;

GCSE Radioactivity
Young Modulus
Moments of Inertia
