Use rulers to demonstrate amplitude and pitch. My starter was me playing happy birthday with a 15cm ruler, and Jingle Bells (it was December when I planned this)

Using ramps and cars the students plan their investigation using the planning sheet, and then carry out the investigation. This can all be done in one lesson. I then set them the task of writing up the investigation (using the level ladder) as homework, but could be done in a subsequent lesson

PDF with areas for students to complete to give an overview of the topic

This is a 100 minute lesson but is split into two 50 minute lessons. The first is about gravity, the second is on moments.

Complete lesson on kinetic and elastic energy stores. Starter - Students start thinking about a factor which may affect KE Main -Allow students to think of the other factor which affects KE, then introduce the formula, some worked examples and then the opportunity for students to complete a worksheet (answers included, rearranging opportunities on the sheet). Then moved on to elastic energy, worked examples and then a worksheet for the students to complete. Finally a small practical looking at the energy in an elastic band Plenary - 6 questions on the material covered in the topic so far, answers are in the notes.

Student carry out a practical investigating the relationship between number of blades and output voltage. Table included.

Students use masses and rulers to experiment with turning forces, then work through the calculations
