I presented this assembly to my house and it lasted about 15 minutes once everyone had come in and sat down. It starts with a video link to students trying to define what respecting others means. This then leads into thinking about what disrepect looks like from teachers to students and then vice versa to identify that it wouldn’t look much different. It then goes on to look at what disrespect of other students looks like. From this it then build on disrespect to discuss why respecting others is important and looks to define our school’s definition of respect ( you can obviously change this). Finally it looks at setting the students a challenge of creating their own school respect charter.

This assembly has a focus on the RAOK challenge - random acts of kindness and is planned to be around 15 minutes long. I played the video at the start to keep the students engaged as they entered and it worked really well. Half way through there is another video where people are asked if one person can change the world. My head boy and girl then took over reading a script provided, telling the story of a "RAOK" movement called the karma army (this could quite easily be done by yourself). The assembly concludes with ways in which the students can carry out random acts of kindness and also looking at school charities. Hope this is useful and saves you some time.

I taught this lesson to a low ability year 9 class and it is based on the new GCSE spec. It has a really scaffolded worksheet included in the powerpoint which you could adapt to challenge higher ability students. It worked well at getting the students o think logically and work independently, looking at real life examples of acceleration that they could relate to. Please see a copy of the worksheet in the cover image. Save yourself some time and grab a bargain.

I presented this assembly to my house and it lasted about 15 minutes once everyone had come in and sat down. It starts with a video link to base jumpers which worked really well at keeping all the students quiet as they walked in. It also sets up nicely for learning to fail as these guys clearly can't fail, but in school failure is all part of learning and so students should embrace failure. The assembly then goes through the endeavors of famous people who have dealt with failure numerous times and moved on from these set backs and learnt from them successfully. It finishes by suggesting a "a fail Friday" where across the school students and teachers alike are encouraged to take risks in lessons and step outside if their comfort zones.

This assembly takes a twist on the idea of setting resolutions that are usually broken. It starts with statistics on the most popular resolutions and the further statistics on how likely people are to stick to resolutions all in a very clear and colourful way. It then leads on to students setting a resolution to learn to fail and that breaking resolutions isn’t necessarily a bad thing as long as they can learn from their mistakes and try again. It then goes on to go through some high profile case studies of successful people who have failed many times but not given up and learned from failure. It lasts around 15 minutes and is a great assembly for the start of the new year. It is aimed at all secondary year groups and worked well when I performed it especially when students got involved.

This resource includes 4 powerpoint based lessons with worksheets integrated into the powerpoint so you can print them off easily. I have created it based on the new national curriculum framework which appears to be bringing a lot of content down from the KS4 curriculum. This is followed by a fifth assessment based lesson where students complete a level assessed task. Each powerpoint contains footnotes to explain what should be done if it is not obvious. Each powerpoint is planned to take between 50 and 60 minutes and includes plenty of student lead learning and many opportunities for assessing student learning throughout the lessons. Thank you for looking.

This assembly worked really well, opening with a slide asking if students believed in Karma. It then goes on through various consequences of actions and how scientifically the teen brain is not always capable of thinking about long term consequences, but that students still have to take responsibility for their action. It lasted 15 minutes and was received well. Grab yourself a bargain and save yourself an afternoon of planning. Enjoy

This assembly powerpoint takes a twist on the idea of setting a new years resolution, by hanging on to the idea that everybody wants to be successful. It then looks at what successful people do to ensure they are successful with school based examples that students can relate to. If students haven't mad new years resolutions this assembly will inspire them to and if they have then it may give them some more to work towards. This assembly lasted 15 minutes and went down well with the students.

I used this assembly as an introduction to a new whole school drive on improving students numeracy through a tutor time activity called the maths Olympics. The assembly starts with a video which shows photos of a boy from birth to 11. The students were mesmerised by it and it meant they all came in nice and calmly. The assembly looks at the number of days and hours students have been alive and what they have done with their time and focuses on the importance of having a growth mind set to make the most of their time. The assembly lasts around 15 minutes and worked really well. Enjoy

This assembly starts with some nice optical illusions which leads on to the concept of perception. It then looks at various stereotypes in school such as Jocks, Class Clown etc and looks at the qualities of each, and asks students how they would like their peers to perceive them. It then looks at how future education or employment would perceive them looking at the information the school would provide them with - Attendance, behavior points, achievement points, GCSE's and the qualities these would show if they were good. It also considers social media and how students should be aware of what they post now could be seen by future employers. The last few slides are to be filled in by me as they are specific to my school where I will be going over the best attendance, behaviour etc in the past month to hand out a reward. This assembly lasts 15 minutes Save yourself an afternoon planning and grab a bargain. Thanks for looking.

Each lesson has been planned to last between 50-60 minutes and includes differentiated outcomes and activities I taught this to my year 7s and it worked really well but also allowed me to make a few tweaks that you can now benefit from. All in all it took me about 25hours to create during my summer holidays so save yourself some time and grab yourself a bargain! Lesson 1 - Introduction to acids and alkalis - practical identifying everyday acids and alkalis with blue and red litmus paper Lesson 2 - Finding out how strong acids and alkalis are - practical using universal indicator Lesson 3 - Neutralisation reactions - class demo of mixing acids and alkalis with universal indicator Lesson 4 - Investigating which neutralises more acid - own brand or branded indigestion tablets Lesson 5 - Introduction to chromatograpy - practical Lesson 6 - Conservation of mass - dissolving salt in water practical Lesson 7 - Separating salt from rock salt practical through filtration Lesson 8 - Separating salt from water practical through evaporation Lesson 9 - Level assessed task on dissolving Lesson 10 - End of topic test with markscheme

This lesson gets students to understand through experimentation how the basic safety features of a car work by increasing the time over which an accident takes place: . airbags .seatbelts . crumple zones Students play with force and momentum calculations to help explain the safety features. They start by calculating the force exerted on an egg when it hits a brick wall and when it hits a towel (best to go outside for this one). This lesson worked well for my low ability year 11 students as it was very visual for them and they could really relate to the content and examples.
