This resource uses a visual way to show the speed of light to students. This includes the lesson plan, experiment and Lesson Presentation for the lesson. The lesson objectives for this lesson are: Green: I can do the other two and can calculate the speed of light. Amber: I can explain what the speed of light is and how it is used. Red: I can explain what the speed of light is. This incorporates Einstein's theory of Relativity. This resource has been aimed at the high attaining students as it gives them an experiment that has been designed to stimulate them. This resource is best used at the end of the topic on light so they understand the basics of how light waves work.

This is a pack that contains two lessons, one practical and one theory. The theory lesson contains information and activities covering: Scalars, Vectors, acceleration and scale diagrams. The practical lesson works on testing acceleration due to gravity. This involves light gates and card. The practical lesson contains a foundation and higher work book with guides students through the thought process for planning a practical experiment. Both of these lessons have been used in a real life classroom and contain aspects of the specifications for AQA, OCR and Edexcel exam boards for physics.

This is a 3 page staged activity that includes questions that involves Differentiated denominators. Improper fractions and mixed fractions. Starting off with the same denominators this moves on to then look at different denominators, before then finally moving onto simplification.

This is a worksheet that allows for students to work out the circumference and area of various circles. The worksheet is set out in a table and attached to this is an answer sheet.

This is a staged worksheet that is aimed at multiplying and dividing fractions. Starting off with the same denominator to moving into more complex sums.

Made for Higher Tier and contains all the components of a cell that may be asked about in a GCSE unit 2 examination. Could be a useful starter for a class or as a short revision activity.

This is a resource designed to help students research space and this contains cards for the 8 planets, the main star (the sun) and the only dwarf planet in the solar system, Pluto. This is a small activity and is a different way of presenting research which is a way of getting students to find information and learn to separate the useful information from the not useful information.
