Complete and ready to use lesson covering: Skeleton + Joints + Muscles This is a KS3 lesson, in this lessons students learn among other things: To describe the functions of the skeleton and the role of joints. To name bones and understand where within the skeleton specific bones are located. To understand the different types of joints. To investigate and also explain antagonistic muscle pairs. Activities for students include: 3 short starters based on picture for thinking, SPaG/literacy and thinking about what the skeleton is for (use 1 or all as you see fit). Differentiated activity sheets. All answers are provided throughout. Gap fills. Video. Animated game - via a link to an excellent site that is well worth finding ! Questioning (all answers provided). Label the skeleton activity sheet (diagrams and answers are included in this download). Joints gap fill. Practical experiment. Plenary quiz. Further information: This lesson covers 3 topics, skeleton and joints and muscles. Consequently it covers all the important points but is not as detailed as spending 1 full hour lesson on each of these 3 topics (3 hours total). This lesson is very useful, even more so if you want to get ahead and build a buffer to allow for a revision lesson before the test or end of year exams, or if you have fallen behind were you should be in comparison to your teaching rota, or in case students find things more difficult later. If you need deep detail and to spend a total of 3 hours on these three topics then you could easily add some of your own content to this powerpoint. Happy teaching !

ENERGY - THE LANGUAGE HAS CHANGED: Tes is littered with energy resources teaching to the old spec. it would be wrong to use these to teach with today (some even say they are new spec. 9-1 – but they not). Please don’t risk teaching your classes incorrectly ! This resource is an engaging energy circus practical experiment for students. It allows students to learn the subject properly and clearly with differentiated and unique activity sheets you cannot get anywhere else. WHY BUY THIS ? Many many hours of effort went in to writing these unique and accurate resources Tried and trusted, differentiated and complete. You can rely on this activity to give an accurate and superior learning experience. WHAT DO I GET? High ability activity sheet – for use during the circus practical. Medium/lower ability activity sheet – for use during the circus practical. Answer sheet. Equipment list (to give to your technicians) HOW DO I USE IT? Teach the students about the 8 stores and the 4 transfers and then let them do the highly engaging and accurate to 9-1 spec activities as the main part of your lesson. Then self or peer mark the sheets (answers provided). OR, FIND A FULLY COMPLETE AND READY TO GO LESSON HERE: Energy stores and transfers 9-1 spec AGES Activity for ages 11 to 16 where ever you live (so KS3/KS4 and USA grades 6 to 10).

FREE help sheet for teachers or students on energy stores, transfers, carriers, pathways and energy diagrams. This is specifically for the new GCSE 9-1 specification (which can be confusing). ENERGY - THE LANGUAGE HAS CHANGED: On tes there are many many energy lessons and resources teaching to the old spec. which are no longer applicable if taught today – which is a polite way of saying they are wrong. There are even some resources I’ve looked at that claim to be new spec. 9-1 – but they are wrong too, even BBC Bitesize is getting some aspects a bit confused. Please don’t risk teaching your classes incorrectly ! This resource is a FREE help sheet for science teachers which explains it all. This help sheet is clear and simple and free !

Hints and tips on how to fall asleep and get good quality sleep. This is not a lesson as such. However students who are short of sleep find it very very difficult to learn, so hopefully this will help them. I wrote this as one of my colleagues (yes he is a teacher!) is having a problem sleeping, and several of my students complain about not being able to sleep / lack of sleep. So I hope this will help them. It’s aimed as my adult colleague but these word docs can be very easily modified and given to students… Best wishes Barclayfox

FREE lesson, so you can see the quality of my “Barclayfox” lessons. Ready to deliver high quality KS3 lesson from Barclayfox. This lesson introduces waves by teaching KS3 learners about: Waves, wave types, functions, wavelength, amplitude, peak, trough, longitudinal waves, transverse waves, and superposition etc. Like all my barclayfox lessons this is a complete and ready to use high quality lesson. I have used this lesson and improved it many times with my different classes across ten+ years. There is nothing to do but give it a quick look through it. But, if you (like me!) cannot resist making a change its modular nature makes it very quick and easy to modify it to your exact requirements. No marking for you ! :-) All answers for all activities are included in the PPT to allow peer and/or self-assessment to reduce your workload ! I’ve spent a lot of time on this improving it after lessons spread over 10+ years, I hope you find this FREE lesson useful in your teaching. If you find it useful please encourage me with some positive feedback :-D If you like this lesson there are many more like it in both style and quality my shop, here’s the link: /teaching-resources/shop/barclayfox Thank you for your time, have a great day !
