A-Level Physics COMPLETE Year 1 (AS) Scheme of work, 80 powerpoints including 6 required practicals

(15)
This is a bundle of all of the 4 main units of the A-Level Scheme of Work (Year 1) - fully up to date with the latest 2016 syllabus including: Section 1 (Chapters 1 - 3) - Particles and Radiation Section 2 (Chapters 4 - 5) - Waves and Optics Section 3 (Chapters 6 - 11) - Mechanics and Materials Section 4 (Chapters 12 - 13) - Electricity Every single lesson in this 80 lesson scheme is step-by step explained with powerpoints for each lesson, including resource ideas and experiments and the 6 required practicals. All links made clear to the latest AQA syllabus This is everything that a teacher or school needs to teach the entire AS course (Year 1 A-Level AQA). Designed around the AQA syllabus this scheme would be invaluable to anyone teaching any of the main exam boards (OCR and Edexcel). Chapter 1 is also available FREE if you would like to sample the quality of this resource. Every individual lesson is available to download at ÂŁ2/lesson - Chapters are almost half price and this huge bundle of every chapter works out at only 50p per lesson PLUS information and guidance on the six Year 1 required practicals. All links, page references and lesson codes are from the latest (2015/2016) Oxford University Press book (Both AS and A-Level) Version history: v2.00 - All book codes for homework linked to latest 2016 AQA book v2.01 - Various grammar corrections; simplification of Kaon/Pion table in lesson on particle interactions v2.02 - Addition of a worked example and summary to lesson 3.1, deleted a corrupted file from the diffraction grating folder v2.03 Typo on 11.4 corrected v2.11 - Revamp of chapter 8 v2.12 Renamed a file that was too long, causing issues.
