The idea works that students should know the core building blocks around the edge of the page.
The task therefore is to work inwards and begin to summarise these key points in the middle, only focusing on the things they have forgotten.
The final task is to get this all on to a postcard - their revision notes to take away! This makes it all manageable for the student.
This is one topic only and the full unit can be downloaded as a complete file.
50 demonstrations and experiments that have been used to make science engaging and memorable. There is a range of practical demonstrations and investigations for biology, chemistry and physics for different scientific topics for key stage 2, 3, 4 and 5.
Topics include chemical reactions, nuclear fission, nuclear decay, half-life, life cycle of the star, food and digestion, sound, waves, earth and its atmosphere, speed, velocity, acceleration, DNA, genetics, cells, momentum, energy, efficiency, combustion, respiration, inertia, change of state, forces, magnets, electricity, polymers, super cooling, pykrete, seed dispersal, moments, heat transfers, convection, terminal velocity, rate of reaction, rockets, pH, acids and alkalis and pressure.
A set of three planning cards that support students through the necessary steps to complete a successful investigation.
Steps include:
- Forming a hypothesis
- Research
- Method
- Variables - Independent, dependent and controls.
- Risk Assessment
- Conclusion
- Graphs
These can be printed on A1 sheets to make as a classroom display. They can also be printed as A3, laminated and then students can use post it notes to complete.
This is designed to familiarise students with the how science works terminology and format for laying out a clear practical.
AQA Physics Additional (P2) Revision Flash Cards:
Question one slide and then answer on the reverse. Focuses students on the key questions in the various units covered. These can be printed or downloaded on to a phone to allow students to regularly access them.
Topics covered: speed, acceleration, forces, resultant force, terminal velocity, mass, weight, stopping distances, crumple zones, work done, kinetic energy, potential energy, momentum, static electricity, electrical components, current, voltage, resistance, series, parallel, circuits, ac, dc, plugs, fuses, RCCB, power, charge, atomic structure, radioactivity, alpha, beta, gamma, fission, fusion, nuclear, reactor, half life, ionisation, star cycle, red giant, super red giant
This task is designed around the fact that students need to "learn" the key information. This therefore is given and the students need to learn it. They can make notes in the space inside, but by the end of the task can only make notes on a postcard/post-it.
This is based around study skills and making revision notes - you don't have to copy out the book.
Topics include: conduction, convection, radiation, heat transfers, waves, sound, reflection, refraction, energy, energy resources, solar, power station, national grid, transformers, power, electricity and more.
AQA Physics Further Additional (P3) Revision Flash Cards:
Question one slide and then answer on the reverse. Focuses students on the key questions in the various units covered. These can be printed or downloaded on to a phone to allow students to regularly access them.
Topics covered: x-rays, ultrasound, ct scanner, snells law, refractive index, endoscope, electromagnet, moments, centre of mass, loud speaker, lens, converging, diverge, magnets, solenoid, motor, electromagnetic induction, vision, stability, pressure, pendulum, efficiency, moments, balance, refraction,
Revision loop card activity for Core Physics. Students need to cut out the cards and then sequence them so that the question on one card matches the answer on the next one. If the student get them correct, it will form a loop.
The answer sheet is also provided so that you can quickly check response and identify any mistakes made by the student(s).
A great activity to challenge students - who is quickest; to assess students and highlight misconceptions.
Loop cards include questions about:
Heat transfers, conduction, convection, radiation, emitters, absorbers, specific heat capacity, density
