This worksheet is designed to prepare students for the Specific Heat Capacity required practical in AQA GCSE Physics / Combined Science. It focuses on building the skills needed to tackle 6-mark extended response questions with confidence.
What’s included:
A clear exam-style question based on past paper language.
Success criteria and command word reminders to guide structured answers.
A targeted fill-in-the-gaps model answer with word bank support.
A complete model answer written at Level 3 standard (aligned with AQA mark scheme).
A “write it better” task with vague/wrong answers for students to improve – tackling misconceptions directly.
Keywords box for retrieval practice and revision.
Why it works:
Supports students in writing answers in a clear sequence using correct scientific terminology.
Reinforces accurate use of apparatus names (joulemeter, thermometer, balance) and the calculation 𝐸=𝑚𝑐Δ𝜃
Differentiation built in: scaffolding for less confident students, challenge for higher ability.
Perfect for exam preparation, homework, revision, or in-class practice.
