Electricity: Resistors Ohm's Law

(1)
Complete No-Prep lesson with exam questions, tasks and answers on Resistors and Ohm’s Law (ohmic and non-ohmic conductors, filament lamps, diodes, LDRs and thermistors) for AQA GCSE (9-1) Science / Physics. This is the third lesson in the teaching sequence. This lesson covers all of AQA GCSE Physics 4.2.1.4 / Combined Science 6.2.1.4 theory sections but does not give instructions, sample results etc for the required practical. As a Secondary Science teacher, Deputy Headteacher, writer and examiner for many years I make high quality no-prep lessons so busy teachers can teach outstanding lessons without spending hours planning. This high quality lesson includes explanations, different types of in-lesson assessment (all with answers) and unique exam questions. My lessons are ideal for non-Physicists - as a Biologist who retrained as a Physics teacher I know how to take learners on a journey that builds up their understanding step by step, while still going into a lot of depth. The preview video shows a representative sample of slides from the resource so that you get a good idea of what it includes before you buy. What’s Included: • Starter / Do Now Activity • Explanation slides in “chunked” sections with animated diagrams. • Worked examples of calculations / questions. • Multiple questions in different question styles and difficulties - no need for worksheets. Each “chunked” explanation section typically includes a set of “learning check / quick questions” followed by a set of in-depth questions on the learning from that “chunk” of the lesson. All questions have answers. • Exam-style questions on the whole lesson at the end of the lesson- these are unique, based on real exam questions but not just copied from exam boards. • Answers for all questions • All easily editable to adapt to your teaching or to use in existing lessons. • Slightly humorous, at points, if you like that sort of thing. Learning objectives: Describe that for some resistors resistance is constant as current changes, but for others resistance changes as current changes. Describe Ohm’s Law and what is meant by an ohmic conductor. Explain the shape of the current-potential difference graphs for fixed resistors, lamps, diodes. Describe how resistance changes with light or temperature in LDRs and thermistors, and their uses. The lesson was written for AQA GCSE Science / Physics but is very likely to be applicable to other exam specifications. Please leave a rating / review and all other feedback gratefully received!

The rest of 4.4.2.1 is in the previous lessons “Radioactive Decay and Nuclear Equations” and “Activity and Half Life”. The exam spec does not make reference to some aspects that I feel are important and / or engaging when learning about radiation (e.g. effects on the body, Chernobyl) or only includes it in GCSE Physics and not combined science and so I have included some clearly marked “optional” sections.

All questions have answers. • Exam-style questions on the whole lesson at the end of the lesson- these are unique, based on real exam questions but not just copied from exam boards. • Answers for all questions • All easily editable to adapt to your teaching or to use in existing lessons. • Slightly humorous, at points, if you like that sort of thing. Learning objectives: Define “melting point”, “boiling point” and “freezing point” explaining the change of state that occurs at each. Explain the shape of a heating / cooling curve, including by explaining what is happening to particles at each stage and what latent heat is. Note: this lesson does not include Specific Latent Heat of Fusion / Vaporisation, which is covered in a subsequent lesson. Written for AQA GCSE Science and Physics but likely to be applicable to other exam specifications and certainly adaptable for a more able KS3 class.

Complete No-Prep lesson with exam questions, tasks and answers on Internal Energy for AQA GCSE (9-1) Science / Physics. This lesson covers all of AQA GCSE Physics 4.3.2.1 / Combined Science 6.3.2.1 As a Secondary Science teacher and Deputy Headteacher for many years I make high quality no-prep lessons so busy teachers can teach outstanding lessons without spending hours planning. This high quality lesson includes explanations, different types of in-lesson assessment (all with answers) and unique exam questions. My lessons are ideal for non-Physicists - as a Biologist who retrained as a Physics teacher I know how to take learners on a journey that builds up their understanding step by step, while still going into a lot of depth. The preview video shows a representative sample of slides from the resource so that you get a good idea of what it includes before you buy. What’s Included: • Starter / Do Now Activity • Explanation slides in “chunked” sections with animated diagrams. • Multiple questions in different question styles and difficulties - no need for worksheets. Each “chunked” explanation section typically includes a set of “learning check / quick questions” followed by a set of in-depth questions on the learning from that “chunk” of the lesson. All questions have answers. • Exam-style questions on the whole lesson at the end of the lesson- these are unique, based on real exam questions but not just copied from exam boards. • Answers for all questions • All easily editable to adapt to your teaching or to use in existing lessons. • Slightly humorous, at points, if you like that sort of thing. Learning objectives: Define Internal Energy. Explain why heating a substance increases its internal energy. Explain why heating a substance until it changes state increases its internal energy.
