A list of equations taken straight from the spec that students have to remember.

A student checklist that can be stuck in books and ticked as the course progresses. I also ask student to write the checklist code in their books.

A plan using the idea of teachertoolkit that science teachers can use to help plan science practicals and investigations. This could be especially useful for new science teachers

A checklist for AQA waves gcse spec points for students to revise from. 4.12.17 - V2 has been added as for some reason I missed aspects off now ray diagrams, colour and black body radiation has been added

A 20 quiz on SHC, SLH, density and Kinetic Theory. Supports the idea of reflection and metacognition

Students sort the statements into a table to decide if it is a property of solid liquids or gases. Time to complete 5-10 mins

Differentiated Science Entry Level practical writing frame used for AQA TDAs

A simple knowledge organiser to use along side AQA Physics - Particle Model Print PDF - 2 to a page (I cant delete the 3rd page) so be aware to only print pages 1-2

A retrieval roulette that is loosely based on the kerboodle book 2 year 8 scheme. Any feedback - @TJohns85 A Y8 retrieval roulette I have made using the template designed by Adam Boxer ‘@adamboxer1’

A quiz for Y11 to help remember the physics equations

Student practice rearranging a = (v-u) /t and V2-U2 = 2as. All based on superhero examples

A game to play with students all you need is a die. It will test students maths skills and throw in a bit of luck. You have £5000 to spend on sustainable energy developments. Cost are in the headings in the table. You must spend all the £5000. Each day will start with a roll of the dice. What ever the number lands on determines the days energy. Profitable = times the profit amount by how many of the energy type you have Broken and Damaged = two options every blank out the type for how ever many days or fix them straight away. The winner will be the person that earns the most money at the end of the game. See the example in the table below. The total for day 1 would be: Profit = 30 + 20 = £50 Broken = -£150 Total = -£100 Chance to buy more if needed every 7 days and add up totals Extra weeks can be printed from page 3

Engage your students as they learn all about volcanoes as they make an interactive foldable volcano that can be stuck in their books. This pack comes with: 1) the foldable template 2) student instruction sheet you can print or project 3) a step by step guide with pictures to support your visual learners 4) two pages of volcano questions which can be used as a lesson worksheet or as a HW to support extra learning and research including space for self assessment and how to improve/move the learner forward 5) Answers and support to go with the student worksheet. this resource can be linked to my foldable structure of the Earth that can be found here: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/create-a-model-earth-foldable-3d-cross-section-interactive-notebook-for-geography-and-physics-11420503 Thanks for looking SEE MY OTHER RESOURCES PREMIUM + FREE IN MY TES SHOP https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/TRJ Regards, TRJ

A keyword game to suit your needs. Either a loop or cut and stick

20 ideas that range from investigations to one off lessons to making Christmas as scientific as possible. Ideas include how to brighten up your room/lab with science themed decorations, investigate factors that effect poor old Father Christmas from doing his job. Most ideas are linked to Chemistry and Physics but would be appropriate for any teacher of any specialism to use throughout the keystages.

This foldable comes in 4 parts, all designed and created by TRJ. Learners should be encouraged with describe and explain how energy is lost and can be prevented in the space within the foldable - along with this literacy focus there is also a student worksheet attached with calculation questions - this could easily be completed for a HW. The design itself is slightly editable so if you are just after the design of the house, it could be used for many different purposes. thanks for looking, For other foldables and resources see my shop https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/TRJ

Match sure your KS3 Science students 'master' all the key ideas they need before they start on their GCSE journey. It will support conversations with students to what they have to do to improve/next steps as well as your report writing and parents evenings. This PLC is already formatted with the statements/Can do/key idea statements all you have to do is add numbers: 1) can not do yet (red) 2) nearly there (orange) 3) mastered (green) 4) Away/absent for the lessons covering the key idea so need to catch up (grey) This resources covers all Biology, Chemistry and Physics topics, as well as working scientifically and other key skills (EG: graph drawing, calculations and maths skills, homework quality). You can also edit/add sections to suit your own teaching needs.

AQA Triology GCSE Physics Content, required practical, skills and calculations PLC: The new trilogy physics content broken down into 'can do' statements. Teachers can RAG rate student progress to highlight strengths and weaknesses on this already formatted spreadsheet. All you have to do is put a number in and it will change colour automatically, saving you time and effort. Also include is a required practical tracker, a trilogy Physics required practical assessment booklet, a physics calculation recall tracker and a general scientific skills PLC tracker. PLC trackers are included for Force (motion), Forces (Interactions), Forces (Levers/Gears), waves, energy, circuit electricity, domestic mains electricity, static electricity, energy, magnetism, particle model, atomic model and radiation, key skill areas, calculations This resource should help you track student progress until they master each element of the physics trilogy specification. The tracker will support written reports, inform students of the next steps and could even be used at parents evenings to inform parents of progress.
