This lesson is 1 in a series of 5 that expertly and fully delivers all the points within the NEW KS3 specification SoW on the “light” topic. I find that this powerpoint and the interesting activities keep lower level students engaged during the lesson while allowing differentiation for higher achievers.

STARTER Pupils will start the lessons by thinking/working in pairs to solve a picture puzzle and discovering what the lesson is about. After revealing the title and lesson outcomes students self assess against their current understanding of this topic. Next there is a student lead laser light demonstration as they begin to identify the key properties of light. MAIN The slides then move on to lead the students in comparing light and sound. They will delve a little deeper into this by watching a video, discussing it and answering key questions. MAIN Next, the lesson focuses on numeracy questions based around the speed equation and the speed of light. Once this has been completed they can self assess their work using the answers provided. MAIN Students study a slide which shows the sun, an apple and a girl and asks them, how is it that the girl can see the apple? This leads to a discussion and the revealing of how rays of light move and reflect off the apple and into the girl’s eyes so that she can see the apple. MAIN The next activity involves the students grouping objects into luminous or non-luminous. There is differentiation via an activity sheet that can be provided to less able students if required. MAIN Students consider what a shadow is and how it is formed. This leads into a practical where students investigate how the size and position of shadows depends on the position of the light source and the distance to the object that creates the shadow. PLENARY In the plenary activity pupils complete a quiz which will uncover how much they have learnt during the lesson. Students who need further support set themselves homework to enhance learning of today’s lesson. EXTENSION ACTIVITIES These are provided just in case any group requires them. All resources are included in this great lesson, there is nothing for you to do but order the equipment for the demo and class practical (simply hand your technician the printed off kit list.doc) and if necessary photocopy the activity sheet.

Dangers of radiation. A complete and ready to deliver high quality GCSE lesson from Barclayfox. There is nothing to do ! Even if you do not have time to look at it in advance it is not a problem as the PPT will lead you smoothly through the lesson. Lesson objectives: Understand the dangers of “ionising” radiation and the damage they can cause (ManKinD). Know how to safely handle radioactive sources and protect yourself (TarDiS) Understand contamination and irradiation. Explain how ideas about the world can change. Please note: This lesson does not cover “uses” as they are covered in the Barclayfox lesson 8 of this topic. This lesson is called “Nuclear radiation uses in medicine”. My lessons cover the whole of this “atomic structure” topic but do not blindly follow the textbook order instead they use a structure that has proved highly successful over many years. Uses in medicine lesson is here: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/nuclear-radiation-uses-in-medicine-sterilisation-diagnosis-treatment-tracers-radiotherapy-etc-11703961 This carefully crafted lesson is over 30 slides long, and is full of learning activities some are noted below: * ALL answers are provided throughout! * Starter - recaps previous lessons (with answers). * Paired work activities. * Scientific literacy activity. * Homeworks - 2 - you choose. * Questions. * Theory slides (carefully sculpted, interspaced with learning activities, not ‘death by powerpoint’). * Video clip link (carefully selected – this alone can save you a lot of searching). * Gap fill activity. * Unscramble the words race. * Plenary quiz. * Student self-assessment versus objectives activity.
