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. As teachers we all work ridiculously long hours each week. Give yourself a break, spend some life with your loved ones, press buy now! If you like this lesson please leave a review. This lesson is part of a Bundle/series, and you may wish to buy others from the series: 0. Bundle – contains all lessons (if available not all series are bundled) 1.

Light, refraction, concave lens, convex lenses, refractive index and calculations. Complete lesson.

(0)
This lesson is 3 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 its interesting activities keep lower level students engaged during the lesson while allowing differentiation for higher achievers. I’m sure you’ll find it useful. For more lessons designed to meet the new KS3 and KS4 specifications please type Barclayfox into the tes resources search engine to see all my lessons. STARTER Pupils will start the lessons by thinking/working in pairs to solve a picture puzzle to find out what today’s lesson is about. After revealing the title and lesson outcomes students self assess against their current understanding of this topic. Next there is a scientific literacy Q&A activity to ensure all students learn the key words required to understand this lesson. MAIN The slides then move on to lead the students into understanding refraction. TTN is introduced as a means of working out whether refraction with bend light towards or away from the normal. Students then undertake an activity and apply TTN to predict the way the light bends at various boundaries between various mediums, they then self-assess using the answers provided. MAIN Next, the lesson focuses on two types of lenses, concave and convex. Diagrams are clear and help get the key points across succinctly and accurately. Students are shown incident rays into a concave lens and then try to predict and draw the ray diagram for the refracted rays. MAIN Students do a class practical with ray boxes and glass blocks to investigate refraction. Students share their results and observations and then undertake a quiz to bring out the key points from the experiment. MAIN Students do a gap fill activity – this can be differentiated by providing or not providing the missing words, they then and self-assess or peer assess using the answers provided. MAIN Refractive index is introduced and students undertake some calculations based around refractive index. This is peer-assessed using the model answers provided. PLENARY Each student self-assesses versus each of the objectives and marks their progress on their progress bars. EXTENSION ACTIVITIES A variety of activities are provided just in case any of your groups requires them either this year or in future years. All resources are included in this great lesson, there is nothing for you to do but order the equipment for the class practical (simply hand your technician the printed off kit list.doc). Thank you for looking, your feedback is much appreciated! :) Lesson 3 in a series of 5. Happy teaching, Barclayfox.

STARTER Pupils will start the lessons by thinking/working in pairs and thinking back to the previous lesson to solve a gap fill. After revealing the title and lesson outcomes students self assess against their current understanding of this topic. Next there is a scientific literacy activity to ensure all students learn the key words required to understand this lesson. MAIN The slides then move on to lead the students onto the law of reflection. They will delve a little deeper into this by answering key questions from a diagram. MAIN Next, the lesson focuses on reflections in mirrors and how this works. Diagrams are clear and help get the key points across accurately. Students calculate the angle of incidence and self-assess. Next they look at specular and diffuse reflections. MAIN Students study a slide which shows a mirror and virtual image. This leads to a discussion and the revealing of how rays of light move and reflect off the mirror to create the virtual image. Student answer several questions focused on the above. MAIN Differentiation, Kinaesthetic up and about OR ray box practical - depending on which you feel is best matched to the abilities of your particular class. In the Kinaesthetic activity students follow the instructions and throw, or roll, a ball against a wall and compare the angles of incidence with their respective angles of reflection. In the light box practical they fire rays of light at a mirror and record incidence and reflection angles. These activities reinforce the law of reflection in student’s minds. PLENARY Each student self-assesses versus each of the objectives. EXTENSION ACTIVITIES These are provided just in case any group requires them.

I find that this PowerPoint and its varied and interesting activities keep lower level students engaged while allowing differentiation for higher achievers – see below for details. I’m sure you’ll find it useful. This lesson is 5 in a series of 5 that fully delivers all the points within the NEW KS3 specification SoW on the “light” topic. For more lessons designed to meet the new KS3 and KS4 specifications please type Barclayfox into the tes resources search engine to see all my lessons. STARTER Pupils become engaged in the lessons by thinking/working in pairs to solve 5 anagrams to find out what today’s lesson is about (you could offer a prize for the winners). After revealing the title and lesson outcomes students self assess against their current understanding of this topic. Next there is a scientific literacy Q and A activity to ensure all students learn the key words required to understand this lesson. MAIN Homework is set and then students use the activity sheet (built into the PowerPoint – you just print it out) to work in pairs and label different parts of the eye, differentiation - higher ability explain the function of the parts. This can be self or peer assessed using the answers on the slide in the PowerPoint. MAIN Students undertake a matching activity to match the names of parts of the eye to their functions. This can be peer marked, and returned so that students can correct any errors / improve their work. MAIN Students recall the colours in the spectrum of white light, and this is developed into looking at the frequencies of the light and the relationship between colour and frequency. A gap fill activity promotes understanding of several key points and is self-assessed. MAIN Students watch a (carefully selected) short video that explain how our eyes see colour and then they have fun watching another video that tests their individual ability to see colours. PLENARY Students answer 5 questions by matching and then self-assess their understanding of the desired outcomes of today’s lesson now they have reached the end of the lesson. They compare their final understanding to their previously self-assessed understanding at the start of the lesson. Students who need further support set themselves homework to improve their learning of the content covered today. EXTENSION ACTIVITIES A variety of activities are provided just in case any of your groups requires them either this year or in future years.
