Students make 2 dice, one with names of metals, one with 'oxygen', 'sulphur' and 'chlorine'. They roll the dice, and write out the word equations. Nice introduction to word equations for KS3.

This is a worksheet in a series made to summarise and recap topics from GCSE Physics. All worksheets are based on BBC bitesize pages with the same name, with a QR code to guide students to the correct page. All the answers to the front page can be found there. There is then a 15 mark exam-style question to test their new knowledge. Every worksheet in the series is out of 15 so students can track their progress. I've used them with year 11, and set them as homework, that way they are forced to revise early! This is designed to help revise for the Edexcel iGCSE in Physics, but is fairly universal and should fit with any exam board. Includes PDFs for easy printing, and word documents for editing.

A worksheet on the forces on rockets.

Students have the dates, events and names for 6 landmark events in the history of space exploration, they need to match them up. This comes with an answer sheet, and some answer slides to display with pictures. This is a great start to the satellites topic, and puts the space topic into a human context.

A powerpoint working through the derivation of pressure and kinetic theory equation of gases. This can be quite complex, so the powerpoint works through step by step to make this easier.

My lesson on ideal gas laws. Includes Charles and Boyles. I usually work through the practicals first, then use this at the end.

My lesson on introduction to stationary / standing waves. Talks students through the start of the topic, including asking them to draw waves moving in opposite directions to describe how they are formed.

Print these on A3 paper. Place them round the room. Students can visit each one, read what people have written, and write their own ideas and opinions down. They make a great display when they're finished.

Deriving the PV = 1/3 Nmc2 equation in 7 simple steps. Pupil either follow the rules to derive the equation, or (for higher level challenge) reorder the steps, then fill them in. This is a derivation that they are required to know and this is designed to simplify a complex idea! Please review.

A Tarsia puzzle on Specific heat capacity. Includes units, and equation questions to test concept and maths. Works well as a class competition, or would make a nice display. Pupils cut out puzzle pieces to complete one each I’ve included a solution as well.

A game based on Battle ships. (Alternative name: Bulbs and Batt(ery) ships?) “Ammeter on A3” “Voltmeter from B1 to B3” I used this as an entire lesson’s activity, pitting my students against each other in a knock out tournament. The game reinforces and assesses their knowledge of voltage and current in series and parallel. It can be adapted to differentiate by giving them suggested boards and including some numbers. I’ve included a cheat sheet page for this purpose. How to set up: Design your board. Work out the voltage and current at different points on your board. How to play: The aim of the game is to correctly draw your opponent’s circuit. On your go, choose a square and ask for the current, or choose 2 squares and ask for the voltage across them. Your opponent has to be honest and correct! You can ask 1 question per go and take it in turns until someone can correctly draw the circuit. Teacher instructions: Pupils should be in pairs or 4s to play this game. Each group will need 2 game boards, 2 sets of tokens and 2 answer sheets. I suggest printing and laminating the game board page and cutting out the tokens, and then printing disposable answer sheets for them to draw and scribble on. You could even use Velcro on the back of the tokens so that they stick to the board.
