Ten differentiated colour codes exercises, students to calculate the resistor values using the colour code provided.
Differentiation:
Worksheets 1 to 5: Some bands are already identified
Worksheets 6 to 10: No bands are identified (some unusual values also included)
This resource consists of:
Two colour worksheets showing images of components and a blank space to the right: students to cut out symbols of components and place in the corresponding location. There are two sheets covering 40 electronic components including input/output devices, semiconductors and passive components. Answer sheets are included.
In addition an A3 poster is provided showing component images and the symbols that represent them. This can be printed out or projected onto board.
40 cut out cards with images of a variety of insulators and conductors. Students to sort cards into: Insulator, Conductor and Not quite sure and stick or place over spaces on A3 sheet. The Not quite sure allows the opportunity for students to consider the effects of moisture or other external factors.
There are more cards than spaces on the worksheet allowing the resource to be used with the same class more than once by selecting alternative cards.
Ideal for an easy starter or plenary activity. The sheet includes six images of tools for students to identify, name and give an example use. The following tools are inlcuded:
Tenon saw
Hacksaw
Junior hacksaw
Handsaw
Coping Saw
Mitre saw
A complete lesson with the aim of raising awareness of the sugar content of processed foods. Students will learn how to read nutritional information on packaged products and determine their sugar content.
To reinforce the high levels of sugar present, students will compare the sugar content of foods with their equivalent in sugar cubes, smarties and biscuits based on a practical investigation.
Three worksheets: students to identify tools used in the construction of electronic circuits and state their purpose. The worksheets include the following tools:
Soldering iron
