Description
Two action-packed, engaging and differentiated lessons - Switches in Series and Parallel Circuits and Ohms Law
This bundle contains material for 4 hours teaching with 20 learning outcomes over 24 engaging, challenging and differentiated resources to enable the teacher to select and totally bespoke their lesson according to pupil ability, time available for the topic and focus of departmental/school policy. Resources not used in the lesson can be additional homework or used for pre-examination revision.
The activities include literacy, group work, peer assessment, self-assessment, pupil response to assessment, feedback to teacher on pupil learning via the exit ticket quiz and practicals.
An easy to follow one-page flow chart lesson plan for each of the two topics indicates where logical choices between resources can be made and indicates whether each activity includes literacy, oracy or AFL.
Objectives
- To know that switches open and close circuits.
- To know that one switch controls all the components in a series circuit.
- To know that components can be controlled individually by switches in a parallel circuit.
- To be able to position switches correctly in simple and complex complex parallel circuits.
- To know that metal ions cause resistance.
- To be able to explain why some materials have a high resistance and others a low resistance.
- To understand why resistance reduces current.
- To understand that collisions between metal ions and electrons releases energy.
- To understand that appliances are made using materials with different resistances to produce different effects.
- To use Ohms Law to find resistance.
