KS3 Science: Physics Modules
http://www.webschool.org.uk/science/ks3new/sowks3.html KS3 Science: Physics Modules Teacher's Guide 2004/5 (All Modules) This scheme of work is being entirely updated. It uses the QCA notation for the Units and most of the topic headings. The learning objectives are linked very closely to those used in QCA, and are related to the National Curriculum objectives. The resources used are based mainly on the new Exploring Science resources, and the notation used for the resources is that used on the CD RoM, for all the worksheets. If you are lucky enough to use an interactive whiteboard, then these 'lessons' can be brought alive, without the need to kill another 'Amazon Forest ' with endless paper worksheets. Share the links and websites with the class....these are not meant to be just for teachers! The website, and the links, are extremely useful for homework/project activities. www.webschool.org.uk/science/ks3new/index.html |

PhysicsQuests (High School Physics)
http://physicsquest.homestead.com/index.html PhysicsQuests A WebQuest, according to Bernie Dodge, the originator of the WebQuest concept from San Diego State University, "is an inquiry-oriented activity in which most or all of the information used by learners is drawn from the Web. WebQuests are designed to use learners' time well, to focus on using information rather than on looking for it, and to support learners' thinking at the levels of analysis, synthesis, and evaluation." The PhysicsQuests adapt the main guidelines of a WebQuest. They can be used as extension activities to tie a particular Physics topic to a common experience such as electricity, roller coasters or to reinforce concepts learned in the classroom. Students work individually. |

A is for Atom - 1953 film
http://www.archive.org/movies/details-db.php?collection=prelinger&collectionid=17225 A is for Atom - 1953 film Animated classic presenting what an atom is, how energy is released from certain kinds of atoms, the peacetime uses of atomic energy and the byproducts of nuclear fission. A is for Atom is primarily a pop-science film, intended to combat fear of atomic energy by explaining how it works scientifically. The result is an impersonal atom, less Oppenheimer's "destroyer of worlds," than a useful friend. The chain-reaction of atomic fission looks no more frightening than a game of neutron pool, and deadly radiation is similar to an ordinary X-ray, and kept safely behind concrete walls. Presents in lay terms what an atom is, how energy is released from certain kinds of atoms, the peace-time uses of atomic energy and the by-products of nuclear fission. |

Potential Energy - Lesson Plan
http://jersey.uoregon.edu/vlab/PotentialEnergy/index.html Potential Energy - Lesson Plan Potential energy exists whenever an object which has mass has a position within a force field. The most everyday example of this is the position of objects in the earth's gravitational field. The potential energy of an object in this case is given by the relation: PE = mgh An example of just one of the pages at the Virtual Physics Lab. |
