Investigating Potential Energy and Energy Transfer NGSS MS PS3-2 CER
These engaging lessons (GOOGLE and PDF versions) allow students to develop an understanding of the relationship between gravitational potential energy, the mass of an object, and the height of the object, and also how energy is transferred when two objects interact. This activity supports the NGSS standard MS PS3-2A review (or introduction) of the key terms kinetic energy, potential energy, the law of conservation of energy, the connection between force and energy, and mass is given.Students wil

Heat transfer (conduction, convection, radiation) investigations NGSS MS PS3-3
These engaging lessons (GOOGLE and PDF versions) allow students to develop an understanding of how heat is transferred by conduction, convection, and radiation.These lessons are introduced with an anchor phenomenon which is revisited at the end of the unit. Common misconceptions about heat transfer are also addressed in these activities. This activity supports the NGSS standard MS PS3-3Optional slides are included for teachers planning to have students design a solar oven after this unit. Stude

Investigating Newton's Third Law of Motion MS PS2-1
Students move through five stations that guide them to “discover” Newton’s third law (GOOGLE and PDF versions). Students then complete a summary worksheet where they identify the action and reaction involved for each station. Next they apply their knowledge of Newton’s third law to three new situations. This can be used as a formative assessment of student understanding.These activities support the NGSS standard MS PS2-1 Easily obtainable materials are used for these stations.Possible student re

Investigating Newton’s Second Law NGSS MS PS2-2 CER
These investigations (GOOGLE and PDF versions) allow students to develop an understanding of the relationship between mass, sum of the forces, and change of motion. As students are performing the investigations, the equation for Newton’s second law, when introduced, will be easily understandable. Instructions are given for both in class investigations and online investigations.This activity supports the NGSS standard MS PS2-2A review (or introduction) of the key terms mass, speed, velocity a

Professor Ellie's Elements
This picture book covers the metal, nometal, and metalloid groups of the periodic table with Professor Ellie guiding us. There are lots of great places to stop and ask questions of the students for critical thinking or connecting these groups of elements to their own lives. This story is also a part of the ECVI unit of the same topic. It is read alongside "Elements Find Their Place" and then the two books are compared and used in discussions.

Physics objectives and vocab across primary school
Progression in skills document which covers all the physics based units and objectives across primary school. Everything is set out so the whole school can use it for planning, assessing or tracking progress in Science in a simple format.
These plans are intended to support schools who teach cross-curricular as opposed to using the old QCA science units. The QCA Science schemes of work are referenced so that schools moving to a cross-curricular approach can see where each objective fits in to
