One 45-minute activity for every topic. Students only need a pen, pencil, ruler and calculator (squared paper helps). Everything they need is on the page, with step-by-step instructions, calculations and answers to self-check. Ideal for cover lessons, homework or independent work.
✏️ Choose your topic
- Energy: Sankey diagrams and efficiency (C+S)
- Electricity: circuit symbols and circuits (C+S)
- Particle model: states of matter and a heating curve (C+S)
- Atomic structure: models of the atom and half-life (C+S)
- Forces: distance–time and velocity–time graphs (C+S)
- Waves: draw and label the electromagnetic spectrum (C+S)
- Magnetism: magnetic field patterns (C+S; F = BIl HT)
- Space: life cycle of a star and orbits (S only)
How each activity works: write the title and date, read the information box, follow the numbered steps (with suggested times), try the calculations, then check your answers. If you finish early, try the challenge question.
