This booklet contains a range of suggested teaching activities and contexts for teaching about electricity at A level. Curriculum links include charge, electron drift, energy, power and resistance, circuit symbols, electromotive force (e.m.f.) and potential difference (p.d.), Ohm's law, resistivity, series and...
A song that explains what electricity is and states some of its uses.
This is one of a set of resources developed to support the teaching of the primary national curriculum. They are designed to support the delivery of key topics within science and design and technology. This resource focusses on developing understanding of magnetic materials by producing a maze game.
Magnets...
This booklet is part of the ‘Innovations in Practical Work’ series published by the Gatsby Science Enhancement Programme (SEP). In recent years, the development of new magnetic materials has shown extraordinary advances. The remarkable strength of the latest generation...
This Catalyst article investigates how the Earth's magnetosphere protects us from harmful cosmic radiation. The article is from Catalyst: Secondary Science Review 2015, Volume 26, Issue 2.

In this learning episode, from the Institute of Physics, students look at how a magnetic field can be quantified by measuring the force on a conductor. It illustrates how Flemming's left hand rule can be used to find the direction of the force. The activities include:
- investigating the relationship...
This Nuffield GCSE Physics resource was developed, in 1996, to match the National Curriculum Science: Physics at Key Stage Four.
This resource consists of a student study guide and teachers’ notes. The student guide gives a summary of the knowledge the students require for the topic and the associated...
This exciting resource consists of nine practical activities based upon the search for exoplanets, (planets beyond our own solar system), where life may exist. Aimed at primary children aged 7–11, activities are based around working scientifically and link to many aspects of the science curriculum including; space...
Physics and the Earth Sciences for Middle Schools is one of the titles in the series of ASE Lab Books that were published in the early 1970s for the Association for Science Education by John Murray. Each title covered one or two topics and brought together the best of...
The first video presents five physics phenomena:
1. Centre of mass
2. Flipping a phone
3. Static electricity deflecting water
4. Magnetic cereals
5. Tea bag rocket
Explanations are given in the second video:
1.The finger nearest the centre of mass will also have the...
This is one of a set of resources developed to support the teaching of the primary national curriculum. They are designed to support the delivery of key topics within science and design and technology. This resource involves learners producing a crossword recapping key terms in the topics studied.

This topic, from the Institute of Physics, develops a formal description of magnetic fields before moving on to electromagnetic forces and induction. The learning episodes follow a fairly standard approach that is similar to the order in which the topics appear in most exam specifications. The three main electrical...
This article from Catalyst looks at aurora borealis caused by the interaction of the solar wind with the Earth's magnetic field. It also explains how satellites are testing thoeires of how this happens. Auroral light emission occurs at roughly 100 km altitude. Energetic electrons in the solar wind cause the...
