Lesson Title: Today we are learning about
What is a machine?
Remember to check for PROGRESS
Focus on Knowledge, Skills and Understanding
Success Criteria: You will show your learning by...
  1. A machines transmits a force from one place or object to another.
  2. Simple machines give bigger force but at the expense of smaller movement (and vice versa)
  3. Simple machines include: - Ramps - Levers - Pulleys - Wedge - Screw
  4. The product of force and displacement is work done. Work done is also known as energy transferred. The unit of work done is therefore Joules.
  5. The 'energy transferred in' is equal to the work done.
  6. Aim: To find out how the number of pulleys affects the force required to lift a 6N load. Secondary Aim: To find out how the number of pulleys affects the distance moved of Effort and Load. Tertiary Aim: To find out how the number of pulleys affects the input work done vs output work done.
  7. Use physical processes and mechanisms, and energy changes, to explain the intermediate steps that bring about changes conditions of a system

AFL/Key Questions:
  1. What is the role of a machine in terms of forces?
    A machines transmits a force from one place or object to another.
  2. What is the advantage and disadvantage of a simple machine?
    Simple machines give bigger force but at the expense of smaller movement (and vice versa)
  3. Give 3 examples of simple machines.
    Simple machines include: - Ramps - Levers - Pulleys - Wedge - Screw
  4. What is work done? What is work done also known as? What unit do we use for work done?
    The product of force and displacement is work done. Work done is also known as energy transferred. The unit of work done is therefore Joules.
  5. What is the relationship between energy transferred in and work done?
    The 'energy transferred in' is equal to the work done.

Learning Phases/Episodes
Think about how you can match the needs of ALL students
Differentiation: AGT, SEND, LLL, Disadvantaged
Remember to check for PROGRESS
Starter Activity Differentiation and Challenge question/task
  • Students to copy and complete the keywords.
  • Teacher reveals missing letters; Students correct mistakes;
  • Discuss the scientific meanings of the words.
  • Students to write down the definitions of the most important / new keywords.
  • Discuss the 'Memory Anchor'.
    • What does it show?
    • How does it relate to the what we are learning about today (title)?
Think about PACE – Develop, consolidate and deepen knowledge, skills and understanding
