What to start with: the basics for forces and motion (this includes some basic definitions and ideas you will need to remember for the standard, both as flashcards and games)
Matching game (COLUMNS) for forces and motion
Fill in the gaps game; the story of a cat; this will help you think about the 3 types of motion (stationary, constant speed, constant acceleration)
Hangman Game (includes energy, work, power and pressure). This game can be used to LEARN ideas. Each 'hangman' answer has a question so if you do not already know the answer, just 'play' hangman to reveal it. If you already know the answer, you can type it straight in and move to learning something you DON'T know yet.
What is the difference between mass and weight? (This is an explanation, not a game)
This simulation of a rollercoaster might help you understand how gravitational potential energy relates to kinetic energy [hit 'launch' then 'play']
How to avoid the MOST COMMON mistakes students make in exams:
1. Remember to write actual amounts for constant acceleration and constant deceleration
2. remember to call them CONSTANT acceleration and CONSTANT deceleration
3. remember that if a triangle shape has a rectangle shape UNDER it, you need to add them together (speed-time graphs)
4. attempt all 'explain' or 'discuss' questions if you are trying to get to Merit/Excellence
5. Remember to turn cm into m (or g into kg) before putting into ANY formulae
6. Memorise units, eg, Pa for pressure
7. Remember to double areas (A) BEFORE putting them into the formula for pressure (e.g if there are two shoes)
8. Forces CAUSE motion, not the other way around!
9. State your assumptions: Ep = Ek if you make an assumption that no energy is lost through friction as heat/sound
10. Use your formulae carefully, if it shows dividing, don't multiply!
11. Types of motion; constant speed, constant acceleration, constant deceleration. There is no such thing as decelerating at a constant speed:(
12. If asked to compare, mention both objects/peoples names repeatedly
13. If asked about a concept, write down the equation using WORDS as part of your answer e.g. "pressure is calculated by dividing force by surface area"
