Formula sheets should be made available in GCSE Physics exams every year (as they were in 2022 and 2023 exams)
RT if you agree
- Makes Physics seem โfriendlierโ
- Formulas are learnt through regular use of formula sheets

@PhysicsNews I'm a Physics teacher and am often told how hard Physics is, by people not in education, students and teachers. I now work in a girls school and this idea seems to have at least doubled. ๐
@BenyohaiPhysics I agree giving them all the equations is not the best option. However, it is better than giving them them the standard formula list which, on AQA at least, is limits good physicists with poor memories.
@BenyohaiPhysics Maybe if they only remove formulas, such as density, where they must link the definition to the formula. Something that appears to be a very high level skill at GCSE for all I have taught. Most just prefer to memorise and not know how the definition and formula are linked.
@BenyohaiPhysics I see what you're daying and density is a good example for your argument. But going from mass per unit volume to the equation is a big leap for many students. Moreso with other formulas such as kinetic energy. No definition is giving you that formula at GCSE level.
@BenyohaiPhysics I see this different, more like this mean students who have an understanding of what density is but can't recall an equation won't lose out on an additional 4 marks.

@m_chiles I love the esscece of this but am perplexed on how to achieve it. How do you do this without reducing the progress of the more able? Can you give an example of scaffolding that will get the less able to same point as the more able in the same time?
@MyFairyGardenUK is it possible to send missing pieces? My Daughter got a Fairy Nature garden from her Nanna as shes just becomena big sister and doing really well being a big sister especially during lockdown. A little disappointed that the set is not complete.
