2) Create some astronomy display work for my physics board in the classroom. It can be as big/bold/informative/creative as possible to show the topic that we have been studying. For example you might want to focus on a particular planet, a satellite mission and what it found or current research eg on black holes?
LOC's available for the best ones!!!

Ext tasks from Chp 6 Radioactivity exam
Group 1: Complete a short ppt about the timeline of the structure of the atom and how it has changed over time. Max 10 slides, be ready to present to the class at the end of the lesson. Email me you ppt by 10:30.
Learning outcomes:
1) Describe the main features of the atom and its subatomic particles using scientific
language
2) Explain how and why the atomic model has changed over time including reference to the plum pudding model and Rutherford alpha particle scattering leading to the Bohr model.
Group 2: Complete a short ppt about the Rutherford scattering experiment and the scale of atoms and nuclei. Max 10 slides, be ready to present to the class at the end of the lesson. Email me you ppt by 10:30.
1) Recall the typical size (order of magnitude) of atoms, nuclei and small molecules (Think of ways to help people remember this)
2) Describe Rutherford's gold leaf scattering experiment in detail and explain what it taught us about the atom
1) Describe the process of fission focusing on what is happening at each stage and explaining the role of fuel rods, control rods and the moderator.
2) Outline the process of fusion and explain what conditions are needed to fusion to happen.
3) Compare and contract the nuclear processes of fission and fusion.
Homework: Due Tuesday 5th Feb 2019
1) Fission and fusion exam questions given out in class
2) EWT improvements - in GREEN PEN!!! at least a paragraph
3) Revise for end of chapter 6 test.

Homework due :Tuesday 29th Jan 2019
Use the following websites to carry out some research about nuclear energy:
§Name three industries that produce nuclear waste.
§What are the different ways
that nuclear waste can be classified?
§What items might be
classified in these types of radioactive waste?
§How are each of these types
of radioactive wastes disposed of?
§Write an argument outlining
the advantages and disadvantages of nuclear power.

15.01.19 P2 Dangers of Radiation Research tasks:
Use the laptops to research about 3 incidents which occurred due to radiation. Write a paragraph about each situation A, B and C.
A Chernobyl
In 1986 there was a nuclear accident at the Chernobyl nuclear power station. Find out:
where Chernobyl is, and how many people lived in the nearby town of Pripyat
why the accident happened
how far the contamination spread (and whether it affected the UK)
what the main harmful isotopes were, and their half-lives
how many people died in the first three months
how many people died as a result of the accident altogether, and what the common causes of death were.
B Fukushima
In 2011 there was an accident at a nuclear power station at Fukushima in Japan. Find out:
what caused the accident
which isotopes from the accident spread around the world, and how they were spread
which of the isotopes produced a hazard that decreased within a month
how many deaths were caused by the accident, and what the long-term effects on people in Fukushima are
likely to be.
C Alexander Litvinenko
Alexander Litvinenko died of radiation poisoning in 2006. Find out:
which isotope was responsible for his death, what type of radiation it emits and why this was particularly
dangerous
how the isotope got into his body, and how its half-life would have affected the radiation he was exposed to
between when he was poisoned and when he died
what his first symptoms were
who is alleged to be responsible
whether this incident was an example of irradiation or contamination.
