The SQA has produced the whole timetable for the exams. Notice that the May Day bank holiday has been moved to the Friday to coincide with 75th Anniversary of VE day. The SQA are on the ball as I didn’t know that had been moved!

The introduction to N5 Physics is given under some important student resources.

TIMELINE
I am not here to worry you, but you ought to be concerned. If you don’t miss any lessons and we have no prelims there are just 163 school days from the start of the course to you leaving for study leave. If I see you 3 x per week that is approx 98 lessons! We need to move on.
Your compendium contains N5 content, information on the exam and assignment, maths, Relationships Sheet and Data Sheet. Check off the outcomes as you go through the course.
Currently under construction- Learning Outcome Question Booklet. These will be completed by the Summer and answers completed as soon as I can manage it. (July 9th 2019- I’m getting through it!)
(August 2019) I’ll complete a.s.a.p.! Answer on flash/cue cards, which will make a great set of revision notes to use to self-test, or to get someone to test you.
Lots of people are scared of Physics and say it is too hard. I can’t claim that Physics will be the easiest subject that you can choose but I describe it like this.
“Some subjects that you choose will be like a walk in the park; very pleasant, quite straightforward, and not very strenuous.
Physics will be like climbing a mountain, hard going, challenging, and testing.

However, at the end of the day what would give you most satisfaction, sense of pride and achievement?
Are you up for a challenge or do you just want an easy ride?”

You can feel the sense of achievement in this photo.
You can experience that too- choose Physics!
