Hello. This is the presentation for your start of S1 Science. I can’t upload the great doody powerpoint as it has macros which aren’t allowed but I’ve saved it as a pdf. You’ll have to get in touch with me by sending me a message if you want a copy of the powerpoint, beware it is quite big!
Thanks to those at SCHOOLPHYSICS for some of the slides.
