Ref	Lesson pack	Structure	Worksheet	Quiz	Lab tab
1.7.1	Energy stores and transfers Burn fuel, charge a phone, lift a weight: in every case energy simply shifts from one store to another.	Anticipation / Reaction Guide	6 Q, 13 marks	1 MCQ	tab 1
1.7.1	Kinetic energy (KE = ½mv²) A car at 60 km/h does not carry twice the energy of one at 30 km/h, it carries four times as much.	Numbered Heads Together	6 Q, 13 marks	3 MCQ	tab 3
1.7.1	Gravitational potential energy (ΔPE = mgΔh) Lift an object and you store energy in it, ready to be released the moment it falls.	Round Table	6 Q, 13 marks	2 MCQ	tab 4
1.7.2	Work done (W = Fd) Pushing a stalled car, lifting a crate, dragging a sledge: whenever a force shifts something along its own direction, it does work, and that work is exactly the energy it hands over.	Rally Coach	6 Q, 12 marks	1 MCQ	tab 2
1.7.3	Energy resources Every kilowatt we use is drawn from somewhere: ancient sunlight locked in coal, the pull of the Moon on the seas, or heat rising from deep inside the Earth.	Jigsaw	6 Q, 14 marks	1 MCQ	tab 7
1.7.3	Efficiency Every machine wastes some of the energy it is given, usually as heat to the surroundings.	Round Table	6 Q, 13 marks	3 MCQ	tab 6
1.7.4	Power (P = W/t) Two motors can lift the same crate to the same shelf, transferring the same energy, yet one finishes in a second and the other takes a minute.	Rally Coach	6 Q, 12 marks	1 MCQ	tab 5
