Teacher Notes

A. Prior to the lesson:

1. Arrange students into groups. Each group needs at least ONE person who has a mobile device.

2. If their phone camera doesn't automatically detect and decode QR codes, ask students to

3. Print out the QR codes.

4. Cut them out and place them around your class / school.

B. The lesson:

1. Give each group a clipboard and a piece of paper so they can write down the decoded questions and their answers to them.

2. Explain to the students that the codes are hidden around the school. Each team will get ONE point for each question they correctly decode and copy down onto their sheet, and a further TWO points if they can then provide the correct answer and write this down underneath the question.

3. Away they go! The winner is the first team to return with the most correct answers in the time available. This could be within a lesson, or during a lunchbreak, or even over several days!

C. TIPS / OTHER IDEAS

4. A detailed case study in how to set up a successful QR Scavenger Hunt using this tool can be found here.

Questions / Answers (teacher reference)

Question

Answer

1. What is the difference between mass and weight?
2. If a person has a mass of 50Kg, what is their weight on Earth?
3. How do we work out Gravity? (what is the calculation)
4. Who discovered the force of gravity?
5. Name the planets in order from the Sun
6. How many days does it take for Earth to orbit the Sun?
7. A car is travelling at 40 m/s for 15 seconds. How far has it travelled?
8. A car has a speed of 10 m/s and it travelled a ditance of 100 m. How long did it take to get there?
9. A car took 15 seconds to go 25 metres, what is its speed?
10. A drawing pin has an area of 0.002 m, it is push into a cork board with a force of 10 N. What is the pressure?
11. A persons foot has an area of 0.5m, the pressure exerted on the floor is N/m. What is the force?
12. What two factors affect pressure?
13. What is the calculation for working out moments?
14. A boy weighs 500N. He is sat on a see-saw 10m away from the pivot. Work out the moment.
15. Why is the force of air resistance bigger when the car is travelling at a fast speed?
16. In the past, scientists used to think there was only 6 planets in our solar system. What does this tell you about our knowledge of the solar system today?
17. What causes scientists to reject an idea and replace it with a new one?
