This lesson is designed for the NEW AQA Trilogy GCSE Chemistry, differentiated for most abilities. For more lessons to meet specification points for the new AQA Trilogy specification for Biology, Chemistry and Physics please see me TES shop: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/MissBScienceResources
Pupils retrieve knowledge of exothermic and endothermic reactions, learn about the energy transfers from exothermic and endothermic reactions, Includes: slide animations, embedded videos with link in the notes (where a video is included), learning tasks/practice.
There are no answers for the scenario based questions as I used these as class discussions
This lesson meets the following specification point: 5.5.1.1 Energy transfer during exothermic and endothermic reactions. Energy is conserved in chemical reactions. The amount of energy in the universe at the end of a chemical reaction is the same as before the reaction takes place. If a reaction transfers energy to the surroundings the product molecules must have less energy than the reactants, by the amount transferred.
An exothermic reaction is one that transfers energy to the surroundings so the temperature of the surroundings increases.
Exothermic reactions include combustion, many oxidation reactions and neutralisation.
Everyday uses of exothermic reactions include self-heating cans and hand warmers.
An endothermic reaction is one that takes in energy from the surroundings so the temperature of the surroundings decreases.
Endothermic reactions include thermal decompositions and the reaction of citric acid and sodium hydrogencarbonate. Some sports injury packs are based on endothermic reactions.
Students should be able to:
• distinguish between exothermic and endothermic reactions on the basis of the temperature change of the surroundings
• evaluate uses and applications of exothermic and endothermic reactions given appropriate information.
KS3 lesson on the solar system, features links to careers (astronomer).
Big question, learning objective and success criteria all included. Bell task, starter and activities all included and answers in the powerpoint.
Includes practical activity to reiterate idea of terrestrial planets and gas giants, engaging and visualising activity for pupils. All resources needed are included in powerpoint or as separate document. Practical worksheet is included as a word doc to allow easy editing if needed.
Includes exam question for review and extra information to challenge pupils.
Bank of over 400 questions covering AQA GCSE Physics specification, broken down into topics but you can also filter by kerboodle topic number. This can be used as revision for pupils, as retrieval questions or questions for lessons.
There are questions for every combined Physics topic. Designed for both Separate Science and Combined Science (Trilogy). Space is not included
Designed for AQA specification but can also be used for Edexcel too.
AQA Combined Science revision booklets, complete with retrieval questions followed by exam questions. Answers included for all questions, including exam questions.
