Full lesson PowerPoint sufficient to teach a broad range of abilities aboutrecycling of metals, polymers, glass, paper and concrete. The lesson is in keeping with the current KS3 UK National Curriculum, is easily accessible for students and simple to follow for teachers. This also includes the overview and equipment list I use for the whole “Making Materials” topic.

This full lesson PowerPoint (including practical activity and worksheet) can be used to teach a broad range of abilities about Chromatography - what it is, how it works and how to do it. The lesson is in keeping with the current KS3 UK National Curriculum, is easily accessible for students and simple to follow for teachers.

Full Lesson PowerPoint (with independent learning activity) sufficient to teach the GCSE 9-1 specification Chemistry lesson explaining why there are energy changes in exothermic and endothermic reactions, including drawing reaction profiles and the new content on bond energies and their use to calculate reaction outcomes. The resource is accessible for students, easy for teachers to follow and is appropriate for Combined and Triple Science classes, Foundation and Higher tiers (the final activity & learning objective is Higher-tier only).

Full Lesson PowerPoint sufficient to teach the GCSE 9-1 specification Chemistry lesson on the recycling of metals and life-cycle assessments of manufactured products. The resource meets all required specification points for the Edexcel 9-1 GCSE Chemistry course. It is accessible for students, easy to follow for teachers and is appropriate for Combined and Triple Science classes, Foundation and Higher tiers.

PowerPoint sufficient to teach the GCSE 9-1 specification Chemistry lessons on Choosing Materials (Ceramics, Metals and Polymers) and Composite Materials. The resource is accessible for students, easy for teachers to follow and is appropriate for TRIPLE SCIENCE ONLY, Foundation and Higher tiers. You will also need to download my free worksheet “SC26a-b Materials Research sheet”.

This PowerPoint is designed to introduce students to Balanced Chemical Equations and links balanced equations with the Law of Conservation of Mass. The lesson is accessible for students, easy to follow for teachers and is required learning for Combined and Triple Science classes, Foundation and Higher tiers. Be aware: this resource is aims to teach students the basics of balancing equations and it assumes no prior knowledge / experience. As such, this content may take a whole lesson to cover with some classes but could be completed very quickly with students who have previous experience of balanced equations. Follow-up lessons on Calculations involving Mass are available from my shop individually or, alongside this lesson, as part of a whole-topic bundle.

This PowerPoint will allow you to deliver the GCSE 9-1 Chemistry Core Practical in which electrolysis of copper sulphate solution is performed using copper electrodes. It includes the background theory that students need to know. The experiment is complex and time-consuming, so I have suggested some short-cuts and have provided easy-to-follow methods to share with students. I’ve also included exemplar data for students to analyse if their experimental data is not sufficient. The resources are easy to follow for teachers and readily accessible for students. This is required learning for Combined and Triple Science classes, Foundation and High-tier. Other GCSE lessons (including other lessons on Electrolysis) are available from my shop. They can be purchased individually or, alongside this lesson, as part of a whole-topic bundle.

This PowerPoint will allow you to teach students the GCSE 9-1 Chemistry content on Making Salts by Acid-Alkali titration. Note This does not cover the Triple-only content on titration calculations or performing a titration as part of a Core Practical; that is covered in a separate lesson for the Quantitative Analysis topic. This lesson is simply about using titration to make salts from acids and solubles bases, in contrast to the methods used for making salts from acids and insoluble bases. The resources are easy to follow for teachers, readily accessible for students and are appropriate for Combined and Triple Science classes, Foundation and Higher tiers. Other GCSE lessons are available from my shop. They can be purchased individually or, alongside this lesson, as part of a whole-topic bundle.

An ideal home learning resource; these revision cards cover all the “learnable” Chemistry Paper 1 content. The cards come as an editable PowerPoint, with six cards per slide for students to cut out. There are eight slides (48 cards) for Combined students and ten slides (58 cards) for Triple students. The cards that are Higher only are indicated, so Foundation students can discard these. As students memorise the content of each card, they should be able to recall the information when prompted by a revision partner. As information becomes embedded, cards can be removed so the pile focuses on a smaller number of trickier concepts. Please note: these cards are designed to supplement NOT substitute for other revision. If all the material on these cards is memorised, it will give students a solid platform from which to achieve a very good grade. However, these cards are not sufficient to fully prepare students for the chemical calculations topics (only practice can prepare for this) or the technical aspects of the Core Practicals (practical experience is needed for this)
