Introduction to solubility, with starter and discussion activities as well as a suggested practical, with results table. Analysis questions available at the end of the lesson

An intro lesson into solubility including a starter, practical, results sheet and analysis questions to finish off the practical. Lesson suitable for a 50-60 minute lesson. Aimed at grades 4-6 - but could be adapted up or down to suit a different class. Suitable for GCSE Chemistry or GCSE Combined Science (Chemistry)

Simple introduction to solubility with a suggested practical for students to carry out. Includes starter discussion, simple practical method and analysis questions at the end.

A lesson for lower attaining pupils to help them predict states of matter given melting and boiling points for different substances. The main activity involves students deciding whether certain substances will be solid liquid or gas on the different planets of the solar system. This could be a desk-bound actovity or you could print the imahes of the planets and their average temperatures and students could circulate the room to complete the activity. Suitable for mid-low attaining GCSE group or a sparky KS3 group.

This lesson is designed for a low ability class to guide them through a simple lesson looking at monitoring temperature drop through a phase change. The practical is based on melting Stearic acid and collecting the results as it cools and reaches its freezing point. Pure stearic acid should show a “flatlined” plot during the cooling curve to show that it is a “pure substance”

A resource that would be useful for higher achieving KS3 students or as a reminder about formulas at the beginning of GCSE Combined Science or Chemistry Main presentation includes 2 activities that can be printed or copied from the board. Also a word doc which has some more challenging questions. Both the power point and the word document can be easily amended to suit your class. Lesson length 50 minutes

Lesson on the basics of atomic structure and nomenclature. Can be adapted for all levels. Lesson includes… Starter discussion Atomic structure - key facts Recap task Explaining why atoms are neutral How to interpret mass and atomic number Application task Summary slide Spec Ref: 1.2,1.3,1.4, 1.7, 1.8

A lesson resource to enable students to be assessed for the AF3 strand (communicating science) focusing on representing chemical reactions and analysing data.

PowerPoint presentation, taking a step by step approach for calculating the pH of a weak acid.
