Lesson includes… Theory Methods for all positive ions Relevant you tube links Suggestions for “mystery substance” activity Some pages refer to Pearson Edexcel GCSE Chem textbook

Edexcel flames and photometry lesson including results tables and the theory you need. Some questions at the end relate to the Pearson Chem textbook which students can also tackle if you have tat textbook.

Nice lesson looking at safety in Science along with some straightforward tasks to try. Hazcard info on slides you can print out, stick to walls so students can do some focused research.

Introduction to why science is important. Students have an opportunity to “research” some famous scientists by gathering information from the info in the ppt (can be printed out and used as a resource around the room)

simple lesson template you could use for monitoring phase changes (melting ice over a Bunsen). Data can be used to test their graph drawing skills.

Simple experiment you could pull off in one lesson. Good opportunity to introduce independent/dependent and control variables. How many “drops” will the penny hold? Let’s find out!
