A set of 5 potential lessons using Vitamin C tablets to launch film canister rockets. Excellent experiment, fully differentiated planning sheets to accompany it, and a mark scheme for the method. Really useful for planning all parts of an investigation for key stage 3 students. Could easily be used to practice skills with older year groups too.

Technician list for KS3 unit of work given in my other resources

Booklet that can be used to work from for the BTEC applied science unit 3 investigation into Calorimetry. Booklet in total took about 5 sessions to complete (tasks cover planning, carrying out investigation, processing data and write up!). Answer booklet provided with suggested student responses :) Lots of guidance for students on use of equations. You will have to help them create a results table (don’t forget units!). I put the headings for my results table as: Fuel Start Mass (g) Final Mass (g) Change in Mass (g) Molar Mass (mol) Heat of Combustion (kJ/mol)

A powerpoint and sheet with a project homework, would be great to compliment a KS3 topic on forces/weight and then use for formative assessment as a level ladder is given too! Just changed whats on your level ladder. I have had some really great work back from this in the past! The ppt is to set the scene and generate enthusiasm mainly! This would be very suitable for an extended project for children to do from home as there are clear success criteria for them to follow!

Booklet that can be used to work from for the BTEC applied science unit 3 investigation into current, voltage and resistance. Booklet in total took about 5 sessions to complete (tasks cover planning, carrying out investigation, processing data and write up!) PPT included recapping basic ideas from KS3 and 4 on circuits. I did this in 2 sessions and including the card sort on circuit symbols, as they may be asked to interpret a circuit from a diagram in their exam.

Here is a slide for the beginning of every AQA GCSE Chemistry paper 2 lesson with a retrieval practice question. The questions on the right hand side are the most recent, the left hand side is randomly selected from the syllabus studied so far (according to the order they appear on kerboodle references/textbooks). The first couple of slides ask questions from the KS3 activate spec. You can click on the question the student is answering to reveal the answer underneath. This is suitable for higher tier and foundation level students.
