AQA A-level Chemistry 3.3.15 NMR - Nuclear Magnetic Resonance - Notes and Workbook with Answers
AQA A-level chemistry unit 3.1.15 Amount of Substance - Lesson or Revision workbook with answers
This workbook covers a whole unit of work combining detailed information sections with Cornell Style notetaking so the books can be used while you teach and students can add their own notes and ideas down the margin.
Colour is used for the different types of sections to make the booklet more dyslexia friendly as I have found that chemistry notes and questions can often be very dense, and somewhat inaccessible for all students but particularly those who have dyslexia.
The booklet can also be produced as a revision guide for the topic and contains all the notes and practice past paper questions you would need to revise along with worked examples. Parent and student friendly containing answers to all questions.
This booklet is 34 pages long with answers to past paper questions provided at the back from page 27 onwards. It is provided in word and pdf.
