It includes powerpoints, worksheets and TDA’s for the following topics: Feeding relationships ( incl photosynthesis, adaptations, food chains and food webs and decay) Organisms and the environment ( incl competition, living and no living factors, pollution) How life developed on Earth ( incl genetic material, asexual and sexual reproduction, variation, evolution and natural selection, artificial selection, genetic engineering)

Edexcvel CC12a Dynamic Equilibrium. This powerpoint introduces students to reversible reactions, equilibrium in closed systems and then discusses the Haber Process as a manufacturing process that looks at changing the conditions of a reversible reaction to maximise product and profit.

This is the UPDATED powerpoints, worksheets and TDA’s for the AQA Entry Level Certificate in Science Component 5 - Energy, Forces and the structure of matter. It includes powerpoints, worksheets and TDA’s for the following topics: Energy - energy changes, energy conservation, conduction, energy resources Forces and work - forces, work done Speed and stopping distances - speed, stopping distances Atoms and nuclear radiation - atoms and radiation, Alpha, Beta and Gamma radiation, using radiation

Edexcel CC8g Solubility. This powerpoint starts with a demo of lead nitrate and potassium iodide reacting together to give a bright yellow precipitate. I try and and make this a bit of a magic show! This then leads on to looking at the solubility rules and deciding which salts are soluble or not. After some practice of finding the precipitate, the students are then shown how to make an insoluble salt. The lesson finishes with an exit ticket which could be handed in so that the teacher can find out what students are still unsure of.

This is the UPDATED powerpoints, worksheets and TDA’s for the AQA Entry Level Certificate in Science Component 6 - Electricity, Magnetism and Waves. It includes powerpoints, worksheets and TDA’s as a start to help with planning for the following topics: Electrical Current -Electrical current, types of current Domestic Electricity -wiring a plug, fuses and earth wires, transferring energy Magnetism and electromagnetism - Magnetic fields, Magnetic fields around a current, electromagnets Different types of waves - Longitudinal and transverse waves, properties of waves, electromagnetic waves

Edexcel CC8f Reactions of acids with metals and carbonates. This powerpoint starts by looking at the tests for hydrogen and carbon dioxide. It then looks at how metals react with acids and how metal carbonates react with acids discussing what products are formed in each case. It then guides the students slowly through writing ionic equations step by step, mentioning spectator ions and half equations.

This is the first lesson in a series of 6 lessons to introduce year 7 to Science. This lesson is titled ‘Safety in Science’ and introduces science rules, the need to follow them and introduces the new style hazard symbols also. The presentation is self explanatory and there is a card sort to go with the lesson. The next lesson is ‘Meet the Equipment’.

This is a power point that describes what an ecosystem is, what food chains and food webs are and also the interdependence between organisms in a food web.

Edexcel CC10b products from electrolysis. This presentation guides students through predicting the products of electrolysis firstly with molten ionic salts, then with aqueous ionic salts and finally it gives a few examples that are unusual eg purification of copper and electrolysis of sodium sulfate. there are 3 differentiated worksheets included with this.

This is the UPDATED powerpoints, worksheets and TDA’s for the AQA Entry Level Certificate in Science Component 4 - Chemistry in our world. I have included powerpoints, worksheets and TDA’s for each part of this component suitable for low ability learners: Reactions of acids - neutralisation, metals and acids, investigating acids and carbonates Energy and rate of reaction - energy transfers, rate of reaction, monitoring rate of reaction Fuels and the atmosphere - development of the atmosphere, crude oil, fuels and combustion, air pollution, climate change Water for drinking - drinking water, investigating water

This is all the resources I created for the TDA element of AQA ELC double science. It includes powerpoints for each TDA for component 1,2,3, 4, 5 and 6, which includes a method card sort. It also includes 2 versions of the TDA record sheet - a lower ability and medium ability version. There is also a powerpoint to be used to teach variables and also graph work.

Edexcel Combined Science CC8b Looking at acids - higher students. This powerpoint starts with practice at converting between cm3 and dm3 and vice versa. (Maths skills - converting units) It looks at the difference between strong and weak acids and concentrated and dilute acids. It also discusses the ions in solution and how they relate to pH. (Maths skill - factors)

A lesson to introduce ionic bonding to year 11. This should be followed up by more lessons that go into more detail on each section. This could also be used as a revision of ionic bonding before the exams!

This is a resource I printed in colour, laminated back to back and hole punched one side. I then placed them on students tables to allow them to look at during lessons in order to know how they could progress to the next level.
