A lesson introducing the control of blood glucose levels. This lesson mentions both types of diabetes but does not go into details of treatments. The practical I did was with clinistix and I have included the 3 solutions I used in the notes section of one of the slides. However, you could use Benedicts solution to test for sugar if you would prefer. This is a whole lesson with the starter, lesson plan and some exam questions taken fro various exam boards all included.

This is a series of 10 question recall tests for use at the start or end of a lesson. This presentation includes quizzes on enzymes, enzymes action, enzymes in action and transporting substances. At the end of each quiz is a slide with just the questions on so that they can be printed off and handed out to students as a starter whilst you do the register. The presentation then goes through each questions with the answer so that students can self assess. Alternatively it can be done as a plenary and you can rapid fire targeted questions just using the presentation.

Edexcel CC10a Electrolysis. This presentation explores the apparatus sued in electrolysis and the terminology used. It explains why solid ionic substances can not conduct electricity and then takes higher students through the skill of writing half equations and using OILRIG to work out reduction and oxidation. IT also includes 3 differentiated worksheets.

Edexcel Combined Science CC8a Acids and Indicators. This presentation includes details on hazard symbols and their meaning, acids, indicators, pH and ions in acids and alkalis. It also includes the practical for testing indicators with solutions of different pH (CC8a.1) the reference to worksheet CC8a.3 refers to the Edexcel published worksheets.

This is the fifth lesson in a series of 6 lessons to introduce year 7 to Science. This lesson is titled ‘Investigations’ and allows students to undertake an investigation early in the year. I have included an investiagtion title page for Y7,8,9,10 and 11 ( please look in the notes section at the bottom of the powerpoint to find out which is most suitable) . I have not included many details of the investigations as the point is for the students to do this for themselves. This may take 2 lessons depending upon the ability of the students in the class. The presentation should be self explanatory . The next lesson is ‘Drawing graphs’

An introduction to basic quantitative analysis including making standard solutions, titrations and using titration results in calculations. The presentation can be used as a stand alone lesson when revising or used in conjunction with the booklet when teaching this topic.

OCR AS Oxidation numbers presentation and associated worksheets used in the presentation. I get the students to print off the oxidation rules and laminate them for reference in their files rather than continually turning back. Thanks for looking.

This is a stand alone presentation I use for after school revision throughout the year to show students how to approach calculations involving moles. The slides can be adapted or quantities changed each week so that students practice new problems each time.

Edexcel CC6a Chemistry Covalent Bonding. This is a complete lesson on covalent bonding showing learners how to draw covalent bonding diagrams using the dot and cross method. It also includes a worksheet to practice this.

This powerpoint introduces learners to the difference between power and energy and how to caclulate the cost of electricity. It also briefly outlines how The National Grid works and mentions transformers. It includes how to : Describe the difference between power and energy Calculate power using energy transferred and time or voltage and current Explain the structure and use of The National Grid

Edexcel CC4b Atomic Number and the Periodic Table. This presentation explores how the elements are arranged in the modern Periodic table and pair reversals. It also includes a worksheet.

This introduces resistance, Ohms law and characteristics of components when drawing current-voltage graphs. It includes how to: Describe resistance Calculate resistance using Ohms law Explain the current-voltage characteristics of a bulb, resistor and a diode

This is a powerpoint I use at the start of year 8 to familiarise students with some of the maths skills they will need including rounding with decimal places, rounding with significant figures and using standard form. This sits nicely with my other year 8 powerpoint about the scientific method and results and graphs.

Edexcel CC3 Chemistry Atomic Structure. This is the first in a series of 3 lessons following CC3 from Edexcel. 2 differentiated worksheets are included with this presentation. This presentation takes a brief look through how the idea of an atom developed over time and uses The Atoms Family ( a set of 3 cartoons I drew to represent the proton, electron and neutron) and helps students remember the properties of each subatomic particle. Penny the proton is positive, Ned the neutron is neutral and Elvis the electron is nEgative ( alliteration!)

Edexcel CC3b Ar and Mr calculations. This presentation introduces the mass number and atomic number and allows students to practice calculating the number of protons, electrons and neutrons from these numbers. With the higher students if time allows you can introduce the relative atomic mass and relative formula mass also.These are 2 differentiated worksheets to go with this lesson included.

Edexcel CC3c Isotopes. This presentation introduces isotopes and how chemical properties are the same but physical properties are different based on electronic structure. It also takes higher students through calculations on using relative abundance of isotopes to work out relative atomic mass. 2 differentiated worksheets are included.

This is a series of 10 question recall tests for use at the start or end of a lesson. This presentation includes quizzes on states of matter and mixtures. At the end of each quiz is a slide with just the questions on so that they can be printed off and handed out to students as a starter whilst you do the register. The presentation then goes through each questions with the answer so that students can self assess. Alternatively it can be done as a plenary and you can rapid fire targeted questions just using the presentation.

This is a series of 10 question recall tests for use at the start or end of a lesson. This presentation includes quizzes on Newton’s 3rd Law, Momentum, Stopping distances and crash hazards At the end of each quiz is a slide with just the questions on so that they can be printed off and handed out to students as a starter whilst you do the register. The presentation then goes through each questions with the answer so that students can self assess. Alternatively it can be done as a plenary and you can rapid fire targeted questions just using the presentation
