This is a worksheet on atom economy and percentage yield for GCSE chemistry (grade B+) that is printed as A4 handouts on atom economy and percentage yield. There are three reactions that all make Magnesium sulphate (Epsom salt) as the useful product and so atom economy can be compared along with issues such as toxicity of waste products or reactants. The YouTube video shows how Epsom salts are used in the garden. The formula for atom economy is included. The answers are not yet included and will be uploaded shortly. Please leave feedback if this is useful or if it can be improved.

This is a revision lesson on the group 2 metals and group 7 halogens. Please rate this resource and leave feedback.

This is a lesson on equilibrium for AS chemistry. There are lesson grades C to A with clear AFL tasks including a literacy-based Just a Minute plenary. There is an exam focus throughout with the grade A task getting students to apply their understanding to new reactions. The video is the TED Ed Daniel Dulek video on the Haber Process. Please rate this resource and leave feedback.

This covers naming of compounds (e.g. iron chloride) and some challenge questions such as where the heavier elements are made (supernova). Please rate this resource and leave feedback.

This is a set of 16 flashcards with questions and answers that are printed double sided. When printed this way the questions and answers align correctly. They cover: atomic structure, electron configuration, counting atoms and balancing equations. These have been designed for AQA C1.1 but would suit all exam boards. There are 8 challenging questions that will stretch the most able up to A grade. Please rate this resource and leave feedback.

This is a lesson that was designed for and taught to year 7. It can be extended to 2 lessons by getting students to collect data in the first lesson and check the validity of their predictions in the 2nd lesson. Some of the slides can printed as 6 or 2 slide handouts to serve as worksheets or writing frames (e.g. learning objectives, table). Feedback to rowan.savage@hotmail.com.

This is a GCSE chemistry tarsia for revision of rates of reaction. I suggest that the A4 tarsia is printed on card and then the outline is cut out. Students can then quickly cut out the individual triangles. Included are the following topics: symbol equations, factors affecting rate and rate graphs. The 'fjsw' file can be opened and modified with tarsia software.

This is a fully differentiated tarsia puzzle for conjugating French ER verbs in the present tense. It is a fun kinesthetic way of revising verb conjugation. It gets students to more fully understand spoken and written language by helping them appreciate that 'I play' is the same as 'I am playing' . This sort of revision activity is particularly useful for boys. There are 18 pairs of questions and answers written in 16 triangles. When properly assembled a large equilateral triangle is formed. Answers are provided as well an 'easy start' that provides 4 of the 16 triangles as a starting point for weaker students. The 'group 1 metals A4 2 page' is an A4 tarsia that has 8 triangles per page. I suggest that these are printed on card and students cut them out. They are great for AFL. end of lesson plenary or plenary. If the writing of the A4 tarsia is too small then use the medium version.

This is a GCSE chemistry tarsia for revision of history of the periodic table. I suggest that the A4 tarsia is printed on card and then the outline is cut out. Students can then quickly cut out the individual triangles. Included are the following topics: nationality of Dobereiner, Newlands and Mendeleev, law of triads, law of octaves, atomic number, gallium, number of natural elements and number of elements known to Mendeleev, grouping of the elements. The 'fjsw' file can be opened and modified with tarsia software that is free to download. Please note that the software does not work on Mac computers.

This is a fun GCSE chemistry tarsia for revision of combustion. There are 16 triangles with 18 pairs of questions and answers that make a parallelogram. I suggest that the A4 tarsia is printed on card and then the outline is cut out. Students can then quickly cut out the individual triangles. Included are the following topics: formulae, complete combustion, incomplete combustion, carbon neutral, products of combustion. The software is free to download but there is not currently a version for Mac computers.

This is a fun KS3 chemistry tarsia for acids and alkalis. There are 16 triangles with 18 pairs of questions and answers that make a parallelogram. I suggest that the A4 tarsia is printed on card and then the outline is cut out. Students can then quickly cut out the individual triangles. Included are the following topics: indicator, pH meter, pH of different substances, formula of HCl and water. The software is free to download but there is not currently a version for Mac computers.

This is a KS3 chemistry tarsia for revision of elements and compounds. I suggest that the A4 tarsia is printed on card and then the outline is cut out. Students can then quickly cut out the individual triangles. Included are the following topics: number of atoms in a molecule, number of elements in a compound, definition of elements and compounds.

This is a fun yet challenging GCSE Chemistry tarsia for comparing different theories of atomic structure. There are 18 triangles with 21 pairs of questions and answers that make a kite shape. I suggest that the A4 tarsia is printed on card and then the outline is cut out. Students can then quickly cut out the individual triangles. Included are the following topics: names of scientists such E.R. Rutherford and J.J. Thomnson who played important roles in developing atomic theory, isotopes, electron shells and the periodic table, charge on subatomic particles and comparisons of the main models.
