I have designed these 26 questions to cover all of B1 for a low ability group.

US Admiral Rickover's 1957 the end of oil speech and 2004 National Geographic article 'the end of cheap oil. Both have been edited to one page length. Questions are provided. Suitable for high ability KS3 and mid to high ability KS4. Feedback: rowan.savage@hotmail.com

I designed and used this demo with a GCSE C-D borderline group. Vacuum pump is normally used to remove used engine oil. It worked really well to get the students interest and relate science to their world. Feedback: rowan.savage@hotmail.com

This is an AS Chemistry lesson on calculating which chemical is in excess in a reaction. Also students calculate an enthalpy change using a graphical method for reactions that happen slowly and therefore heat is lost to the surroundings when recording the temperature rise. The graphical method involves estimating the actual temperature increase. There is opportunity to use hand warmers for the starter activity and reacting magnesium with oxygen (i.e. in air) as a main activity. Please rate this resource and leave feedback.

This is a levelled checklist for graph skills that year 7 and 8 students should be able to do. I use this the second time that I teach year 7 graph skills. It helps promote inclusion. Higher ability pupils should be able to complete all of the checklist to a very high level of ability. Feedback to my TES inbox please.

This is a resource that I created for my year 10 students to think critique their performance on each question of an end of topic test. This can be easily adapted to all types of test for KS4 and KS5 A level. The page setup is A4 so page 2 of the presentation can be printed and stuck into student books.

This is a proforma that I have designed for parents evenings that is designed to: 1. Keep conversations focused 2. Make sure that students have targets to improve 3. Allow for any action points to be made during the discussion with parents. I have found this to be a really useful document. Please leave a comment and rating if you find this document useful as well.

This is a lesson on accuracy that I have designed for and taught to year 7. It can be readily modified to compare accuracy and reliability. It uses an ink pipette dart board as a practical (ink is dropped onto a laminated paper dart board). Feedback to rowan.savage@hotmail.com

This is a set of 16 revision flashcards created for AQA C1.6 GCSE plant oil revision. The question and answer pages should be printed double sided and then cut out. The questions and answers match up when printed double sided. There are 8 Challenge questions to extend students and keywords in the question are highlighted in bold. Font is 1.5 line spacing to make the writing easier to read. GCSE grades D to A. Diagrams and questions are included from past paper exam questions. Please rate this resource and leave feedback

These are thoroughly differentiated resources designed for an AS level chemistry lesson on reduction of carbonyl compounds. Objectives are framed as learning questions and graded C to A. There are clear AFL plenaries using mark schemes. There is a graded Who Wants to be a Millionaire quiz for an end plenary. The starter is an engaging scents demo using butanal (pleasant) and butanoic acid (rancid butter). Pace and student effort is the key to delivering an outstanding lesson using these resources. Mark schemes can be printed. Please rate this resource and leave feedback.

This is a lesson designed as part of the Edexcel A2 unit 4 scheme of work on carbonyl compounds. In this lesson students can carry out a practical (grade C) to compare the oxidation of primary, secondary and tertiary alcohols. The oxidation and distillation of a primary alcohol is demonstrated. Students then develop their understanding (grade B) by considering which type of oxidant would be best to oxidise geraniol (rose scent) to germinal (lemon scent). Geraniol could be used in the demo. The grade A task is writing organic redox half equations. 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. These have been designed for AQA C1.3 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 set of 16 revision flashcards created for AQA C1.2 GCSE limestone cycle revision. The question and answer pages should be printed double sided and then cut out. The questions and answers match up when printed double sided. There are 8 Challenge questions to extend students and keywords in the question are highlighted in bold. Font is 1.5 line spacing to make the writing easier to read. GCSE grades D to A. Please rate this resource and leave feedback.

This is an AS chemistry 14 mark test on the topic redox with mark scheme and very detailed feedback sheet sheet.

This is a BRAVO reward points chart. Students stick the second A4 slide in their books. BRAVO stands for Book presentation, Reaching out for extension work, Avoiding behaviour points, Verbal contribution and responsibility, Outstanding work. This can be incorporated as part of an established school reward and behaviour system. The class teacher may reward students every 20 points using a phone call home, postcard or any other strategy. Please rate this resource and leave feedback.

There is a newspaper template with boxes that students fill in using information from the website links. The NSB website is a website that provides symbol equations (very challenging). The Doncaster website is a lot easier to read and understand. I will later add a lesson PowerPoint and keywords glossary.

This is a lesson that works with a very able top set double science GCSE, triple science GCSE or AS chemistry. The levels are based on AS so these may need to be increased if this lesson is to be used at GCSE. The SAS video is played from 2 minutes 30 to around 5 minutes for the starter activity. The Top Gun theme tune could be used as an activity timer. Exam questions are from Edexcel AS chemistry unit 1 but work equally well for GCSE. The Mr T photo indicates 'challenge&' questions that require resilience (independent learning). Please rate and leave feedback.

This is a PowerPoint that I share with AS students so that they are aware of the grade boundaries. I use percentage equivalents to grade work that is handed in. It is worthwhile bringing to students attention that AS boundaries are lower than A2 despite the increasing challenge in A2.

This is a peer editing exam question task on polarity for AS Chemistry. Students use the glossary keywords to answer an exam question. To help develop exam writing skills there are 3 graded questions based on the exam question. Students answer each of these questions then pass the sheet on to their partner to peer edit their work - such as by adding more detail from the glossary. The actual mark scheme is provided for students to assess themselves against. Please rate this resource and leave feedback.

This is the 6th of my AFL strategies. Tarsia are an excellent and fun way of carrying out AFL. This is because the shape expected is generated if the correct answers are matched up. These are science tarsia and more of these will be added. Please leave feedback and rate the resources if you find them useful or have suggestions as to how they can be improved.
