These will be useful for Chinese students studying abroad as international students or teachers in China who wish to teach their students the English words typically used in a physics lesson. Answers are also provided. The feedback from the classroom has been very positive and some colleagues from other schools have asked to use these resources for their Chinese International students. If there are specific topics you would like please tell me as it is likely they are currently being developed / or used.

This resource is a test that covers various aspects of periodicity: sub atomic numbers, electron configuration, assigning charge to ionic species, some electrolysis questions and a few word equations (eg. photosynthesis) requiring symbols equations. The test takes about 1 hour.

This resource contains 9 pages of detailed notes and worked examples as well as a 2-page worksheet that contains some straight forward pH calculations as well as some very challenging calculations due to the weak acid not being so weak. The detailed notes work though a variety of scenarios and some of the associated misconceptions. The notes would be useful for both new chemistry teachers and students. This resource would be suitable for A level students. It will also be useful for those interested in continuing in chemistry or entering the National Chemistry Olympiad competition. Key words: buffer, pH, calculation, acid, base

This resource consists of 9 pages of notes and calculation examples and a three 2-page worksheets to help the teacher or student grapple with buffer calculations. The target is A2 and IB students. The wk/s 4 and 5 (and answers) are essentially a titration on paper where a specific weak acid (or base) is gradually titrated (each problem a new calculation) to show the student the effect the addition of OH ions has on the final pH. Itis a chance to repeat the same calculation multiple times. The format ensures students get to practice on the same system and therefore minimise cognitive overload. Students are encouraged to think about what species are in solution and what part of the titration curve each calculation relates to. I also encourage a novel way of setting out the calculations, which I (and my students) believe minimises potential mistakes.

This resource consists of 2 double-sided worksheets made up of short answer questions (and answers) relating to atomic structure; in particular, ionisation energy, atomic and ionic radii and electron affinity.

Some errors were found and have since been addressed (2016) Key words: kinetics, reaction rate, collision theory, iodine clock reaction, experiment

This resource includes a colour-coded power point pack (51 slides): the first half focuses on inheritance and how information is ultimately coded into proteins. The 2nd half covers sexual vs asexual reproduction, genetic variation, mono-hybrid inheritance, punnett squares, pedigree charts and natural selection. The slides are kept simple and are not cluttered with lots of words. The user can delete slides not required for their specific course. My students tell me the slides are easy to annotate and are very good for exam preparation. A set of learning objectives (SLOs) is given as well as three 2-page problem sheets that focused mainly on punnett squares and pedigree charts (answers provided). Two of the problem sheets can be bought separately from this shop ("Biology: punnet square problems and interpretation of pedigree charts"). Thank you to everyone who has bought this resource over the past year. If you have a spare 2 minutes could you please leave some feedback? This will help me refine or add to what I have published.

This resource contains some worked calculations and notes and a 2-page w/s that contains weak acid or weak base problems. 2 misconception questions are also included to encourage students to be able to explain a concept without the need of a calculator.

This resource consists of some general REDOX notes and 1 work sheet with 6 hard-to-difficult REDOX reactions to balance. The difficulty is due to the fact the students must first convert word equations into symbols. One problem requires them to balance under alkaline conditions and the metal product is not immediately obvious. The problems introduce the students to uncommon reactions where the acid itself is converted to products other than hydrogen gas. This worksheet would be suitable for students doing A-level or wanting to take part in the National Chemistry Olympiad competition.

There are two worksheets (with worked answers) and notes in this resource. WS1 focuses on word equations and limits reaction to those of oxides, hydroxides and carbonates. Notes are also provided. The intention is for students to get used to the idea of always writing down the salt and that water is the other product. WS2 asks students to balance the symbol equations. The equations are limited to acids reacting with oxides, carbonates and hydroxides. Both worksheets are also part of a larger resource called "Chemistry: balancing equations involving metals and their salts". This resource will suit students learning about balancing equations for the first time. With all the best intentions in the world, mistakes do get made.
