The resource is accessible for students, easy for teachers to follow and is appropriate for TRIPLE SCIENCE ONLY, Foundation and Higher tiers. Best taught at some point after my lesson SC20a "Crude Oil, Hydrocarbons and Alkanes".

PowerPoint sufficient to teach the GCSE 9-1 specification Chemistry lessons on Alcohols and Ethanol Production in one single lesson. The resource is accessible for students, easy for teachers to follow and is appropriate for TRIPLE SCIENCE ONLY, Foundation and Higher tiers. Best taught after completing my lesson SC22a on "Alkenes and Homologous Series", which provides an intro to the structures of the alcohol homologous series.

Independent learning activity to go with my lesson on "Pregnancy, Development and Birth".

Full Lesson PowerPoint sufficient to teach the GCSE 9-1 specification Chemistry lesson on The Atmosphere Today and Climate Change. This includes coverage of the suggested practical for measuring the proportion of oxygen in the air (either as a demo or as a class practical), greenhouse gases and their effects, and the correlation between carbon dioxide levels and global temperature. The resource is accessible for students, easy for teachers to follow and is appropriate for Combined and Triple Science classes, Foundation and Higher tiers. You will also need my FREE resource “SC21c_Climate change analysis plus answers” from my shop.

This PowerPoint will allow you to teach a broad range of abilities about the history of the Periodic Table; including how Mendeleev arranged his early version, how Mendeleev predicted the properties of unknown elements and how the modern version differs from Mendeleev’s. The resource meets all required specification points for the Edexcel 9-1 GCSE course. It is accessible for students, easy to follow for teachers and is appropriate for Combined and Triple Science classes, Foundation and Higher tiers.

Full lesson PowerPoint (with independent learning activity) sufficient to teach a broad range of abilities about how oxygen gets into our blood and how different factors (e.g., cigarettes) compromise this. The lesson is in keeping with the current KS3 UK National Curriculum, is easily accessible for students and simple to follow for teachers.

Practical method and worksheet to go with my GCSE Chemistry lesson on “Properties of Ionic Compounds”. Full details and equipment list for students to test solubility and conductivity of substances, to determine whether or not they are ionic.

Full lesson PowerPoint (with suggested practical task) sufficient to teach a broad range of abilities about ceramic materials and their uses and properties. The lesson is in keeping with the current KS3 UK National Curriculum, is easily accessible for students and simple to follow for teachers.

Full lesson PowerPoint sufficient to teach a broad range of abilities aboutrecycling of metals, polymers, glass, paper and concrete. The lesson is in keeping with the current KS3 UK National Curriculum, is easily accessible for students and simple to follow for teachers.
