This is a well resourced sequence that should cover three lessons on the reactions of acids with metals and making soluble salts. It includes worksheets for the first assessed practical for GCSE chemistry - making copper sulfate crystals and the principals of making soluble salts.
Reactions of Acids PPT
Making salts table of information to share with students
Fact pack of key information to learn about acids and their reactions
Differentiated simple sheet of questions for foundation level acids and salts
Large revision mat style resource on making salts as an A3 grid
Copper sulfate method that can be laminated and used during the practical
Section 1 of the practical skills handbook - the making salts practical which includes questions to deepen students understanding of the practical to enable them to answer question on the examination papers which explore their understanding of the practical.
I write Professor Bunsen resources to teach and test in my own classroom. I hope that I manage to make the new GCSE in chemistry engaging and exciting. Most importantly it could save you and your school time!
The accompanying worksheet allows students to practice and for you to give feedback and help them to improve.
Fully resourced with Powerpoints, worksheets and lesson activities and key facts and opportunities for improvement and redrafting throughout.
UPDATED 09/2018
These simple revision mats can be printed A3 with a single sheet forming a revision activity for an entire topic. With free suggested answers typed and handwritten onto completed sheets.
These files are PowerPoints which you can tweak for your classroom if desired (but please do not re-distribute). Non-editable PDF files available separately at a discount.
Contains PowerPoint Revision mats for AQA chemistry GCSE 9-1
Unit 1- Atomic Structure and the Periodic Table
Unit 2 - Bonding, Structure and the Properties of Matter
Unit 3 - Quantitative Chemistry
Unit 4 - Chemical Changes
Unit 5 - Exothermic and endothermic reactions and cells
This is a free example that forms part of a huge pack of resources to teach a module using metacognitive approaches to science exam questions. Aimed at year 10 / core science.
Metacognition, which includes ideas such as learning to learn and developing thinking skills, can be applied to the way students tackle examination questions. This scheme of learning and accompanying lessons and resources,for science skills, breaks down the different types of questions that students meet and supports them to find learned strategies that work for them in how to tackle those questions.
Each skill comes complete with a powerpoint, worksheet and mark scheme. The resources are based on AQA materials but the skills are transferable across other exam boards. All three sciences: biology, chemistry and physics, are covered.
This free example covers extended response questions and gives the scheme of learning for the whole set of resources. If you like what you see why not try the full pack?
Professor Bunsen resources are tested in school and make GCSE science engaging and exciting. Most importantly it could save you and your school time!
The accompanying worksheet allows students to practice and for you to give feedback and help them to improve. The answers are included to help the busy teacher or non-specialist.
Huge bundle of resources to support you in teaching unit 2 AQA GCSE chemistry.
Should be everything you need to teach this large and important unit, suited to separate and trilogy/combined science and a range of different abilities.
The worksheets also make good pre-preparation / revision for A-level.
Bundled resources contain multiple files.
