Each sub-topic includes a few quick multiple choice questions (MCQ) to assess students learning (AFL) Topics covered: Calculating rates of reaction (including an activity on data analysis and practical skills to support the students required practical studies) Factors which affect the rate of reaction Collision theory and activation energy Catalysts As this PP is smaller than some others I have included the activity as part of the price so there is no need to download it separately. I hope to have covered the entire year 11 course for the new specification (biology, Chemistry and Physics) by summer 2017 so please keep checking for more resources. I will also be making assessments to go alongside the resources ready for September

Interactive lesson covering common misconceptions in bonding between molecules and atoms. (Intermolecular, ionic, covalent, giant covalent, metallic) Students start by self-assessing their knowledge Teacher hands out a misconception to each student Students have 10 minutes to work out how to explain the misconception to the class Each student then explains his misconception to the class and answers questions from their peers Students make notes throughout Students then re-assess themselves following the mini tutorials You can provide molymods/A3 paper etc. to help them explain, I also suggest they illustrate it on the board.

AS/A level Chemistry actvity with accompanying lesson plan A problem solving lesson plan applying students knowledge of combustion, enthalpy, infrared spectroscopy and mass spectrometry to a situation. A fictitious company 'Blue Bird Motoring' are looking for a new fuel to use in their new car design to beat the land speed record. The students have to work in groups to work out what each fuel is and then use the data provided to work out which fuel would be most efficient (maths skills). Students must then write a full report back the company (literacy) detailing everything they have found out. My students were thoroughly engaged and there are a few red herrings in there to confuse them and ensure they check their work. The graphs can be a little hard for them to interpret so they need to use all the other information to help them reach an answer. i would suggest giving students a double lesson to complete all aspects of the task. Applicable to both new specification and old specification OCR and possibly AQA

Exam style assessment with 20 multiple choice questions and 22 written based marks. Covers all of OCR AS Chemistry Module 2 - Foundations in Chemistry Answers included Appropriate to assess topics below: Atoms and reactions Calculations Traditions Electrons, bonding and structure Bonding

Students are given a week/ 7 hours to complete the task independently. The task covers the whole of module 1 in context and also develops their practical skills as part of the PAG tasks. The students will need to look up new terms in the textbook and research independently to complete the task successfully. 1. Hand in complete write-ups 2. swap tasks amongst peers and hand out peer assessment sheet. As you go through the PowerPoint, tasks appear that link to the peer assessment sheet. This way the students are covering the content of module 1 whilst also looking at in the context of their peers work and assessing the work. 3. Swap back for students to comment on the peer assessment 4. Finally (if you feel necessary) collect them in to teacher assess I covered the content in a double lesson and students learnt a lot from completing the task (despite a lot of grumbling) Covers OCR Chemistry A Module 1 Practical Skills in Chemistry Experimental design Types of variable Writing a plan Planning an investigation Recording data Manipulating data Evaluating results and drawing conclusions Precision and accuracy
