20 ideas that range from investigations to one off lessons to making Christmas as scientific as possible. Ideas include how to brighten up your room/lab with science themed decorations, investigate factors that effect poor old Father Christmas from doing his job. Most ideas are linked to Chemistry and Physics but would be appropriate for any teacher of any specialism to use throughout the keystages.

AQA Triology GCSE Chemistry Content, required practical and skills PLC: The Trilogy Chemistry content broken down into 'can do' statements. Teachers can RAG rate student progress to highlight strengths and weaknesses on this already formatted spreadsheet. All you have to do is put a number in and it will change colour automatically, saving you time and effort. Also include is a required practical tracker, a trilogy Chemistry required practical assessment booklet and a general scientific skills PLC tracker. PLC trackers are included for the chemistry trilogy required practicals, energy changes, chemical changes, quantitative chemistry, atmosphere, rates of reaction, organic chemistry, chemical analysis, bonding and structure, atomic structure, key skill areas, This resource should help you track student progress until they master each element of the Chemistry trilogy specification. The tracker will support written reports, inform students of the next steps and could even be used at parents evenings to inform parents of progress.

The resource contains 10 teacher led demonstrations some of which students can also do, all focussing on the gas pressure laws (Gay-Lussacs, Boyles and Charles) and their relationships. The powerpoint also includes data students could plot to further understand the relationships. I have also included the foldable that students can use to further discover the relationships between temperature, volume and pressure. This can be used in conjunction with the powerpoint lesson ideas. I hope you find it useful especially if you a non specialist or you find yourself teaching this new area of the Physics curriculum.

Create a fractional distillation column which folds open to show the fractions inside. There is plenty of space to colour and for teacher autonomy. Fractions are folded inwards so can not be seen until the cover is taken off. Fractions then fold out. There is also an extended question sheet that is the correct to stick over the inside cover to stretch learners to explain what is happening inside the column. Included is a mark scheme (what points exam boards look for) and a differentiated key points sheet that could be given out or used instead of the extended answers. See photos included for how foldable is fitted together. Foldable pictures are B+W however could quite easily be printed in colour.
