A simple lesson on electronic configuration for A level.

Lesson on igneous rock

A step by step guide on how to write ionic equations. Mainly for year 11 but could be useful for year 12. It is a walk-through guide to help students with a very difficult concept. It starts with a step-by-step guide which can be written into books or printed for students. It will then go through a couple of examples on how to write them, in the same format as the step-by-step guide.

This is a 30 question chemistry baseline test for year 12's. It can either be used as a summer homework for year 11's going into year 12 or it can be used for new year 12's as a baseline assessment. All of the questions have answers in the attached mark scheme and they are all questions which have been taken from the year 11 and 12 specification, but should be accessible for the year 11's. The test will provide a good indicator on where your students are and which students need to do some work to get to the required level. It could also be used as a revision for year 12/13.

12 sheets with all of the PAG criteria highlighted for that specific PAG. The idea is that students use this for the start of each PAG as a front cover and it can be easiy checked off by the teacher if they have hit the required points.

A whole lesson, complete with exam questions on Le Chatelier's principle.

A GCSE lesson on rates of reaction.

A lesson with various tasks on metal extraction. It includes smelting, electrolysis and finding metals native. There's also a literacy based task (pictured). I have used this lesson many times and it is always well received by students and it makes it easier for them to understand how metals are extracted. It includes the extraction methods, the reactivity series and displacement reactions.

A GCSE lesson (Edexcel Combined Science specifically) going through an electrolysis introduction.

A lesson designed around catching Pokemon. It will helps students understand the concepts of levels, moments and pressure by summarizing them all up as one large task. There is a worksheet to help students answer the ultimate question... Given the physics information, who is the only Pokemon who can help you?

Lesson which goes over covalent bonding from start to finish. It starts with a recap of protons neutrons and electrons and the goes into covalent bonding. I have made an animated walk through which explains exactly how to draw a covalent bond and how to do an example of one. The PowerPoint has a step by step guide for students and the animations move with the steps. It then goes into double covalent bonds. Having used this lesson it makes explaining covalent bonding very simple.

A PowerPoint which goes through the whole of topic 18 for OCR A Chemistry A Level.

A lesson centred on the reactivity series and displacement reactions. It includes: A cartoon walk-through on displacement reactions A practical (should you wish to use it) Various questions

This is a revision lesson for the new 9-1 GCSE chemistry course. The aim of the lesson is for all students to go through the 13 specification points and write down what they know about them. Once this is done, students will colour in the first circle red or green (depending on their understanding). They then go to the 13 stations around the room and take a small worksheet for each one they put red for (maximum of 8). This is stuck onto the A3 paper. After the lesson they put red or green in the second circle. The revision sheets need to be on A3 paper in order to allow the sheets to be stuck on. Each sheet will need to be placed at a station where there is a resource to help the students. These are numbered so question 1 is resource 1. I have found this lesson to be extremely effective.

This is a GCSE lesson on how to calcualte bond energies.

Properties of covalent compounds. The differences between diamond and graphite.

A resource to help you plan a lesson on the practical aspect of rates of reactions. This resource will need to be explained, and therefore may not be useful for a non chemistry specialist.

Helps sheets which go through how to calculate the water of crystallisation, with examples.

Biofuels lesson including a for and against activity, questions and exam questions.
