This is a fun MCQ and fill in the blanks quiz about cells, which is suitable for advanced learners (e.g. 'A' - Level or IB Diploma students). This quiz should save you a lot of time, and is the the perfect starter or plenary to an advanced-level cell biology lesson.
The quiz covers the following key words and phrases:
Cell membrane
Cytoplasm
Endoplasmic reticulum
Golgi bodies (you can change this to 'Golgi apparatus', if you wish)
Mitochondria
Nucleus
Ribosomes
Organelles
Enzymes
Proteins
Lysosomes
Vacuole
Nucleolus
Nuclear membranes
A brilliant, well-illustrated, clear and varied worksheet that works well as starter, plenary or as a chunk of the main body of lesson.
Suitable for GCSE or IGCSE Chemistry, Science (Double Award) or Science (Single Award), this resource covers:
1. The differences between elements and compounds in terms of physical structure (represented by diagrams), ease of separation and reactivity
2. Groups and periods in the periodic table, and how they relate to valence electron and shell number
Comes complete with answers. Great for peer or self-assessment.
Included in this pack are both the word doc (which you can edit) and pdf versions.
This is an awesome crossword puzzle that would serve as an excellent starter, plenary or in-lesson activity for any periodic table and electron shells class. This crossword tests students’ knowledge of:
Order of filling of electrons
Position of elements in the periodic table
Electronic configurations of type 2,8,2 (s,p and d orbitals are not covered)
This is a lot of fun and my students loved it. The kids will literally have to hunt through a periodic table to find answers to clues such as:
This element has an electronic configuration of 2,7
This element has an electronic configuration of 2,8,5
The first three periods of the periodic table are tested.
In this pack you get a PPTX (which you can edit), a pdf version and a png of the puzzle itself (in case you want to project it on your interactive whiteboard for students to fill in).
This is basically a big collection of worksheets that covers the entire content from a typical IGCSE Edexcel Chemistry first year class (i.e. Year 10 in the British system). This workbook has massive crossover with other IGCSE Chemistry and GCSE chemistry syllabuses.
Guaranteed to:
Save you planning time
Provide meaningful material for homework or classwork

Topics covered:
Particle Theory
Density, pressure and diffusion

The only disadvantages of this resource are:
It’s a big word document so might need a little tidying-up prior to printing
There’s no answers with it yet (but I’m working on that)
This is my third book (published April 7th 2020). This file is a downloadable pdf. The book includes:
A risk-assessment list for teachers who are involved in online teaching (contains some not-so-obvious things to be aware of)
Tips for teachers when using social media
A list of 100 apps teachers can use for online learning, with advice on how how each one can be used.
Review on Amazon.com, April 17th 2020:
100 Awesome Online Learning Apps is actually quite an AWESOME book. The book is very timely and significant. It lists 100 different apps and divide them in four sub groups,
Communication & Collaboration
Creation
Constructing knowledge
Assessment and Feedback
This helps the book easier to navigate as per your needs. The description of each app is kept crisp and to the point. The author does not bore you with unnecessary details and just sticks to recording what it offers and it’s benefits. The whole world has turned to online teaching during these crazy times and it can be very difficult to decide on which app to use for what. One app may suit best for communication while another suits best for evaluation. This book from an experienced teacher and Google Certified educator comes as a relief and helps you decide. Best thing is both students and educators can use this for their benefit. Very useful and helpful.

I am currently using these reosurces with my students at school and they find them to be really clear and helpful.
After teaching and tutoring thousands of chemistry students over the years, I've found that the topic of ions tends to cause tremendous confusion (and is generally poorly understood).This is one of those fundamental topics that must be understood properly if students are going to learn about balancing equations, stoichiometry and advanced level chemistry later in in school.
I created this resource booklet as a very clear way for students to understand the following:
• What the period and group numbers tell us about the structure of an atom
• What anions and cations are
• How to use the group number of an element to figure out what kind of ion it will form
Complete with full colour images, activities and answers; this booklet finally offers a clear and comprehensive explanation of this fundamental topic in chemistry. At the end there is also a link to a website, where students can take this topic to the next level and learn about ionic bonding and the formulae of ionic compounds.
I've set the price at 2 pounds because this resource took a lot of time to create, and is of a very high quality.
