A very simple worksheet to aid the distinction of addition polymers from condensation polymers. Explanation on page 1, questions on page 2.

I made a whackey little video about lithium ion cells that may amuse.

For GCSE chemistry enjoyment

A learn-by-not-working activity suitable for the end of the summer term. Comes complete with the solution. 65 words from the three sciences. Word list on separate page.

I improved my 'learn the functional groups " video by giving time for students to recognise & shout out the name before the name appears.

A worksheet asking questions about the chemistry of unknown substances, as the exam boards do.

Part of my series of A level style questions on unfamiliar structures: comprises two pages of questions.

A simple worksheet. Explanation on page one, standard electrode potentials on page 2, and a few questions on page 3.

Sixth formers love cut & stick. They reinforce understanding and promote discussion. Cut sheet and stick sheet, with spaces to write in bond angles, number of bonding pairs and number of lone pairs.

I made a series of templates for the main aliphatic reaction mechanisms in OCR chemistry A level. They resemble exam questions where students have to complete the reaction with partial charges, lone pairs and curly arrows. The intention is that they can be printed out by students as often as is required, for practice. A solution is provided for each example. Included are: nucleophilic substitution, electrophilic addition, nucleophilic addition, radical substitution and elimination.

Made in response to confusion of a student. A tiny, nutty little video about this. Sixth formers might find it amusing and therefore memorable.

2,2,4-trimethylpentane, or iso-octane used to feature heavily in the OCR Salters A level chemistry, because it is an important additive to petrol. It has slipped out of the specification, but the examiner must be sitting on many questions that might be recycled to test understanding. This is a simple information sheet that gives answers to a legacy question that one of my students was completing. It aims to answer difficulties with the question in a graphic way. The sheet runs to three pages and examines isomerism.

Join the ions that cause precipitation. I have included an answer plus an OCR table of solubilities.

I made a crazy little video thing to give insight into precipitation.

Low levels of Serotonin are implicated in human depression. This worksheet asks exam-style questions about this essential neurological agent.

Exam-style questions using vanillin as an example. their are eight questions over two page.

Synoptic exam-style homework or classwork questions.

Based on AQA chemistry specification.
