A very simple Drag and Drop resource to reinforce the limestone cycle. Double click on the html file.

I have made a very simple information sheet about forming mineral acids, for display or handout. Very few students are aware of this bit of basic chemistry, so I think it is worthwhile.

A simple cut & match activity which is really just practice at naming and recognising structures and their representations. I made this because I enjoy doing this sort of thing!

Exam boards often take unknown substances and ask students to apply their understanding of chemistry to them. To provide practice answering this type of question, I am developing a series of worksheets with this type of question. The series is called Practicexamquest.

I got my gel pens out, and by request, cobbled together a hydrolytic lock & key cartoon. Its worse even than the associative one.
What is a chemical bond?

Short , overly simplistic, clunky representation of covalent bond at GCSE level. Me experimenting again. It’s a big file, so it’s probably best just to use the link to Youtube on this page.

Match the definition to the word. Words taken for AQA GCSE science ‘how science works’ Please note: this can be printed on two sides of the same sheet, because the definitions are on the same side- no need to keep turning over. Update: I have now included a simple presentation with the definitions.

Whacky narrated video showing how to answer the ‘draw a ray diagram to show the formation of an image by a plane mirror’ type question.
