This free resource is a simple placemat which can be used alongside the GCSE Required Practicals in Science. This organiser is designed to help students before, during or after the required practical activites. It is designed to be used with KS4, but may be used with higher ability KS3. It covers all of AQA’s glossary of key terms and working scientifically that links with the required practcials. It cover approx 40 of the keywords associated with the Required Practical part of the course. Terms covered: Accuracy, calibration, data, error, measurement error, anomalies, random error, systematic error, zero error, evidence, fair test, hypothesis, interval, precision, prediction, range, repeatable, reproducible, resolution, resolution, sketch graph, true value, uncertainty, validity, valid conclusion, variables, categoric, continuous, control, dependent, independent, risk, hazard and control.

Update: Just added Electrical Models Lesson with animations This misconceptions teacher toolkit is (hopefully) all you need to start you on challenging and overcoming misconceptions in your science lessons. It includes: A full lesson aimed at KS3 or KS4 which challenges the misconception that solids do not push up and finishes with a 9-1 graded exam question on Newton’s 3rd law. (lasting 1 hour) Questionnaires for your classes to illicit misconceptions on Earth, Astronomy, Living Things, Magnets, Electricity, Matter and Chemical Reactions 9 different worksheets which use Analogies, CASE, Venn diagrams and Models to overcome misconceptions.

This is a full lesson covering Oxidations states for AS Level. It covers calculating the oxidation state of an element in a compound or ion from the formula; writing half-equations; identifying the oxidation and reduction processes in redox reactions and combining half-equations to give an overall redox equation. It also covers more complex half equations that include H+ (in acids) or transition metals. Included is: 40+ page Power Point with explanations and examples at each stage. 4 Sets of questions and answers (including exam style questions similar to ones from the AQA past papers) A sheet with diagrams (to save time) for students to make notes on A sheet of the oxidation state rules Answers in the Power Point and Word format to allow students to self assess or “correct” their answers. A free sheet of oxidation state rules are here: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/oxidation-state-rules-with-examples-as-level-12412598 Other AS lessons are available: Ionisation energy:https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/ionisation-energy-as-level-12412339 Electronic Structure:https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/electronic-structure-orbital-configuration-in-s-p-d-as-level-12405614 TOF Spectrometer and Isotope Calcuations: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/mass-spectrometer-tof-and-isotope-calculations-12386980 For other resources (free and paid), please visit my shop here: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/stephenkemp193 Please Comment if you have found this resource useful.

This resource contains a 30+ page Power Point (and pdf ) to guide students through the new Hazard symbols, their names, hazards and controls (precautions) that are needed in each case. Students have three tasks, a sorting activity, a memory activity and a longer activity which aims for them to think about the hazards, risks and more importantly the controls that need to be put into place to perform the practical safely. The activity contains: Four “fake” chemical Hazcard sheets Four Scenarios to challenge their thinking Posters of the new Hazard symbols with information on each Miniplenary to test knowledge gained. The free poster of the new hazard symbols can be found here: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/new-hazard-symbols-meanings-with-examples-for-lab-safety-12266717 Please check out my shop for more free (and paid) resources: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/stephenkemp193 Thank you

This is an A4 sheet which lists the ‘rules’ for filling the orbitals, sub-shells and shells for the first 36 atoms on the Periodic Table. It includes diagrams which students can use to help them learn the rules for filling up the orbitals. It also gives examples on the back which show how the rules can be applied. This is part of a lesson on Electronic Configuration that can be found here: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/electronic-configuration-in-orbitals-s-p-d-12405614 Please visit my shop for more free (and paid) resources: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/stephenkemp193 Thank you.
