This PowerPoint (with suggested practical tasks) will allow you to teach a range of abilities about catalysts and catalytic converters, including the new material on activation energy and enzymes. The resource meets all required specification points for the Edexcel 9-1 GCSE Chemistry course. It is accessible for students, easy to follow for teachers and is appropriate for Combined and Triple Science classes, Foundation and Higher tiers.

Full lesson PowerPoint (with independent learning activities) sufficient to teach a broad range of abilities about fossil fuels, how they form, and what the issues are with them. The lesson is in keeping with the current KS3 UK National Curriculum, is easily accessible for students and simple to follow for teachers.

To go with my lesson "Factors affecting reaction rate". Use page 1 for lower ability (has prompts) or page 2 for higher students (blank slate).

To go with my Year 8 lesson on "Igneous and Metamorphic Rocks".

Worksheets and mark-schemes providing practice at calculating Relative Atomic Mass. This goes with my full lesson PowerPoint GCSE Chemistry Isotopes and Relative Atomic Mass (SC3c CC3c).

To go with my GCSE Chemistry lesson on “Distillation and Methods of Separation”. See that resource for further instruction and context.

This PowerPoint (plus worksheet) are designed to introduce the meaning of concentration in Chemistry and teaches students how to use cubic decimetres to calculate concentration of solutions in g dm-3. The lesson is accessible for students, easy to follow for teachers and is required learning for Combined and Triple Science classes, Foundation and Higher tiers. Be aware: this resource covers concentration in g dm-3 only.
