This PowerPoint (with suggested practical activities) contains content for two full lessons. The resources will allow you to teach a broad range of abilities about corrosion, rusting and will introduce the reactivity series of metals. The lesson is in keeping with the current KS3 UK National Curriculum, is easily accessible for students and simple to follow for teachers. This is one of several lessons that I offer for free so users can sample my work before deciding whether to pay for further resources. The other free lessons that I offer are detailed in the attached document “Year 8 Science lessons checklist”. If you find these lessons useful, please leave constructive reviews and take a look at the many discounted bundles that I offer across KS3 and KS4.

Table to complete, jumbled help-sheet for support, plus answers. For use with my whole lesson PowerPoint SC7d on Types of Substances and Bonding Models.

To go with my Year 7 Acids and Alkalis lesson on "Hazards and Hazard Symbols".

Full Lesson PowerPoint (with independent learning activity) sufficient to teach the GCSE 9-1 specification Chemistry lesson explaining why there are energy changes in exothermic and endothermic reactions, including drawing reaction profiles and the new content on bond energies and their use to calculate reaction outcomes. The resource is accessible for students, easy for teachers to follow and is appropriate for Combined and Triple Science classes, Foundation and Higher tiers (the final activity & learning objective is Higher-tier only).

Worksheet to go with my lesson on Ionic Compounds - Naming and Formulae. The worksheet provides practice at using ionic charges to determine the formula of a given compound, including use of brackets for polyatomic ions. Answers are included.

This full lesson PowerPoint (with suggested practical activity) will allow you to teach a broad range of abilities about oxidation reactions (including writing word equations and balanced equations). 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 SC21c-d on Climate Change (the Atmosphere Today).

To go with my Year 8 lesson "The Rock Cycle".

To go with my GCSE Chemistry lesson “Ions and Ionic Bonding”. Answers to the first half of the sheet (covering key-term definitions and formation of some common ions) are included. Answers to the second half cannot be presented in the same way and are in the associated PowerPoint which can be purchased from my shop. They are pretty straighforward to figure out if you do not want to purchase the entire lesson.

My shop - OnSpecScience - offers a range of free and paid resources covering KS3 Science and KS4 Chemistry. This document tells you which Year 8 lessons I have available for you to try for free. If you like them, please leave a review and consider buying some of my other lessons. I guarantee they will reduce workload and help to give you your life back :-)

This PowerPoint (with suggested practical demonstrations) will allow you to teach a range of abilities about Rates of Reaction and how to plot them graphically. Contrary to the suggested teaching order, this lesson is best delivered after teaching about collision theory and factors affecting reaction rate. The lesson consolidates factors affecting reaction rate, demonstrates the techniques used in the subsequent core practical, and provides much needed practice at drawing, interpreting and annotating reaction rate curves. 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 sufficient to teach the GCSE 9-1 specification Chemistry lesson on Dynamic Equilibrium. The resource is easy to follow for teachers and readily accessible for students. For Combined Science, Foundation students only need to cover the first two objectives; Higher tier candidates also need to learn about factors affecting the position of the equilibrium. Triple Science students also need to do the follow-up lesson (SC15b) on Factors affecting Equilibria. A clearer version of the worksheet can be downloaded from my shop in needed. Search for "GCSE Chemistry Haber Process worksheet to go with lesson CC12a SC12a “Dynamic Equilibrium”.

This provides an overview of all lessons needed to complete the Edexcel 9-1 Combined Science and Chemistry (Triple Science) courses. The document outlines what to teach in each lesson (sufficient to fully cover the new specification) and lists equipment for practical lessons wherever needed. Importantly, this document highlights which lessons are Higher Tier only and which are Triple Science only (many schools struggle to grasp this fully). I have found this order of teaching to be effective for gradually building skills and knowledge across two years. Moreover, it nicely breaks up the theory and practical-based topics. Please leave a brief review if you find this overview useful - thanks! BTW, all of these lessons have PowerPoints that can be purchased from my shop and the worksheets are generally available for free (unless copyright protected). Almost all of my lessons are also available in discounted bundles, just browse my shop - OnSpecScience.
