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

To go with my lesson on Fractional Distillation of Crude Oil.

To go with my KS3 lesson on Burning Fuels. This worksheet covers the products formed when hydrocarbons combust (completely) and serves as an introduction to writing word equations for combustion. Best used alongside a suitable demo or video of the setup shown on the worksheet.

This full lesson PowerPoint (plus suggested practical task) will allow you to teach a broad range of abilities about nutrients and the tests for starch and fat. 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.

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

To go with my lesson 8Db on Microscopic Fungi (Yeast).

This worksheet can be used in a lesson to first teach students about the parts and flames of a Bunsen burner, then to test their ability to safely light and use one. There is a full lesson PowerPoint that can be used with this sheet; it is available to buy from my shop - OnSpecScience.

To go with my lesson SC20d "Complete and Incomplete Combustion".

To go with my lesson on Food Chains and Food Webs.

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 :-)

To go with my lesson on Crude Oil, Hydrocarbons and Alkanes.

Worksheet on the Haber Process. Foundation and Higher students on Combined and Triple Science courses need to cover this for the Edexcel GCSE Chemistry 9-1 specification (lesson CC12a/SC12a ).

To go with my lesson SC21c-d on Climate Change (the Atmosphere Today).

Practical method and worksheet to go with my GCSE Chemistry lesson on “Properties of Ionic Compounds”. Full details and equipment list for students to test solubility and conductivity of substances, to determine whether or not they are ionic.

To go with my lesson 8La “Evidence and Ideas about the Universe”.

Independent learning activity to go with my lesson on "Pregnancy, Development and Birth".

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.

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.
