Required practicals will replace controlled assessment in the new GCSE. These record and worksheets are much more than a method. They are designed to track students performance towards achieving their apparatus and skills and provide information to help them understand the background chemistry which is key to understanding an experiment and not just completing it. All the sheets can be bound together in-house into a Required Practicals workbook/log book, or you could hand the sheets out separately. Practical work may be assessed through the terminal examinations - be sure that your students haven’t just done the practicals but understand them fully! AQA states: Practical work is at the heart of science – that’s why we have placed it at the heart of each of our GCSE science specifications. By carrying out carefully considered practical work, students will enhance their investigative thinking, improve their mastery of techniques and consolidate their understanding of key scientific concepts. Professor Bunsen resources are tested in school and make the new GCSE in chemistry engaging and exciting. Most importantly it could save you and your school time and support your students to understand the practical work in greater depth.

AQA A-level chemistry unit 3.1.15 Amount of Substance - Lesson or Revision workbook with answers This workbook covers a whole unit of work combining detailed information sections with Cornell Style notetaking so the books can be used while you teach and students can add their own notes and ideas down the margin. Colour is used for the different types of sections to make the booklet more dyslexia friendly as I have found that chemistry notes and questions can often be very dense, and somewhat inaccessible for all students but particularly those who have dyslexia. The booklet can also be produced as a revision guide for the topic and contains all the notes and practice past paper questions you would need to revise along with worked examples. Parent and student friendly containing answers to all questions. This booklet is 34 pages long with answers to past paper questions provided at the back from page 27 onwards. It is provided in word and pdf. Contents How NMR works The NMR spectrum Interpreting 13C NMR spectra Interpreting 1H NMR spectra Explanation of spin coupling and multiplicity Combining techniques

Powerpoint lesson linked to workbook for the lesson with spaces for students to write answers, example examination questions and a mark scheme for the workbook. Save time by avoiding the need for your students to write out lengthy sets of notes or draw diagrams. The work book includes spaces for marking and feedback including checked by teacher and verbal feedback given. Also leaves space to stick in improvement work or complete on the page. Could substitute for class books providing evidence for progress over time linked to success criteria. Success criteria covered in this lesson are: I understand that an exothermic reaction is one that transfers energy to the surroundings so the temperature of the surroundings increases. I understand that an endothermic reaction is one that takes in energy from the surroundings so the temperature of the surroundings decreases. I can explain and evaluate uses of exothermic and endothermic reactions I can investigate the variables that affect temperature changes in reacting solutions such as neutralisation reactions. I write Professor Bunsen resources to teach and test in my own classroom and try to make the resources compatible with a lot of the ways in which we are currently being asked to teach science including feedback and improvements and redrafting. The new specifications are intensive on time, and I am testing out moving towards workbooks and away from ordinary class books. These could be differentiated towards your own students. I hope that I manage to make the new GCSE in chemistry engaging and exciting. Most importantly it could save you and your school time!

Support your students to learn the definitions they need for all the year 1 and AS topics in the new specification A-level chemistry! Each powerpoint activity sheet contains a mind map for each of the topics covered and a glossary of words to cut out. Students use the first mind map for reference and then cut out and stick the definitions on the second mind map. You could completely remove the words on the second mind map and encourage students to arrange the glossary themselves to make the activity more challenging. 3.1.1 and 3.1.2 Atomic structure and amount of substance 3.1.3 and 3.1.4 Bonding and energetics 3.1.5, 3.1.6 and 3.1.7 Kinetics, equilibria and redox 3.2.1 and 3.2.2 and 3.2.3 Periodicity, group 2 and group 7 3.3.1 and 3.3.2 Introduction to organic chemistry and alkanes 3.3.3 and 3.3.4 Halogenoalkanes and alkenes 3.3.5 and 3.3.6 Alcohols and organic analysis
