A list of the various objectives for each of the topics in the C1 AQA Core Science Unit.
Students can show progress against what they know about a topic at the start and then at the end of a unit. This can then be used to produce a personalised revision programme for the student.
Alternative way of being used, is to print on stickers and use in books
Topics covered include atomic structure, limestone etc.
The idea works that students should know the core building blocks around the edge of the page. The task therefore is to summarise these key points in the middle, only focusing on the things they have forgotten:
The final task is to get this all on to a postcard - their revision notes to take away! This makes it all manageable for the student.
Topics covered:
atomic structure, isotopes, ions, electrolysis, relative atomic mass, percentage mass, yield, neutralisation
The idea works that students should know the foundation building blocks around the edge of the page.
The task therefore is to work inwards and begin to summarise these key points in the middle, only focusing on the things they have forgotten.
The final task is to get this all on to a postcard - their revision notes to take away! This makes it all manageable for the student.
This is one topic only and the full unit can be downloaded as a complete file.
Revision loop card activity for Additional Physics. Students need to cut out the cards and then sequence them so that the question on one card matches the answer on the next one. If the student get them correct, it will form a loop.
The answer sheet is also provided so that you can quickly check response and identify any mistakes made by the student(s).
A great activity to challenge students - who is quickest; to assess students and highlight misconceptions.
Loop cards include questions about:
atomic structure, bonding, ionic, covalent
The loop cards can be used as tool for assessment of prior learning, progress and revision. Students need to match the question on one card with the answer on another card, like dominoes.
The answer sheet is given at the end of the document.
This is good to do a pace and challenge activity.

This booklet supports a series of lesson and is designed for Entry Level/SEND students to allow them to access the key elements of science. If used in a mixed ability class, these booklets allow students to keep pace with the rest of the class whilst personalising the challenge and support they require.
The booklet is part of a series of booklets with a variety of tasks including matching keywords and definition, scaffolding, extended answers, research and a lot of practical work with matching results tables/graphs.
Some of the diagrams have had to be removed for copyright.

Core Chemistry Prediction Exam Paper - HIGHER - 2016
AQA Prediction papers based on previous examination questions.
There are 50 mark per paper (1 hour).
Question based on past papers but re-written for the purpose of the exam.
They are designed to get students to revise the key topics that are more likely to appear in the 2016 exam.
Paper come with mark scheme and so can be set as a class task, homework or revision task.
Foundation tier also available.
Core Science Prediction Papers - Higher - 2016 - Biology, Chemistry & Physics
AQA Prediction papers based on previous examination questions.
There are 50 mark per paper (1 hour).
Question based on past papers but re-written for the purpose of the exam.
They are designed to get students to revise the key topics that are more likely to appear in the 2016 exam.
Paper come with mark scheme and so can be set as a class task, homework or revision task.
Foundation tier also available.
This paper consists of new questions that have been designed around previous examinations.
The assessment is produced after mapping questions from previous years.
This includes a mark scheme as a separate document.
Great for revision and discussion.
Due to a number of requests these are some more assessment papers for additional biology, chemistry and physics.
These are 3 60 minute assessments that are made up of new questions from the additional science programme of study.
These help students with revision and preparation for examination. Really good when students have done all of the past papers already.
These are DIFFERENT to the predicted papers that are available separately.
These lessons have been created for the New Combined Science Trilogy course and are linked to the new AQA specification.
Each lesson varies in its content and are sold individually but they are also available as a complete BUNDLE (see bundles and SAVE).
Lessons include:
- Lesson Plan – a clear overview of the lesson, links to specification, three main objectives, keywords, resources, starters, 3 main activities and plenaries. Ideas are also included for differentiation for lower and more able students.
- PowerPoint – with lesson objectives and keywords on each slide.
- Additional resources – printable sheets for starters/plenaries/investigations.
- Support sheets – guidance for demonstrations and practical activities
All of these lessons will be continually updated and so please continue to revisit these resources for the most up to date resources.
