The number of equations that are used in science and math courses can be overwhelming for some students. This resource is designed to remove some of the stress involved with keeping track of useful equations, and provide an easy point of reference for students when studying. Have your students file this chart at the front or back of their workbook, and encourage them to update it regularly.
This blank organizer chart contains three columns. In the first column, students write an equation in its symbolic form; in the second, they translate those symbols into words; and the third column provides space for an equation triangle or other visual aid. A page numbering space in the header makes it easy for students to add and organize additional pages as required.
Ideal for equation-heavy courses in physics, chemistry, economics, engineering, or mathematics at all levels.
Includes one two-page PDF file containing an organizer "front page" and a second page that can be copied double-sided to provide additional chart space.
A set of three lessons designed to introduce key concepts in physics to students who are new to studying the subject. Originally designed for the Edexcel 9-1 specification, these lessons would support any curriculum that introduces these concepts.
Each lesson includes a starter activity, a plenary quiz, and accompanying lesson notes sheets for students. This bundle also includes differentiated worksheets on unit conversions, and standard form and significant figures.
Lessons are designed to be presented in the following order:
Lesson 1: SI Units and Unit Conversions
Lesson 2: Standard Form and Significant Figures
Lesson 3: Scalars and Vectors
The price of this bundle represents a 20% savings on the cost of purchasing each resource individually.
A differentiated worksheet to reinforce basic concepts around significant figures and standard form/scientific notation.
The worksheet consists of three sections: Part 1 asks students to identify the number of significant figures in a given number; Part 2 requires students to give the answers to basic calculations using the correct number of significant figures; and Part 3 has students practice writing numbers in standard form. Students are asked to complete a minimum number of questions in each section, and each question has been designated as Level 1 (Easy), Level 2 (Medium) or Level 3 (Challenging).
This resource complements my lesson on Standard Form and Significant Figures. Originally designed to support the Edexcel 9-1 GCSE specification (outcome 1.4), the worksheet would be suitable for use with any curriculum. It could be used as part of an introductory lesson on these concepts, or as a revision resource.
Included is the worksheet in PDF, Word and Pages format, along with an answer key in PDF format.
A worksheet designed to accompany a demonstration of flame tests of different ionic compounds. Students are provided with a reference chart of flame colours for different ions and asked to predict which ions were present in each compound based on the colour of the flame. A short introductory paragraph explains what is happening at the atomic level to produce the colours.
While this was originally designed for a chemistry lesson on the structure of ions and ionic compounds, I've also used flame tests in teaching outcome 5.24 of the Edexcel 9-1 Physics GCSE. Any excuse to break out the Bunsen burners and make fun colours. You could adapt this sheet to support a student-led practical.
Includes the worksheet with reference chart, which is designed to be printed double-sided on A4 or US Letter. PDF, Word and Pages format available, so everything can be adapted to your requirements.
Set of 10 flashcards featuring names of common molecular compounds on one side and chemical formulas on the other.
Originally designed to support Canadian Grade 10 Science courses, but would be useful for any program of study where knowledge of common molecular compounds is required.
Includes one PDF file designed to be printed on both sides of a sheet of US Legal-sized paper.
