Universal and sustainable resources which can be picked up by a teacher at any level of experience. Each lesson has been tweaked over years of experience teaching at a sixth form college. Students have enjoyed the lessons and achieved amazing results. All of my powerpoints have a colour scheme, bold imagery and the same font throughout - because style is important! I hope that these resources will save you time and free up your energy to make teaching more fun.

The Carbon Cycle and Energy Security, Edexcel, A level. Full scheme of work with end of topic test, homework and mark schemes.

11 Resources
This is a full scheme of work for Carbon that I have used for four years with great success. I have edited and improved it during that time. It includes model answers that I have written and some fun tasks to motivate students. The slides are stimulating and the lessons cover a variety of skills including interpretation of data and graphs. There is a strong focus on exam question practice and knowledge retention. The homework set for students will be based on revision for class quizzes (which you can run as a competition) and also longer written answers to exam questions based on content which the students have learned in previous lessons. To support the students’ studies, I have referred to the Oxford Book 2 in these lessons. It would be useful to have a class set. Otherwise, the powerpoints are self contained and can be taught by a teacher at any level of experience and to students of varied ability.
