I have taught secondary school science, Chemistry being my specialism, for 28 years. I have developed and used my resources in my own lessons, usually in response to a specific need or a gap in provision. I like resources that are multifaceted in the way they are used, if possible, so that they can be easily adapted to the needs of different classes, without necessarily having to alter them. I share my most frequently and successfully used here. I am now tutoring Chemistry online.

The A level Chemistry resources for teaching the** Mole Calculations **topic that allow you to focus your energy on a major factor that helps your students make the most progress – teacher feedback and the learning conversation. This set of resources contains:
The student handout with the Map for Mole Calculations and Summary Infographic is included, as well as the pdf to print as Notes.
The presentation, split into 6 sections and covering the whole of the Mole Calculations topic: The Mole, Formulae and Using Masses; a Map for Mole Calculations and Using Masses - laying out the explicit strategy so that students can deal with those unstructured questions; Standard Stock Solutions, Concentrations and Dilutions; Acid/Base Titrations and Calculations; Calculations Involving Gases and the Ideal Gas Equation; Balancing Equations from Mole Calculations.
Videos of the presentations. Teaching by an experienced, subject expert.
Use the video presentations for:
Flipped learning – students receive the teaching before your lesson and you can then spend your time with them consolidating, practicing, giving feedback and deepening their learning.
Cover work – if you are unable to be in the lesson, your students can still be moving forward,
Catch up – if a student was away for that section, they can catch up easily.
Homework support - students can review the teaching again, at their own pace.
Revision – students can revisit areas they are struggling with as revision for tests and exams.
Free up your time to do the bit that only you can do – engage with your students in the learning conversation so that they can make the progress you know they can make.
