Students research the periodic table using laptops (or information sheets) and fill in their sheet, then produce a leaflet on the periodic table and atomic structure. You can easily change the ‘demonstrate’ task at the bottom of the sheet or add another question. Created with OCR 21st Century Science Topic C2 (Chemical Patterns) in mind but would work for other specifications or could be easily adapted. (The preview is cropped but the actual document has borders!)

A card sort about diamond, graphite, graphene and fullerenes. One slide is scrambled, the other unscrambled to be used as either an answer sheet or an information source.

Made for GCSE Combined Science (Trilogy) Energy Changes topic. Includes both drawing and interpreting energy level diagrams/reaction profiles.

Worksheet for practising drawing displayed formulae of alkenes and their reaction products (including hydration producing alkanes, halogenation producing haloalkanes, and water producing alcohols). Used for AQA GCSE Separate Chemistry, Organic Chemistry topic.

Revision mat/summary sheet for C5 Chemical Changes (AQA). Includes questions on reactivity series, metals & acids, extraction of metals, acids & bases, salts (& naming salts), acids & alkalis, neutralisation, dissociation, pH, and strong and weak acids.

Information and questions about complete and incomplete combustion. Used for AQA Separate/Trilogy Chemistry, Organic Chemistry topic.

Covers resources & sustainable development, alternative methods of extracting metals (bioleaching/phytomining), life cycle assessments (LCAs) and recycling, reducing use of resources, potable water, wastewater treatment and required practical - analysing and purifying water samples.

2 differentiated worksheets where students work out the displayed and molecular formula of the first 8 alkanes. Second more difficult sheet also includes working out the empirical formula.

Worksheet on identifying atomic number, atomic mass, number of protons, neutrons and electrons in atoms. Practice/SLOP/revision for AQA GCSE Chemistry C1 Atomic Structure & Periodic Table (or other exam boards). Answers included.

Worksheet created for a Y7 lesson on writing/interpreting chemical formulae. The formatting and subscript lettering is the same as on the main preview image, not on the other previews as TES messes these up for some reason!

Information sheets for an active learning activity about alloys, accompanied by a research sheet/worksheet to fill in. This was designed with OCR 21st Century Science C4 (Material Choices - Improving the Properties of Materials) in mind, but alloys are covered on many syllabuses and this could easily be adapted. An answer table is included in the PowerPoint so you can get students to self-mark/correct. All images are used under a CC0 license (no attribution required, for personal or commercial use).

Worksheet designed for AQA GCSE Chemistry Chemical Analysis topic, covering: Positive ions - flame tests, flame emission spectrophotometry and line spectra, metal hydroxide precipitates. Negative ions - carbonates, sulfates and halides. Summary combining positive and negative ion tests.

(No answers) Summary sheet on separating and purifying substances. This was created for the Edexcel 9-1 GCSE but could be adapted for other specifications.

I created this workbook for my students when studying crude oil (hydrocarbons, alkanes/alkenes, displayed/molecular/general/empirical formulae, properties of hydrocarbons e.g. boiling point/viscosity/flammability, complete/incomplete combustion, cracking and testing for alkenes). I have tried to include concise, clear notes for students to refer to, plus practice questions. There is a section for students to write down key definitions (most of these are indicated clearly within the text). I hope it is useful for you!

I created this workbook for my students when studying periodic table (modern periodic table, history of the periodic table, group 1, transition metals, group 7 including displacement reactions, group 0). I have tried to include concise, clear notes for students to refer to, and some practice questions. There is a section for students to write down key definitions (most of these are indicated clearly within the text). I hope it is useful for you!

Selection of activities for teaching about the earth’s early atmosphere and how it changed, including a storyboard with answers, cloze activity with answers, and 2 exam-style questions (short questions or a 6-mark) with suggested mark schemes. Covers 4.9.1.2 of AQA GCSE Chemistry (the earth’s early atmosphere).

Information sheet and questions on phytomining and bioleaching. Used as a research task for Y11.

3 tasks I set my Y7 and Y8 students for remote learning about the Rock Cycle. The students all drew the diagram of the rock cycle in their book. Higher ability annotated it with the clues AND added extra detail via the stretch questions, middle ability annotated without the stretch questions. I have included my attempt/modelling, which I attached to assist students with this task. Low ability drew a simpler diagram and copied & completed a gap fill (very low reading ages - some pre-reception). High and mid ability then wrote a story/created a storyboard to describe the journey of a piece of rock at point 1, all the way through the cycle to point 12. This was followed by a Kahoot challenge and an educake quiz. Rock Cycle Remote Learning 1 - higher ability Rock Cycle Remote Learning 2 - middle ability Rock Cycle Remote Learning 3 - lower ability I have attached them as both PPT and PDF in case students have difficulty opening PPT at home.
