Full set of easy to understand and straight to the point PowerPoint slides to accompany your teaching of structure, bonding and the properties of substances at GCSE level KS4 chemistry
These slides aim for an easy clear, direct approach to this topic.
The slides form part of my larger “Big Ideas” scheme of work for Structure and Bonding that is suitable across all GCSE examination boards with connections and unit numbers given in the scheme of work.
Please take a look at the attached scheme and if you like the scheme and the slides why not try the worksheets and mark schemes to go with them in my complete teaching bundle for only £7.50!
‘Big ideas’ in chemistry is about identifying and systematically teaching the overarching principles and crucial concepts your students need to become outstanding chemists. Many resources and books are produced with a single exam specification in mind which can leave your students with better knowledge in some areas than others and can make changing exam boards more difficult due to costs of resourcing. Liberate yourself from the exam specification and teach this amazing subject holistically ensuring your students have the detailed knowledge they need to gain confident mastery and an ability to apply their knowledge in unfamiliar scenarios. ‘Big ideas’ enables easier transfer between exam boards for students and teachers (especially non-specialists), and ‘connections’ enables you to place your own emphasis during teaching on concepts important to the actual exams your students will be sitting.
Introductory lesson with practical, worksheet and mark scheme to kick start a unit on structure and bonding and the properties of substances. Technician sheet included for the practical.
