Covers all of Chem4
These google forms are designed to allow you to either print or mail direct to you students and they can self assess what they know against the required specification.
When completed either within the email or in an internet browser (works perfectly on mobile devices) the evaluation from the class is sent directly back to you where a breakdown of the responses is built into the form. (responses - summary of responses).
**UPDATE** Digital gforms are linked to in the word document only
Each form only takes pupils a few minutes to fill out and are much quicker than traditional Red/amber/green self assessments.
Ideally complete after the lesson is taught, at the beginning of any revision period and at the end of a revision session.

Demonstration:
Practical:
Main 1:
This is the levelled task for this topic. We will be used to level along UK national curriculum levels you ability to carry out an investigation. The assessment is looking mostly for your ability to make links between the topics and explain both verbally and using diagrams. The levels available will range from a 3c (lowest) to a 7a (highest).
If pupils have already achieved a 7c or above in the previous levelled practical they will be given the opportunity to use the GCSE criteria, these have much more criteria to be completed but will allow pupils to achieve grades rating from a FAIL to an A*.
Learning Objectives
Investigate how speed of cooling affects the crystal size of minerals.
Link the properties of igneous rocks with where they cooled.
Use particle diagrams to explain the difference between intrusive and extrusive
Settler:
Revision of intrusive and extrusive from previous lesson.
Starter:
Pupil write their own hypothesis for the practical – discuss what makes a good hypothesis.
Fter pupils have done theirs they can asses themselves based on the WAGOLL in the ppt.
Demonstration:
Practical:/ Main 1:
Pupils carry out the salol/lead iodide or stearic acid cooling practical.
Main 2:
Pupils write an analysis for this experiment, using the mark scheme. Pupils can then peer assess using the markscheme and the WAGOLL.
AFL: Ask pupils at the end how giants causeway was made and importantly where? Photographs in ppt.
Learning Objectives
To describe the three types of weathering, Biological, physical and chemical.
To be able to give examples of all three types of weathering.
To link the weathering process to the landscape.
Use particle diagrams to explain weathering
Settler:
Starter:
Demonstration/Main 1:
Draw diagrams to represent the three types of weathering on the board if you are not confident use the textbook. Pupils need to be able to use particle diagrams - in this case particle means rock pieces of any size.
Practical:
Show the frozen rock breaking demo as an example of freeze thaw.
Main 2:
Link to the landscapes of Qatar, erratics etc.
AFL:
Show photos of different types of weathering and ask pupils to identify them
Learning Objectives

In this activity plan you will find the SOC codes to import my quiz to your Socrative room. This is a great revision activity that you can use with the whole class as starters, plenaries, or to consolidate learning on 'making cars&'! If you are not familiar with Socrative, I explain the key steps of this great interactive teaching tool.
An opening lesson for AQA C1.1 or Edexcel C2.1, learning the structure of the atom, the subatomic particles, periodic table and electronic configuration.
UPDATE: 20 more slides added in 2nd presentation.
Use these popular webcomics (open source) to spice up your plenary or homework activities, these multifaceted comics are great for stimulating further learning or emphasising a certain point of your lesson. Includes two different activities described and nearly 100 different science related cartoons ranging from KS3 to A-level and beyond. Covering topics as varied as genetics, elements, forces and the scientific method.
