A presentation with questions linked to the Organic Chemistry unit of the new AQA 1-9 course. There are assessment opportunities and worksheets that can be printed from the PowerPoint

A series of resources on bioleaching and phytomining. There is enough material for 2 or 3 lessons depending on lesson length. Plenty of opportunity for pupils to assess their own understanding and work in groups. All answers to activities are included in the presentation. The presentation takes pupils through both processes in a visual way before checking their understanding

A fully resourced lesson including answers to introduce collision theory for the rate and extent of chemical change unit. Lesson 1 for this unit

A lesson taking pupils through how to calculate percentage yield and the reasons why percentage yields are sometimes lower than expected. There are also some worksheets for pupils to complete. I print this on A5. The final activity is a 6 mark QWC question on sustainable development and percentage yield

A summary of the key ideas of electrolysis for students to use as a knowledge organiser or revision sheet. I have used it for cover lessons where pupils are asked to create flash cards in lesson and then learn for homework, ready for a test next lesson.

The fourth lesson in a series of 4 for the C5 topic – Bond energies are discussed and the combustion of methane is used to take pupils through the process of bond energy calculations before examples are provided for the students to try. A fully resourced lesson that can be taught stand alone. Answers are included.

The second lesson in a series of 4 for the C5 topic - Energy Changes. The everyday uses of exothermic and endothermic reactions are discussed and I usually bring in examples of these for the pupils to see / touch. The presentation has several examples and also an extended written question to compare a single use hand warmer with a reusable one. The lesson is fully resourced and can be delivered as a stand alone lesson

A fully resources lesson with a presentation about the greenhouse effect. Keywords are discussed. The main gases responsible for the greenhouse effect are introduced with an activity to research each gas and its effect. This lesson is suitable for KS3 and KS4

A fully resourced lesson on the topic of complete and incomplete combustion. The concept of incomplete combustion is discussed and compared to complete combustion, before the environmental / human impact of each is considered. Lesson 6 in a series for the AQA chemistry of the atmosphere unit, but can be taught as a stand alone lesson

The last 5 units for the Chemistry Paper 2 split into sub sections. Pupils are to spend no more than 4/5 minutes on each section to try and ensure that the whole of a topic is covered.

Presentation and linked worksheets to teach the subject content of the alkali metals for the new 2016 AQA Trilogy / Chemistry GCSE

A fully resourced lesson on catalysts with questions on a worksheet for pupils to answer, linked to the presentation and an experiment to carry out

A fully resourced lesson on building hydrocarbons. Pupils can be shown molecular models of hydrocarbons or build them themselves before looking at various ways to represent molecules such as ball and stick, and space fill models. An information sheet and comparison table are also provided so that pupils can look at the advantages and disadvantages of using each representation of the alkanes.

A lesson looking at the need to find alternative fuels to replace fossil fuels. The advantages and disadvantages of different fuels are considered.

I use this looped presentation at the beginning of a lesson whilst I am taking the register

Print the pH numbers on different colours of card if available. Print out the different everyday substances and cut them out. Give each child a different substance and get them to guess the pH of the substance. Show the PowerPoint presentation about the pH of the different substances to see if they were right. The final slide gives you a chance to ask pupil if they can spot any similarities between acidic, alkaline and neutral substances

Get as many samples of elements as possible and use to introduce the idea that there are different elements and how they differ. A presentation and accompanying worksheets are included. Test tubes of air can be labelled as gases etc. If needed
