This lesson covers the changing models of the atom up until todays structure with the nucleus containing neutrons and protons and surrounded by shells containing electrons.

This is an introductory lesson to the concept of conservation of mass where students investigate what happens to the mass of water when salt is added to it. They then have to try and explain why the mass goes up despite not being able to see the salt anymore. Self contained lesson that really got the students engaged. Save yourself some time and grab a bargain.

This lesson revolves around a practical where students have to experimentally determine which site of salt production presents the best yield of salt. Students then use their results to calculate the concentration in g/dm. This is then built on in the following lesson to calculate mol/dm. Save yourself some time and grab a bargain.

This lesson encourages students to start thinking about continuous and discontinuous data with lots of concrete examples. They plot a human bar graph of favourite colours and then carry out a small experiment investigating how the volume of vinegar added to baking soda alters the amount of foam produced. This easily lasts a double lesson (100minutes) and is a really fun way to get students engaged with graphs. Save yourself some time and grab a bargain.

This is an introductory lesson where students use their prior knowledge of atomic mass (Protons and neutrons) to create their own definition for an isotope. They are then guided on how to calculate relative atomic masses from relative abundances of isotopes. Worked well with a middle ability year 9 class.

This lesson starts by assessing prior knowledge of the keywords - displacement, velocity and vectors. It then draws on prior knowledge of speed calculation. It then introduces the concept of displacement and student then get to calculate displacement. A worksheet is built into this powerpoint which can be printed off accordingly. This lesson worked well for my low ability year 11 class as it is very visual.

This is an introductory lesson to chromatography and the term pure. Students create a chromatogram of their own pen and compare it to others. They discover real life applications of this technique.

This assembly powerpoint takes a twist on the idea of setting a new years resolution, by hanging on to the idea that everybody wants to be successful. It then looks at what successful people do to ensure they are successful with school based examples that students can relate to. If students haven't mad new years resolutions this assembly will inspire them to and if they have then it may give them some more to work towards. This assembly lasted 15 minutes and went down well with the students.

This lesson is based on the new GCSE spec, but was designed for a low ability year 9 class. It breaks Newton's second law up in to more digestible chunks which are learning checked throughout. Students are also encouraged to re-arrange the F=MA formula and tested on this skill. Save yourself sometime and grab a bargain!

This lesson is aimed at KS3 to help to develop students investigation skill where they have to identify and categorise the different variables in the experiment, choose the control variables and explain why. The practical is simple and fun where they see how much stomach acid (HCl) branded and unbranded heartburn tablets neutralised. This is a self contained lessons with all instructions and worksheets built in. This will easily last a double period, so grab yourself a bargain and save some time.

This assembly takes a twist on the idea of setting resolutions that are usually broken and instead gets students thinking about setting up longer term plans for their futures and setting smart targets. It lasts around 15 minutes and is a great assembly for the start of the new year. It is aimed at all secondary year groups and worked well when I performed it especially when students got involved. Save yourself some time this Christmas and grab a bargain.

This lesson introduces student to the concepts of relative atomic mass and relative formulae and uses this as a platform to introduce calculation of empirical formulae. The calculation of empirical formulae is introduced through a methodical tabled approach which students can master readily and then attempt with out the framework. They then get to practice their calculation on a made up compound made of sweets. If they get the empirical formula correct they get to eat the sweets. Save yourself some time and grab a bargain.

This introductory lesson leads students to define ionizing radiation for themselves. They then carry out a scavenger hunt (Print off information sheets and put around classroom) to collect information on the three types of ionizing radiation. This lesson also includes learning checks. Worked well with a year 9 low ability class.

This introductory lesson has a built in worksheet which challenges students understanding of momentum and really gets them to understand how momentum can be manipulated by velocity and mass - essentially students work out the momentum of 3 different size vehicles which turn out to have the same momentum. This lesson is simply a step by step guide to calculating momentum and worked really well with my low ability year 11 class.

This assembly takes a twist on the idea of setting resolutions that are usually broken and instead gets students thinking about setting up longer term plans for their futures and setting smart targets. It lasts around 15 minutes and is a great assembly for the start of the new year. It is aimed at all secondary year groups and worked well when I performed it especially when students got involved. Save yourself some time this Christmas and grab a bargain.

This assembly takes a twist on the idea of setting resolutions that are usually broken. It starts with statistics on the most popular resolutions and the further statistics on how likely people are to stick to resolutions all in a very clear and colourful way. It then leads on to students setting a resolution to learn to fail and that breaking resolutions isn’t necessarily a bad thing as long as they can learn from their mistakes and try again. It then goes on to go through some high profile case studies of successful people who have failed many times but not given up and learned from failure. It lasts around 15 minutes and is a great assembly for the start of the new year. It is aimed at all secondary year groups and worked well when I performed it especially when students got involved.

The start of this lesson involves a BIG write where students are provided with information on the water poisoning incident at Camelford and are asked with success criteria to explain how they could test to see if the water was safe to drink using knowledge from previous lessons in this topic. The second half of this lesson involves a learning check to see who is confident with writing and balancing symbol equations. On the back of this check confident students compete in a race with other groups of confident students to balance a series of ever increasingly hard equations. Students who are less confident work with the teachers in a focus group on balancing equation. I used this for an observed lesson and it worked really well.

Entire KS3 scheme of work with level assessed task and end of unit test with markscheme and levels. Created around the new KS3 national curriculum framework it encompasses powerpoint based lessons and associated worksheets, homework and assessments Each lesson includes a requisition list for lab techs and where it is not obvious foot notes have been created. Each lesson has been planned to last between 50-60 minutes and includes differentiated outcomes and activities I taught this to my year 7s and it worked really well but also allowed me to make a few tweaks that you can now benefit from. All in all it took me about 20 hours to create during my summer holidays so save yourself some time and grab yourself a bargain!

Lesson 1 looks at investigating through a practical why some waters lather better than others and concludes with a BIG write/6 mark question that has success criteria which can be readily marked by yourself or the students. Lesson 2 - Introduces students to the idea of calculating concentrations of solute in solutions. All worksheets are provided. Save yourself some time and grab a bargain.
