Science Teacher and Marathon Runner! I graduated top of my class from the University of Limerick (BSc with concurrent teacher education) in 2015 and having taught in the Irish and UK system I have a in depth appreciation for curriculum. I currently teach Biology and Chemistry at A-Level and GCSE science in London. I am passionate about science and thoroughly enjoy creating resources, please feel free to review my resources.

The Electrophilic substitution reaction of Benzene

(0)
This lesson allows the students to see that ALL electrophilic substitution reactions of benzene progress by the same mechanism: 1 - formation of the electrophile in situ; 2 - attack of the electrophile on the ring; 3 - reformation of the catalyst. 6.1.1 (d) The electrophilic substitution of aromatic compounds with: (i) concentrated nitric acid in the presence of concentrated sulfuric acid (ii) a halogen in the presence of a halogen carrier

Investigating Electrolysis of Aqueous Solutions

(0)
Complete lesson and worksheets for electrolysis required practical. Can be adapted to cater for higher or foundation level. Solutions can be found on the resource (Half equations and electrolysis of aqueous solutions). Chemical Changes as per AQA combined science and GCSE chemistry.
The development of the model of Benzene

The development of the model of Benzene

(0)
This lesson looks at how scientific knowledge develops over time as more evidence becomes available. It is also a chance to review the shapes of atomic orbitals as it builds on knowledge of side-on overlap of the p-orbitals to form the delocalised pi ring of electrons. Students meet the arenes in year 12, but only in passing, so they will have little idea as to the molecular and structural formula of benzene.
Process of Electroylsis

Process of Electroylsis

(0)
An introduction lesson to electroylsis based on chemical changes for AQA combined science and GCSE chemistry. Recap of ionic bonding and state symbols. Predictions electroylsis of molten salts. Simple half equation examples.
Conservation of Mass Calculations

Conservation of Mass Calculations

(0)
Simple activity that shows conservation of mass through calculations. The use of equations with state symbols challenges students to think of situations where mass ‘appears’ to increase or decrease.
Balanced chemical equations
