A complete lesson on metals and oxygen based on the activate 2 SOW. The lesson includes a practical demonstration where students fill in a observation sheet and produce (simple) balanced equations. If you can get pure oxygen from the techies you can really promote a love of learning with this. A choice of 2 plenaries are included, reflective writing or whiteboard based. Answers to each learning checkpoint are incorporated into the slides via animation. Timers are included to promote pace.

A full differentiated lesson on the topic of states of matter. The lesson is based on the Activate 1 (C1.2) SOW but can be used for others. The lesson includes a card sort, written activities and a practical exercise where students study the change of state in stearic acid. Animations and timers are included to promote peer/self correction of answers and to promote pace respectively.

A full lesson based on the new AQA (C5.2) SOW but could be used for others. This lesson has been prepared for a low to mid range ability. Displacement reactions are introduced through the starter and a short talk, students are prompted to take note of key text highlighted in red. There is then a short scaffolded activity where students must predict whether or not a reaction will occur by referring to the reactivity series. There is then a teacher led demonstration of such reactions, during which students must complete a table handout. Following a review of observations students are taught about carbon and hydrogens position within series during a short talk. Students then apply themselves to questions based on the content of the lesson. The plenary involves students reflecting upon their progress against the learning objectives. All answers are included through animation facilitating self/peer correction during questioning. Timers are included to promote pace. Instruction for the lab demonstration are also included.

Full lesson including all resources, differentiated questions and support sheets

A complete differentiated lesson (including practical) based on the activate 2 'acid and metals' content. The lesson includes and introduction to the topic, outline of practical, prediction/conclusion writing and a differentiated question grid 'challenge' to act as a plenary. Timers are included to promote pace and all answers are incorporated into the slides via animation. This lesson was delivered to a year 8 group, all abilities supported.

A complete lesson based on the activate 1 SOW and pitched to a year 7 class. The lesson is differentiated with the use of 'stretch' activities and support sheets for more and less able respectively. The differentiated question grid challenge pushes all abilities within the group. A fun whiteboard activity is included relating to hazard symbols. This lesson includes timers to promote pace, and powerpoint animations to facilitate Q/A during review of answers at each learning checkpoint.

A complete differentiated lesson with everything you need for the properties of ionic compounds. Tailored towards Edexcell SOW but can be used for others.

A complete lesson with everything you need for the topic of ions. Based on Edexcell SOW but can be used for others. Includes timers to promote pace and powerpoint animation to facilitate Q/A during peer or self correction of answers. Class wide AFL included and quiz for plenary exercise.

A full lesson with everything you need for molecular compounds. Based on Edexcell SOW but can be used for others. Powerpoint animations and timers included to allow for Q/A during peer or self correction of answers and to promote pace receptively. Support sheets and stretch activities included to facilitate differentiation. Reflective plenary based on progress against the LO’s also included. PP question as starter based on covalent bonding.

A full lesson covering rates of reaction (temp catalysts etc.) and how to calculate it from a graph. Lesson is fully differentiated, includes timers for pace and has powerpoint animations to facilitate Q/A during a review of each learning checkpoint. Lesson is based on OCR SOW but could be used for any.

A complete, differentiated lesson on the halogens. This lesson was prepared for a high ability year 9 group and is very fitting for year 10. Lesson includes timers to promote pace and PowerPoint animations to facilitate Q/A during review of each learning checkpoint. Plenary activity is an exciting ‘car race’ quiz with prepared questions included.

A complete differentiated lesson with everything you need for ions and ionic lattices. Tailored towards Edexcell but can be used for any SOW.

A full lesson with everything you need for covalent bonds. Based on Edexcell SOW but can be used for others. Animations and timers included to promote pace and Q/A during self or peer mediated correction of answers. Differentiated question grid included which also promotes challenge. Reflective plenary included based on progress against LO’s.

A complete lesson based on 3 key areas within OCR chemistry C3. This lesson was produced for a high ability year 11 group during exam intervention, differentiation through the use of the included support sheets would facilitate use with lower abilities. It covers the following: percentage yield and atom economy, reaction masses (calculations) and batch vs. continuous processing . The lesson contains timers to promote pace and is fully animated to allow a Q/A session during peer assessment of answers after each learning checkpoint. The plenary is designed to guide students to reflect on their progress/emerging needs.
