Students plan and conduct their own conformity experiment in their school. Students use the lessons to revise content they have previously learned and apply it. students found this series of lessons very engaging as they thoroughly enjoyed the idea of making their own experiment. It worked well for Year 12 revision after we finished the content. The main ideas involved in this SOW prepare students for the research method questions in the AS Paper 2 spec. paper.

Three lessons are included which run through: Lesson 1 water testing: A reminder of Flame tests, and the introduction of cation precipitate tests. -Students complete a six mark question and summary table to remind themselves of C2 ion tests. -Students complete simple qualitative sodium hydroxide precipitate test with a number of metal cations in solution. Lesson 2 Qalitative test revision book: A reminder of anions. -Teacher could demo experiments from lesson 3 or explain using the PowerPoint slide -Students complete a booklet to summarise all tests learnt. Lesson 3: Students complete a circus of all experiments -test for halogens -test for sulfates -test for carbonate -flame test for cations -precipitate test for cations -Using these tests students solve a fictional (a ridiculous) murder.

This pack contains a complete SoW of 20 lessons. -Each lesson contains recap quizzes, model answers, and can be used to teach the unit effectively. -The SoW contains a range of revision card homeworks, 3 DIRT lessons,an end of unit test and exam reflection lesson. -Lessons contain a range of exam practice, graph skills and application questions to help improve student’s exam skills. -Students have the opportunity to recontruct: Godden and Baddley’s context dependency study, War of the Ghosts, Baddeley’s encoding study, Murdock’s Primacy and recency effect, Loftus and Palmer’s False memory experiment and many more to help evaluate their reliability and effectiveness.

Model answers for self reflection are provided.

A full KS3 scheme of work that contains six fully resourced lessons to allow your department to complete a Science Fair project. As a school we conducted this period for a two week cycle after half term to allow students to; produce an idea, write a hypothesis, plan a method, conduct an experiment of their choice and make their project. Class winners were chosen and then allowed to present their work in the hall for the rest of the school to see. This is the third year we have completed our science fair at my school. This year we had four entries that won prizes at the big bang fair regional competition. One of which was chosen as the Young scientist of the year regional winner and will be presenting their project nationally later next year. This pack contains: Assembly PowerPoint: To present to the whole school introducing the fair. Lesson 1: Producing an idea Lesson 2: Forming a Method Lesson 3: Pilot experiment Lesson 4: Experimental time Lesson 5: Conclusion and evaluation (making project) Lesson 6: Choosing a winner Lesson plans, resources and example project winners also included. I hope, if you are willing for a bit of chaos, that you see the same enthusiasm and creativity in your students as I have. good luck!
