Because I wanted to

I made a simple worksheet about density. 5 pages. Two of info, one table of values, a page of questions and my answers. I have now added a keynote and powerpoint version.

I made a tiny presentation for teaching ester nomenclature. Students are challenged with a few structures and challenged to name them. The following slide gives the answer. Available in powerpoint and keynote.

Just to help remember the planetary sequence. 2 pages. plus whacky cartoon

As title

All chemistry students should have this somewhere in their folder. Plus a sheet with ten questions.

Just a simple label the boxes excercise.

a simple summary

Part of a series. I tend to do one for my students when we come across an example in a question.

There is a beautiful graphic depicting this on the internet. However, it is a bitmapped graphic . I have adapted it as a a scalar graphic, with improvements. Please get in touch if you want an editable version.

I made a tiny little widget thingummy. Press the button and watch the movement of myosin filaments during contraction or relaxation. Just for fun. Please note: in order to provide a rich interactive experience, my interactive resources are mini-web sites local to your computer. After unzipping, they comprise a folder containing the main .html file and another folder containing the graphic resources and my coding to make the resource work. Double click on the .html file and the resource will work. If, however , you move or delete any of the files from this hierarchy, the resource will not work.

I have tried to produce a clear example of an acid/base titration for use on the board or as a handout. I used colour to make it as clear as possible.

For display.

Label the diagram.

As it says on the tin. Suitable for AQA GCSE chemistry.

I made a series of templates for the main aliphatic reaction mechanisms in OCR chemistry A level. They resemble exam questions where students have to complete the reaction with partial charges, lone pairs and curly arrows. The intention is that they can be printed out by students as often as is required, for practice. A solution is provided for each example. Included are: nucleophilic substitution, electrophilic addition, nucleophilic addition, radical substitution and elimination.

I made a tiny gcse question about radioactivity.

Just a simple info sheet/poster.

An explanation of paper chromatography in a movie, with voiceover. In this animation, the dyes don’t smear, so students can see what is meant to happen, rather than what really does.
