Interactive behaviour checklist

(1)
This is an interactive behaviour checklist that replaces the smile/frown face ticklists that many teachers use to track behaviour throughout a lesson. Simply cut-and-paste in the pupils' names from your class register, and the Excel spreadsheet automatically populates the checklist. The behaviour labels can be customised to suit teachers' own management styles or to reflect their schools' behaviour policies. The one-click buttons instantly raise or lower behaviour points, highlight pupils with an attractive rainbow color scheme (in the correct spectrum order), and provide instant display and feedback on every pupil's behaviour during the lesson . There's even a random name picker for Q&A activities, revision, games...no more losing cups of lolly sticks! I use a version that is customised to each of my classrooms, and it has simplified my behaviour management tremendously. I simply display the spreadsheet on my whiteboard at the start of the lesson, highlight pupil names in green for following expected routines or in yellow for silly behaviour, and I rarely need to speak over or otherwise compete with noise and distraction in my classroom...the colours speak louder than I ever could! This is a generalised version meant for any teacher to pick and use right away (please note, this is a macro-enable Excel spreadsheet, and school staff may need to ask their IT departments to enable the content).

AS/A-Level Chemistry [all modules] guided notes

(1)
This is my guided notes series for A-Level Chemistry (OCR A), covering the entirety of the AS/A-Level course. I first starting producing these to help my students recover lost ground when their previous teacher left mid-year and I was asked to step in. They loved the reassurance of the scaffolding and structure provided in the notes, and really appreciated the practice in university-style lecture lessons. It can be useful in any A-Level Chemistry course, but it is optimised for use alongside the OUP A-Level Chemistry for OCR textbook. This complete set includes with editable originals in Word format. Note: Module 1 is the practicals (PAGs) module, and OCR have already produced a useful document for students, and I’m not about to reinvent that wheel again :) I hope this helps your planning and delivery…happy teaching!

6 mark writing questions

(6)
I've used these worksheets to give my GCSE pupils practise in reading, understanding, organising, and structuring their responses to attain maximum marks in the exam boards' 6 mark writing questions. The Biology question compares the pros & cons of embryonic vs. adult stem cells. The Chemistry question evaluates the use of ethanol as an additive to petrol. The Physics question asks pupils to justify the continued use of nuclear power. All questions require pupils to understand the science, as well as to consider the relevant economic/environmental/ethical/social impacts.

A kinaesthetic and interactive game to quickly role-play atoms gathering into groups to form molecules. Please note, you will need space for pupils to move freely, and probably a strong voice or whistle to be heard over the commotion :)
