A lesson looking at the properties and uses of ceramics, composites and polymers. The lesson also recaps content from topic 2 and topic 7, covering the structure and bonding in polymers and the process of polymerisation (including how to draw repeating units for polymers)
Lesson features include:
- A series of basic recall questions from previous learning (water treatment, the purification of water required practical, rusting, methods to prevent corrosion, alloys and alternative methods of copper extraction)
- A fun introduction to the concept of a composite using a video
- A slide containing small information cards on the properties and composition of four different composites with a table to fill in (this could be used as an envoy activity/ group activity)
- Information on glass and clay ceramics
- Slides introducing the concept of a polymer and how polymerisation occurs
- Worked examples of how to draw repeating units with exam-style practice questions for students to attempt
- A paired teaching activity on thermosetting and thermosoftening polymers for students to complete. This is then followed by a independent learning task on the two types of polymer with success criteria provided
- An exam-style extension question comparing the structure and properties of thermosetting and thermosoftening polymers with animated mark scheme
- Review questions where students apply their understanding of the properties of materials to justify the selection of a material for a scenario
