Making your own indicator
Neutralisation reactions
Dissolving
Filtering
Evaporation
This scheme of work was made when KS3 Levels were used, so you may need to amend the levels according to your own assessment criteria used for KS3.

This lesson includes a powerpoint reviewing solvent, solute and solution from the previous lesson, introducing the key words filtrate and residue, mini plenary assessment worksheet and a desert island practical problem using filter paper and labelling a filtration practical.
This scheme of work was made when KS3 Levels were used, so you may need to amend the levels according to your own assessment criteria used for KS3.
OCR A Level Chemistry A New Spec (from Sept 2015) - Redox lesson and assessment
This is the redox lesson for Module 2 - Foundations in Chemistry.
I teach this lesson after completing PAG 2.1 with the students to consolidate their learning on Acids and Bases.
The powerpoint covers what redox means, how to calculate oxidation numbers, illustrating what is oxidised and reduced in a reaction and the exceptions.
I have also included the assessment I use called 10 for 10 (10 qs in 10 mins) which is multiple choice and I use to assess the students' learning of topics 2.1.1-2.1.5. There is a checklist on the front for students to colour code and re-read pages in the OCR textbook on the areas they need to improve.
OCR A Level Chemistry A New Spec (from Sept 2015) - Group 2 lesson
