A series of approximately three lessons where students are taken through: The structure of simple covalent molecules The properties of simple covalent molecules The structure of giant covalent molecules The properties of giant covalent molecules Structures of polymers Representing the structures of polymers Forming polymers There is a theme throughout this series of lessons where students use molymods to make abstract concepts far more concrete. This aids understanding and promotes engagement throughout a topic which can be both conceptually challenging, and quite dry to teach to students.

An introduction to Endothermic and Exothermic reactions aimed at KS4, taking students through a practical activity, before students attempt to tackle energy profiles.

Mixtures Vs. Compounds lesson. You will require sulfur, iron, magnesium, and bunsen burners. A fun and engaging lesson enjoyed by students.

A full lesson with follow up on the Chromatography required practical for GCSE AQA Chemistry. An enjoyable lesson, which students find useful in understanding key concepts. Video links, animations, and follow up questions included.

A lesson where students research different models of the periodic table. Designed to cover all learning outcomes for the AQA trilogy GCSE. Fun and independent!

Engaging lesson taking students through the chemical and physical trends of group 7 elements. This lesson includes visual instructions for students when completing displacement reactions for group 7 elements, as well as an observation sheet for their practical experiments. An enjoyable lesson for what can be a dry topic. This lesson pushes students to think further and understand the trends, opposed to just wrote learning.

Lesson taking students through the differences between mixtures and compounds, before considering how physical properties can be used to separate mixtures. This lesson provides an opportunity fro students to either practice or observe a demonstration on distillation, as well as understanding alternative techniques for separating mixtures. A fun and engaging lesson for what can be a dry topic.

A full lesson with tailored activity sheet to teach students about the structure and properties of metals and metallic bonds. This lesson uses a series of short animations and videos, each with complimentary activities, to discuss the bonding of metallic elements, and how this leads to their bonding properties. An enjoyable lesson, with great impact at imparting key ideas.

A full lesson taking students through the structure of the atom, before understanding how the structure of the atom was determined. Students also complete an evaluative exercise where they compare and contrast historical atomic structures, before determining their advantages and disadvantages. Covers all learning outcomes for atomic structure for the AQA Chemistry Trilogy Syllabus. A fun and engaging lesson for what can be a dry topic.

A lesson discussing different methods to separate mixtures, before leading students through simple paper chromatography. Follow up activities to the practical are included. A fun lesson with great impact.

Full lesson introducing students to the idea of a simple covalent molecule, before helping students to understand their properties. Exercises using molymods used to make very abstract ideas more concrete. An evaluative exercise is used to promote higher order thinking. Built in reflection at the end of the lesson.

A full lesson on cracking, taking students through the ideas of why cracking is important for supply to meet demand, to the formation and structure of alkenes, and their potential uses.

A KS4 lesson covering the formation of crude oil, as well as the consequences of burning crude oil once formed. A hollistic approach to the topic where students begin to understand the disparity of timings between formation and combustion of crude oil.

Lesson (including practical activity) for the displacement reactions of metals and the reactivity series. Engaging practical activity, and creative opportunity for students to write their own mnemonics.

A fun introductory lesson for students to understand atoms and elements.

A comparative worksheet where students look for advantages and disadvantages for historical models of the atom.

A worksheet to help students to structure a practical around group 7 displacement reactions.

PP. slide for uses of exothermic and endothermic reactions in hot and cold packs.
