A series of 10 lessons to cover the entire AQA trilogy GCSE specification for Triple science, but can easily be used for combined science students. This scheme takes students from atoms, elements and compounds, through mixtures, to then considering the structure of atoms. After this point, students are introduced to the ideas of ions and the structure of the periodic table with reference to subatomic particles. Finally, students then combine all of these ideas to evaluate the reactivity of elements in groups 1, 7 and 0. There are several opportunities for practical skills to be developed, including: Distillation demonstrations Chromatography Group 1 demos Group 7 displacement reactions Formation of ionic compounds to demonstrate predicted electron transfer, e.g. combustion of magnesium. A fun scheme, which has so far proved to promote excellent progress. A full powerpoint is provided, as well as individual lesson powerpoints. All lessons come with powerpoints. Some have activities omitted - how to find these free activities from TES included in notes. Please contact for any queries.

SOW to compliment AQA KS3 Matter scheme. This full series of lessons is fully equip to tackle the scheme in a logical and challenging fashion. Each lesson is presented from a colourful differentiated powerpoint, with activities and thought provoking questions for students. Practicals are regularly included, as well as interactive and independent activities, and each lesson ends with an opportunity for reflection. Students greatly enjoyed covering this unit, and other schools would benefit greatly from these resources.
