Never miss a practical again with this AQA Combined Science Required Practical Checklist!
Inside you’ll find a 5 page checklist which covers:
Required practicals separated by subject and then by topic
The specification descriptors of each required practical
Complete list of topics for each subject that DO NOT contain a required practical
2 pages of ‘other’ practicals and demonstrations that are not technically required but the exam board could ask you about anyway!
This revision mat covers the AQA combined science Specific Heat Capacity and Specific Latent Heat calculations and was designed for use in end of year revision for year 10 students but could easily be used for higher ability year 9s.
POINTS PURSUIT is a gamified revision strategy that can be integrated with any rewards system of your choosing and is a nice way to increase competition. Questions start off as low demand at the top and then progressively increase in difficulty as students move down the sheet - please note that I have used this with higher ability classes and many students have started at the bottom to gain the most points and then worked their way up the sheet as an effective strategy.
I usually complete a sheet under a visualiser and have students swap sheets and coloured pens then follow along to reduce my marking :)
This is a revision mat for AQA Combined Science Paper 1.
Specifically looking at the Making Salts Required Practical within the topic Chemical Changes.
This is a revision mat for AQA Combined Science Paper 2.
Specifically looking at Water within the topic Using Resources.
This style of revision clock can be easily adapted to suit the needs of your class as this is an editable resource. Each segment can be assigned a time frame for your students to answer the questions and complete the clock.

Specifically looking at Energy Resources within the topic Energy.
This activity would work well as an information hunt and includes the appropriate PowerPoint slides which can be inserted into your own slide show or printed for students to move around the room and help them complete the activity sheet.
This resource has been designed as a puzzle for students to practice naming compounds and is ideal for a group or individual task.
Print one sheet per A4 page (one sided) and cut out the squares. Shuffle the squares and have students match the sides of the squares until all 15 cards have been used. There is more than one way to complete this puzzle.
High ability students should be able to use all 15 cards.
For lower ability students, remove the 2 end columns indicated on the sheet so that they complete the puzzle with 9 cards. A good extension would then be to challenge students to fill in the missing halves remaining at the ends of the puzzle.
