Information sheets for a marketplace/information hunt activity on metals, polymers, ceramics and composites. Designed for OCR 21st Century C4 (Material Choices) lesson on Choosing the Right Materials.

Information sheets to be placed around the room to answer questions. I then followed this with the ‘Chase the Elements’ activity available here on TES by another author.

2 worksheet with questions of increasing difficulty on electrolysis half equations. Version 2 has a few trickier questions, including writing half equations from scratch. Answers on P2 of each document.

Students draw the particles in each state and fill in the gaps to describe the properties. Used with a low ability Y8 class.

A worksheet to help students practice identifying independent, dependent and control variables. Includes answers.

A card sort about diamond, graphite, graphene and fullerenes. One slide is scrambled, the other unscrambled to be used as either an answer sheet or an information source.

Revision summary sheet/mat for Electrolysis - created with AQA GCSE Chemistry C6 topic in mind. Including Electrolysis Equipment, Changes at the Electrodes, Predicting Products of Aqueous Solutions, Extraction of Aluminium and Electrolysis of Brine.

Students research the periodic table using laptops (or information sheets) and fill in their sheet, then produce a leaflet on the periodic table and atomic structure. You can easily change the ‘demonstrate’ task at the bottom of the sheet or add another question. Created with OCR 21st Century Science Topic C2 (Chemical Patterns) in mind but would work for other specifications or could be easily adapted. (The preview is cropped but the actual document has borders!)

Calculations worksheet used for AQA Trilogy Energy Changes unit - calculating bond energies. Please note there is no answer sheet included.

Information booklet which gives students guidance on how to: Draw even scales Draw lines/curves of best fit Describe & explain a trend (including identifying strong/weak/positive/negative correlations) Plot range bars Interpolate/extrapolate Calculate gradient Write a linear equation I have these out on the tables every time students are drawing a graph to serve as a ‘self-help’ guide in the first instance. Used with Y7 up to Y11.

Revision mat/summary sheet for C5 Chemical Changes (AQA). Includes questions on reactivity series, metals & acids, extraction of metals, acids & bases, salts (& naming salts), acids & alkalis, neutralisation, dissociation, pH, and strong and weak acids.

This activity includes an information sheet which shows students how to complete dot-cross diagrams, and lots of examples to practice with. Answers in a separate file.

Selection of activities for teaching about the earth’s early atmosphere and how it changed, including a storyboard with answers, cloze activity with answers, and 2 exam-style questions (short questions or a 6-mark) with suggested mark schemes. Covers 4.9.1.2 of AQA GCSE Chemistry (the earth’s early atmosphere).

Revision summary sheet (with answers) for AQA GCSE Chemistry, Chemical Analysis. Covers pure & impure substances, paper chromatography, gas tests and testing for positive + negative ions.

2 worksheets on addition and condensation polymerisation, with answers.

2 differentiated worksheets where students work out the displayed and molecular formula of the first 8 alkanes. Second more difficult sheet also includes working out the empirical formula.

(No answers) Summary sheet on separating and purifying substances. This was created for the Edexcel 9-1 GCSE but could be adapted for other specifications.

Practice questions for the AQA Chemistry calculations topic (relative formula mass, relative atomic mass, moles, reacting masses and limiting reactants)

A worksheet (with answers) I made to give my Y7 class at the end of their Elements topic. Would also work well with AQA( Kerboodle) Activate 1 Matter 1 topic. Includes elements (their names and symbols), elements/compounds/mixtures, pure/impure substances & heating/cooling curves, dissolving/solubility, filtration & distillation, naming compounds & chemical formulae.

Worksheet on halogen displacement reactions and their colour changes.
