GCSE Chemistry COMPLETE Outline & Equipment List: Year 10 + 11 Edexcel 9-1 Combined & Triple Science

(2)
This provides an overview of all lessons needed to complete the Edexcel 9-1 Combined Science and Chemistry (Triple Science) courses. The document outlines what to teach in each lesson (sufficient to fully cover the new specification) and lists equipment for practical lessons wherever needed. Importantly, this document highlights which lessons are Higher Tier only and which are Triple Science only (many schools struggle to grasp this fully). I have found this order of teaching to be effective for gradually building skills and knowledge across two years. Moreover, it nicely breaks up the theory and practical-based topics. Please leave a brief review if you find this overview useful - thanks! BTW, all of these lessons have PowerPoints that can be purchased from my shop and the worksheets are generally available for free (unless copyright protected). Almost all of my lessons are also available in discounted bundles, just browse my shop - OnSpecScience.

Full Lesson PowerPoint sufficient to teach the GCSE 9-1 specification Chemistry lesson on Dynamic Equilibrium. The resource is easy to follow for teachers and readily accessible for students. For Combined Science, Foundation students only need to cover the first two objectives; Higher tier candidates also need to learn about factors affecting the position of the equilibrium. Triple Science students also need to do the follow-up lesson (SC15b) on Factors affecting Equilibria. A clearer version of the worksheet can be downloaded from my shop in needed.

Electroplating & Copper Purification GCSE Lesson (CC10a SC13c)

(1)
This PowerPoint (containing a worksheet) will allow you to teach the GCSE 9-1 specification Chemistry lesson on Electroplating (Triple Science Only). It also contains slides that provide essential background for the Core Practical involving Electrolysis of Copper Sulphate (CC10a). The Core Practical prep can be taught separately but I find it fits better alongside electroplating for Triple Science classes. **Be aware: this lesson works best if you have access to Edexcel GCSE 9-1 Chemistry textbooks. It’s not essential; other resources can be used and all information needed for students to complete the worksheets is found in the slides. However, if textbooks are available, the worksheet can be completed as an independent learning task. ** Other GCSE lessons (including other lessons on Electrolysis) are available from my shop. They can be purchased individually or, alongside this lesson, as part of a whole-topic bundle.
