These lesson PowerPoints (with suggested practical task) will allow you to deliver two lessons to a broad range of abilities. Lesson 1 introduces the reactivity series of metals, sets up a simple experiment and then focuses on balancing chemical equations. Lesson 2 builds upon these skills by looking at the reactions of metals with oxygen, water and acids.

An ideal home learning resource; these revision cards cover all the “learnable” Chemistry Paper 1 content.
The cards come as an editable PowerPoint, with six cards per slide for students to cut out. There are eight slides (48 cards) for Combined students and ten slides (58 cards) for Triple students. The cards that are Higher only are indicated, so Foundation students can discard these.
As students memorise the content of each card, they should be able to recall the information when prompted by a revision partner. As information becomes embedded, cards can be removed so the pile focuses on a smaller number of trickier concepts.
Please note: these cards are designed to supplement NOT substitute for other revision. If all the material on these cards is memorised, it will give students a solid platform from which to achieve a very good grade. However, these cards are not sufficient to fully prepare students for the chemical calculations topics (only practice can prepare for this) or the technical aspects of the Core Practicals (practical experience is needed for this)
