AQA C15.1 Corrosion and Its Prevention
Full lesson following the new 9-1 AQA Chemistry Specification.
Corrosion and Its Prevention, C15.1.
Covers learning aims: Explain the process of corrosion, issues with corrosion and methods of prevention.
I used this lesson with a class of mixed ability working at grades 4-7. There is extensive structuring and it is designed for short chunked sections.
There is a challenge task that can be used more heavily to take it up to the very top grades on this topic.
Hope this is useful. All questions and activities are within the powerpoint.
