AQA 9-1 GCSE Chemistry - Required Practicals - Practical 4 - Temperature Changes

Required practicals will replace controlled assessment in the new GCSE. These record and worksheets are much more than a method. They are designed to track students performance towards achieving their apparatus and skills and provide information to help them understand the background chemistry which is key to understanding an experiment and not just completing it. All the sheets can be bound together in-house into a Required Practicals workbook/log book, or you could hand the sheets out separately. Practical work may be assessed through the terminal examinations - be sure that your students haven’t just done the practicals but understand them fully! AQA states: Practical work is at the heart of science – that’s why we have placed it at the heart of each of our GCSE science specifications. By carrying out carefully considered practical work, students will enhance their investigative thinking, improve their mastery of techniques and consolidate their understanding of key scientific concepts. Professor Bunsen resources are tested in school and make the new GCSE in chemistry engaging and exciting. Most importantly it could save you and your school time and support your students to understand the practical work in greater depth.

AQA GCSE chemistry - Unit 5 - Lesson 2 Energy Profiles for Exothermic and Endothermic Reactions

(0)
Powerpoint lesson linked to workbook for the lesson with spaces for students to write answers, example examination questions and a mark scheme for the workbook. Save time by avoiding the need for your students to write out lengthy sets of notes or draw diagrams. The work book includes spaces for marking and feedback including checked by teacher and verbal feedback given. Also leaves space to stick in improvement work or complete on the page. Could substitute for class books providing evidence for progress over time linked to success criteria. Success criteria covered in this lesson are: I can draw simple reaction profiles for exothermic and endothermic reactions to show their relative energies. I can annotate the reaction profiles to show the activation energy and overall energy change I can explain whether a reaction is exothermic or endothermic using reaction profiles I can explain that activation energy is the minimum energy required for a reaction to occur. I write Professor Bunsen resources to teach and test in my own classroom and try to make the resources compatible with a lot of the ways in which we are currently being asked to teach science including feedback and improvements and redrafting. The new specifications are intensive on time, and I am testing out moving towards workbooks and away from ordinary class books. These could be differentiated towards your own students. I hope that I manage to make the new GCSE in chemistry engaging and exciting. Most importantly it could save you and your school time!
