A handy planner page that has the number of lesson in each kerboodle unit including required practicals.

Tick list for all lessons included in the kerboodle scheme including required practicals and our assessment elements. So handy to have in your planner! Included: Planner page for KS4 foundation tier Planner Page for KS4 higher tier

This resource contains all lesson within the activate scheme of work for year 7 and 8. I use this as a tick list and includes all the assessment elements we complete after each topic. So handy to have in your planner!

Power Points summarising key information for each paper one. Clearly identifies higher content. Ideal for the few lessons before the exam. Paper one content available on my resources.

A very cut down version condensing content into manageable chunks. Ideal for pupils who struggle to revise or those who need small amounts of information to process.

A work sheet looking at the arrangement of giant ionic structures and how structure links to properties. Silver and Gold worksheets.

Introduction to interpreting and making molecular formula. Used for KS3 or introduction to GCSE. Differentiated in to bronze silver and gold sheets. Really useful resource - please review :)

This is a unit (4 lessons) for filling the AQA required practical although can be easily used for other specifications. The method used are the recommended practical methods published by AQA. The lessons are as follows: 1) Chromotography of M&M dye 2) Chromatography and calculating Rf values This has been designed as part of a year 9 scheme of work which have been fully undated to cover the new AQA specification, change in assessment objective weightings and mathematical requirements. Please leave a review of these resources.

Resources developed as part of a *BIG PRACTICAL*. These are designed to practice a skill - usually using a preliminary investigation - then a full investigation write up. These are tailored toward the way the new GCSE (2016 on wards) is designed to test practical skills as well as context. First lesson Resources: The pH Scale (+ppt) Practical: Test pH of everyday substances Activities order: Starter looking at the pH scale and then practical, pupils then plot the position of the substances and then questions on strength of different substances. Second Resources: Neutralisation -- Titration (+ppt) Practical: Basic titration like practical using measuring cylinders Activities order: Introduction the meaning of the term 'neutral'. Re-cap of pH from previous lesson. Practical. Word equations looking at the formation of salts. Third Resources: Making-Salts-Prac (+ppt) Practical: Forming sodium chloride salt and evaporating to form crystals Activities order: Re-cap word equations. Practical and write up and use of heating equipment specifically looking at the importance of evaporation and mixing as processes involved in the method.

These are tailored toward the way the new GCSE (2016 on wards) is designed to test practical skills as well as context. First lesson Resources: Reduction-Reactions (+ppt) Practical: Pupils complete a practical looking at the reduction of iron in iron oxide using carbon on a match. Activities order: Starter looking at the reactivity series and the order of metals. First section looks at those found in their natural state and not in compounds. Then move on to look at those above hydrogen and below carbon using practical. Second Resources: Electrolysis (+ppt) Practical: Electrolysis of copper sulphate solution - simplistic Activities order: Introduction the meaning of the term 'lysis' and linking it to electrolysis. How ores are processed to get compounds ready for electrolysis. Electrolysis of sodium chloride and aluminium oxide as examples.

Pupils choose from a list of suitable technical materials to design certain aspects of a rally car or hair straighteners. Many components could have multiple materials used. Challenge task of looking at the impact of changing material to an alternative.

Covers Hydrocarbons, fractional distillation, cracking, polymerisation, and the two methods of ethanol production and how they link together - often higher level questions.

These are tailored toward the way the new GCSE (2016 on wards) is designed to test practical skills as well as context. First lesson Resources: Practical-investigation-writing-frame (+ppt) Practical: Calcium carbonate and hydrochloric acid - details on ppt Activities order: Starter looking at the mass of a cake, look at recognising balancing equations, complete practical and planning part of the practical write up. Second lesson Resources: ppt Practical: NA Activities order: Line graph and pathway graded conclusion (the pathways will be different depending on what your school is using)

These are tailored toward the way the new GCSE (2016 on wards) is designed to test practical skills as well as context. First lesson Resources: Rate-of-reaction-practical (+ppt) Practical: Pupils complete a preliminary testing three concentrations of HCl on calcium carbonate and collect gas using inverted measuring cylinders. Activity order: Intro, demo, should be able to complete preliminary practical and write up to preliminary conclusion. Second/Third lesson Resources: Rate-of-reaction-practical (+ppt) Practical: Pupils complete a full practical testing three concentrations of HCl on calcium carbonate and collect gas using inverted measuring cylinders. Complete repeats and exclude outliers to calculate mean. Activity order: Make any changes to the method necessary from previous prac (e.g. my pupils decided they were going to use larger measuring cylinders). Complete prac and write up.

Basics looking at the equations for combustion and comparing them. Practical based on using a Bunsen Burner to heat water, air hole open and closed. Practical details are on the ppt. Sheet then looking at the evidence and observations of the two types of combustion (Differentiated in to bronze, silver and gold). Application looking at a car. Challenge task looking at the impacts of carbon monoxide.

Activity comparing mice exposed and not exposed to diesel fumes. Mainly looking at unknown impacts of nano particles. Graph is a challenging graph to read and deduce result from. Asks challenging questions about conclusive proof and if this proves that there is a link between the findings and mice and humans. Differentiated bronze, silver and gold.

Activity comparing bacterial growth using normal plasters and those using nano particles. Describing graphs, explaining whether the graph has enough evidence to support a conclusion and experimental design. Differentiated bronze, silver ad gold.
