Main 1: Show pupils how to draw the structure of the Earth. Pupils produce a version in their books. Main 2: Question pupils about the states of the layers and how they know this. AFL: 4 Mark Question: Describe the Earth’s layers explain with examples how they're properties are based on their state. With a WAGOLL (examples of medium and higher answers are in the ppt). Homework: Possibly ask pupils to produce a 3d model of their diagram.

Learning Objectives Investigate how speed of cooling affects the crystal size of minerals. Link the properties of igneous rocks with where they cooled. Use particle diagrams to explain the difference between intrusive and extrusive Settler: Revision of intrusive and extrusive from previous lesson. Starter: Pupil write their own hypothesis for the practical – discuss what makes a good hypothesis. Fter pupils have done theirs they can asses themselves based on the WAGOLL in the ppt. Demonstration: Practical:/ Main 1: Pupils carry out the salol/lead iodide or stearic acid cooling practical. Main 2: Pupils write an analysis for this experiment, using the mark scheme. Pupils can then peer assess using the markscheme and the WAGOLL. AFL: Ask pupils at the end how giants causeway was made and importantly where? Photographs in ppt.

A collection of resources to help with teaching AQA C2.6 Acids, bases and salts. Includes card sorts ready made in small and large - print these on coloured card and laminate for the best effect. Includes keyword glossary sheet - this can be given to pupils at the start of a topic or made available during revision as atopic specific resource. Includes mini test for a starter to judge prior knowledge, or used as a summative activity at the end of the lesson. Includes: AQA C2.6.1 Making salts AQA C2.6.2 Acids and bases

Teach pupils how to draw the different lines of best fit using this simple worksheet.

For every topic in C1 there is a small (under 5 mins) starter or plenary quiz, includes multiple choice answers to enable all pupils to access the content.

A set of 10 lessons for teaching particles to year 6 or 7. All key behaviours explained with lots of practicals. Powerpoints including with key questions. Covers: Particles Particle model Changing state Gases Water Mixtures Filtering and evaporation Chromatography Distillation

I can never seem to find the right periodic table for my students so have made one ideal for KS3/4. Relative atomic mass is only measured to 1d.p. for elements such as Chlorine. Lanthinoids and Actinoides are ignored. Elements are not given capital letters. UK spelling. Relative atomic mass is shown above the chemical symbol. Includes livermorium and flerovium, moscovium etc. Colour coded groups. Groups 1-8 labelled.

The popular word game: now as a starter in your classroom. Use this as a starter on the whiteboard or as a competition between your classes through the half term. This is my bell task for all sets with a prize at the end of term for the set with the highest total score. Interactive, all pupils want to take part, good as a literacy and numeracy (calculating the scores) starter. Applicable to all subjects not just science. Includes printable tiles (I laminate mine and have sticky magnets on the back so they can work on my magnetic whiteboard). Powerpoint and PDF version included, keynote version on the jump link for OS X users - this works especially well. mrmortonscience

All the modern hazard symbols covered by the curriculum gathered into one place. Images should be large enough for printing for displays. Check out my other resources for power points and worksheets related to these hazard symbols. display, safety, practical

Pupils work in groups to solve the challenge, use their own knowledge and that given in the resource to write a report to a construction company on which rocks they should use for different construction tasks. Print out all the pages and a set to groups of 3-4 pupils. 20 minutes to read the information, read the example report and to write their own. Lower ability groups will copy out the example with the correct rocks added in and the higher ability groups will write their own report from scratch. Rocks, slate, limestone, metamorphic, fossils, marble, construction, uses of rocks

Periodic Table Dice Game A great little game for groups to practice their periodic table knowledge, pupils are encouraged to test their knowledge but have the periodic tables as a safety blanket to ensure all abilities can compete and SHOW PROGRESS. REQUIRES 1xD6 and 1xD20 per group Includes: Player markers Questions Scoreboard Mini periodic tables
