A short scheme of work that looks at the period table and then makes some materials like pykrete (concrete that is made of ice) and then some plastic (from milk). A great way to expand and make links to real world.

Additional Chemistry AQA - Rate of Reaction Keyword and definition bingo.
This contains a set of questions and a pack of pre-made cards. This can be used as a starter, plenary or revision activity.
This covers all of the key concepts in the unit. Other bingo games are available for the other units too.
Students have their own bingo cards and then the slides gone through with different questions. Students can be awarded for a row or a full house.
Topics covered: alkanes, alkenes, fractional distillation, cracking, atmosphere, atomic structure, limetsone and more.
This booklet supports a series of lesson and is designed for Entry Level/SEND students to allow them to access the key elements of science. If used in a mixed ability class, these booklets allow students to keep pace with the rest of the class whilst personalising the challenge and support they require.
The booklet is part of a series of booklets with a variety of tasks including matching keywords and definition, scaffolding, extended answers, research and a lot of practical work with matching results tables/graphs.
Some of the diagrams have had to be removed for copyright.
A great task that can be used as an assessment tool for a starter, mini-plenary or revision task.
This works best when students have pre-made cards to select answer, voting kits or white boards. Students can also complete as a quiz in the back of their books.
Covers: rate of reaction, electrolysis, ions, salts, neutralisation,
15 Homework Sheets.
Each sheet has three questions for students to complete. These are designed around Higher Order Thinking. They begin with identify and move to describe and finally an explain question.
These follow the AQA additional unit.
They are available for Biology, Chemistry and Physics units.

The idea works that students should know the core building blocks around the edge of the page. The task therefore is to summarise these key points in the middle, only focusing on the things they have forgotten:
The final task is to get this all on to a postcard - their revision notes to take away! This makes it all manageable for the student.
Topics covered:
atomic structure, isotopes, ions, electrolysis, relative atomic mass, percentage mass, yield, neutralisation
Prediction Paper - GCSE Additional - Foundation - 2016
This paper consists of new questions that have been designed around previous examinations.
These assessments are produced after mapping questions from previous years.
This includes a mark scheme.
Great for revision and discussion.

Additional Chemistry AQA - Keyword and definition bingo.
This contains a set of questions and a pack of pre-made cards. This can be used as a starter, plenary or revision activity.
This covers all of the key concepts in the unit. Other bingo games are available for the other units too.
A set of 5 different games of thoughts and crosses that can be used as a starter, plenary and/or revision task.
This works best when students work in pairs. The task is that the students have to compete to get three in a row. Which ever way they decide to try and get three in a row the questions include a range of difficulty - there is no easy pathway!
These sheets cover all of the main areas from the additional science unit. There are versions available for Biology, Chemistry and Physics.
