Step by Step checklist on how to balance any symbol equation. To support this checklist there is a worked example document with two examples of balancing equations using the steps from the checklist. Perfect for teaching KS3-KS5
Students take pride when they are given a responsible duty in the classroom (plus it also helps to reduce teacher workload!). Use the classroom duty list to select students every half term for the following roles
writing book monitor
textbook/ worksheet monitor
equipment monitor.
There is also space to add substitutes in case students are absent
Help students keep their workbooks to a high quality with this book quality checklist that students can stick in the inside cover, back cover or first page of their work books or it can be used as a classroom display. Please amend as necessary
Creating a safe learning environment is important during pracitical activities. This Practical Routine is great for practical based subjects such as science, food tech, design techology and art. These rules can be delivered during a practical lesson or it can be used as displays in your classroom
These target stickers enables teachers and students to track their progress in science or other subjects on a weekly or biweekly bias. These stickers should be stuck in students’ books so they can take responsibility of their own learning and work progress. Teachers can easily see which students are not meeting targets and therefore requires intervention strategies

To use the particle model to explain the different states of matter and differences in density
To calculate density, mass or volume using the density equation
The teacher will be able to check students have met these learning objectives through mini AfL tasks for students to complete
