Here's a resource for ks3 and ks4 on the topic of Recycling. The 23 slides cover the theory and contain tasks, prompts for class discussions, and activities for pupils. There are 2 case studies at the end where pupils have to do some calculations related to recycling. I've also included my own lesson plan / notes that I wrote in preparation for teaching this lesson. Enjoy!

Here's a resource to: Describe the properties of metals. Explain why metals are malleable. Explain why metals conduct electricity. Enjoy!

This resource is useful for pupils learning changing states in ks4. Here's the structure of the lesson: 1. Particle models for solid, liquid, gas 2. State changes 3. Metallic / ionic / covalent bonds 4. Melting points 5. Multiple choice short quiz Enjoy!

Here's a complete lesson (could be a double lesson if you carry out the practical explained in the powerpoint) for pupils (ks3 or ks4) to learn about metals and acids reactions. The presentation covers theory and contains tasks and prompts for class discussions. There is also a practical activity, with expected results recorded in the powerpoint. Enjoy!
