Predominately a Chemistry teacher, although I dabble with Biology and Physics too. Most of my schemes of work were planned for either AQA or iGCSE schemes of work at KS4 and the IB at KS5 (although I have no official affiliation with the IB)

These three 2 week KS3 scheme of work were designed to take 4x100 minute lessons each. The aim of the projects were to guide students to research, test, ´market´ and evaluate their own product. These products were a fertiliser, a chemical hand-warmer and a mobile phone chargers.
The lessons are broken down as follows:
Lesson 1 - Research and Planning
Lesson 2 - Testing options
Lesson 3 - Product Design
Lesson 4 - Pitching the design to peers and evaluation
Originally designed to link Science with Business and Enterprise, they could also be used to encourage the use of transferable skills in science, and would make independent and interactive ´end of year´ activities.

Teacher instructions for running a quick and fun activity for global warming - involves throwing plastic balls around the room, so safety warnings and clear instructions are advisable!
