This electrolysis resource is great to use as an introduction to electrolysis and then move onto aqueous electrolysis. The blank templates allow teachers to go through several examples of their own choice or they can use the pre-filled questions. There are a variety of differentiated resources to give to students of different abilities. The electrolysis resource includes: Information sheet 1 and 2 (Electrolysis) Worksheet (Electrolysis) Answer sheet (Electrolysis) Blank templates (Electrolysis)

I use this bonding resource as the second lesson in the AQA GCSE Chemistry ‘Structure, bonding, and the properties of matter’ topic in paper 1. The introduction to bonding resource introduces students to the idea of different types of bonds. The unique flow chart is a really useful way of supporting students to deduce the type of bonding in a substance. This resource also includes and introduction to dot and cross diagrams and how they are used to represent different types of bonds. The resource includes: Information sheet (Bonding introduction) Information sheet (Dot and cross diagrams) Worksheet (Bonding introduction) Answer sheet (Bonding introduction)

This resource defines the relative atomic mass of an element and also describes to students how to calculate the relative atomic mass. The resource includes an information sheet and question sheet for practice. The great thing is that students can check their answers against the relative atomic mass displayed on the periodic table. A good resource for GCSE students and a good starter or reminder for A Level students. I use this resource as part of the AQA Chemistry, Quantitative Chemistry topic.

This resource is designed as the second lesson of the AQA GCSE Chemistry, ‘Atomic structure and the periodic table’ topic. The resource contains: Information sheet (Reactions and masses) Information sheet (Balancing equations) Worksheet (Balancing equations) Answer sheet (Balancing equations) The resource is a good introduction to reactions and equations. Further balancing equations worksheets are available in the Quantitative chemistry topic.

This resource is the fifth part of the AQA GCSE Chemistry ‘Atomic structure and the periodic table’ topic in paper 1. I use this resource with my GCSE students and occasionally as a stretch and challenge for KS3 or a reminder for A Level. The atomic structure resource includes: Information sheet (Atomic structure) Worksheet 1 (Atomic structure) Answer sheet 1 (Atomic structure) Worksheet 2 (Atomic structure) The answers to worksheet 2 are the same as the 1.7 electron configuration worksheet.

I use this resource as the sixth lesson of the AQA GCSE Chemistry ‘Atomic structure and the periodic table’ topic in paper 1. For a top set you can achieve everything in one lesson. You may need to spread the isotopes, relative atomic mass, and ions resource over a couple of lessons for mixed or lower ability classes. The relative atomic mass worksheet can also be used with A Level students (OCR Chemistry A). The resource includes: Information sheet (Isotopes) Worksheet (Isotopes) Answer sheet (Isotopes) Information sheet (Relative atomic mass) Worksheet (Relative atomic mass) Information sheet (Ions) Worksheet (Ions) Answer sheet (Ions) Get students to use an A Level periodic table in order to check their answers to the relative atomic mass worksheet.

This resource contains revision material for the AQA GCSE Chemistry ‘Atomic structure and the periodic table’ topic in paper 1. The resource includes 6 mark question examples and word search game with crossword style clues.

Redox is the sixth lessonin a series of lessons from the AQA GCSE Chemistry ‘Chemical changes’ topic. The redox resource outlines the different definitions for oxidation and reduction. The worksheet then gives opportunities to identify redox in reactions. The redox resource includes: Information sheet (Redox) Worksheet (Redox) Answer sheet (Redox)

This extraction of aluminium resource is part of the AQA GCSE Chemistry ‘Chemical changes’ topic in paper 1. The resources are differentiated to help both the low ability and stretch the more able. The extraction of aluminium resource includes: Information sheet (Extraction of aluminium) Worksheet (Extraction of aluminium - 3 differentiations) Answer sheet (Extraction of aluminium)

I use this reduction by carbon lesson as part of the AQA GCSE Chemistry ‘Chemical chnages’ topic. Having introduce redox previously during acid and base reactions students can then apply the same redox principles in other scenarios. The reduction by carbon resource includes: Information sheet (Reduction by carbon) Worksheet (Reduction by carbon) Answer sheet (Reduction by carbon)

This resource contains an information sheet on relative formula mass, a question sheet and an associated answer sheet. GCSE students need to be able to calculate relative formula mass as part of the Quantitative Chemistry topic in paper 1. Students can file the resource or use it to help them answer the questions. A great resource for GCSE but also a good starter or reminder for A Level students too.

This resource is a series of periodic tables at different stages of completion. Challenge your students by setting a time limit to complete the periodic table or simply use it as a memory retrieval technique. One of the periodic tables is completed and can be distributed as a resource to students.

The ions information sheet explains how ions are formed to students and how to draw ions. The accompanying ions worksheet and answer sheet challenges students to deduce the electron configuration of ions and draw their structures. The common ions resource lists ions that are useful for students when learning about ionic bonding and electrolysis. This resource is useful for students to have as a reference in their folders or exercise books. Please note that students in the UK will not be able to take this resource into any public exams.

I use this burning hydrocarbons resource as part of the AQA GCSE Chemistry ‘Organic chemistry’ topic in paper 2. The resource includes information sheets and differentiated work sheets to help students understand the products of the combustion of hydrocarbons. This resource includes: 1 x Information sheet 2 x Differentiated Worksheets Answer sheets

This is a great revision resource or starter activity for the AQA GCSE Chemistry ‘Structure, bonding, and the properties of matter’ topic in paper 1. The resource includes the question sheet and answer sheet.

This is a great chemistry and literacy game. Students learn the element symbols whilst also spelling words. It is best to use a combination of GCSE and A Level chemistry periodic tables so that students have the full scope of elements available to them. I use this resource with KS3, KS4 and KS5 as a starter and sometimes as a gap filler. Students really enjoy trying to find complex words and seeing how many individual element symbols they can use in a word. The resource comes with a question sheet, some example answers and a list of over 450 words that can be found in the periodic table. Questions cover different categories like foods, cars, countries, cities, football teams, and even Marvel characters.

This explaining trends 6 mark exam question is a great resource to assess students understanding of the atomic structure and the periodic table topic as part of the AQA GCSE Chemistry course. I use it as part of the AQA GCSE Chemistry revision for paper 1 or at the end of the 1.11 Explaing trends lesson. Sometimes I use it as a starter with my A Level students (OCR Chemistry A). The resource is a common AQA exam question.

This resource includes two 6 mark questions and corresponding answer sheets on the periodic table. These 6 mark exam questions are examples of longer answer questions from previous AQA GCSE Chemistry exams. I use this resource with my GCSE classes as a plenary or memory retrieval starter. I also use it sometimes with KS3 classes to extend the more able. These 6 mark questions are great to be used as a synoptic revision tool as they link in with many other concepts from the course.
