A variety of Chemistry assignments for the New BTEC First Specification. Feel free to use and adapt these assignments. They were originally written for an all boys comprehensive school but should be robust enough to meet the new criteria.

SMART notebook presentation, with a variety of activities covering burning, acids and alkalis, reversible and irreversible reactions and many more.

IWB presentation with a variety of activities linked with particle theory, solids, liquids and gases and changes of state.

IWB presentation for Rocks lessons. Contains a mixture of activities. Feel free to edit/change as you wish.

Simple, elements, compounds and atoms crossword which I used as a starter with a lower ability year 8 group.

each pupil was given an element from 1-20. They had to work out the electron structure of that particular element and make a poster using the templates provided. Part of the activity is the pupils choosing which template to use, depending on the number of electron shells their element has. Perfect for lower ability groups.

Made this to accompany the fusion 2 scheme of work. It relates to the first 6 lessons. From describing, elements, compounds, naming compounds and symbols. Used this with a lower ability science group in year 8. Could easily be adapted for years 7 and 9 also.

Planning sheet to be printed on A3 paper, you then walk through each question using the Powerpoint, students make simple notes and then attempt to answer each question. This is to be used with the C2 Edexcel Specimen Paper available on the Edexcel website.

Full lesson which outlines what reversible reactions are, what happens when we change the temperature and pressure of these reactions. Lesson also includes details of the Haber Process and involves the completion of a 6 mark question about the Haber Process. Excellent lesson ready to pick up and teach.

A-Level/GCSE Chemistry resource used to teach the concept of the Mole to Year 12 Chemistry students and will help to support GCSE Chemistry students. Lesson is ready to teach straight out the box. Lesson contains mole calculations, examples and sample exam questions. The lesson then goes on to explain how to calculate reacting masses from balanced equations using. Mole calculations are broken down and answers to questions are included in the powerpoint. Great for revising moles with Year 11 or recapping with Year 12 Chemistry students.

Full/complete ready to teach lesson about Esters. Lesson outlines how esters are formed, naming of esters. Structure of esters, word and symbol equations. Also included simple practical activity in which students can make a variety of esters. Lesson also involves use of molly mod kits. Could be used as a double or single lesson. Ideal for C3 Edexcel exam board but will fit with any exam board in which Esters are covered.

2 worksheets created for a lower ability Year 8 class. Perfect for a starter activity, students can match up the pictures to the description and name of the resource. This could be completed on the interactive white board or printed and given to students as a short starter activity. Non-renewable and renewable energy resources covered.

Full lesson outlining Gas Volume calculations, ready to pick up and teach. Includes colour coded differentiated calculation questions. Exam questions for edexcel C3 also included with markscheme.

OCR Chemistry A -Shapes of Molecules and Intermolecular forces Covers Shapes of Molecules and Ions To construct simple electron dot and cross diagrams to describe the electron arrangements in ions and covalent and dative bonds Bonding in simple molecular structure types – typical physical properties (MP, solubility in water, electricity conductivity) Use electron pair repulsion principle to predict, explain and name the shapes of simple molecules such as BeCl2, BF3, CH4, NH3, H2O and SF6 as well as ions such as NH4+

Ready to teach A-Level Chemistry lesson. Designed for the OCR B Chemistry A-Level Specification. Covers atomic number, mass number, istope, relative atomic mass, history of the different models of the atoms and various calculations. Also covers how to interpret mass spectra to calculate relative atomic mass and how mass spectrometry works. Also includes exam questions and mark schemes. Would also suit other A-Level Chemistry specification.

A-Level Chemistry A - Acids and Redox Acids, Bases and Neutralisations Full teachable A-Level Chemistry lesson covering: Acids and Bases and Neutralisations Short lesson, will cover the basics of acids, bases and neutralisations. Suitable for 40-50 minute lesson.

Exam booklet containing questions that only relate to the June 2022 AQA GCSE Chemistry exam. Advanced notice material has been used to make the booklet of questions. Ideal for exam preparation in the build up to the exam.

Very simple summary powerpoint containing hand drawn curly arrow mechanisms covering the 4 main reaction mechanisms: Electrophilic addition, electrophilic substitution, nucleophilic addition, nucleophilic substitution. Blank template for students to complete. Designed for OCR A A -Level Chemistry but will apply for most exam boards AQA and OCR B

Ready to use! Straight out of the box, no printing of resources needed. Lesson relates to AQA Chemistry/Trilogy 9-1 Specification. Lesson contains a simple but interactive True or False starter. Clear definitions of pure substances, mixtures, formulation. Lesson also builds into discussion of heating curves, melting points, boiling points and how these relate to state of matter. Also contains example exam question and plenary at end. Could be incorporated into a practical lesson relating to heating curves. I used this as a theory lesson with middle ability Year 11 students. Enjoy. Feedback welcome.

A-Level Chemistry lesson that explains how to write redox equations using half equations and from oxidation numbers. Examples given, hand written on the powerpoint and exam question pack for students to complete. Originally made for OCR A Chemistry but suitable for all post 16 Chemistry exam boards.
