This resource is good value as it has technician lists, practical instructions, background material and worksheets for 5 lessons/activities on acids and alkalis. It is very suitable for new teachers or teachers teaching out of subject area who may like some new ideas/resources. It fits the new KS3 science section on the pH scale and neutralisation.

This is a whole-lesson resource. Most diffusion practicals involve observation only - this resource asks students to measure and calculate. Further it has a set of results, obtained by real Year 7 students and a graph of their results. This is so all students have a standard set of results to compare their own results with and a standard set to interpret, so you can check their understanding. This resource also challenges students to use their knowledge of particles to help them analyse the results of comparing two different concentrations of acid.

3 homeworks on different topics with differentiation for KS3. Great for new teachers or busy teachers as they come with answers to questions that can be displayed as a power point for peer-assessment or self-marking.

This practical protocol is different to the usual set-up and gives results in 30 min. It is easy for students to do and the results are very clear. Written for AQA GCSE Chemistry, but suitable for other exam boards. Techs like it as it’s not so messy. This resource contains actual results for students to interpret as well as the protocol. The resource covers, corrosion, rusting and the chemical equation, methods to prevent rusting and why and how this happens. There is a power point, worksheet, teacher and technician notes. Enough material here for a full lesson and possibly a homework too depending on your class.
