This lesson builds students up to naming compounds made from non-metals and metals, which end in-ide and then moves on to naming compounds which contain a non-metal, metal and oxygen which end in -ate. This worked well for a low ability year 11 class, but scaffolding could be taken out to provide more challenge. A worksheet is included and can be differentiated accordingly to test the understanding of different learners,

This resource includes 4 powerpoint based lessons with worksheets integrated into the powerpoint so you can print them off easily. I have created it based on the new national curriculum framework which appears to be bringing a lot of content down from the KS4 curriculum. This is followed by a fifth assessment based lesson where students complete a level assessed task. Each powerpoint contains footnotes to explain what should be done if it is not obvious. Each powerpoint is planned to take between 50 and 60 minutes and includes plenty of student lead learning and many opportunities for assessing student learning throughout the lessons. Thank you for looking.

Entire KS3 scheme of work with level assessed task and end of unit test with markscheme and levels. Created around the new KS3 national curriculum framework it encompasses powerpoint based lessons and associated worksheets, homework and assessments Each lesson includes a requisition list for lab techs and where it is not obvious foot notes have been created. Each lesson has been planned to last between 50-60 minutes and includes differentiated outcomes and activities I taught this to my year 7s and it worked really well but also allowed me to make a few tweaks that you can now benefit from. All in all it took me about 25hours to create during my summer holidays so save yourself some time and grab yourself a bargain! Lesson 1 - Introduction to acids and alkalis - practical identifying everyday acids and alkalis with blue and red litmus paper Lesson 2 - Finding out how strong acids and alkalis are - practical using universal indicator Lesson 3 - Neutralisation reactions - class demo of mixing acids and alkalis with universal indicator Lesson 4 - Investigating which neutralises more acid - own brand or branded indigestion tablets Lesson 5 - Introduction to chromatograpy - practical Lesson 6 - Conservation of mass - dissolving salt in water practical Lesson 7 - Separating salt from rock salt practical through filtration Lesson 8 - Separating salt from water practical through evaporation Lesson 9 - Level assessed task on dissolving Lesson 10 - End of topic test with markscheme

This lesson teaches students to first calculate moles of a substance from Ar and mass in grams, it then leads on to calculations of moles from Mr and then from concentrations in mol/dm. It then differentiates for students who understand it quickly and are set independent work (worksheets provided) and another teacher focus group with a more scaffolded worksheet.

This group of powerpoints covers the Edexcel (9-1) specification for the electrolytic processes and covers all of the outcomes covered in the spec for this topic. N.B Many of the lessons include built in worksheets that can easily be printed off. Grab yourself a bargain and save yourself loads of time. Thanks for looking Jon

This lesson covers the changing models of the atom up until todays structure with the nucleus containing neutrons and protons and surrounded by shells containing electrons.

This lesson encourages students to come up with ideas about why salt is placed on icy roads. This get students thinking of a concrete example of how pure and impure substances differ. To reinforce this concept further, students conduct a simple practical where they measure the temperature of melting ice with and without salt. All worksheets are included within the powerpoint. Save yourself some time and grab a bargain.

In this lesson students apply their knowledge of calculating empirical formula by reacting known masses of magnesium with unknown masses of oxygen to make a known mass of magnesium oxide which they can then use along with relative atomic masses to calculate the ratio of oxygen to magnesium and in turn the empirical formula of magnesium oxide.

This assembly grabs the students attention with the first slide asking them to vote whether or not school should start at 10am instead of 8.50. The assembly goes on to look at the arguments for and against and the current research that is going on in the uk at the moment with 100 test school. I went on to tell them that unfortunately we haven't been selected for the trial but its findings could impact us. I then went on to say that until then they should take note of the sleep scientists top tips for a good night sleep which includes the science of blue light from mobile phone screens and its effect on the sleep hormone melatonin. This powerpoint lasts around 15minutes. Enjoy.

Lesson 1 is based around flame tests for various cations Lesson 2 is based around precipitation reactions for various anions Each lesson was created for a triple science top set class and lasted an our each. Each has regular learning checks and opportunities for independent work. Save yourself some time and hassle and grab yourself a bargain.

Lesson 1 focuses on a practical testing various cations apart from ammonium ions Lesson 2 focuses on a practical testing a variety of fertilisers to see if they contain ammonium ions All worksheets and notes for technicians are provided. Save yourself some time and grab a bargain.

In this lesson students are given a range of cards with select information about different elements, just as Mendeleev had. They are then set the task of arranging the cards in anyway they see fit. They then look at how Mendeleev arranged them and used them to make predictions about missing elements which the students then do. The lesson concludes with a six mark question on how the periodic table is arranged. Save yourself some time and grab a bargain.

This lesson encourages students to question different aspects of the periodic table such as groups and periods and investigate patterns in properties of elements. All worksheets provided within power point except a periodic table which can easily be sourced online. Save yourself some time and grab a bargain.

This lesson is intended for GCSE students at looks at what the atomic number and atomic mass tell us about the atom. It also looks at the idea of isotopes.

This is an introductory lesson to the concept of conservation of mass where students investigate what happens to the mass of water when salt is added to it. They then have to try and explain why the mass goes up despite not being able to see the salt anymore. Self contained lesson that really got the students engaged. Save yourself some time and grab a bargain.

This lesson revolves around a practical where students have to experimentally determine which site of salt production presents the best yield of salt. Students then use their results to calculate the concentration in g/dm. This is then built on in the following lesson to calculate mol/dm. Save yourself some time and grab a bargain.

This lesson encourages students to start thinking about continuous and discontinuous data with lots of concrete examples. They plot a human bar graph of favourite colours and then carry out a small experiment investigating how the volume of vinegar added to baking soda alters the amount of foam produced. This easily lasts a double lesson (100minutes) and is a really fun way to get students engaged with graphs. Save yourself some time and grab a bargain.

This is an introductory lesson where students use their prior knowledge of atomic mass (Protons and neutrons) to create their own definition for an isotope. They are then guided on how to calculate relative atomic masses from relative abundances of isotopes. Worked well with a middle ability year 9 class.

This is an introductory lesson to chromatography and the term pure. Students create a chromatogram of their own pen and compare it to others. They discover real life applications of this technique.
