The worksheet provides a starter (recap of electrolysis cell from previous lesson), method, results table and questions for the students to answer.

A revision lesson based around the 6 mark question on the development of the Earth’s atmosphere from the summer 2018 exam. Looks at the question, command word and what it means, identifying the topic and key words etc. Walks through the knowledge needed to answer the question, look at mark scheme and then attempt question again. FInish with extension to a different question.

This is a revision lesson based around the summer 2018 ionic bonding exam question common to both H and F tier. Covers: identifying and understanding the command word, key words and their definitions, identifying if an ionic bond is formed, using the periodic table to find the number of electrons in an atom, forming ions. Model answer included that extends to cover answers for 6 mark questions.

Revision of the key concepts with a focus on key words. I used the GCSE pod video to help the students answer the questions on slide 2, but any suitable video could be used.

Review of observations when chemical reactions happen and a basic introduction to rates and observations we can make to tell us that the rate is different. This lesson was designed for bottom set Y10 with lots of SEN students. 2 practicals included. Could be split over 2 lessons depending on length.

Put together for AQA A Level Chemistry (new specification), but may also be useful for higher sets at GCSE. Review of knowledge of C/A's and esters from GCSE. Practical making an ester using the simple method freely available from RSC (link on slide) and a differentiated task for once they have finished.

I put this together as part of AQA A-Level revision for Y13. Summary of what metal-aqua ions are and they reactivity with NH3, NaOH and Na2CO3 (colour changes etc). I printed out the last slide and gave them a copy each for their notes.

For the starter activity provide the class with some information about the elements. This can be tailored to your class, giving more or less information depending on ability (easily found on the web). Scavenger hunt activity about the scientists and their contribution to the development of the periodic table with a table to fill in. I have sanitised the information and cut down the amount of information that they need to read so that this can be completed in 10 minutes. AfL leading to a differentiated exam question. I had 3 sheets scaffolded to different levels. The scaffolding I provided is given on page 2 of the word document.
