On of a series of 'maths in science' activities. They are differentiated and include a DIRT activity for students to reflect and improve from the first set of questions.

The lesson is aimed at Triple Science GCSE. Within the Powerpoint there are activities, including a practical, for students to practice their learning. Differentiated questions included.

These sheets are to help students revise content from Chemistry Paper 1 (triology) that they need to know for the new GCSE specifications. They could be used with Year 10 or 11. Each sheet has differentiated questions. They could be used in lessons, for homework or in extended days for Year 11 students.

Two lessons, with one on Glass, ceramics and composites and another on rusting. Both differentiated throughout and exam questions included (with one scaffolded for support). The first lesson includes making different types of concrete by having different ratios of ingredients, with their strength to be tested at the beginning of the next lesson (rusting). Rusting lesson has an experiment to test the conditions needed for rusting to occur. Learning Objectives: Explain who ceramics are made Explain how different properties are related to their functions Compare the physical properties of glass, ceramics and composites Learning Objectives: Describe what rusting is and the factors that cause it to happen Explain how different methods can prevent rusting from occurring Justify why alloys are used

KS3 lesson used to teach about metal ores and extracting them from the ground. Learning Objectives: Describe why metals are found as ores Explain the impact of extracting these ores from the ground Analyse the impact on humans of extracting ores from the ground

New GCSE lesson on rusting for the AQA syllabus. Previous lesson I had the students set up the practical (nails in different conditions) to be ready to look at in this lesson. Differentiated throughout and scaffolded exam question also provided for plenary or homework. Learning Objectives: Describe what rusting is and the factors that cause it to happen Explain how different methods can prevent rusting from occurring Justify why alloys are used

New GCSE lesson on reversible reaction for the AQAA syllabus

The resource contains a wide range of worksheets which will prepare students for year 1 or year 2 exams. There are sheets for many of the target functional groups and questions on multi stage syntheses

A set of homeworks for KS3 students to research key discoveries in science. Created to be completed in a half term as a group of weekly tasks.

New GCSE lesson on hydrocarbons and introducing alkanes to the students. When looking at the different properties of the different length hydrocarbon chains the practical demo I did was to show them 'short chain' alkanes and 'long chain' alkanes and compare the two. The students then wrote down the results a table which is shown in the lesson. Learning Objectives: Describe what crude oil is and where it has come from Draw out and identify alkanes using molecular and displayed formulae Explain the properties of different chain length alkanes

New GCSE lesson on Life Cycle Assessments for the AQA syllabus. Looking at writing LCAs for paper vs plastic bags and touching on a little recycling. Learning Objectives: Describe how LCAs are used Explain the drawbacks of LCAs Analyse how recycling can affect the environment

New GCSE lesson on chromatography for the AQA syllabus. Looks at calculating the retention factor of food colourings. Differentiation throughout and exam questions included. Learning Objectives: Describe what chromatography is Explain the steps in creating a chromatogram Calculate the retention factor of different food colourings

Sequence of lessons for Year 7 on lab safety. Generally to be used in their first lessons in science.

New GCSE lesson on bond enthalpy for the AQA exam board Learning Objectives: Recall the energy changes in bond breaking and making Explain why reactions are exothermic or endothermic in terms of bond enthalpy Calculate the energy transfer in reactions using bond energies

KS3 lesson on displacement reactions Learning Objectives: Describe how metals can displace other metals Explain what a displacement reaction is Predict the outcome of reactions

New GCSE lesson on rates of reaction, looking at concentration, for the AQA exam board

New GCSE lesson on cracking, explaining how the process works and why we do it for the AQA syllabus Learning Objectives: Describe the differences between alkanes and alkenes Explain what the process of cracking is and why we use it

A lesson created for the maths department to use during science week, looking at graph work and relative formula mass. Can be used in science lessons too! Differentiated throughout. Learning Objectives: Describe what is needed to draw a graph Calculate the relative formula mass of compounds Analyse equations to work out the mass of unknown substances

These flashcards are based on fact recall for Chemistry paper 1. They are aimed at combined science students, but easily adapted for separate science students. They are a great activity for class, homework or extended days. Relevant for both year 10 and year 11 students.
