Each lesson includes a ‘blast from the past quiz’, a range of activities and an AFL task that relates to their progress. This lesson is part of the Environmental Chemistry unit targeted at Year 8s. Students are introduced to Elon Musk and his new prototype. Students choose a new fuel with an ‘expert task’. Student groups learn content and share their knowledge with the class before explaining to Mr Musk what would be the best fuel.

A SOW of lessons to support Topic 3 of quantitative Chemistry. Lessons include Higher and foundation PowerPoints, learning outcomes and resources.

Each lesson includes a ‘blast from the past quiz’, a range of activities and an AFL task that relates to their progress. This lesson is part of the Environmental Chemistry unit targeted at Year 8s. Students are introduced to hydrocarbon fuels by planning and completing an experiment to test two hypotheses: H1) Longer chain hydrocarbons release more energy and H2) Shorter chain molecules burn cleaner. Students decide what application the fuels have in an AFl task. Bonus: A version of the lesson with a christmas theme is included "which fuels could power Santa’s Sleigh’.

Each lesson includes a ‘blast from the past quiz’, a range of activities and an AFL task that relates to their progress. This lesson is part of the Environmental Chemistry unit targeted at Year 8s. Students are introduced to the Titans of the media who support and refute ‘climate change’. Students are introduced to the scientific method. Students use video clips and teacher led activities to learn about the greenhouse effect. Students apply their knowledge by writing a script and performing a voice over for the trailer of a leonardo decaprio documentary trailer.

Each lesson includes a ‘blast from the past quiz’, a range of activities and an AFL task that relates to their progress. This lesson is part of the Environmental Chemistry unit targeted at Year 8s. Students are introduced to how scientists investigate the Earth’s early atmosphere. They are introduced with the problem of not having empirical evidence (that cannot be directly observed). Students join Doctor who ona journey back to the beginning of the Earth’s early atmosphere. Students observe directly how the Earth’s atmosphere changes and plot the changes on a line graph that overlays oxygen, carbon dioxide and nitrogen changes. Students finish the lesson with an introduciton into the modern day atmosphere.

The slides contain a series of thought processes and frameworks so teachers can model out load their approach for students to use during comprehension and reading of scientific ideas. The lesson could be adapted for other topics. This lesson focuses on an end of Year test including: Acids and alkalis, homeostasis, energy stores and transfers, the particle model and reflection/refraction. Lesson content -Students complete a recap quiz. -Students complete a reading task in which they synthesis the data to title paragraphs and write one question. -Students get into groups and circulate around the room reading an exam question, completing an answer, and folding it over so the next group cannot see their answer. Once back at their stations they draft a final answer to share to the class based on the class responses. -Meta cognition slides and exam style practice.

A KS3 introduction to the structure of the atom designed to challenge higher level students (However this lesson could be transferable to lower KS4 classes). Students are introduced to the large hadron collider and compare it to the particle accelerator Tony Stark creates in Iron man 2. Students use a range of materials to create their own atomic model of an atom using the rules learnt from the previous lesson. Students evaluate their own model in reference to its strengths and limitations. This introduction will allow students to further discuss ideas of compounds, bonding and reactivity in a far higher level in future lessons.

Students are introduced to the process of diffusion using the unusual example of flatulence! Students develop their understanding by performing a role play of how the atoms move before demonstrating their understanding with levelled questions.

Students read through the accounts of two cartoon characters to introduce the idea regarding the difference between science and opinion. Students are then introduced to a scenario involving the head teacher receiving the disturbing news that one of the teachers at school are in fact an alien! Students read through the letter he received and decide on whether this accusation is based on science or opinion. Students learn about chromatography as separation test. Students use a simple modification of the experiment to separate "blood samples" of each of the suspected teachers. The Alien teacher's blood sample will also contain green and blue food colouring. Students complete a wanted poster explaining their findings. This resource pack includes EAL differentiated worksheets, detailed lesson plans, and worksheets.

Each lesson includes a ‘blast from the past quiz’, a range of activities and an AFL task that relates to their progress. This lesson is part of the Environmental Chemistry unit targeted at Year 8s. Students watch a news report regarding an acidifed lake and form questions regarding how it may have happened. Students watch the demonstration: ‘Acid rain in a jar’ and complete a mini-quiz of their new knowledge. students are introduced to a environmental chemsitry scenario in which they need to complete a graph work to analyse why fish populations are increasing and decreasing during the year HINT: Acid rain is freezing in the winter and melting into the lake in the summer.
