**The Ultimate Teacher’s Planner and Tracker for Practical Subjects. ** You know how it goes when you teach a practical subject – a lesson title and scheme of learning reference is not enough. What equipment and substances do you need? What hazards do you need to think of? When you have got all that listed, then you have got to get the order slips from the prep room. Planning homework? Sorted, but did you set it? Did you check it in the lessons? And was Bobby away when it was set? When was that? Trivial things for sure, but they all add up and you do not have that time to waste. Maximise your efficiency and minimise these little irritations with everything in the one place in this tracker, including Order Slips. Plan your lessons in one place, include printing, assessment tasks, equipment, with quick tick boxes when it is done, or record if you need the practical again. Plan your homework timetable to spread your workload, keep track of other duties, intervention/detentions, and assignments to assess. Take note of progress through the week and of whole school priorities with the Weekly Planner and To Do page. Organised to reduce your cognitive load with maximum information for minimum writing. Know where you are and what you are doing and reduce stress and anxiety by managing your week efficiently.

“Give more detail.” How often does this comment get written next to those unstructured, written response questions? Let’s face it, the chemistry of aromatic compounds really lends itself to those comparison type questions. The reactions and functional group are multi-faceted and influence each other. Scan back through some A level past exam papers and you will see them there. This resource summarises different aspects of aromatic chemistry that might be compared. Similarities and differences are presented in 6 Venn diagrams, laying out the main points to take note of. The planning of answers to different questions is done here, ready to put into a clear, coherent paragraph, depending on the question asked. Ace those level of response questions in Arenes!

Atoms and the Periodic Table teaching Presentation for A level Chemistry. You’re teaching A level Chemistry, and let’s face it, you just don’t have time to make those pretty presentations that lay it all out, step by step, progressing from one concept to the next, with the opportunity to consolidate each step as you go. Here is everything you need in one presentation, split into 6 sections and covering Atoms and The Periodic Table. ALL of the exam boards start with atoms and then move onto Relative mass– kind of fundamental to understanding Chemistry, right? When you teach the next sections depends on which exam board you are doing. The sections are written in such a way that you can slip them into your teaching when you need them. The Alkaline Earth metals and the Halogens are included in their own sections. Models of the Atom. Relative mass and the Mass Spectrometer (link to RSC video ) Electronic Structure, Ionisation Energies and Atomic Emission Spectra. The periodic Table and Periodicity Group 2: The Alkaline Earth Metals Group 7: The Halogens Each section includes worked examples and opportunities to apply the learning, with the application questions worked out on the following slide. Just what you need to teach the topic, so that you can set further questions from the textbook in class or for homework. This pretty presentation will save you loads of time and help you to be the awesome teacher you know it is in you to be.

Presentation for** GCSE Chemistry** covering the key points and theory in the topic of The Atomic Theory and The Periodic Table. Includes: Atomic Structure Elements Isotopes The History of the Atom A comparison of the Plum Pudding and Nuclear Models Electronic Structure Electronic Structure and the Periodic Table Group 0: The Inert Gases Group 1: The Alkali Metals Group 7: The Halogens The Development of the Periodic Table Use together with my **FREE resource: Properties of groups. **

The A level Chemistry resources for teaching the** Mole Calculations **topic that allow you to focus your energy on a major factor that helps your students make the most progress – teacher feedback and the learning conversation. This set of resources contains: The student handout with the Map for Mole Calculations and Summary Infographic is included, as well as the pdf to print as Notes. The presentation, split into 6 sections and covering the whole of the Mole Calculations topic: The Mole, Formulae and Using Masses; a Map for Mole Calculations and Using Masses - laying out the explicit strategy so that students can deal with those unstructured questions; Standard Stock Solutions, Concentrations and Dilutions; Acid/Base Titrations and Calculations; Calculations Involving Gases and the Ideal Gas Equation; Balancing Equations from Mole Calculations. Videos of the presentations. Teaching by an experienced, subject expert. Use the video presentations for: Flipped learning – students receive the teaching before your lesson and you can then spend your time with them consolidating, practicing, giving feedback and deepening their learning. Cover work – if you are unable to be in the lesson, your students can still be moving forward, Catch up – if a student was away for that section, they can catch up easily. Homework support - students can review the teaching again, at their own pace. Revision – students can revisit areas they are struggling with as revision for tests and exams. Free up your time to do the bit that only you can do – engage with your students in the learning conversation so that they can make the progress you know they can make.

Do your ** A level Chemistry **or GCSE Triple/Separate Chemistry students get lost trying to make their way through Mole Calculations questions, especially those unstructured ones? Here is a map to show them the way. Do they get muddled about which relationship they need to use to calculate the number of moles and then resort to the old favourite n=mass/Mr? Here are some signposts to help them to orientate themselves. A handout that summarises the direction of travel and shows them what to look out for in the question as prompts to which relationships they need to use in the context of the question being asked. With over 20% of the marks available in the A level Chemistry for Mole Calculations, the clarity given here is a must! Suitable for all A level Chemistry courses AND if you ignore the ideal gas equation, GCSE Triple/Separate Chemistry.

A range of differentiated worksheets covering different aspects of particles in KS3 and KS4 Chemistry. Focus is on learning to recognise and describe the different types of particles that crop up throughout school chemistry including atoms, molecules, ions and subatomic particles, and how they make up elements and compounds. Sheets can be used in context of learning units, or brought in when prior learning is sketchy and in need of consolidation or clarification. Useful as plenaries, for revision, or as starters to get a quick assessment of prior learning to inform planning. Answers sheets or power points are also included for quick in class marking.

Power point slide shows, using particle pictures, to check understanding of the differences between elements and compounds, and atoms and molecules. Smart board interactive activity also includes mixtures with the elements and compounds, and the word match checks the meanings of keywords. Useful quick plenaries for KS3 Chemistry. Use coloured cards, moving left or right, mini white boards for students to show their answers. Can be fast paced, or repeat and reinforce definitions of key terms by picking out students who have given correct answers and asking them to explain why, scaffolding verbal answers given to enhance accuracy. Activities can also be used as starters for the next lesson, or for KS4 lessons to check prior learning. Ions word match smart board activity is also included for use with KS4.

Flashcards and display cards for word banks with meanings evident. Key terms in KS3 and KS4 Chemistry. Flashcards can be printed back to back and used in individual learning, or shared paired learning. They can be printed out separately and used to play “snap” or “pairs”, or simply to match the word with its meaning, or reduced in size in copying to make a cut and stick activity. Key terms include atom, molecule, element, compound, ion, mixture and others related to particles.
