I post things that are finished and that work. I make resources when I can't find anything that works in the way which I want it to. If they don't work for you then let me know through the comments section and I'll try to put them right. If they do work and you like them then please comment too. Some things take a long time to make and to get right... so I charge a little for those.

The same start as the copper powerpoint about the pitfalls of metal extraction. The difference is the animaton of the purification of copper that shows what happens at each electrode and also electroplating. Comments welcome.

How many atoms are there in me? starter.

How many atoms are there in me? starter.

(2)
I don't know what prompted it but a student asked me, 'How many atoms are there in me?' After a quick calculation based on her mass and the atoms all being carbon, the number was too big to visualise. Hence the subsequent question from the same student, 'So how big would that be if every atom was a one pence piece?' This is the result. Thanks Niamh, for the original question

Weathering, A Case Study using Surtsey Island,

(0)
A photographic introduction to the island, which was created by an underwater volcano in 1963. It has remained off limits to the general public and is studied to see how weathering and erosion lead to soil formation. The final slide can be used as a template for a weathering diagram or annotated as a class activity. Feedback welcomed.

Multiple choice quiz with answers that give an anagram of rutherford. The stems have strange lettering to achieve this so watch out, pupils find it difficult to get their heads round a. b. c. d. m. n. o. p.!

Advertising Triple Science to KS3

Triple Science Opens Doors is a powerpoint that can be used in assemblies or on interactive displays to advertise the benefits of triple science. I have also printed out the individual slides and displayed them in groups of three in labs and corridors. There are slides linked directly to food tech, product design, music, english, geography, history, so have them displayed there too!!
