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.

You can display this as a PowerPoint. If you print out two slides to a page you have a pub quiz style set of worksheets that you can use in a revision lesson.
Reviews welcome
Students write formulae from names and calculate relative molecular masses from formulae.
A simple two sided sheet that covers all the formulae and masses needed in the Y10 OCR course but will be useful for other boards.
comments welcome.
This can be used as an introduction to ethene. It is designed to help students link the displayed formula, that is common in texts, to the idea of a covalent bond being a shared pair of electrons.
Comments and feedback are welcome
The OCR Gateway Unit C2 syllabus turned into a series of questions and answers.
Really useful starter question bank
Great for knowledge acquisition.
The format is a table with two columns, one Questions, the other Answers. Students fold the paper in half and ask themselves the question, turn over for the answer. Great for revision in pairs or with a parent. Even if they don’t know the chemistry, because the answers are already there.
Now includes fundamental chemical concepts questions.

Adaptation of a very useful power point on Rates of reaction and factors affecting rates.
In its original free version it had over 60,000 downloads, so now after ten years I have put up the newest iteration and decided to charge, a little.
It is still animated in all the useful areas and contains many hidden slides that can be unmasked to aid with understanding.
Now includes recall questions as a starter and some more questions for a plenary
The pack includes a couple of useful writing frames for note taking and a set of revision questions for students to learn.

I made this presentation from the mark schemes of exam papers. It includes the examiners comments and notes. AQA are quite picky about getting the mechanisms just right so I went to the source, the examiners and not the texts.
There is a work book and an answer sheet in the resource. Pupils can be guided through the work book although more able pupils will be able to use it as an independent study booklet. I have included answers as colleagues found them helpful.
Reviews and constructive criticism welcome
