This is my third book (published April 7th 2020). This file is a downloadable pdf. The book includes:
A risk-assessment list for teachers who are involved in online teaching (contains some not-so-obvious things to be aware of)
Tips for teachers when using social media
A list of 100 apps teachers can use for online learning, with advice on how how each one can be used.
Review on Amazon.com, April 17th 2020:
100 Awesome Online Learning Apps is actually quite an AWESOME book. The book is very timely and significant. It lists 100 different apps and divide them in four sub groups,
Communication & Collaboration
Creation
Constructing knowledge
Assessment and Feedback
This helps the book easier to navigate as per your needs. The description of each app is kept crisp and to the point. The author does not bore you with unnecessary details and just sticks to recording what it offers and it’s benefits. The whole world has turned to online teaching during these crazy times and it can be very difficult to decide on which app to use for what. One app may suit best for communication while another suits best for evaluation. This book from an experienced teacher and Google Certified educator comes as a relief and helps you decide. Best thing is both students and educators can use this for their benefit. Very useful and helpful.
This is a brilliant, two-page ionic bonding worksheet that is suitable for GCSE, IGCSE and MYP students.
The worksheet comes with full solutions and has been hand-made and checked by me (I’m a high school chemistry teacher with 15 years of experience).
In the worksheet, students have to fill in the blanks, add electrons to shells and draw a full diagram.
This is basically a big collection of worksheets that covers the entire content from a typical IGCSE Edexcel Chemistry first year class (i.e. Year 10 in the British system). This workbook has massive crossover with other IGCSE Chemistry and GCSE chemistry syllabuses.
Guaranteed to:
Save you planning time
Provide meaningful material for homework or classwork
Can be set in sequence as separate assignments or could even be printed out in entirety and given to students at the start of the academic year.
Topics covered:
Particle Theory
Density, pressure and diffusion
Changes of state (solids, liquids and gases)
Cooling curves
Mixtures
Separating mixtures (chromatography, distillation, filtration and crystallization)
Atomic structure (including isotopes, RAM, electronic configurations. relative isotopic mass, relative molecular mass, relative formula mass and molar mass)
Writing and balancing equations
Molar calculations (including The Mole, Empirical Formula, Molecular Formula, Reacting Mass Calculations, Percentage Yield
Ionic bonding
Covalent bonding (including ‘dot and cross’ diagrams and ‘giant’ structures)
Metallic bonding
Electrolysis (solutions and molten compounds)
The periodic table (groups and periods)
Group 1
Group 7
Oxygen chemistry
Carbon dioxide chemistry
Hydrogen chemistry
Reactivity series (including ‘galvanising’ and ‘sacrificial protection’
Extraction of metals
Crude oil
The only disadvantages of this resource are:
It’s a big word document so might need a little tidying-up prior to printing
There’s no answers with it yet (but I’m working on that)
This is an awesome crossword puzzle that would serve as an excellent starter, plenary or in-lesson activity for any periodic table and electron shells class. This crossword tests students’ knowledge of:
Order of filling of electrons
Position of elements in the periodic table
Electronic configurations of type 2,8,2 (s,p and d orbitals are not covered)
This is a lot of fun and my students loved it. The kids will literally have to hunt through a periodic table to find answers to clues such as:
This element has an electronic configuration of 2,7
This element has an electronic configuration of 2,8,5
The first three periods of the periodic table are tested.
In this pack you get a PPTX (which you can edit), a pdf version and a png of the puzzle itself (in case you want to project it on your interactive whiteboard for students to fill in).
This is a fun (and moderately challenging) crossword puzzle that would serve as an excellent starter, plenary or in-lesson activity for any class about the periodic table. Suitable for GCSE, IGCSE and pre-IB/AS - Level stduents, this crossword tests students’ knowledge of:
1. The meaning of 'group number' and how this relates to reactivity trends
2. How 'group number' relates to outer shell electrons
3. Names of groups in the periodic table
4. Names of elements found in particular groups
5. Real-life scenarios of elements (e.g. iron in red blood cells, silicon in computer chips)
6. Metals and non-metals
7. Alkali metals, noble gases, halogens and transition metals
8. Metalloids
This is a lot of fun and your kids will love it. If your students have never learnt anything about the periodic table before, then you could provide the students with a summary to help them as they do the puzzle.
In this pack you get a PPTX (which you can edit), a pdf version and a png of the puzzle itself (in case you want to project it on your interactive whiteboard for students to fill in).
A fun, clear, comprehensive and varied worksheet that works well as starter, plenary or as a chunk of the main body of lesson.
Suitable for GCSE or IGCSE Chemistry, Science (Double Award) or Science (Single Award), this resource covers:
1.The meaning of 'group number' and how this relates to reactivity trends
2. How 'group number' relates to outer shell electrons
3. Names of groups in the periodic table
4. Similarities in reactivity between elements
5. Differences between elements and compounds
Comes complete with answers. Great for peer or self-assessment.
Included in this pack are both the word doc (which you can edit) and pdf versions.
This is a fun (and moderately challenging) crossword puzzle that would serve as an excellent starter, plenary or in-lesson activity for any class about elements, compounds and isotopes. This crossword tests students’ knowledge of:
1. The differences between elements and compounds in terms of physical structure, ease of separation and reactivity
2. Groups and periods in the periodic table, and how they relate to valence electron and shell number
3. The atomic definition of isotopes
This is a lot of fun and your kids will love it. If your students have never learnt anything about elements, compounds and isotopes before, then you could provide the students with a summary to help them as they do the puzzle.
In this pack you get a PPTX (which you can edit), a pdf version and a png of the puzzle itself (in case you want to project it on your interactive whiteboard for students to fill in).
A brilliant, well-illustrated, clear and varied worksheet that works well as starter, plenary or as a chunk of the main body of lesson.
Suitable for GCSE or IGCSE Chemistry, Science (Double Award) or Science (Single Award), this resource covers:
1. The differences between elements and compounds in terms of physical structure (represented by diagrams), ease of separation and reactivity
2. Groups and periods in the periodic table, and how they relate to valence electron and shell number
Comes complete with answers. Great for peer or self-assessment.
Included in this pack are both the word doc (which you can edit) and pdf versions.
Suitable for Key Stage 3 onwards, these questions allow practice in the addition of fractions. Denominators are different, and answers can be given in mixed or classical form!
Brilliant as a starter or 'chunking' activity. Will keep students busy for a while.
This incredibly clear PowerPoint goes through the key calculations involved in working out the mol/dm cubed for solutions. Suitable for 'A' - Level and IBDP students, this PowerPoint even includes some great questions at the end that the students can try for themselves.
