This is a set of 16 revision flashcards created for AQA C1.2 GCSE limestone cycle revision. The question and answer pages should be printed double sided and then cut out. The questions and answers match up when printed double sided. There are 8 Challenge questions to extend students and keywords in the question are highlighted in bold. Font is 1.5 line spacing to make the writing easier to read. GCSE grades D to A. Please rate this resource and leave feedback.

This is a Socrative quiz that can be imported using the code SOC-12169475. Copy this code and paste it in the 'import quiz&' section of your Socrative room. All 12 questions are graded and given a topic. There are a variety of short answer, multiple answer and pictorial questions. Questions cover fractional distillation, polymers, alkenes, alkanes and what a hydrocarbon is. Results from the quiz can be downloaded and analysed providing for outstanding Assessment For Learning.

This covers LiAlH4, reaction mechanisms, relative reactivity of carbonyl compounds. Please rate this resource and leave feedback.

These are printed in 2 slide handouts and laminated they are then stuck to a number line made with red tape and 0.5m markers in green tape. A photo of the number line in my lab is provided to model how this activity may be set up. I have 2 number lines on the floor of my classroom at the front and back of the lab. Useful experiments on speed, diffusion and discontinuous vs continuous variables.

This is a fun activity for lower ability groups that introduces pollution at GCSE. Cryptogram 1 is easier and cryptogram 2 is more challenging. Please rate this resource and leave feedback.

This is a PowerPoint that I share with AS students so that they are aware of the grade boundaries. I use percentage equivalents to grade work that is handed in. It is worthwhile bringing to students attention that AS boundaries are lower than A2 despite the increasing challenge in A2.

This is a peer editing exam question task on polarity for AS Chemistry. Students use the glossary keywords to answer an exam question. To help develop exam writing skills there are 3 graded questions based on the exam question. Students answer each of these questions then pass the sheet on to their partner to peer edit their work - such as by adding more detail from the glossary. The actual mark scheme is provided for students to assess themselves against. Please rate this resource and leave feedback.

In this lesson plan you will find the SOC codes to import our quiz and our short answer task to your Socrative room. These great revision activities that you can use with the whole class as starters, plenaries, or to consolidate learning.

These is a set of resources that I developed for my GCSE and A level students to help them structure their revision. This will help to reduce stress levels and my improve exam performance. Each day of the week is broken down into seven sections. These could be seven hours or seven half hours, depending on how much time the student wants to spend revising in one go. Revision tips are provided at the bottom of the calendar. A example revision schedule is provided for students to have a look at.

This is a lesson designed as part of the Edexcel A2 unit 4 scheme of work on carbonyl compounds. In this lesson students can carry out a practical (grade C) to compare the oxidation of primary, secondary and tertiary alcohols. The oxidation and distillation of a primary alcohol is demonstrated. Students then develop their understanding (grade B) by considering which type of oxidant would be best to oxidise geraniol (rose scent) to germinal (lemon scent). Geraniol could be used in the demo. The grade A task is writing organic redox half equations. Please rate this resource and leave feedback.

This is a lesson that is designed to develop higher level thinking on photosynthesis. This could be used at KS3 or GCSE and would fit into a scheme of work where the students have previously covered photosynthesis. In this lesson students are introduced to the thoughts of Thomas Malthus who said that resources (e.g. food) limit the growth of the population. Students are then given a task where they need to compare four plants and decide which plant they would recommend to farmers to grow. They need to justify their choice by referring to data from the sheets - such as saying that plants with longer root hairs will absorb more water and minerals or that plants with a greater density of chloroplasts would photosynthesis at a greater rate (assuming that CO2 etc are not limiting).

There is a newspaper template with boxes that students fill in using information from the website links. The NSB website is a website that provides symbol equations (very challenging). The Doncaster website is a lot easier to read and understand. I will later add a lesson PowerPoint and keywords glossary.

This is a demanding lesson on orders of reaction for Senior High School Chemistry. Questions and markschemes are included.

This is an assembly about the hero of our tutor group - President Obama. The assembly can open with music from Will.I.Am and close with the President Obama's singing of the hymn Amazing Grace at Pastor Pinckney's eulogy in Carolina following a mass shooting. Links to the videos are provided within the PowerPoint.

This is a presentation that I gave to colleagues at a TeachMeet event on using Socrative as an ICT assessment for learning tool. This presentation provides 8 tips for teachers on how to effectively use Socrative in their classrooms.

These cards provide information about 4 fictional plants and provide information about the height of the plant, length of root hair cell, number of chloroplasts in each leaf cell, time to grow, yield and other information such as drought tolerance. Students can use in a variety of plants lessons. Please rate this resource and leave feedback.

A PowerPoint for a lesson on reliability and repeats. Includes engaging demo that uses 8 students. Plenary can use the Dragons Den theme tune. More able will present a good pitch.
