As is.

A simple wordsearch on 1 side of A4. It is quite a challenge! For GCSE chemists. ( I have now removed an error which had two letters in one box and one box with a space. I had to make it bigger and spread the puzzle onto two sides, one side with clues and one with the puzzle grid. Apologies to those who bought the defective version- contact me for a replacement)

A simple worksheet on IUPAC nomenclature. A set of simple rules, followed by nine questions (branched chain alkanes and alkenes) over two sides. With separate answers sheet. First of a series.

I made a very simple ‘fill in the gaps’ worksheet. It may be useful because it focuses on the adjectival and noun words in this topic.

A simple, photocopiable worksheet (black and white!) that gives practice at interpreting simple chemical formulae. The examples get harder as you proceed. It is comprised of two pages of examples. It is suitable for KS3 and KS4 students. It could be used in class or for homework.

This is a very simple worksheet. Link the name of the polymer to its monomer. Then draw the repeating unit. A drag and drop version may follow. Watch this space.

An introductory sheet of answers, followed by cut and stick exercise for this challenging mechanism. Cut and stick promotes familiarity with the mechanism, promotes discussion when done in groups, and is enjoyed immensely by sixth formers.

I have improved my video of this reaction mechanism.

One of the most useful skills in answering many GCSE chemistry questions is to work out what type of reaction is involved in the question. This helps you work out what the products may be, but also answer other questions about the reaction. Students often find this very difficult, mainly due to a lack of practice and experience. This simple information sheet with questions at the back is in black and white so can be readily photocopied.

A simple, readily photocopied worksheet on phenol. Information on the front, six questions on the back.

For AQA GCSE Chemistry.

This is a simple book of simple Sudoku puzzles. There are ten puzzles in total. The first five use the characters 1 to 9. The second five use the characters 1 to 9 and A to G. Solutions are provided.

Because I could.

I needed a clean, scalable (vector)graphic of fleming’s left hand rule that I could freely use in my resources, so resorted to drawing my own. I thought I would share it. If anyone would like to use the editable SVG version or postscript or EPS etc, contact me.

I took a list of 78 body organs to produce this, for fun. I included a class bingo version.
