I know how frustrating and time consuming it is to try to find resources for your students. I have downloaded all the Biology Sample Papers and Exam papers issued by Edexcel for the 9-1 Papers along with their markschemes and placed them on TES for you. I have no copyright on these and they are freely available elsewhere, as well as through Edexcel as individual downloads that you need to save one by one, I just felt it easier to put them all in one place for you, as a single download. With sensible names. I will keep updating this download as the years go by for you. If you would like other resources, please do check out my shop. I have summary sheets, A3 pages of in-class summary activities and even the whole curriculum onto question-and-answer revision cards so that your students can quiz each other as lesson starters, or make their own cards at home to aid their revision.

Chemical Formulae and their Names
tlandsbergtlandsberg

Chemical Formulae and their Names

(2)
This is a table containing the majority of chemical formulae that students will come across in GCSE. I use this table for both my Chemistry GCSE students and my BTEC Applied Science students to get them used to the chemical formulae and their written names. I also challenge my higher ability Year 9s with this page. On the second page the table has been completed: This page I use for a card sort for pairs of students. The second page can also be used to create revision cards by folding them on the middle line and gluing them together. Have fun and happy learning!
Calculating masses of reactants and products

Calculating masses of reactants and products

(1)
This resource is a collection I have made over the years of 12 GCSE Chemistry questions for students to calculate the mass of reactants and products. Use this resource to assist students through the calculations, or as a piece of homework to ensure they understand the work. Questions can be used in tests, as starters, as plenaries, etc.
Periodic Table Symbols and Names cardsort
tlandsbergtlandsberg

Periodic Table Symbols and Names cardsort

(1)
This is a gem of a resource: it has 36 elements of the periodic table: their symbol along with their name. This will assist students to learn the names and symbols of elements quickly and easily. An extension to this could be getting students to put the elements in order, or to place the elements into their groups, or, for older students place the elements into their combining power sets. Have fun!
Hazard Symbols Match the pictures

Hazard Symbols Match the pictures

(0)
This is a resource that can be used for all years, particularly Year 7 lab safety induction into secondary science, but also for Applications of Science BTEC course to help ensure students know their hazard symbols. The first page has the names of the hazard symbols, the second page has the pictures of the hazard symbols. This resource can be used in a number of different ways, depending what you want to do and what your students are familiar with: -A starter or plenary activity -Group work: they're given the cards, separated, and they need to sort and pair as a group. -Pair work: Use the keywords as a question for an opponent to locate the answer. -Give each student a card sort (separated already) as a homework/classwork activity. -Give each student the two pages of cards to stick the words and the symbol back to back to make key idea revision cards to learn for revision. -Choose a few as a starter activity, jumble them up, and pop onto a slide for the beginning of a lesson -Any other use you can think of! If you use as a class set for starters or plenaries: laminate them, they will last longer and be reusable. *Oct 2017: I have updated this resource to also now have the new red and black symbols included. Hope it helps*
Balancing Equations

Balancing Equations

(0)
Have you ever tried to think of equations for your students to practice balancing equations on, but you've just run out of ideas? Here are a full 4 pages of equations that you can give them to balance, including a bit of space for calculations. You can use this resource as a starter, as the main part of your lesson or as the plenary. Copy this on to a double sided A3 sheet to make it easier; then they're all on a single page. BETTER YET: You get the answers too - which means you don't have to work out all the answers to the worksheet yourself. Have fun!

Are you tired of students identifying measuring cylinders as beakers and calling beakers "cups"?? Struggling with students getting names of apparatus wrong in test and in conversations? This is what you have been looking for! THIS is a resource that can be used for all years, particularly Year 7 apparatus identification and induction into secondary science, but also for Applications of Science BTEC course to help ensure students know their pieces of apparatus for their practical examination. The first page has the names of the common apparatus for KS3 and KS4, the second page has the pictures of the apparatus to help students to recognise them. This resource can be used in a number of different ways, depending what you want to do and what your students are familiar with: -A starter or plenary activity -Group work: they're given the cards, separated, and they need to sort and pair as a group. -Pair work: Use the keywords as a question for an opponent to locate the answer. -Give each student a card sort (separated already) as a homework/classwork activity. -Give each student the two pages of cards to stick the words and the symbol back to back to make key idea revision cards to learn for revision. -Choose a few as a starter activity, jumble them up, and pop onto a slide for the beginning of a lesson -Any other use you can think of! Laminate a class set of them if you want to use them repeatedly.

iGCSE Edexcel 9-1 Chemistry Chp 1&2 Section A Kinetic Theory Diffusion Atomic structure Broadsheet

(1)
This is a summary sheet I made for my students using the Pearson iGCSE Student book: the questions in each box inspire students to summarise the work that they need to know for this section. I am gradually adding the other Chapters as I go along, including the Biology and Physics chapters. I would print this A3 sheet double sided. It would also be good to pop it onto a coloured sheet, then you can make each subject (Bio, Chem, Phys) a different colour to easily refer to them in class.
Card sort of Food tests and tests for gases Chemistry and Biology card sort

Card sort of Food tests and tests for gases Chemistry and Biology card sort

(0)
I wanted a resource that would challenge my students to REALLY think about the various food tests and how they fit together, as well as which chemicals are used. This resource also incorporates the chemistry side of testing for gases, what to use, how it works, etc. I couldn't find one to suit what I needed, so I made this. This card sort encourages students to really think about reagents used in food tests as well as what the colour changes and the results will be. The items covered in the card sort are: Test for reducing sugars Test for starch Test for proteins Test for fats Test for carbon dioxide Test for hydrogen Test for oxygen Test for an alkene Test for chlorine Test for ammonia Test for water (both of them) The boxes are all the same size, so students cannot find answers due to the size of the box. I have included a second document with the answers - so that you can accurately assess students with a glance. Give each student a copy of the '4 on one page' to cut up and stick in book, or laminate and use as a starter/plenary in groups. If you can think of any other "test for" - feed back to me in the comments and I will happily add/edit my resource. Thank you!

Hi all! This is a revision mat I created to help my students summarise their work bit by bit to try to keep them on top of the enormous content of the new 9-1 2016 curriculum. Hopefully it will help with revision as it is a great little activity. I contains a mixture of diagrams, calculations, questions, definitions, formulae that are needed and a touch of fun. I will be adding further resources as I create them, this one goes up to page 35 of the OCR textbook. Keep me posted on how it goes! :-)
Compounds and their formulae

Compounds and their formulae

(0)
This is a resource is of back to back cards of chemical compound names and their formulae. Print each page. Stick the pages back to back, and you'll be able to cut out the different circuit components to use as revision/quiz cards. Great for spot-checks that students know the various different components.

iGCSE Edexcel 9-1 Section A Chemistry Biology Chpt 1&2 Revision Mat Broadsheet Bundle

(1)
This is a bundle of A3 summary sheets I made for my students using the Pearson iGCSE Student book: the questions in each box inspire students to summarise the work that they need to know for this section. THis resource includes the first two chapters of each of the Biology (Section A: Life Processes and The Variety of Living Organisms) and Chemistry (Section A: Kinetic Theory, Diffusion, Atomic Structure) topics. I am gradually adding the other Chapters as I go along. I would print each of these topics on an A3 sheet double sided, so that the same topic is on a double-sided sheet. It would also be good to pop each double sided-sheet onto a coloured A3 sheet, then you can make each topic (Bio/Chem) a different colour to easily refer to them in class.

Edexcel 9-1 GCSE Revision Mat CC1 Chemistry

This revision mats was designed to summarise the first chapter of the new 2016 Chemistry Combined Science Course. The sheet also includes revision and summary information on the two core practicals that fall within the unit. It does include the details of which Pearson Edexcel textbook page numbers each little section refers to for reference if the student wishes to go back and recap. It also include some exam-style questions. Our students responded really well to these: basically I summarise the pages, we give them out, the students fill them in a memorise the pages, and then they do pretty ace in their assessment as the assessments now are about knowing the content backwards (the revision mat) and then because they know the content, application within the assessment is far easier no matter what question is asked. I hope this helps. I have Biology and Physics too elsewhere, or all in a bundle if you want.

This resource includes the first two chapters of each of the Biology (Section A: Life Processes and The Variety of Living Organisms) and Chemistry (Section A: Kinetic Theory, Diffusion, Atomic Structure) topics, and Chapters 1 and 2 of the Physics topic (Movement and postion and Forces and Shape). I am gradually adding the other Chapters as I go along. I would print each of these topics on an A3 sheet double sided, so that the same topic is on a double-sided sheet. It would also be good to pop each sheet onto a double-sided coloured A3 sheet, then you can make each topic (Bio/Chem/Physics) a different colour to easily refer to them in class.

OCR Revision Mats 9-1 Chapter 1

3 Resources
These revision mats are created to be summaries of Chapter 1 of each of the Biology, Chemistry and Physics topics in the new OCR 9-1 course. They contain questions specific to the course, and will help students to summarise their work for the chapter onto single sheets. The full sets of these will then serve as full revision summary notes come the end of the year.
