Simple checklist made using the GCSE combined science specification and includes all the key words and definitions. Great to have it all in one place for students to review their own learning and support metacognition.

A two lesson series introducing the concepts around compounds, including identifying compounds, finding numbers of atoms and elements from formulae, naming compounds and finding formulae of compounds. Could be combined into one lesson if you have a longer slot or very able pupils. Fully resourced, using ‘I do, we do, you do’ format to support explicit instruction from the teacher and regular checks for understanding to assist adaptive teaching.

Full lesson with a fact find around the room, table to complete and activities to embed understanding. Fully resourced, using ‘I do, we do, you do’ format to support explicit instruction from the teacher and regular checks for understanding to assist adaptive teaching.

Bring this topic to life with this lesson, drawing a timeline across your board with the help of scinetific discoveries! Fully resourced. Fully resourced, using ‘I do, we do, you do’ format to support explicit instruction from the teacher and regular checks for understanding to assist adaptive teaching.

Fully resources lesson. Pupils find facts about the atom around the room and complete tiered summary activities to embed these, including option to make a model. Fully resourced, using ‘I do, we do, you do’ format to support explicit instruction from the teacher and regular checks for understanding to assist adaptive teaching.

GCSE lesson which covers finding numbers of protons, neutrons and electrons; and using these to find the symbol for the element as well. Includes common misconceptions around the symbols used to represent atoms, being similar to those in the periodic table. Fully resourced, using ‘I do, we do, you do’ format to support explicit instruction from the teacher and regular checks for understanding to assist adaptive teaching.

GCSE lesson introducing the concept of isotopes and using tiered activities to embed this. Leading into modeling of calculating relative atomic mass, with tiered practice following and option to expand into inverting these calculations to find percentage of isotopes for HPA pupils. Fully resourced, using ‘I do, we do, you do’ format to support explicit instruction from the teacher and regular checks for understanding to assist adaptive teaching.

GCSE lesson using modeling and detailed instruction to support pupils in drawing electron configurations for the first 20 elements and starting to spot trends. Fully resourced, using ‘I do, we do, you do’ format to support explicit instruction from the teacher and regular checks for understanding to assist adaptive teaching.

Introduces the concept of atoms and elements, with I do ,We do, You do structure for explicit instruction and modeling; and checks for understanding to support you in assessing learning in real time, enabling truly adaptive teaching.

Introductory lesson, detailing the discovery of subatomic particles and then calculating numbers of subatomic particles for examples. Includes worksheet to practice calculating numbers of particles for atoms and ions.

Colouring by numbers activity for GCSE Chemistry/science revision. Easy revision activity or home work which allows pupils to practice recall of key facts. Pupils simply answer each question, then find the answer in the table to know which colour to use when colouring in the picture for that question number. Foundation version also included.

Colouring by numbers activity for GCSE Chemistry/science revision. Includes AQA C1, C2, C3 and C4. Easy revision activity or home work which allows pupils to practice recall of key facts. Pupils simply answer each question, then find the answer in the table to know which colour to use when colouring in the picture for that question number.

Great fun revision activity or homework. Pupils answer each question and find the answer on the table to find out which colour to use when colouring in the diagram (e.g. the answer to question 1 gives the colour pink, so all number 1’s in the picture are to be coloured in pink). Each has around 12 questions and can be adapted by changing the questions. For extra challenge, consider giving the colour table and picture but no questions; pupils then have to think of question with the answers that are in the table and colour the picture accordingly! Topics include: Calculating means Units P1 energy sources P2 electrical symbols (by name and by description) P2 electricity facts P3 (very easy) P4 inside the atom P4 radiation particles P5 forces revision P6 waves P7 magnets and electromagnets

Great fun revision activity or homework. Pupils answer each question and find the answer on the table to find out which colour to use when colouring in the diagram (e.g. the answer to question 1 gives the colour pink, so all number 1’s in the picture are to be coloured in pink). Each has around 12 questions and can be adapted by changing the questions. All hand drawn (I hope you like the evolution one especially!) For extra challenge, consider giving the colour table and picture but no questions; pupils then have to think of question with the answers that are in the table and colour the picture accordingly! Topics include: B1 facts B1 parts of a cell B2 food tests B2 heart B2 leaf B3 diseases B4 photosynthesis B4 respiration B5 Homeostasis and response B6 Inheritance, variations and evolution B7 adaptations B7 food webs B7 ecology facts

Colouring by numbers activity for GCSE Chemistry/science revision. Includes AQA C5 (Energy changes calculations), C6 (Rate and extent of chemical change), C7 (Organic chemistry) and C8 (Chemical analysis). Easy revision activity or home work which allows pupils to practice recall of key facts. Pupils simply answer each question, then find the answer in the table to know which colour to use when colouring in the picture for that question number.

Worksheet for pupils to use to scaffold recalling how to find the centre of mass of an irregular object. Bronze option is a sentence sort to put steps in order, Silver is a fill in the gaps and gold is a complete the storyboard activity. Words are provided for the ‘fill in the gap’ activity but could easily be removed to increase difficulty or provide an extra option. Made so that each activity is on its own page for easy printing.

A range of worksheets, with answers, to help pupils to revise aspects of rates of reaction, including: Methods of measuring rate Factors affecting rate Calculating rates of reaction Le Chatelier’s principle and reversible reactions Also includes a RAG table to help pupils identify which sheet will help them progress.

Two worksheets to help pupils practice the types of questions which come up about water of crystallisation; with answers. One sheet has the three common types of question separated for pupils to practice that type only; the other has the types mixed in together such that pupils have to identify which type of calculation to do before carrying it out.

Three worksheets of practice carrying out concentration calculations using moles. Sheet labelled m is scaffolded to help pupils carry out the calculations. Also includes a set of practice questions intended as homework but could be used as revision or extra practice. All with answers.

Colouring by numbers revision activities to revise all AQA chemistry topics. Some large topics have been covered in several colouring activities due to amount of content. All images hand drawn. 20 activities in total. Great fun revision!
