I am a TES recommended author and a UK Science teacher with a Chemistry specialism. You'll find various KS3 and KS4 Science resources here (Biology, Physics and Chemistry) as well as some A level Chemistry stuff. I try to make my lessons visually appealing, with clear diagrams and text and a variety of different tasks. If you have any suggestions of resources you'd like to see uploaded, I'd be happy to hear from you.

Electricity Do Nows

(0)
3 x Electricity Do Now activities. Each asks students to link keyword to their definitions and then draw a relevant diagram (eg. circuit diagram) to review learning. 1. The first tests keywords such as 'light bulb', 'battery', 'series circuit' and 'parallel circuit' and asks students to explain series and parallel circuits using a diagram. 2. The second tests keywords such as 'current', 'ammeter', 'voltmeter' and 'series circuit' and asks students to draw circuit diagrams containing particular components. 3. The third tests keywords related to a plug, such as 'live wire', 'neutral wire', 'fuse' and asks students to draw a plug and explain its important parts

2 x Energy keyword Do Nows

(0)
2 x Energy keyword match-up Do Nows. Each activity involves students matching keywords to their definitions and then answering questions or correcting a paragraph. 1. The first tests students on types of energy, with keywords such as 'kinetic energy', 'thermal energy' and 'light energy' and then asks questions on useful and wasted energy transfers. 2. The second tests students on energy transfer process, with keywords such as 'conduction', 'convection', 'radiation' and 'vacuum' and asks students to correct spelling and grammar mistakes in a paragraph.

(1)
A year 7 or 8 lesson on metal alloys. PowerPoint and worksheets included (at the back of the PowerPoint). LOs: To state what is meant by an alloy. To describe the uses of some alloys. To explain why an alloy can be stronger than a pure metal. 1. Do Now: Can you remember the names of these 4 metals? Which would you use to build a bridge? Why? 2. Exposition: Video (BBC) or exposition on alloys. Ask students to define what an alloy is (could be done via Think, Pair, Share). 3. Student Activity: Worksheet answering questions on alloys video (higher and scaffolded version included) 4. Student Activity: 'Information hunt' on what various alloys contain and what their applications are 5. Exposition: Why are alloys strong? Linking strength to microscopic structure 6. Plenary: Exam style question on why alloys are strong (keywords may be provided to help) For more resources check out my shop: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/alexpce If you liked this resource, please write a review! :)
