Designed to meet the KS3 and KS4 specification. Covers introduction to food chains and links towards food webs. Discusses how the sun provides all energy to food chains. Activities will help students understand how chain is dependent on each step. Worksheet enables students to deepen learning on herbivores, omnivores, apex predators etc. Lesson then leads into pyramid of numbers and pyramids of biomass with example questions for plenary.

Designed as an intro for KS3 but also can be delivered as a recap for KS4. Introduces electricity as the movement as electrons (with atom diagram) so that students are aware of this from the begining. Symbols and related worksheet given as activity. Leads students through identifying series and parallel circuits with digrams on board. Activity for students to determine if circuits work or not (with reasons). Introduction to Amps. Plenary is exam style question

Please see preview PDF as TES preview doesn’t support the powerpoint format. Delivered to years 10 and 11 top sets but can easily be altered for different abilities. Recaps balancing equations with visuals and worked examples, leads the students to understanding that equations represent the numbers of moles in a reaction. Worked example of reacting mass calculations to determine the amount of materials needed to provide a product (business context). Questions with answers for students to attempt. Plenary is exam style questions with answers.

Used for an observation This was aimed for a top set class but can be easily tailored for lower ability students. Contains past paper exam style questions and answers. Also attached are differentiated sheets to assist students with understanding the different methods of cracking (thermal / steam and catalytic). Animations included to assist visual learners.
