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.
Help students to unlock the skills to calculate speed, distance and time with this set of 40 questions designed to enhance understanding and application of the density = mass/volume equation.
Perfect for KS3 students, or for KS4 review of prior learning this question set covers a wide range of scenarios using metric SI units (m, s, m/s)).
Students practice using the speed equation and then progress to manipulating the equation to calculate distance and time.
For an increased challenge students will then need to decide how best to use the equation for 10 mixed questions.

A calculated colouring activity in which students create their own Christmas card featuring a jazzy Christmas jumper! Students have to answer the questions in order to reveal the colours to shade the jumper. The questions feature all four operations, powers, brackets and roots so they will offer good practice on using a calculator properly. Once complete and coloured in they can add their own greeting to the front and the inside of the card.
This makes a great task for the end of term and gives the students a nice card to take home, with all the maths on the back of the card for them to show off!
The resource includes full instructions, a clear solution and ideas for how to extend students who finish. It can easily be made into a full lesson by combining it with other resources from our Christmas bundle.

A student workbook with A Level examination questions along with an accompanying teacher PowerPoint which explains how to solve the questions.
The resource goes through several calculations and question types involving a stage micrometer and eyepiece graticule. The PowerPoint and student workbook both have a step by step example of how to calibrate an eyepiece graticule and then how to use the same eyepiece graticule to measure cells and cellular components. The size of cells and organelles are measured using the micrometre (μm) scale. One question also asks student’s to calculate magnification (M) when both the size of the image (I), and the actual size of the specimen (A), is known. A starter activity where students label the parts of a light microscope is also included in both the PowerPoint and student workbook
The A Level OCR examination questions give students practice in calibrating an eyepiece graticule and use images from microscopes. The student booklet contains 6 questions and a range of different question types (calculation, written response and multi-choice) where students use their calculations of the eyepiece graticule to calculate the actual size of some real example images. Useful for exam practice and to build understanding of a tricky topic. Answers included in the animated PowerPoint so that the teacher can explain each step in the calculation. There is also a teacher version of the student workbook with a full mark scheme and examiner’s feedback.

Worksheet consisting of 15 questions where students need to calculate the energy using specific heat capacity formula.
Answers are included, so can be used as revision or as a final assessment task
This superb resource on bond energy calculations can be used for all abilities. It includes a more demanding version in which students need to determine the bonds in the reactants and products, and also a support sheet to help those who find it more challenging. The bond energy calculations resource includes the answers and a useful bond energy reference sheet. I use this resource with my Y10 students and they really enjoy it!
This resource introduces students to calculating reacting masses using the moles method. I use this as part of the AQA Chemistry Quantitative Chemistry topic. The resource comes with an information sheet on reacting masses and accompanying question and answer sheets. The question sheet can be used to do the scale method and also with A Level students.
This bundle contains 5 worksheets for each of the equations found in the combined AQA GCSE Electricity physics topic

The calculation worksheet (with answers and slides) is available separately here
Prepare your students for AQA Physics Paper 1 calculation questions with revision lesson focusing on selecting and utilising the relevant equations.
The lesson begins with identifying the quantities that appear on paper 1 and their relevant units. Then students practice identifying the correct equation to use in different situations with an opportunity for AfL. The lesson is designed assuming the students will have access to the AQA equation sheet, which can be downloaded from the AQA website.
The bulk of the lesson is Independent practice, where through 12 worded calculation questions, including 3 worked examples, students identify and use the correct equations from the Energy, Electricity and Particle Model topics. Competence in substitution, unit conversions and rearrangements are supported through use of the FIFA method in worked examples and answers.
Slides for two options of plenaries are also included - Spot the mistake and writing their own question - to consolidate the lessons content.
Perfect for Exam Preparation: This worksheet is an excellent tool for preparing students to tackle calculation questions typically found on AQA Physics Paper 1, and it’s equally valuable for other exam boards.
Included:
Full powerpoint slide deck (.ppt) with animated answers using our clean Resistance Physics layout.
Ready-to-print (.pdf) and editable (.doc) versions (.doc) of calculation worksheets and their solutions
Ready-to-print table of quantities and units (.doc)
