A comprehensive, engaging and interactive lesson package designed with non-science/non-chemistry specialist teachers in mind! This lesson contains: Lesson powerpoint - including teacher delivery notes in “notes” section Student led lesson worksheet Teacher answer sheet Practical Risk Assessment Lesson resources contain: In-built challenge tasks throughout In-built scaffolded learning for lower abilities Objectives: Students will be able to… Describe what physical changes and chemical reactions are Know the different signs of a chemical reaction taking place Class different examples as either physical changes or chemical reactions Describe the difference between a physical change and chemical reaction This lesson contains a student led lesson sheet, with the focus being on students learning through doing, practicing skills and identifying patterns and reasons themselves. Resources and slides ask students the key questions and develops ideas and concepts from the ground up and address common issues, mistakes and misconceptions.

This lesson contains a full powerpoint focussed on recapping ‘chemical reactions’ covered at KS3. It is perfect for a Y7/Y8 class revising for assessments or needing a recap of the topic This lesson contains the following sections Recap of what a chemical reaction is Revisit of the signs of a chemical reaction Exothermic reaction /Endothermic reaction w/examples Combustion - complete vs incomplete Embedded quizzes at each section to assess learning

Chemical reactions presentation. How do you know a reaction has happened?

KS3 new for the AQA Approved Activate 1 unit ‘Reactions’. Full lesson ready to use straight ‘out of the box’. Though designed for teachers to deliver (specialist and non-specialists), the lessons are structured in an intuitive way for students to navigate for independent/ remote learning/ homework covering missed content/recap Similar structure to my other power points following the input - activity - review phasing plenary sections for progress checking Clear learning objectives and outcomes Modern and engaging layout Little adaptation needed Covers an hour lesson of content matched to the specification 29 ppt slides Please give constructive feedback :D

This resource is a comprehensive worksheet designed to enhance understanding of chemical reactions among KS3 students. Developed by AcademiQ Tutoring Limited, the worksheet covers various aspects of chemical reactions, including the differences between chemical and physical changes, reactants and products, observation methods for chemical changes, combustion of fuels, and thermal decomposition reactions. The worksheet provides clear explanations of key concepts, accompanied by relevant examples and visual aids to aid comprehension. Through a series of structured questions and activities, students are prompted to apply their knowledge and skills to solve problems related to chemical reactions. Each section of the worksheet is carefully crafted to engage students and encourage active learning. With a focus on both theoretical knowledge and practical applications, this resource serves as a valuable tool for reinforcing classroom learning and promoting independent study. Overall, the Chemical Reactions Worksheet offers a stimulating and interactive learning experience, facilitating students’ mastery of fundamental principles in chemistry while fostering critical thinking and problem-solving abilities.

This is a knowledge organiser which contains the fundamental principles from the ‘Chemical reactions’ topic from KS3 Activate 1. This would be suitable for a KS3 class studying chemical reactions from any curriculum. I used this to support my year 7 class with writing their own flashcards as end of unit revision, but it could have many applications. It is designed to be visual with diagrams to support the text and key vocabulary in bold. This knowledge organiser contains a brief overview of the following areas: Signs of chemical reactions Oxidation reactions Combustion reactions Decomposition reactions Word equations Conservation of mass (using ratios, balancing equations) Endothermic and exothermic reactions

Updated April 2018. It’s finally here, and I’m very proud of this resource pack! I’ve held off on publishing until the quality was right, and now it’s finally ready to go live. The quality of the formatting/animation is second to none on TES. TES SAYS IT’S 14 FILES, IT’S NOT IT’S 61, MANY ARE IN A ZIP FOLDER! I have now fixed the ZIP Folder issue, should download perfectly! Lesson order is as follows: 4.4.1.1 - Metal oxides 4.4.1.2 - The reactivity series 4.4.1.2 - Displacement reactions 4.4.1.3 - Extraction of metals and reduction 4.4.2.1 - Reactions of acids with metals 4.4.2.2 & 4.4.2.3 - Acids + Insoluble bases 4.4.2.4 - Neutralisation and the pH scale 4.4.2.6 - Strong vs. weak acids 4.4.3.1 - The process of electrolysis 4.4.3.2 - Molten electrolysis 4.4.3.3 - Using electrolysis to extract metals 4.4.3.4 - Electrolysis of aqueous solutions. That’s 12 lessons in total, all jam packed with novel animations, tasks, worksheets, green pen work throughs, and homeworks. Please do review this if you choose to purchase as it really helps my sales. Thanks for supporting my work. Lewis HOW THIS RESOURCE IS ORGANISED: All powerpoints are uploaded directly so browsers can see snippets of each one. Then inside your download there is a zip folder, which contains all powerpoints, checklists, worksheets, homeworks and mark schemes neatly organised in folders.
