My powerpoint (including youtube links) for teaching about the miller-urey experiment and other theories for the orgins of life.

Automated quiz. Gives students 30seconds to answer before it automatically moves on. It then gives a minute to switch papers and flashes up answers for 10 seconds. Excellent revision for photosynthesis and respiration (a topic we do in year 8). Best if students are in groups of ~4.

A worksheet designed to guide students through how to write ionic equations. Will work well across all abilities - either to support low ability classes in conjunction with teaching - or for high ability classes to be given to work it out for themselves. Includes a series of questions after it guides them through to test if they have understood it.

Used in a science club. Pupils use flame tests, footprint impressions, fingerprint analysis and blood spatter analysis and looking at suspect profiles to solve the crime of 'who killed Santa?'. A 'how to' guide is included and the written based resources are included. Some resources will need to be made in addition (i.e. taking of finger prints, flame tests and making foot print impressions). Takes about an hour to do, pupils come up with some really inventive stuff!

This is a worksheet to guide students through making a soluble salt (copper sulfate) using copper oxide and sulphuric acid. It contains a step by step guide with pictures, safety concerns, questions about reasons for each step of the practical and extension questions for higher tier.

This resource was designed for a top set class to research as part of a stretch and challenge FLIP learning homework. It was set over the October half term to research before we studied the unit in class. It is based around the OCR 21st Century SOW - topic C3 - linking in fractional distillation, cracking, covalent bonding and comparing biofuels to crude oil (which requires them to recap work from C1). It comprises 4 x 6 mark questions that are based around a small amount of data given at the beginning of the question. I have also included a marking proforma that can be used to mark the work they hand in, which lists the criteria using a level based mark scheme. This would also work well as a revision resource after having studied the topic.

Adapted from OCR 21st Century Scheme of Work. Data taken from Southend and London about pollution levels and questions about the data.

A worksheet to guide through acids and bases details, and a set of questions for students. Aimed at higher tier.

A summary page on everything to know about structure and bonding at GCSE. Plus a series of practice questions to help students apply their knowledge.

A 2 sheet summary about Group 7 relevent to A-level. Covering the reactions of chlorine, reducing power of halides and formation of precipitates with silver nitrate.

A quick power point I made to explain good exam technique to pupils. Makes for a good starter, show them the 3 possible answers for an exam Q. Using mini white boards, ask them to pick the correct answer and write why they chose it. Then go through what the correct answer is and why.

The card sort is double up onto the one page (2 to a page). Just print out and cut out!

I used this data to give to differentiated groups. The groups had to plot the graph and then make a presentation explaining the difference between cause and correlation using the graphs.

A small A5 sheet (differentiated) to help pupils write their aims and methods in science lessons. Worked particularly well when the year 7s started writing up their practicals for the first time. It also has a level guide on it, for pupils (and teachers) to follow.

Great revision activity. Every pupil has a card with an answer and question. Someone reads out a question, then who ever thinks they have the answer reads it out. If it's correct they then read out the question they have on their card. If you have a small class, pupils can have more than one card each.
