This pack includes: Complete lesson pack about each of the chromatography practical tasks (with methods included) Results tables for each of the practical tasks A write-up guidance sheet for students when they are writing their coursework for this unit 2 feedback sheets to give students personalised feedback on their coursework progress

This download contains some pre-made Frayer models which can be used in Science lessons in KS3 and KS4, along with suggested answer documents. Frayer models are becoming increasingly popular to use in schools to support students’ understanding of scientific keywords as well as their general vocabulary. I have also included a blank Frayer model template in this download, which can be easily edited, to allow you to start creating some of your own! The keywords included within each Frayer model are: Aerobic respiration Anaerobic respiration Chemical reaction Conduction Convection Radiation Unicellular Protoctist Frequency Skeleton Drug

This download contains a Word document and a PowerPoint presentation which would be an ideal form time task for younger secondary school students (KS3) as a self-affirmation activity. Students are asked to give three things that they like about themselves, three things that they are good at, and then three things that they would like to tell their older selves. These sheets could then be given back to them later in the school (e.g. Year 11) and they will be able to compare their answers in the future, as well as receive a short message from their younger selves. The accompanying PowerPoint slides gives the definition of affirmation and some examples of statements for each section, but the task should be as independent as possible, with students coming up with their own ideas.
