**Updated April 2021** various fixes as requested
**Updated April 2018** Now includes assessments for both combined science and triple.
**Updated July 2016** Now includes foundation friendly lesson on covalent bonding and giant covalent structures, and identify the errors covalent bonding worksheet, where you can draw bad dot-cross diagrams and get the students to fix them.
In this pack, you will find lesson powerpoints, worksheet and homeworks for the new AQA Combined Science Trilogy: Chemistry specification - Unit 2: Structure, bonding and the properties of matter.
Like my other resources, this will be updated regularly as lessons are developed and improved upon over time.
Please note: I have decided to remove "polymers" from this unit, as it lends itself better to unit 7 - organic chemistry. I have also integrated states 'states of matter' and 'state symbols' into the lessons as they don't really deserve their own lessons by year 9/10.
I have also included a level differentiated progression of learning map (levels 9-1) for the key skills I try to embed in my classes for students of different working levels. This is very useful for planning assessments too!
I hope you enjoy, and find these resources useful, as always I look forward to hearing your feedback.
You will find the following lessons in this pack:

Good resources. The tasks associated with explaining Ionic bonding aren't present in the bundle.
Some of the most helpful GCSE Chemistry resources I have found
Excellent as always! May I asked why you removed the content on polymers? I think it it still a part of the current Spec
I can't find anything on diamond, graphite, and fullerenes in your bundle? Do you have a power points including those topics also anything on nanoparticles?
Since discovering Lewistull's resources i now spend 80% less time preparing for GCSE chemistry classes. If only he'd prepare biology resources too.....please?
