My resources now cover the whole of OCR AS Chemistry.
Each download includes a list of all available lessons and bundles.
This bundle covers all of the OCR A level chemistry specification section 2.2.1. (electron structure) and part of 2.1.2. (bonding and structure)
Resources included are:
• Electron configuration – shells, sub-shells and orbitals
• Ionic bonding
• Covalent bonding
• Shapes of molecules and ions

Each topic includes a fully interactive PowerPoint including starter, group activities, questions and plenary along with a worksheet. Answers to all exercises are provided. Three of the resources include a PowerPoint quiz and all are ideal for classroom or home learning.

This bundle is part of a series covering the OCR AS Chemistry specification and relates to the following sections:
Module 2 – Foundations in chemistry
Part 2 – Electrons, bonding and structure
2.2.1 - Electron structure
2.2.2 – Bonding and structure (part)

Please review!

I am new to teaching A-Level Chemistry and will certainly use any resources you have, when I can. I am currently teaching structure and bonding. Then i'm onto organic synthesis.
