This is the third lesson in the Halogens topic 3.1.3 in the OCR Specification. The powerpoint covers what disproportionation means, reactions of chlorine in water and the ethical uses of chlorine in water. There is an exam question and mark scheme to assess learning but there is also a literacy based task with articles from Greenpeace and WHO to compare the ethical uses of chlorine in water.

This assessment booklet follows the new AQA A Level Chemistry specification 3.1.11 This can be used as either a homework booklet to accompany the topic or set as an end of topic assessment booklet. I used it as a homework booklet and it comes with a front cover sheet with room for www and ebi comments and mark scheme. Extra exam questions have also been uploaded for this topic as well.

This is the first lesson in the Electrons, bonding and structure topic in Module 2 - Foundations in Chemistry. The powerpoint is long and will probably take 2-3 lessons based on the ability of the class! It covers GCSE concept of electron shells compared to sub-levels, orbitals, rules for filling, short hand configurations and deciding on the blocks in the periodic table. I have included my tip on how to best illustrate energy levels, sub-levels and orbitals in a diagram drawn on the board if you check the notes at the bottom of the slide!

This is lesson 5 and 6 in the Electrons, bonding and structure topic in Module 2 - Foundations in Chemistry. There is enough content here to easily last 2-4 lessons depending on the ability of the class! The powerpoint starts off with a bonding pop quiz to test their recall of drawing shapes, names and bond angles then goes onto electronegativity, polar and non polar bonds. The following lesson then covers London forces, permanent dipole-dipole and hydrogen bonding and applying this to properties of water. There is also an AfL task which I set the students at the end to consolidate their understanding of intermolecular forces and looking at case studies of iodine, water and DNA.

This bundle of resources covers: 3.1.1 Periodicity 3.1.2 Group 2 3.1.3 The Halogens 3.1.4 Qualitative Analysis The resource includes powerpoints for every lesson, practical activities including teacher/technician sheets, exam questions, mark schemes as well as the homework booklet and mark scheme covering these topics. I hand out the homework booklet at the start of the topic (e.g. start of Periodicity) and collect it in at the end of the topic (Qualitative Analysis). The questions have been typed up from inside the OCR textbook as no electronic copy was available. We use SOLO symbols to differentiate between different levels of progress. Please let me know any feedback or improvements. More units to follow!

Third topic in Module 2 - Foundations in Chemistry. All lessons fully resourced with powerpoints, worksheets progress sheet of the whole topic, PAG worksheets, multiple choice assessment and homework booklet with markscheme. I hand out the homework booklets at the start of every topic and collect in at the end to mark using www and ebi. The homework booklet questions have been sourced from the end of Chapter questions within the OCR textbook and typed up as no electronic copy was available. The mark scheme corresponds to the OCR pages in the textbook as well. This is the whole topic for Acids and Redox fully resourced 2.1.4-2.1.5 according to the OCR Specification. I have included the 10 for 10 (10 qs in 10 mins) which is a multiple choice summative assessment I used after I taught 2.1.1-2.1.5 to get the students used to multiple choice questions and assess their progress. The answers are at the back of the test. SOLO symbols are used to differentiate between tasks. Hope you find it useful and please let me know of any suggestions or improvements. More topics to follow!

This is the first lesson in the second topic The Amount of Substance in Module 2 - Foundations in Chemistry. The powerpoint covers Avogadro's constant, the mole, molar mass and re-arranging the molar mass equation. The activity is a good task to get students to understand what a mole is in terms of the number of atoms in your signature. The worksheets help introduce standard form and sig fig if needed to practice Maths skills as well as practicing re-arranging the molar mass equation.

This is a lesson covering Group 2 elements, 3.1.2 in the OCR specification. The powerpoint includes physical and chemical trends of group 2 metals. There is also a practical sheet which covers reactions of group 2 oxides, hydroxides and thermal decomposition of group 2 carbonates.

This lesson introduces the key ideas of Acyl Chlorides and will cover one lesson's worth of content. The powerpoint covers: IUPAC rules for naming acyl chlorides The 4 different reaction processes that acyl chlorides undergo. The products and reactants needed for the 4 different acyl chloride reactions The reaction mechanism for Acyl Chlorides is not covered in this single lesson powerpoint but another resource. This lesson is based on the New AQA A Level Chemistry specification.

This is lesson 4 in the Electrons, bonding and structure topic in Module 2 - Foundations in Chemistry. The powerpoint covers bonding pairs vs lone pairs repulsion, drawing simple shapes and a rule list for helping determine how many LP and BP and therefore what shape is produced. It also goes onto multiple bonds. I encourage the use of molymod kits for this lesson too, which helps with the 3D aspect of bonding.

First lesson I use as an introduction to A Level Chemistry as part of Module 2 - Foundations of Chemistry. It is a great group based lesson to encourage discussion about recapping ideas from GCSE including: Labelling an atom Atomic numbers Numbers of sub-atomic particles in atoms and ions Isotopes

This is the fifth lesson in the Amount of Substance topic in Module 2 - Foundations in Chemistry. The powerpoint covers calculating concentration review and mass concentrations and then goes onto how to read from a burette and my titration top tips! The students then have to perform a titration and try and get concordant results in order to calculate the concentration of hydrochloric acid using a standard solution of sodium hydrogen carbonate. There are questions on the practical sheet which structures the calculations with model answers on the teacher sheet.

There are 4 lessons here covering the whole The Halogens, 3.1.3 in the OCR specification. Lesson 1 covers - Physical trends of the Halogens and displacement reactions. There is a teacher and student practical sheet included. Lesson 2 covers - Halide ion tests including a teacher and practical sheet. Lesson 3 covers - Disporportionation and the uses of chlorine including an ethical discussion using greenpeace and WHO articles for a literacy task. Lesson 4 - PAG 4.2 Teacher and student worksheets

These are two lessons covering 3.1.1 from the OCR specification on Periodicity. The first powerpoint covers Ionisation energies, equations, factors affecting ionisation energies and lots of graph and trend interpretation exam questions throughout. The second lesson is an AfL task which I set to compare the properties of diamond, graphite, silicon dioxide and graphite. An information sheet is provided to help with diamond and graphite information. I set this task as a homework/in class task to include watching a TED clip on graphene.
