This is a free sample of the Relative Atomic Mass calculations. I have made a range of resources for the calculations that AQA GCSE students will be expected to complete for the new Chemistry specification (8462). The resources packs contain 1. Powerpoint showing the keystages/background information on the calculation. 2. Word document worksheet with some questions for the students to attempt, whenever possible these are based on exam questions. 3. WMV video clip this format is playable in most programs, such as RealPlayer, MPlayer, Windows Media Player, and the VLC Media Player. The video clip goes through the stages of the calculations on the worksheet, this is extremely useful for students (and teachers) who are struggling to see where the answer comes from. 4. Word document containing just the answers. There are a total of 3 resource packs for the relative atomic mass calculations. This is Resource pack 1 and it is free. If you find Resource Pack 1 helpful and want more of the same the rest of the resource packs can be purchased from TES at: 1. https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/chemical-calculations-relative-atomic-mass-1-free-sample-11353809 2. https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/chemical-calculations-relative-atomic-mass-2-11353972 3 https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/chemical-calculations-relative-atomic-mass-3-11354416 I have also made a bundle which is available for a reduced price containing all of the resource pack for this type of calculation. This is available to purchase at https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/chemical-calculations-relative-atomic-mass-bundle-11354433

If you’re new to eLearning then please check out my guide to starting out on www.edmodo.com Edmodo is a a really useful online resources which is easy to access and use, I’ve been using it since 2011 and have found it to be an invaluable tool.

I always call my students minions of science, and as such I thought I'd welcome my new classes with a PowerPoint featuring Minions from Despicable Me! This PowerPoint lists the systems, sanctions and expectations I have in the classroom. It also features Ahmed the puppet!

This is the second lesson in the topic ‘The Environment and the Atmosphere’ In the previous lesson I discussed some theories of what the Earth and its atmosphere may have been like in the past, in this lesson we look at the evidence that has been used to prove this, and look at jobs in science too! This lesson is delivered over YouTube but has some accompanying resources. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JJoDCG4FiHY&list=PLRQqpdTTanY_8L_9hEq5CnpU_rNoacQlP&index=4&t=0s The review of work set in this lesson can be found at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U1ode5Hm10s&list=PLRQqpdTTanY_8L_9hEq5CnpU_rNoacQlP&index=4 Links mentioned in the video can all be found at https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLRQqpdTTanY9a1um-_1ywZdkmIWre0xJ2 I teach the AQA GCSE Chemistry course, including both double (8464) and triple (8462) award, and as such most of these resources will be specific to that course, however they may also be useful for other specifications.

This is the full resource pack for an assessment for KS4 students who are studying pollution, combustion, the impact of fossil fuels, carbon dioxide and the carbon cycle. This resource pack comes with several parts; 1. PowerPoint presentation to introduce the task. 2. Word document printout for the students to stick in their books. 3. Word document printout with a level ladder on so that the students can self/peer assess the work, there is also a column so the teacher can tick off the achieved criteria. 4. Word document containing a mark scheme. 5. Excel spreadsheet that can be used to automatically generate extended written feedback including improvement strategies for the teacher to give the students. A guide on how to use this resource can be freely accessed at https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/the-automarker-11191496 6. Word document printout writing frame to assist students who may benefit from additional help with this task. 7. jpeg image showing a hand-drawn version of the carbon cycle which has been inserted into the powerpoint, but may also be useful for students who aren’t confident in laying out their work. This is based on an old AQA Chemistry Exam Paper. This task is good for training students to answer long questions i.e. 6 mark questions at GCSE. This task is suitable for students at Grade E-A*, however I have removed these grades so that you can use the old or new grading system…

Last lesson we looked at the carbon cycle i.e. how carbon is reused and recycled in our atmosphere and planet. In this lesson we will learn about Greenhouses Gases and where they come from.
