Spec 1.1.7 Electronic structure – One hour of teaching Lesson(s) preparation: Could print the questions on slide 11 Rationale: There is plenty of recap at the start of this lesson as not a huge amount of content or practice is required for this topic. Suggested teaching: Slides 1–2: Typical retrieval style questions to start the lesson as you will have seen in these PowerPoints. Slides 3-4: A Recap of calculating numbers of sub-atomic particles. Avoid letting them take notes here, the information is there to reduce cognitive load so they are just applying. Slides 5-6: A Recap of calculating relative atomic mass, again no notes required. Slide 8: Introduction to how electrons fill shells. You may want to do a couple of example here, or some questioning to check understanding. Slide 9-10: Practice of representing electronic configurations. Slide 11-12: Some typical exam questions

Spec 1.2.5 The alkali metals (Two hours suggested teaching time) Lesson preparation: [Demonstration] The physical properties and reactions of the alkali metals Could print the table on slide 11 Could print the exam questions on slide 21 Suggested teaching: Lesson 1: Slides 2-4: Retrieval practice starter (slide 4 is an optional and differentiated alternative starter). Slide 5-6: Recap of forming ions with a focus on the group 1 elements. Slides 7-8: (Hidden) Alternative recap, potentially for lower ability students on electron configurations. Slide 9-11: Here you can demonstrate the properties and reactions of the alkali metals. If materials are unavailable, students could compare the animations of the reactions on slide 10. There is a table on slide 11 to record their observations. Lesson 2: Slides 12-14: Retrieval practice starter (slide 4 is an optional and differentiated alternative starter). Slides 15-16: A recap of the observations and reactions of the alkali metals. Slides 17-20: Explaining the reactivity of the alkali metals, with a selection of differentiated slides to help. Slides 21-22: Practice exam style questions.

Spec 2.4 The Noble Gases (One hour suggested teaching time) Lesson preparation: Could print slide 13 which has a pre-drawn graph axis and some exam style questions Rationale: Discussing the noble gases gives rise to opportunities for revisiting earlier content and graphical skills. Suggested teaching: Slides 2-4: Retrieval practice starter (slide 4 is an optional and differentiated alternative starter). Slide 5: An opportunity to revisit electron configurations and the periodic table in the context of the noble gases. Slide 7 : A really old classic video demonstrating the different densities of the noble gases. You could ask students to predict before watching the video. Slide 8: Opportunity to plot and describe the trend of a graph, whilst covering important understanding. Slides 10: A pretty silly but interesting video where someone breathes in the noble gases in-turn. Slide 11: Practice questions

Spec 2.3 Metals and non-metals (One hour suggested teaching time) Lesson(s) preparation: [Practical] – Investigating properties of materials (Circuit with bulb and crocodile clips, glass rod, iron nail, copper strip, piece of wood, Perspex trip, piece of ceramic etc…) Could print slides 6, 7, 18 & 18 Rationale: Often the comparison of metals and non-metals is overlooked. I like to get students to identify the difference in properties and then apply the properties to unknowns. Here they should notice that general properties don’t always apply to all. Suggested teaching: Slides 2-4: Retrieval practice starter (slide 4 is optional differentiated) Slide 5: A general introduction to the idea of metals and non-metal and the key properties. Slide 6: Practical (no method given as it is fairly straightforward). Get them to identify the properties of different materials in the room, depending on ability they may need support in identifying them as metals or non-metals. Slides 7-8: Summarising the properties of metals and non-metals. Slides 9-10: Applying properties of metals and non-metals, they will need to apply a best fit approach for some of them (like mercury and graphite!) Slides 11-15: Introduction of how metals and non-metals form ions when they react.

Spec 2.1-2 The development of the periodic table (Two hours suggested teaching time) Lesson(s) preparation: Print the shapes on slide 14 (two sets per A4 page) Print the Mendeleev periodic tables on slide 18 Print the modern periodic tables on slide 29 Could print the exam questions on slide 30 Rationale: I prefer to start with the development of the periodic table and them finishing off with how it stands today. This takes student through a story of how we have got to where we are. Suggested teaching: Lesson 1 (Slides 2-21) Slides 5-10: I like to tell a story about the important chemists to start the lesson, information is in the comments. Slides 11-12: Taking information from a silly video, an interesting introduction to the elements. Slides 13-14: Students are encourage to organise shapes into categories. There are missing shapes, so they should be questioned on their organisation, drawing on the idea that they need to leave gaps to make it work, they should then predict the appearance of their missing shapes – like Mendeleev! Slide 16: Video – Jim Al Khalili, this shows them the similarities to the task they just completed and what Mendeleev achieved. Slides 17-21: Here student’s are encouraged to draw comparisons between Mendeleev Periodic table and the modern periodic table. Lessons 2 (Slides 22-32) Slide 25: An opportunity to look at the modern periodic table, but with the undiscovered elements missing. Slides 26-28: An opportunity to summarise the modern periodic table

A Sheet I made to support students through writing mechanisms for Organic reactions. Includes example and hints for: Nucleophilic substitution Electrophilic addition Nucleophillic addition Electrophilic substitution I provide this laminated for students in lessons whilst having them attempt multiple examples in different situations.

This organic reaction map is designed to help students learn the reactions and conditions to required to convert between different functional groups in the AQA A level course. There are four possible sheets (with increasing information): Sheet one - Just the different functional groups and their conversions. Sheet two - Includes sheet one + the displayed formulas of the molecules Sheet three - Includes sheet two + the types of reactions Sheet four - Includes sheet three + the reagents and conditions required for each. The different sheets allow different levels of scaffolding for the pupils in your class or the final sheet may just be provided as a summary sheet for revision purposes.

PowerPoint presentation for topics within the Atomic Structure [3.1.1] Included is this pack is: 3.1.1.3 Electron configurations and ionisation energy These presentations include*: - Slides that have been created from scratch by an experienced A-Level teacher. - Up-to-date information for the new course based on the specification and exam paper questions. - Key points, common errors and definitions. - Detailed theory, designed, on occasion to go beyond the specification to stretch the most able. - Worked examples, practice questions, exam-style questions and animated diagrams. - Slides that are mostly designed to minimise the amount of printing required in lessons. *Not every presentation will necessarily include all of the above, however across the entire course of presentations this is what to expect. Check back for updates as I continue to teach the course, the resource will always improve.

Included is: A full booklet with explanations, strategically placed questions and worked examples (ideal as a guide for a teacher or independent learning). A booklet of just the questions (ideal to supplement lessons). A booklet with the answers.

This booklet contains a thorough worked example through the steps to determining the structure of an organic compound. The steps included are : Elemental analysis (to determine empirical formula) Mass spec (to determine molecular formula) Calculating double bond equivalents (often overlooked at A-Level, but very useful). IR and chemical tests to determine functional groups present. NMR problem solving to determine overall structure. The worked example is in table format, with a guide and model response. There are 5 practice problems with answers. I have used it to teach AQA and OCR A, but it probably works with all exam boards.
