My year 11s have found these benefical.
Elements and compounds KS3
Elements, compounds and mixtures- Some resources are from other areas on TES
Targeted at year 8 mixed ability class.
Starter: 5 minutes timed activity, challenege to see how many words students can make from the periodic table
Main: Go over definitons of elements/compounds/mixtures.
Then use these definitons to identify which particle pictures are elements/compounds
Go over rules of particle diagrams, then a choice of higher or lower ability sheet.
Higher ability sheet: students need to draw particle diagrams
lower ability sheet: students need to identify the correct particle picture
Extension: Worksheet, including tasks such as identifying elements, a fill in the gaps activity, 6 mark practicce question to explain the difference between elements/compounds/mictures
Plenary: Break the code using the periodic tab;e
Filtering and evaporation KS3
Aimed at mixed ability year 8 - Some resources from TES
L1 - Starter: thinking about what sea water contains
Main: Think pair, share how to separate sea water
introduce key words
write a method/risk assessment for practical
Plenary: particle diagram of what happens during filtering
L2 - Main label equiptment in the diagrams and mark
Main: complete rock salt practical
Differntiated bronze/gold worksheets for students to work their way through
Plenary: one thing students learnt today
Marking sticker provided for the practical, if you wish to level the students work
Dissolving KS3
Aimed at mixed ability year 8 class
Starter: Add key terms to diagram, using key words for the lesson
Main: Define key words and explain solubility
Practical: see if different compounds are soluble or not
Then draw particle pictures of what happens when a substance is dissolving
Plenary: Tweet one thing students learnt today
Fractional distillation KS3
Aimed at a mixed ability year 8 class
Starter: work out the link between the pictures
Main: Explain what crude oil is and what fractional distillation is
Watch video, answer questions, green pen mark questions
Complete level 1/2/3 worksheets explaining fractional distillation
Extension: research task linking SMSC and crude oil
Plenary: What problems would we encounter if we banned all crude oil now
Melting points KS3
Aimed at mixed ability year 8 class
Starter: which chocolate do you think is the most pure?
Main: explain what is meant by pure
carry out a practical to melt different chocolates to work out which is most pure and how we know that
plenary: questions to evaluate the practical
Chromatography KS3
Aimed at a mixed ability year 8 class
Starter: summaries what separation techniques students have learnt about so far
Main: Define and explain chromatography
Show students a chromatogram and discuss what we can learn from it
Practical: carry out an investigation to see who wrote the note, work sheet to complete whilst chromatogram is developing
Extension: What effect does each mistake make
Plenary: Exam question
Solubility at different temperatures KS3
Aimed at mixed ability year 8 class
Starter: Write a hypothesis for what students think will happen to the amount of a solute that can dissolve as temperature increases
