A lesson on using graphs to find the rate of reaction with accompanying assessment questions and answers

A fully resourced lesson (potentially 2) to teach pupils through experiment and demo, how to test for oxygen, hydrogen, carbon dioxide and chlorine. A video is also linked to the presentation

An introductory lesson on organic chemistry. Pupils are reminded of separation techniques used to separate mixtures and the definition of a mixture before the idea of crude oil as a mixture that needs to be separated to make it useful is introduced

A presentation and worksheet guiding pupils through identification of the ions responsible for acidity and alkalinity and the ionic equations to describe the formation of water during neutralisation reactions. Neutralisation equations are also consider along with salt formation

A presentation to take students through the theory of density. The presentation also walks pupils through the techniques needed to calculate density for regular and irregular solids and liquids. An adapted version of the AQA required Practical worksheet has also been included. There is a set of differentiated questions on density calculations and theory to challenge students - the calculation answers are on the presentation.

Stoichiometry pathway to help pupils with calculations in chemistry. The presentation also covers the topic of molar gas volume.

This lesson links to the new AQA physics / Trilogy GCSE. The resources give pupils the opportunity to use graphs to carry out data analysis and make conclusion from the data they find. The data is linked to domestic and global energy demands and the energy resources we use to provide these needs. One of the tasks includes a group activity where pupils need to present their findings. There is a starter to summarise environmental issues linked to use of fossil Fuels. The lesson also includes how fossil fuel and nuclear power stations generate electricity where pupils complete a sequencing activity.

A presentation and a couple of worksheets to guide students through the concept of electrolysis of molten ionic compounds. The presentation reminds pupils of OIL RIG and the electrical conductivity of ionic compounds before tackling the more challenging aspects of the topic

A presentation and worksheet about climate change and how it link to global warming. The presentation has an embedded video and various activites

A summary of energy transfers for the physics P1 content - this summary is suitable for medium to low ability students. I have used this printed on A3 paper and it has kept students engaged for an extended time trying to fit in all the answers

A fully resourced lesson on Predator Prey Cycles - linked to the new AQA 2016 syllabus. The lesson contains a graph plotting activity and various other activities on the presentation. Enough for more than one lesson of you can pick the activities that suit you best. I have included 2 version of the PowerPoint for those who have older versions that don't support some of the newer fonts

A lesson with a quick on the draw activity. A video in embedded in the presentation and information sheets are provided as a reference source to find the answers to the activity. This is the second lesson in a series, but can be taught stand alone

An introductory lesson in a series of 4 for the C5 topic - Energy Changes. The concept of exothermic and endothermic reactions is introduced with an engaging practical. The presentation discusses the idea of conservation of energy and reactions converting heat and chemical energy. The lesson is fully resourced

A presentation about the reactivity of metals with water, introducing the concept of reduction and oxidation in terms of oxygen

How much do we depend on the Earth’s natural resources? - A presentation that poses this question and then gets pupils to interpret graphs. Key terms and ideas are discussed

A fully resourced lesson about the properties of solids, liquids and gases and how the strength of the bonding influences properties

Get as many samples of elements as possible and use to introduce the idea that there are different elements and how they differ. A presentation and accompanying worksheets are included. Test tubes of air can be labelled as gases etc. If needed

A presentation of different Optical Illusions - Just for the fun of it!
