Structure of the Earth construction and research task. (approx 3-4 hours of lesson time, less if construction is set for home work.) Task 1: Independent task: Worksheet to guide students through researching the structure of the Earth, using text books or ICT equipment. Originally designed for OCR Gateway science B and is graded using the specification. Double sided worksheet. Task 2: Modelling task: Students design and build their own model to demonstrate the structure of the Earth and continental drift theory. Double sided worksheet is structured so that students can: 1. Plan how they will construct their model, materials used and how it helps explain the science. 2. Self evaluate - guided with questions. 3. Peer evaluation following presentation of the model to another group -3 x What went well and 2 x Even Better if which students can then act on. 4. Reflection on what other groups models have taught them.

Independent research task for students (use alongside a text book or ICT equipment) to complete extended answer questions about Carbon Nanotubes and Buckminsterfullerene. Worksheet originally designed for students entered for higher paper of OCR Gateway additional science B / Chemistry B and is graded according to this specification.

Worksheet designed for Environmental and Land Based Science (OCR) Scaffolded worksheet for students to consolidate knowledge of different types of weed control, bioaccumulation and factors that must be considered before choosing a type of weed control. Works well as a summary activity after practical work, as revision or homework.

Worksheet originally designed for Environmental and Land Based Sciences GCSE (OCR) Independent research worksheet to summarise alternative energy resources, including different biofuels. Works well in class alongside textbook/ICT, as a revision activity or homework to consolidate learning.

Worksheet designed for Environmental and Land Based Science (OCR) Worksheet to consolidate knowledge of use of large machines in land based sector. Works well as a revision exercise, homework or alongside textbook/ICT equipment for independent learning in the classroom.

Worksheet to go alongside calorimetry experiment comparing energy per gram of fuel for different length hydrocarbons. Work is scaffolded for students to discuss control variables and hard to control variables, which acts as good practice for controlled assessments. Following completion of a calorimetry practical students calculate energy transferred and energy per gram using the key equations plus rearrangement of equations. Students are extended through link to exothermic energy profiles. Designed for students entered into higher exam for OCR Gateway Additional Science B / OCR Gateway Chemistry B, and is graded according to specification.

Scaffolded worksheet for students to summarise knowledge of collision theory, record results from rate experiment, write a conclusion and have this peer assessed. Worksheet goes alongside reaction between sodium thiocyanate and Hydrochloric acid as per the RSC classic chemistry experiment found at http://www.rsc.org/learn-chemistry/resource/res00000448/the-effect-of-temperature-on-reaction-rate?cmpid=CMP00000518 Some safety considerations are given on the worksheet for students to be aware of but please thoroughly risk assess before carrying out this practical with a class.

Double sided worksheet for students to record the equipment used, their observations and scientific explanations when they carry out 2 reactions: 1. Displacement of copper from copper oxide, using carbon. 2. Purification of copper by electrolysis. Originally designed for OCR gateway science B and is graded using this specification. (grades C-A*). As both reactions take time it is worth students setting up their practicals and completing the worksheet tasks as the experiments run.

A simple quiz designed for P1 - energy in the home (OCR gateway). Useful for revision lessons/homework.

Worksheet to go alongside a halogen displacement practical, space for students to research properties, record results, order the halogens by reactivity plus write word and symbol equations and explain reactivity in terms of atomic structure.

Scaffolded worksheet for students to independently research atomic structure and isotopes. Initially designed for OCR Gateway Additional Science - C4. Use alongside a text book or ICT equipment. Learning Objectives: 1. Describe the structure of the atom. 2. Calculate the number of protons, neutrons and electrons from the atomic number and mass number of an element.

Worksheet to guide students through effective planning of a scientific investigation.

Worksheet to go alongside a practical to investigate the reaction between metals and acids. Designed for year 8 students, differentiated throughout to stretch the most able. Worksheet is scaffolded so that students can: 1. Risk assess their practical including control measures and an evaluation of how well risks were managed. 2. Identify and explain control variables. 3. Record observations. 4. Use results to order metals according to reactivity. 5. Write word and symbol equations for reactions between metals and acids.

Worksheet with circus activity for students to identify evidence for when a chemical reaction takes place. Differentiated and scaffolded through out for students to explain what a chemical reaction is in terms of products and reactants, plus word and symbol equations for simple chemical reactions.

Revision resource for topic 4.2 - Bonding, Structure and the Properties of Matter for AQA GCSE Chemistry (teaching from 2016), designed using the specification. Students could complete with their notes, a text book or ICT equipment. Works well as a homework or in class using 2 colours of pen to show areas that they already know and didn't need to look up the answer for and another for areas they had to research. Best printed A3 size.
