Worksheet designed for low ability students but could also be used as a shorter revision activity for other students. This worksheet helps students to recall the test and result for alkenes using Bromine water - which can be demonstrated for students. It also requires the use of molecular models to help students visualise the addition reaction that takes place when bromine reacts with an alkene and to model the different alkenes.

Method cards for food tests: fats, protein, sugars and starch. Higher and lower worksheets for students to record the method for each test plus the outcome of carrying out each test.

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.

Scaffolded independent research worksheet designed for P4h - Fission and Fusion (OCR gateway), graded throughout. Students could complete tasks on worksheet using text books or ICT resources, or is also useful as a revision activity.

Designed for new Year 7 curriculum to go alongside demonstrations of lung dissection and using the bell jar and balloons model to represent the breathing system. Worksheet give students opportunity to consolidate their knowledge and could be used alongside a text book for more independent work.

Revision sheet for Environmental and Land Based Science GCSE (OCR) for unit B682 - Animal Care. Provided as PDF and MS word format that can be edited. A good tool for independent revision, can be used with or without notes. I have found this works well to highlight gaps in knowledge, with students using 2 coloured pens to show areas they had to look up the answer to. Revision mind map covers the following areas: - Food Stuffs - Feeding - Digestion - Digestive Systems - Animal Diet - Breeding - Animal Housing - Castration and Spaying

Worksheets designed for Year 8 Scheme of learning, Low-mid ability students; Approximately 2 hours of lesson time. Scaffold for students to complete an entire investigation into the effectiveness of different brands of antacid tablets using acid and universal indicator to show change in pH. Worksheet includes; 1. List of apparatus with space to explain why each piece is used. 2. Space for a method and control variables. 3. Results table for students to record start and end pH, change in pH and time taken for change. 4. Separate worksheet with pre-plotted axes for students to plot bar charts of their results. 5. Conclusion and Evaluation is structured using sentence starters to guide students to use data from their 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.

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.
