Predominately a Chemistry teacher, although I dabble with Biology and Physics too. Most of my schemes of work were planned for either AQA or iGCSE schemes of work at KS4 and the IB at KS5 (although I have no official affiliation with the IB)

Hand-warmers independent project - linking Science with Business and Enterprise

(0)
This 2 week KS3 scheme of work was designed to take 4x100 minute lessons. The aim of the project is to guide students to research, test, ´market´ and evaluate their own handwarmer. The lessons are broken down as follows: Lesson 1 - Research and Planning Lesson 2 - Testing hand-warmer options Lesson 3 - Product Design Lesson 4 - Pitching the design to peers and evaluation Originally designed to link Science with Business and Enterprise, it could also be used to encourage the use of transferable skills in science, and would make an independent and interactive ´end of year´ activity.

Flame Testing Investigation

Flame Testing Investigation

(0)
This lesson was planned as a stand alone investigation lesson for KS3, designed to allow students to work on their practical skills. When observed it got an ´Outstanding´ (for what it is worth), and I have attached the lesson plan. It involves a ´poisoning´ scenario where students are asked to identify an unknown powder used to poison someone. Students are asked to choose the equipment that they will use, test some named powders and use this to identify the unknown powder. They are then asked to write a letter to a detective (using a level ladder as a guide) explaining how they identified a poison. They should then peer assess against the level ladder.
