A PowerPoint that explains how radioactive decay equations are formed for both alpha and beta decay. There are two worksheets, one that covers points within the slide, and another that gets students to write the decay chain for uranium-238. Both worksheets include answers. Prior knowledge: students are expected to know about alpha and beta decay, however, there are hints and pointers within the PowerPoint to remind students.

A differentiated resource for producing a labelled diagram of a myelinated neuron. There are two main versions of this activity, but both of them require the information cards. These can be printed out and placed around the room. The first version is an all in one A4 sheet that has the diagram and labels that can be cut out and stuck on. This is better suited to lower ability students, they can find out where the parts are by looking at the information around the room. The second version requires the diagram with no labels. Students have to collect the information from around the room and write it on their diagram. I run this as a memory game, giving students two rules: they can only write on their diagram at their desk, and they cannot move the information sheets.

This is a card sort to help students learn words for feelings/emotions (20 words in total). This would be a useful task with younger groups or low ability groups. There are three separate files, depending on how you want to present the task. - The 'teacher copy' shows a grid with all items already matched. - The 'student version' is a random layout, print this out and give to students. They can then cut out the items and match them, or stick them into their workbooks. - The 'quick cut' is designed so that you can produce 10 packs of cards quickly and easily using a guillotine. Each page has the same card 10 times over. This allows you to remove words that may not be suitable or needed. Alternatively you can print the same page twice double-sided to produce flash cards.

This resource features a 35 slide PowerPoint and two worksheets with answer sets for the naming of geometric isomers of alkenes. The PowerPoint gives a step-by-step approach to IUPAC nomenclature for geomtric isomers of alkenes with a worksheet consolidating these ideas. Our aim for teaching resources is to make them clear and logical. We follow an ethos of keeping PowerPoint designs simple, with small chunks of information, that ensures students are not overwhelmed with information.

This is a pack of 32 information cards for various events, people, probes, and animals involved in the space race between the USSR and USA. They cover the events from the initial proposal of the space race up to the first manned Moon landing. There is an introductory PowerPoint to give students an overview, then the main task of creating the timeline. I would get students to create their timelines on either A3 paper, or two A4 pieces stuck together in landscape. You can also print out several packs of cards and get students to arrange them in historical order prior to starting their timeline. I would also suggest that rather than just writing the information down, students could also sketch a diagram or picture to represent various events. You could even turn it into a competition to see who can make the best poster/timeline and display the winner on notice boards (or give various awards). This task is perfect for when you don't have access to ICT facilities, or you have lower ability groups who struggle with finding the correct information. It is also perfect for groups you cannot trust to be sensible with ICT facilities.

Here are levelled questions for all topics in the OCR Gateway C6 module. They have been taken from the student book and presented in an easy to use manner, with an included answer document. These are ideal for a home work or plenary. Each file has been set out to maximise the number of question sheets on an A4 piece of paper. Some have fonts large enough to be printed two to a page, should you have limits on printing. If you notice any typos please leave a comment telling me which file and I'll correct and update it.
