The resources I produce are intended to be universal and sustainable and can be picked up by a teacher at any level of experience. Each lesson has been tweaked over years of experience teaching at a sixth form college. Students have enjoyed the lessons and achieved amazing results. All of my powerpoints have a colour scheme, bold imagery and the same font throughout - because style is important!
I hope that these resources will save you time and make teaching more fun.

This is a full scheme of work for Carbon that I have used for four years with great success. I have edited improved it during that time. It includes model answers that I have written and some fun tasks to motivate students.
The slides are stimulating and the lessons cover a variety of skills including interpretation of data and graphs.
There is a strong focus on exam question practise and knowledge retention.
The homework set for students will be based on revision for class quizzes (which you can run as a competition) and also longer written answers to exam questions based on content which the students have learned in previous lessons.
To support the students’ studies, I have referred to the Oxford Book 2 in these lessons. It would be useful to have a class set.
Otherwise, the powerpoints are self contained and can be taught by a teacher at any level of experience and to students of varied ability.
