All the chemistry core practical activities summarised onto 6 sides. As 15% of the assessed work for Edexcel/Pearson is based on practical experiments this is a useful revision aid that summarises all the required core practicals. It would be useful for revision with students or planning your GCSE (9-1) chemistry course to ensure all the required practical work is completed. Practical assessments included: Investigating inks Preparation of copper sulfate Investigating neutralisation Electrolysis of copper sulfate Acid-alkali titration Investigating reaction rates Combustion of alcohols Identifying ions Information includes: Dependent independent and controlled variables (where applicable) Required equipment Method and expected outcome of experiment Possible evaluation issues and improvements to method Safety aspects Also included template to design your own summary for Biology or Physics

Set of PowerPoints for 2009- IB diploma Chemistry. Worked examples of questions are included in slides. Should cover everything needed for topic 1- Stoichiometry.

Powerpoints x2, worksheet and teachers notes to help run group 4 project =10hrs.

Involves some lab work and investigations to answer the following TOK related questions: How is Knowledge Created in Science? To what extent is it important for scientists “see” things the same way? To what extent do scientists follow a set problem solving process or method for creating knowledge? What is the relationship between accuracy and precision in scientific measurement?

Support in completing internal assessments to help students structure work and meet assessment criteria.

Can be used as a mini test, homework or to check understanding at the end of a lesson. Suitable for KS3 or KS4 revision.

Introduction to IGCSE Chemistry and the first lesson in the topic 'States of Matter'. Dealing with changes of state between solids, liquids and gases and demonstrating diffusion with a choice of experiments depending on the level of student understanding and equipment available to you. Objectives: Can you describe the interconversions of solids, liquids & gases? (C) Can you explain the idea of diffusion with a practical example? (B) Can you apply the idea of diffusion to fully explain an example within both liquids & gases? (A/A*) Students expected to formulate their own ideas about diffusion and draw on knowledge from KS3.

Involves questions relating to KS5 Chemistry courses.

Focus on language used in exam papers to clearly understand questions and maximise marks.

The 'Limestone and Building Materials' topic looks at uses of limestone and reactions of the carbonates. Lesson objectives: -Carry out all the parts of the limestone cycle, safely, record results of the experiments and the reactions. -Use your results to help you to understand the limestone cycle. Resources included: 1.Worksheet to explain practical lesson and blank results table. 2. PowerPoint with a set of levelled questions for starter, theory for reactions of the limestone cycle, including uses of slaked lime. Plenary summarises encourages students to memorise the limestone cycle diagram.

The first lesson in 'The fundamental ideas in Chemistry' topic looking at the structure of an atom. Protons, neutrons and electrons, their location within the atom and their relative charge. How to calculate the numbers of protons neutrons and electrons when given the mass number and atomic number. Resources included: Powerpoint, with starter. Choice of 3 tasks, worksheets. Plenary, exam questions.

Some additional worksheets that can be used for extension activities or revision for the most able. 1. Crossword with questions on identification of atoms from their proton number and electron configuration. 2. Fill the table with numbers of electrons, protons, neutrons, mass number, electron configuration etc. Also has ions. 3. Fill in worksheet of questions on naming compounds (answers included) 4. History of the periodic table with questions. 5. Structure of the atom with some extended answer questions, (answers included) 6. Answer questions and fill in the table based on arrangement of sub-atomic particles and isotopes. 7. Some information on atomic structure and filling table for protons, neutrons and electrons, including ions.

Extra worksheets if students are struggling to access knowledge of Fundamental Ideas in Chemistry. 1. History of the Atom- Research task where students are expected find out about different scientists and how they used to understand what the atom looked like. 2. Research an element and find out the many different ways you can draw it. 3. Use blank periodic table and fill it in with as much information as you can find out. 4. Slightly more challenging worksheet, will involve some reading and processing information to answer questions on atomic structure. 5. Teacher lead practical on the alkali metals and water, students recording observations. 6. Filling in a table with numbers of protons, neutrons, electrons, mass number and proton number.

PowerPoint for 2009- IB diploma Chemistry. Questions for students work on are included in slides. Should cover everything needed for topic 2- Atomic Structure.

The 4th lesson in the 'Limestone and Building Materials' topic looking at uses of limestone and reactions of the carbonates. Lesson objectives: Most students should be able to: Recognise that limestone is a building material and state that it can also be used to make glass, cement and concrete. Complete a word equation for the thermal decomposition of limestone. Write the formula of calcium carbonate. Some students should also be able to: Explain the process of thermal decomposition of limestone. Resources included: 1. Questions on uses of limestone. 2. More questions on uses of limestone and quarrying limestone, could be used as homework. 3. PowerPoint with starter to recap understanding of elements mixtures and compounds, students produce notes on key reactions and uses of limestone though something more enjoyable than copying, some pair work and a plenary to check understanding.

A useful set of PowerPoints, units 1-10, with mostly notes but some questions that can be updated for current specification.

For fun but also educational, should take 30-40 min to complete.

The third lesson in 'The Fundamental Ideas in Chemistry' topic looking at how atoms can join together using elections, how to show them as chemical reactions and how to ensure they are balanced. Lesson objectives: -When elements react, their atoms join with other atoms to form compounds. This involves giving, taking or sharing electrons to form ions or molecules. -Compounds formed from metals and non-metals consist of ions. Compounds formed from only non-metals consist of molecules. -In molecules the atoms are held together by covalent bonds. -Chemical reactions can be represented by word equations or by symbol equations. -No atoms are lost or made during a chemical reaction so the mass of the products equals the mass of the reactants. Resources included: 1. Powerpoint with starter reviewing work on electron arrangement and testing current student understanding of chemical reactions. Explanation of molecules, ions and simple bonding before going into balanced equations. Some equations to balance on the ppt. and links to websites that do the same thing. 2. Quick true or false quiz to use as plenary. 3. Worksheet to practice balancing equations.

Just for fun, will need access to internet. Hand the sheet out to groups of two or three and ask them to pick a research question or cut out each question and hand out to individual student or each pair of student.
