The text is used with both levels of the worksheet. Both worksheets are gradated, but aimed at different abilty levels, the LAPS sheet for lower ability students.

Loud, energetic activity to make the connection between metals forming alkaline oxides, and non-metals forming acidic oxides. Choose your class carefully!

The powerpoint and the tutorial together move students from simple energy level diagrams through to quantitative calculations of enthalpy of a reaction using bond energies. Molymods are needed to follow throught the activity on the slides and a bunsen burner burning is intended to be the reaction they see and write the equation for at the beginning of the starter.

Print the first slide out over several sheets as a poster. Print the others as handouts - nine to a page - onto card, and cut out. Students learn the reactions by placing the carsd in the correct place on the poster.

Worksheet with diagrams for students to describe and explain the brown gas diffusion experiment. Its worth printing this one out in colour - that usually goes down well.

The power point image sheet and the pollution boxes go together. This is a cut and stick activity to distinguish between acid rain and the greenhouse effect. The pollution 1 powerpoint is to show where the text boxes should go on the diagram , before they are stuck down.

Spagetti junction matching activity. Indicate which acid and other reactant need to be put together to make the salt named in the middle. Quick starter for KS4 or quick plenary/extension for KS3 students.

Print the first slide on several pages to make a poster. Print the other slides as handouts, 9 slides per page, onto card and cut out. Place the cards in the correct place on the poster.

The worksheets are to summarise the main properties and trends in properties of the elements in groups 1, 7 & 8. The text boxes activity sheets that go with them can be used for lower ability students as a cut and stick exercise, or a tick list to complete the worksheet.

As a result of student feedback, this slighlty improved version of the previous powerpoint distinguishes the Markovnikov and Anit-Markovnikov products with HBr more clearly. As before, print the first slide over several pages to make a poster, print the rest as handouts onto card - 9 per page is a good size. the game is for students to place the cards in the correct place on the poster. Under pressure to music such as 'mission impossible' can help to shapren the instincts. Minor mistakes have been corrected.

Loud, energetic activity to make the connection between metals forming alkaline oxides, and non-metals forming acidic oxides. Choose your class carefully!

Print the first slide out as a 9 page poster. Print the other slides onto card as a handout - 9 slides on each works. Students place the cards on the right place on the spider diagram. Under time pressure with active music and competatively is also good.

Print the first slide out on 9 pages and make a poster. Print the others out on card as handouts (9 to a page works). Get the students to place them in the right place on the spider diagram. Under time pressure with active music and competatively is also good.

The answers! where the different cards should go on the posters for each of the different functional groups.

Starter or plenary. Cut 'n&'stick. Text to sequence and diagram to label with the text. Presentation to check labelling (before final stick down.)

Cut and stick activity. Match two labels to each chemical formula to name the compound represented by the formula. Students may experience a little conflict with some of the names but should be able to figure out the -ate and -ide rule from the examples given.

The worksheets are to summarise the main properties and trends in properties of the elements in groups 1, 7 & 8. The text boxes activity sheets that go with them can be used for lower ability students as a cut and stick exercise, or a tick list to complete the worksheet.

Make a set of cards by printing the 'which hazard cards' onto card. The 'Which hazard?' makes a good plenary where the name and description of the hazards of the chemical are read out. Students hold up which label or labels should be put on each chemical. The homework sheet is to consolidate, and to make students aware that some everyday chemicals, for everyday uses, carry hazards and should be used with due care.

The power point image sheet and the pollution boxes go together. This is a cut and stick activity to distinguish between acid rain and the greenhouse effect. The pollution 1 powerpoint is to show where the text boxes should go on the diagram , before they are stuck down.
