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.

Video tutorial showing how to tackle calculations on equilibria in A level Chemistry. The common mistake of students not using equilibrium concentrations is pointed out and a strategy to help with that problem. Make available to students to help with homework and revision.

Starter slide. Sodium, sodium chloride and carbon dioxide. which is the odd one out? Several answers possible for different reasions. Students should explain why they have chosen a particular answer.

Print on A3 and laminate. To help students who struggle with rearranging formulae to do calculations. Use with a formula card and the relevant quantity and units card. Referring to the formula card, put the quantities that are multiplied on the bottom sections of the triangle and the other on the top. The quantity being asked for in any particular problem can be removed and leave the relevant formula arrangement to do the calculations. Activity can help students to learn how to create their own rearrangement triangle from learned formula. (AQA GCSE Physics 1-9)

Game to become familiar with and to differentiate between metal and nonmetal elements. Can help reinforce the -ium ending to identify metals.

Flashcards and display cards for word banks with meanings evident. Key terms in KS3 and KS4 Chemistry. Flashcards can be printed back to back and used in individual learning, or shared paired learning. They can be printed out separately and used to play “snap” or “pairs”, or simply to match the word with its meaning, or reduced in size in copying to make a cut and stick activity. Key terms include atom, molecule, element, compound, ion, mixture and others related to particles.

Game to reinforce the -ide/-ate endings in naming ionic compounds. to differentiate between compounds containing oxygen and those not containing oxygen from the name of the compounds.

A plenary, starter or revision game to reinforce the difference between categoric and continuous variables, with examples of both types.

Plenary, starter or revision game to differentiate between ionic and covalent substances from their names. Makes the connection beween the presence or absence of metals and the type of bonding.

“Give more detail.” How often does this comment get written next to those unstructured, written response questions? Let’s face it, the chemistry of aromatic compounds really lends itself to those comparison type questions. The reactions and functional group are multi-faceted and influence each other. Scan back through some A level past exam papers and you will see them there. This resource summarises different aspects of aromatic chemistry that might be compared. Similarities and differences are presented in 6 Venn diagrams, laying out the main points to take note of. The planning of answers to different questions is done here, ready to put into a clear, coherent paragraph, depending on the question asked. Ace those level of response questions in Arenes!

Do your ** A level Chemistry **or GCSE Triple/Separate Chemistry students get lost trying to make their way through Mole Calculations questions, especially those unstructured ones? Here is a map to show them the way. Do they get muddled about which relationship they need to use to calculate the number of moles and then resort to the old favourite n=mass/Mr? Here are some signposts to help them to orientate themselves. A handout that summarises the direction of travel and shows them what to look out for in the question as prompts to which relationships they need to use in the context of the question being asked. With over 20% of the marks available in the A level Chemistry for Mole Calculations, the clarity given here is a must! Suitable for all A level Chemistry courses AND if you ignore the ideal gas equation, GCSE Triple/Separate Chemistry.

Summary worksheets on the keywords describing change of state and the properties of and particle descriptions of solids, liquids and gases. The States of Matter worksheets are for different abilities and the keyword fill may be used as a preparatory sheet for students to find the keywords, or simply as an annotation sheet used in conjunction with the presentation. The wordbank cards have the meanings as well as the words and these or the flashcards may be used in conjunction with the keyword fill sheet for students to place the words before writing them down. The flashcards can be used in class for peer learning and checked with a quick quiz. Although intended for lower ability students, the longer "States of Matter cut and stick" worksheet can be useful in general on a Friday afternoon. "States of Matter - match" is intended for middle ability students and "States of matter" for higher ability.

Flashcards to help students to learn the formulae for GCSE physics. Can be used individually or for paired learning. Standard units are given on the other side to use and learn. Cards from a particular topic can be selected and displayed for students to choose the appropriate formula to apply to a particular problem. Higher tier formulae and those supplied on the sheet are also included, and some blanks to add your own. (AQA 1-9)

KS3 Biology. Activity to learn the parts of the Respiratory system. Can be used in a variety of ways: Slide 1&2 as a cut and stick; slide 1 for students to label what they know and find out what they don't know - possble homework. Class learning or revision activity - print out onto A3 and laminate the first slide, print the second onto card and cut out. Students work in pairs or groups to place cards onto the diagrams. This method works well as a game in the style of Beetle Drive, where they are put under time pressure and then have to move round to take up where another group have left off. The answer slide can be put up to check, or printed out and given to other students to check to make sure the first group to finish has completed the activity correctly. Rewards, forfeits, music all add to the fun. Can be used individually - look, cover, place, check.

GCSE Physics. Flashcards with the symbol on one side and standard units on the other to help students learn the standard units for differnet quantities. Use individually or for paired learning. Printing the cards out one sided will also provide a resource for straight forward matching activities, or playing pairs or snap - matching the units to the quantity. (AQA GCSE Physics 1-9)

Power point slide shows, using particle pictures, to check understanding of the differences between elements and compounds, and atoms and molecules. Smart board interactive activity also includes mixtures with the elements and compounds, and the word match checks the meanings of keywords. Useful quick plenaries for KS3 Chemistry. Use coloured cards, moving left or right, mini white boards for students to show their answers. Can be fast paced, or repeat and reinforce definitions of key terms by picking out students who have given correct answers and asking them to explain why, scaffolding verbal answers given to enhance accuracy. Activities can also be used as starters for the next lesson, or for KS4 lessons to check prior learning. Ions word match smart board activity is also included for use with KS4.
