Resource Includes: 1 hour of teaching A powerpoint covering how the carbon chain can be extended and the reactions of nitriles Questions and answers Lots of diagrams Please see my other A Level Chemistry resources. Follow me on Twitter for lots of ideas: @Teach_Chem602

This is an aspect of Chemistry that many pupils struggle with. The lesson starts with a whiteboard quiz which helps pupils to revise all the moles equations they have learnt so far. The powerpoint then takes pupils through step-by-step instructions for calculations involving balanced symbol equations. Lots of examples are given. I tried this lesson with my class and by the end, all were able to do the calculations. You can find lots more calculations questions here: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/exam-style-calculations-for-module-2-of-new-ocr-chemistry-a-level-11273252

Resource includes a powerpoint which covers: Alpha amino acids Zwitterions Isoelectric point Acid and alkaline conditions Example questions and answers The lesson encourages pupils to think for themselves. There are hints included to help the students which can be removed for a more able class.

Pupils will learn what a simple covalent compound is and how to draw them. Includes suggested practical which can lead into talking about the properties of simple molecules. It is important that you carry out your own risk assessment before doing any practical activities. A competitive game is included, as well as a homework sheet which will allow them to practice the main compounds that they need to know.

This lesson covers the causes and problems of pollution, including: carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, particulates, sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides. Included with this resource: A powerpoint which explains the key concepts Two practical activities (be sure to carry out your own risk assessment) Activities to test understanding A worksheet. You will need access to molymods. A current GCSE textbook would also be useful but not essential.

Complete resource for teaching aluminium. Includes worksheets, activities and animations to clearly explain the process of electrolysis. Originally made for OCR, I have since used it for AQA. Please leave feedback. You can buy a complete scheme of work for electrolysis, which includes electrolysis of aluminium, here: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/complete-electrolysis-scheme-of-work-for-gcse-11258103

Powerpoint which explains how to plot a titration curve, what it shows and which indicator to use. A worksheet is also included.

This is an activity for a Smart Board interactive whiteboard. It is a good starter for using when discussing living and non living organisms and the 7 life processes - MRS GREN (or MRS NERG!). There are various pictures on the board of living and non living things, which pupils have to come and drag under 2 columns - one for living and one for non living. They then have to say how they decided. I did this with a year 7 class to recap what they had done in year 6 and it was surprising that there was quite a lot of debate over which ones were living and which weren't.

Questions covering all of the new specification. The questions summarise the entire content. Pupils can complete the questions for revision and use their textbooks to mark it. I wrote the questions using the content of the new Pearson's textbook and a couple of the calculation questions are from the book (pupils can look up their answers to these in the book). I have not proof read my work so apologies if there are typos! Please leave feedback if you use this resource.

This engaging game was a hit with my triple science class. The class are given the following scenario: "You form the government of a small country that contains a large rainforest. Due to years of war and instability, the country is not popular with tourists. With very few other industries, the country is running out of money. All that you have is forest so you will need to decide whether to sell a portion. Whenever you sell forest, cross off the squares you have sold on your forest board using a marker pen. You have been borrowing money from other countries and have a debt of £2 000 000 which needs to be paid by the end of the game." They will then work in small groups to make as much money as possible from their rainforest. There will be consequences for their team depending on how much rainforest they choose to sell. They will learn about the reasons behind deforestation and the problems it creates. Follow up questions are included.

A complete lesson for introducing orders, the rate equation and rate constants. Includes questions and detailed answers, explaining exactly how to work out each question. I am in the process of creating a SOW for module 5 of the new OCR A Level so check back soon for more lessons.

A two hour lesson covering practical skills for organic synthesis and synthetic routes in organic synthesis. Diagrams, activities and questions included. Individual whiteboards for the pupils would be useful but if you don't have them, scrap paper would be fine. Designed for use with the new OCR AS level and compliments the Pearsons textbook. Check out my other organic resources.

An engaging lesson to cover the very dull topic of treating waste water, including worksheets, quizzes, videos and Q&A. This resource includes a complete lesson as well as a game (The Journey of a Poo). These can be bought separately for £3 so by buying together today, you will save £1.

I was not satisfied with the synthesis route diagrams provided in the textbooks so I made my own. The poster summaries all the reactions from AS and A2 organic chemistry. Extra versions are provided with some details missing for pupils to fill in. Then a white board quiz allows pupils to practice different reactions and synthesis routes and a card sort allows them to create a large synthesis map from memory. This tried and tested lesson was a hit with my students. Aromatic synthesis lesson to follow.

36 revision questions spanning 6 pages to recap the whole of the benzene topic including structure, naming compounds, equations, reaction conditions and reaction mechanisms. Resource include a worksheet in both PDF and Word format as well as full answers.

This lesson presumes prior knowledge of electrophilic substitution. Pupils try to work out the mechanisms involved in the reaction. Includes diagrams and questions.
