A simple handout illustrating a simple calculation of percentage yield. May save you some time.

A very simple diagram of the apparatus for simple distillation. It may be useful for teaching the principles of how to draw diagrams in chemistry.

A very simple (and so clear) labelling activity. (NB. Please also see my interactive, drag & drop version, for £1.00, in my shop.)

Part of my series of A level style questions. Two pages with six questions.

I made this set of exam questions around glycerol. It has six questions over two sides.

for that first lesson.

Distinguish between element or compound from the formula.

Students work out the state different substances are in at room temperature, given their melting point and boiling point.

A fun video about this. Because I wanted to.

One of my wacky videos illustrating the difference in reactivity of benzene vs phenol in terms of polarising power.

This maybe helpful as a small revision exercise. Has a ‘check my answers’, ‘solve’, and ‘hint’ button. This runs in your browser. Simply click on the file called ‘index’ Please note: in order to provide a rich interactive experience, my interactive resources are mini-web sites local to your computer. After unzipping, they comprise a folder containing the main .html file and another folder containing the graphic resources and my coding to make the resource work. Double click on the .html file and the resource will work. If, however , you move or delete any of the files from this hierarchy, the resource will not work.

I have made a cartoon of dot cross type diagrams for all of the structures on the AQA specification. Simple double click on the covalent bonding.html file and it runs in your browser. Its nice and colourful, big and bold (zoom in with your browser to make it as big as possible). Could use around the whiteboard, or for independent study at a computer. It’s not intended as a whole lesson, but as a useful resource that can be revisited a number of times with a class to reinforce what they need to know for the exam. Could be starter or plenary or interlude. Please note: in order to provide a rich interactive experience, my drag & drop resources are mini-web sites local to your computer.

i made a tiny cartoon trying to explain how the halogen carrier works in friedel crafts (PS: you can use the youtube version for free)

I made a tiny video to illustrate this.

A minute video giving defintions of nucleophile and electrophile. Because I could.

I made a crazy cartoon illustrating the calculation of the enthalpy change from bond enthalpies for the reaction between chlorine and hydrogen. Just for fun really. Note: the youtube version is free.

Double click on pretty poly(mers).html, and the activity will open in you browser. Simply drag the structure of each monomer to the box next to the name of the polymer. Good AFL around the whiteboard. A paper version is also available. Suitable for GCSE and A level students.
