Complete lesson plan with powerpoint, games and worksheets to introduce standard enthalpy of neutralisation, formation, reaction, neutralisation and combustion. Suitable for new AS OCR A Chemistry spec.

A quiz in the format of an i-phone app. Pupils look at the 4 pictures and decide what the key word is using the letters at the bottom. All the words are linked to the Chemistry GCSE making this a useful revision aid. To those asking how you make your own, I used screen shots of the game (from Google) and copied and pasted my own images over the top. I then cut and pasted the correct letters from different screen shots to make sure the right letters were available. It was very time consuming but the pupils loved it so it was worth it.

PowerPoint explaining polarity (dipoles) and electronegativity. Compliments OCR A syllabus but would probably go with others too.

This engaging game was a hit with my class. You can use this game to teach about the reasons and consequences for deforestation. 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.

Cut out pictures and laminate. Pupils put cards in order from most acidic to most alkaline. If you have Smartboard, they can then drag the names into the right order before you reveal the correct answer (behind the blue box). Alternatively, you can reveal the answers on the Powerpoint. Please leave feedback.

A powerpoint to teach metallic bonding and structure to Year 12. It takes the form of a series of questions for pupils to attempt to answer from their GCSE knowledge before the answers are revealed. Goes well with my metal bingo starter. Please leave feedback.

Powerpoint introducing respiration, focusing on energy in food. Includes instructions for a practical to calculate the energy in sugar. Please leave feedback.

An active way to teach waves, which I made to introduce my low ability Year 10s to waves. Print the circus and put the sheets at 5 stations around the room. Pupils move around the stations in groups filling in their sheet (print slide 5 of the powerpoint). Go through the answers on the powerpoint and then pupils fill in the blanks (print slide 11) to check their understand. Feedback appreciated.

Pupils play top trumps using 5 categories - group number, relative atomic mass, atomic number, melting point and boiling point.

I have created a poster summarising all the key reactions that pupils need to know for aromatic organic synthesis. I recommend printing on A3. I have also included extra posters with parts removed - one has the names removed, another the conditions and another the display formulae. Pupils try to fill them in from memory. You could then set them the challenge of drawing the whole thing from memory. Finally there are 4 synthesis routes for pupils to plans (answer are in the notes). I recommend following this up with exam questions (for copyright reasons I cannot include these). An aliphatic synthesis lesson is also available to buy.

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.
