I am a secondary school Science teacher, specialising in Physics. Have taught for nearly 30 years across all ability ranges. Have University fees looming over the horizon so thought it was time to share my hours of planning experience and hope it saves other colleagues some time.

AQA Combined Science C7 Organic Chemistry part 1 Crude Oil and Alkanes (lower ability)

(0)
I have produced a series of lessons for a lower ability Combined Science class on the topic of organic chemistry. This is the first lesson on crude oil formation and alkanes. The powerpoint is written in comic sans font and simple coloured background to make the visual clues easier for students. The lesson includes key basic ideas but it would be easy to slot in more complex ideas if required for a higher ability group. There is a matching student sheet to minimise the writing requirement Credit to other TES contributors who have provided me with ideas.
