CBA

 CBA  I just Can't Be Asked to balance equations - Summer revision classes for year 10 students who seemed to have missed lots of year 10 chemistry.

The force from a wire

 Doing an online experiment to demonstrate the force a wire can make when travelling through a small magnetic field

Learning to use a pipette

 Learning to use science equipment is just as important as learning about science. Something I find that many students lack, as is designing experiments - not just the ones they have to design ,but doing science by enquiry.

Capillary Rise

 Syllabi change and some bits of science drop out of syllabi, but the science doesn't change and learning about some of these other things is vital to what the students need to know - like capillary tubes and how they work

Boosting onto year 13

 Some down time in the holiday is an excellent time for getting ahead and with year 13 work and revising some of the old year 12 work keeping the hand in on the old C1 and C2 papers. 

Rates of Reaction

Studying rates of reaction is possibly one of the easiest and hardest things to study in chemistry. Looking at concentration, particle size and temperature and then at A level measuring the rate and determining what is going on.
 

Induction Apparatus

 

Trying out the Eisco Induction Apparatus to induce a current using a magnet or a coil within a coil or as a coil within a coil with an iron core to dramatically increase the effect
