A-level chemistry: key skills and knowledge booster

Aimed at teachers of students starting an AS-level course, there is very little waffle in this book. Its 120 pages are crammed with good, useable resources. An accompanying CD provides electronic copies and answers, so you can edit them if you wish.

Many students find the transition from GCSE a big jump, and a lot of the material here is aimed to support that jump. There are some GCSE checker tasks, which cover essential vocabulary and concepts, followed by a section on basic A-level skills. This would sit well early on in a Year 12 scheme of work, with sufficient tasks to cover many key numeracy skills including the use of significant figures, standard form, plotting graphs and rearranging equations.
