What do teachers say about this resource? (11262, 11263, 11264, 11265)
The content of the articles is engaging and will be of interest to students looking to engage with chemistry at a higher level.
This will support them in transitioning to more independent research at a higher level of study. It will also help teachers to make links beyond the A Level requirements in their lessons.
The content of the articles is an appropriate level for the students to access and be challenged by.
The stretch and challenge activities are excellent and will give A Level students a lot of practice for their exams. I like that the questions are well differentiated and I feel the activities are well suited to stretch the students.
