Scheme of work

Ref	Lesson pack	Structure	Worksheet	Quiz	Lab tab
3.1	Electronegativity and bonding Every bond is a tug of war over a shared pair of electrons.	Cooperative Concept Mapping	6 Q, 13 marks	8 MCQ	tab 5
3.2	Ionic bonding When a metal hands its outer electrons to a non-metal, the ions that result do not pair off.	Think-Pair-Share	6 Q, 14 marks	8 MCQ	tab 3
3.3	Metallic bonding Metal atoms give up their outer electrons, but not to anyone in particular.	Mix-Pair-Share	6 Q, 14 marks	8 MCQ	tab 4, tab 8
3.4	Covalent and dative covalent bonding Two non-metal atoms cannot both win an electron, so they share.	Jigsaw	6 Q, 14 marks	8 MCQ	tab 2
3.4	Sigma and pi bonds, hybridisation A covalent bond is overlapping orbitals, and the way they overlap matters.	Corners	6 Q, 14 marks	8 MCQ	tab 6
3.5	Shapes of molecules Electron pairs around a central atom push each other as far apart as they can.	Frayer Model	6 Q, 14 marks	8 MCQ	tab 1
3.6	Intermolecular forces Boiling water does not break a single O–H bond.	Connect-Extend-Challenge	6 Q, 14 marks	8 MCQ	tab 7, tab 5
3.6	Hydrogen bonding and bond properties Water should boil at about −80 °C if it followed the trend of its group.	Anticipation / Reaction Guide	6 Q, 14 marks	8 MCQ	tab 7
3.7	Dot-and-cross diagrams A dot-and-cross diagram is a bookkeeping tool: it shows where each outer electron came from and where it ended up.	Cooperative Concept Mapping	6 Q, 13 marks	8 MCQ	tab 2

Each pack holds the plan, worksheet and quiz for its lesson. Teach the rows in order; the lab tabs match the student lessons.
