A complete lesson covering the calculation of Chi square. It s designed fro specification point 6.1.2c of the OCR course but would be fine for any A level biology course. It starts with a reminder of calculating mean and range before introducing the chi square. The lesson goes through the theory including critical values. It then moves on to a worked example. The rest of the lesson is examples of the calculation including dihybrid inheritance. It also gives a reminder of using a punett square to solve a dihybrid problem. Most examples are based round genetics but one involving mitosis is included. Differentiated summary at the end All answers provided

A complete revision lesson covering the digestion section of AQA module B2- organisation. It also covers the two RPAs (enzymes and food tests) that occur in this topic. The lesson opens with the food tests RPA followed by looking at the components of a balanced diet along with the role of each nutrient in the body. The lesson then moves to look at the digestive system, its components and their individual role. It then looks at the stomach as an example of an organ with its tissues and their functions. The lesson the moves onto enzyme action and the enzymes of the human digestive system. It then covers the enzymes RPA before finishing with a series of exam questions. Includes retrieval type activities All answers are provided and no printing is required Update 11/05/22- sudan III test for fats added Update 08/05/23- changes to reflect return to normal exam arrangements

A full lesson covering section 5.1.1 i of the OCR a level chemistry specification- the rate determining step. It covers how to analyse results to calculate the order of reactants and how to use this to work our reaction mechanisms. There are worked examples allowing for a ‘I do- we do-you do’ style of delivery. The lesson includes a starter, full notes, worked examples, student activities and a differentiated summary at the end All answers included

This is a complete lesson covering sections 5.1.5 g and h of the OCR Biology specification- organisation of the nervous system and structure of the brain. It starts with the organisation of the nervous system into both structural and functional groupings. It the gives students the chance to practise working out which system different actions belong to. It then goes on to cover the structure and function of the human brain including the cerebrum, cerebellum and medulla oblongata. It closes by examining the link between homeostasis and the autonomic nervous system. The lesson includes a starter, full notes, various student led activities and a differentiated summary at the end. All answers are included. I actively try to reduce photocopying, so all of the lesson resources are within the PowerPoint rather than as extra sheets.
