Starter for nutrition. Uses of nutrients.

Question of sport number round style Quiz. Answer 3 key points from each topic image. People tend to recall facts and key information in 3's so it promotes memory. Can also be carried out as a test where students will not see the answers (using the test version included in this sale). The students could then self assess using thee quiz version.

A planning tool for ecology students to plan out their practical assignment. Feel free to adapt it.

Flip cards to promote memory recall of the edexcel B1 biology topic. Ideal preparation for spotting areas of weakness and independent study. Students line out the cards and answer the question flipping the card to check the answer. Students MUST return to the start if they get the answer wrong (this is key to consolidating the learning). Slide 3 is an extension activity where students come up with the questions to the answers provided. PRINT ONE COPY of slides 1-2 on both sides of A4. CHECK THAT THE BOXES LINE UP and adjust if required by moving one of the tables accordingly. Now print your class set and let the kids cut them out because this ensures a calm start to the lesson.

Getting support from home has been proven to positively impact grades. This booklet is designed for parents to support their child revising the B1 Foundation Topic. Give a 5 star rating if you want all science booklets uploading as a bundle.

Cross curricular activity involving English persuasive writing, comprehension, scientific investigation and data analysis skills. Students will debate the use of plastic packaging. Both sides of the argument are presented and the teacher can decide if they choose. Ideal for cross curricular (also citizenship and fund raising) or even a one off cover lesson. Requires printing of colour data sheets (3 A4 per group). Supporting PowerPoint with prompts. Lesson plan. All proceeds will go towards The War on Plastic fund:

**Powerpoint online not supported **A Microsoft PowerPoint multiple choice style assessment covering the AQA Trilogy Physics topics 2018 /2019. The assessment identifies gaps in knowledge and topics of weakness. Self marking and automatic feedback (you must enable macros when prompted). I have included the Questions and answers in case you have technical problems or want them to do this in a cover lesson. Also printing function allowing students to name and print the feedback. See the whole set in a bundle here

Instructions to make your own model of the lungs and student worksheet. Identify the key parts of the respiratory system (Students will confuse this with respiration so avoid using this word), Describe how the diaphragm is used for gas exchange and how gasses diffuse at the alveoli. Items needed for model lung: Clear plastic cup each (1 pint), Straws (preferably thick), Elastic bands and lots of standard balloons, screw driver.

A simple activity to model cloning and genetic engineering using Haribo starmix. Student instructions are included. May also wish to buy some flumps. Ensure lab is clean and advisable to wear gloves. I found the smaller Haribo starmix bags to be better as the students can handle these. Must check there are two eggs or have a supply of spare eggs. Get students to describe the process back to you as a plenary. Enjoy.

Students are introduced to the different microorganisms and their contrasting structure. Students compare the scale of the microorganisms to familiar objects. Students will then research the microorganisms further and present their findings scientifically (using one of 6 randomly selected scientific formats).

The presentation considers the adaptation of Villi to perform their role. Investigate how the structure of Villi make it effective at absorbing water and nutrients. The worksheet explores digestive enzymes and assesses the students understanding.

Use for an exam success assembly, presentation or tutor talk. Includes a diet survey. Tell students this is for a future excursion for honest responses to the menu. Discuss sensible choices using the feedback sheet.

Practise a controlled assessment or practical in a fun and engaging way. Simple activity requiring effervescent tablets, balances, conical flask, rubber bungs and water. The worksheet encourages students to reflect on method and use data to support a conclusion. Students will identify equipment, control variables and write a method (hint sheet provided). Refer to slide 1 for lesson plan.

Powerpoint online not supported A PowerPoint based assessment consisting of 50 questions from the new Spec. If Macros are enabled the quiz is self marking and give feedback based on weak topics and areas for improvement. Ideal for end of year assessment to identify areas of weakness or gaps in knowledge. May be delivered by a non specialist in an ICT room and answer sheet is included to support them. Students could research the topics suggested when they have finished the assessment. Also available: Physics and Chemistry see my shop Discount for buying as a Bundle.

Practise a controlled assessment or practical in a fun and engaging way. Simple activity requiring a kettle, ice, boiling tubes, large beakers, salt, water, stop watch and thermometers. The worksheet encourages students to reflect on writing the method and using data to support the conclusion. Students will identify equipment, control variables and write a method (hint sheet provided). Refer to slide 1 for lesson plan.

Practise a controlled assessment in a fun and engaging way. Simple safe practical requiring Sugar, cups, hot and cold water. Train students to identify risks, control variables and write a method. Refer to slide 1 for lesson plan.

Transcription and Translation activity simplified for low to moderate ability or high ability starter activity. Turn a strand of DNA into a sequence of Amino Acids then translate these into a protein. Extension activity explores the effects of mutations and the beneficial or limiting effects of this. Students could explain what they have done for a plenary.

A PowerPoint with supporting instructions, starter and extension activities. Best if you use tealight candles. Encourages students to consider variables and to make accurate measurements. Students draw a graph to show their results. If students are difficult to motivate then ask them to estimate how long a candle would last in a specific volume (i.e. 300ml beaker) which they will have to produce a graph to extrapolate or interpolate to find this out. You could test a 300ml beaker at the end to test this. The extension activity promotes higher level scientific thought. It is unknown if the carbon dioxide smothers the candle or if the oxygen runs out first. Most students will say the taller candle as this will last longer!

Starter worksheet identifying the body's senses. Extension activity linking animals to their heightened senses. Practical activity requires two pronged hair pins and worksheet provided.
