BTEC Applied Science Unit 3 Practicals Bundle | 11 Complete Lessons

The ten topic-area practicals for Unit 3 (Science Investigation Skills), plus a synoptic written-task practice lesson, in one download.

Every practical comes in two versions: a lab version with method, apparatus list and a blank results table, and a desk version with a full set of realistic results already supplied. Teach it in the laboratory or at a desk with no technician time at all - the questions, graphs and mark schemes are the same either way.

Lessons included:

• D21 Written-task practice (synoptic: planning, data and evaluation)
• D22 Enzymes and concentration
• D23 Enzymes, temperature and pH
• D24 Diffusion and surface area
• D25 Osmosis in plant tissue
• D26 Light and photosynthesis
• D27 Plant distribution
• D28 Energy content of fuels
• D29 Comparing fuels
• D30 Resistance of a wire
• D31 I-V characteristics

Covers all five topic areas - enzymes, diffusion of molecules, plants and their environment, energy content of fuels, and electrical circuits - across biology, chemistry and physics.

Every lesson includes:

• Lab and desk versions, each with student and teacher copies, in PDF and editable Word
• Teacher notes with lesson flow, misconceptions and practical/safety notes
• Retrieval starter, structured tasks with data tables and printed graph grids
• Check for Understanding quiz with a confidence self-assessment
• Written-task practice ending with a levels-marked 6-mark question and indicative content

Consistent layout and structure across every lesson, so students always know what to expect. All questions are original.

Safety note: the lab versions include practical guidance, but they are not a substitute for your own school or CLEAPSS risk assessment.

The twenty investigation-skills lessons (D01-D20) are available as a separate Unit 3 Skills bundle.
