Hi! I'm a secondary science teacher who's specialism is biology but teach all three sciences. I teach KS3 and 4 of all abilities and always teach from powerpoint. Every lesson I post in here I have planned myself and taught to at least one of my classes. Often I find that I am able to use the same powerpoint for various classes and just adapt my teaching and explanations to suit my class! Hopefully my lessons will cut your planning time! Please review them and let me know what you think of them

This is the eighth lesson for the P4 - Atomic structure for the AQA 2018 specification. This is a fully planned lesson with learning checkpoints, tasks, information and activities for students to do. Usually works best with whiteboards but can be adapted for without. Should be able to be adapted to any class with minimal effort.

This lesson is for the B6 - Inheritance and evolution module for the new AQA specification for exams in 2018. It contains a fully resourced lesson including a differentiation aid for weaker individuals, learning checkpoints, information, activities and is directly linked to the AQA guidelines. I have used this resources with a middle/high ability group but have also used it with a lower ability group in the pasts (just adapted my teaching but used the same resource). This includes binomial classification, Linnean classification and the three domain system.

This lesson is for the B6 - Inheritance and evolution module for the new AQA specification for exams in 2018. It contains a fully resourced lesson including learning checkpoints, information, activities and is directly linked to the AQA guidelines. I have used this resources with a middle/high ability group but have also used it with a lower ability group in the pasts (just adapted my teaching but used the same resource). in reality for students to fully understand this topic I would recommend doing this lesson over two lessons and focusing one lesson on natural selection and the other on speciation.

this is a full scheme of work of around 8 lessons for the new AQA specification 2018. Lessons include a recap lesson on the structure of the atom, development of the atom, alpha, beta, gamma and neutron radiation, hazards of radiation and half-lives. It is aimed at a high ability/mid ability group but could easily be adapted for a more low ability group to.

This is a full scheme of work of around 8 lessons for the new AQA specification 2018. Lessons include Density, particle models, specific heat capacity, specific latent heat and pressure in gases. Lessons are aimed at a high ability/middle ability group but should be easy to differentiate and adapt to your classes. All lessons are fully tasked, planned with assessment points to ensure progress.
