A pack of two pupil-led activities designed to engage learners in the classroom whilst studying the topic of digestion. Activity 1 - Card sort on the sequence of digestion. You could either print this on paper and then cut/guillotine so that pupils could then order them in the correct sequence and glue into their classbook. Or alternatively print onto card or laminate if on paper to create a resource that can be used again and again. Activity 2 - Loop game on the topic of digestion. The idea of this activity is that the pupils have to pay close attention to the question being read out as they may have the correct answer to the question. Pupils seem to really enjoy this activity and it not only helps their learning but is fun too. Either print on card or laminate if on paper to make a reusable resource for the classroom. Both of these activities would be useful as a plenary at the end of the topic or as part of a revision lesson. These activities are praised in observed lessons as the activity is pupil-led rather than teacher-led; especially of importance if being inspected :)

These sheets provide a useful structure for students when investigating the Vitamin C content of different fruit juices. When carrying out this investigation with Year 9 students we used 0.5ml of DCPIP in a boiling tube with 0.5ml of the fruit juice added at a time, until decolourisation occurred. We had a cut-off point of half way up the boiling tube in case the juice being investigated was particularly low in Vitamin C.

A worksheet featuring key questions for pupils to answer about the coronavirus. ** Answers now included** This could be used in a biology lesson as part of the topic on infectious diseases or even during a PSHE lesson, as many pupils are interested in this topic and want to know more. Research could be carried out using the internet, there are plenty of excellent websites, such as the BBC and the WHO, where the answers to the questions can be sought.

The Biology CIE IGCSE Classification and Cell Biology Multiple Choice Pack has forty multiple choice questions covering the following topics from the specification: 1 Characteristics and classification of living organsims 2 Organisation of living organisms 3 Movement into and out of cells Uses of the Question Pack: As a class exercise: students work through the question pack as individuals or in small groups with a competitive timed element and see which individual/team can get the most correct in the time allocated - this works well during revision sessions. As a homework task for students to complete - there is an student answer document provided for students to write their answers into for marking. As a formative assessment to identify topics covered by the questions that students may need to revisit. As a summative assessment at the end of teaching the topics covered by the questions. Or another way I have used the packs is to print off several copies and place in a labelled document wallet. During general exam preparation sessions, these are provided alongside other topic MCQ packs (I will be adding more topic packs soon as a bundle). Students can pick and choose which topic packs to attempt, but they don’t write on the question paper so it can be reused. Answers can be recorded in a printed copy of the student answer table. You can also print off a few of the mark schemes for pupils, and place in the folder too, so they can mark their own answers or peer mark. There is two formats provided for the answers: A table of correct answers which can be displayed or printed with all answers shown at the same time. A PDF copy of the questions, marked up with the correct answers, this is great for displaying on an interactive board for discussion of the questions and their answers
