This resource covers the content for the lesson SB9d - Biotic Factors & Communities. This resource starts with a visually engaging slide with the date, title and two starter questions, an easier question (green) and more abstract question (orange) to stretch and challenge. Learning outcomes are displayed at the start of the PowerPoint and can be seen throughout and referred back to reinforce the learning journey. Key content/words are highlighted in red text throughout. You will find similar green and orange questions scattered throughout the resource to strengthen and develop understanding. The lesson ends on an exam style question to allow students to apply their learning. This resource is aimed to be able to be used by an teacher, specialist, or non-specialist to deliver this portion of the curriculum accurately and effectively.
