The activity is aimed at GCSE and A level students but could be used to extend KS3 students with high reading ages. High level science involves learning an additional language as well as understanding the concepts and a lot of the words are very similar due to the root of their formation. This activity helps students to understand where the words come from so when they come across new terms, they may be able to use this knowledge to understand part or all of the term. It is a technique used in university study to help students, in particular medics to help them remember all the new terminology Provide each student with a hard copy of the morpheme table or display it on your WB. Students use the table to try and determine the meaning of the scientific words Go through the words in turn and students can mark their work/peer assess ensuring that they write the correct definition in their table if they were unable to work it out. I have included answers - they are not necessarily formal definitions as I wanted to try and keep the link to the morphemes.

An A4 page covering the main maths skills required for GCSE Chemistry/Combined science (Chemistry) Print out in colour/b&w and laminate to use in class or provide each student with a copy to stick in the front of their books for reference

A PP covering the AQA specification for Physics module 6.5.4.2 of the new AQA combined science Trilogy specification. The resource is designed to help reduce your planning time by providing you with the main specification points for each topic so you can focus on making lessons creative and engaging. Topics covered: Newton's First Law Newton's Second Law Newton's Third Law I hope to have covered the entire year 11 course for the new specification (biology, Chemistry and Physics) by summer 2017 so please keep checking for more resources. I will also be making assessments to go alongside the resources ready for September

A short activity to use in class/intervention/tutor time

A stand alone activity to help students understand how rate of reaction is measured and calculated. LO: To analyse data from a rate of reaction experiment and to evaluate practical methods as part of the skills required for AQA Required Practicals Skills covered: MS 1a: Recognise and use expressions in decimal form. MS 1c: Use ratios, fractions and percentages. MS 1 d:Make estimates of the results of simple calculations. MS 4a: Translate information between graphical and numeric form. MS 4b: Drawing and interpreting appropriate graphs from data to determine rate of reaction. MS 4c: Plot two variables from experimental or other data. MS 4d: Determine the slope and intercept of a linear graph. MS 4e: Draw and use the slope of a tangent to a curve as a measure of rate of change. Activity 5.6.1.1 accompanies the skeleton PP, Rate of reaction Skeleton PP for AQA Combined Science (Biology topic 6.1) - also available from TES

Students are given a week/ 7 hours to complete the task independently. The task covers the whole of module 1 in context and also develops their practical skills as part of the PAG tasks. The students will need to look up new terms in the textbook and research independently to complete the task successfully. 1. Hand in complete write-ups 2. swap tasks amongst peers and hand out peer assessment sheet. As you go through the PowerPoint, tasks appear that link to the peer assessment sheet. This way the students are covering the content of module 1 whilst also looking at in the context of their peers work and assessing the work. 3. Swap back for students to comment on the peer assessment 4. Finally (if you feel necessary) collect them in to teacher assess I covered the content in a double lesson and students learnt a lot from completing the task (despite a lot of grumbling) Covers OCR Chemistry A Module 1 Practical Skills in Chemistry Experimental design Types of variable Writing a plan Planning an investigation Recording data Manipulating data Evaluating results and drawing conclusions Precision and accuracy

A stand alone literacy activity to help students evaluate the use of contraceptives. It is a template for their article but they must use their knowledge and other sources of information to research the content LO: (WS1.4) - Explain everyday and technological applications of science; evaluate associated personal, social, economic and environmental implications; and make decisions based on the evaluation of evidence and arguments. Activity 4.5.3.4 accompanies the skeleton PP, Homeostasis and Response Skeleton PP for AQA Combined Science (Biology topic 5) - also available from TES

A quick quiz for tutor time or a homework. Could also be used at the start of the school year to get students brains thinking about science after the holidays Suitable for KS3 and KS4

The skills on the front page are linked to Doddle skills (https://www.doddlelearn.co.uk/app/login) However please feel free to remove the codes to make them generic. I have aimed the booklet at year 9 however the activities are transferable across KS3 and KS4 The activities should support students through their science education and help them to get used to terminology they will need for the required practicals at GCSE and A level

A 57 mark assessment covering rates, orders and equilibrium from module 5 (OCR A level Chemistry) The self assessment sheet breaks down each question by topic so students can quickly see which topics they are confident in and which topics require further work. I use the self-assessments in a similar way to PLCs and ask the students to keep them in their notes to refer to as a starting point for revision
