Easily keep track of faculty spending with this easy to use, straight forward budget tracker. Produces graphs, reports and tables giving a clear view of where your budget is going and how much is left. Step 1 Go to the “Overall” sheet and in the total budget cell, input your allocated budget. Step 2 As orders come in, click on the appropriate subject tab, and list the resource, where it is from, who ordered it, the cost, how many are required and if there are any shipping costs. The results will update on the “Overall” both in the table, and graphically, giving you a visual of exactly where the money is being spent. Furthermore a short report is generated, that can be copied and pasted into an email, should you need to notify someone of the progress with the budget. Step 3 It should be noted, that although this excel sheet has been set up for a Head of Science Position, it could be easily adapted to suit other Faculties by changing the name of the sheets and the labels on the graph. To alter the report, simply click on the cell, and in the formula, wherever a faculty is listed, rewrite it with the appropriate replacement. pw to unlock cells is “schoolsoutforsummer”

Easily generate unique comments for each of your students with this straight forward, easy to use excel sheet. Use the comments already loaded or input your own to quick and easily generate report comments that are individualised. See steps below for how to use. Go to Grades Tab and Insert student names and gender (use capital F or M to indicate which pronouns will be used in the comment) Go to Sentences. I have provided you with some examples of what you can use. You can alter what is there, and there is space for your to add more. If you need more sentence ideas, there is plenty available online which you can use as a template. Just google, “Report Comment examples” and you should come up with thousand of options. When inputting the sentences, you should see the key to the right for inputting pronouns or other data. For example, “%name% has shown that while heshe is capable, heshe has work to do to meet expectations.” will replace %name% with the name of the student and “heshe” will change to he or she based on the gender input. Before you begin creating your individualised comments, you should print off the “Sentences” sheet. It will make it easier to see all the options you have available. Now you are ready to create your comments. Go to the input tab and for each section insert a number between 1 and 25. This will insert the corresponding sentence that you created in the Sentences sheet. If you want to mention an assignment, then place the name of the assignment in the assignment column and it will insert it into the comment for you. When you are done, go back to the Grades tab and you should be able to see an overview of the comments for your students. If you prefer a cleaner view, you can go to the “Individual Student View Report Card” and type the number of each student in individually to have a closer look and check that you are happy. The final step is to copy the cells over to a Word document or wherever else you want the writing to go and you are done. If you don’t want to use my comments, there is a little time to be taken in the initial set up, but once you have the sentences in place, comment writing takes a matter of minutes rather than hours. I would even recommend having a separate list of sentence for each year level, however, that is something that you can work on with time. I have also attached an Email generator as a bonus. It has space for up to 15 preset emails that you can set. I have again left some examples, but you can alter them and create your own. When making your own emails, don’t forget to use the key to the right for anything you want replaced.

A great activity to do on a cover lesson, or as an intro to a new maths topic, this prepared diorama just needs to be cut out and stuck together, to create a 3D picture of the famous Alan Turing, the famous mathematician known for building the machine that ended up breaking the enigma code. This includes both a pre-coloured file, as well as a black and white image that the students can colour themselves, giving you plenty of options to keep the students entertained and informed.

Excellent for review lessons, cover lessons or as formative assessment, to see what they remember from previous years. Contains 30 randomised cards, ready to print out for a fun game of vocabulary bingo. Students can work individually, or in pairs to cross out terms as you pull them out of a jar (teacher sheet provided). When a card has a straight line of called out terms, either horizontally, vertically or diagonally, then the participant/s calls out “Bingo”. First participant/s to have an accurate filled out score card with a straight line is the winner. As a follow up, students can take the key vocabulary used in the bingo and write out definitions in their books for later use as a reference guide for upcoming lessons. Comes as a pdf file, ready to print. Liked this one? Check out the others! Copyright © 2022 The Efficient Science Teacher All rights reserved by author.

Practical 12 in the History in STEM practical series. In practical 12 we take a closer look at the history of biomagnifcation, by taking a trip through history to look at the impact of mercury over the years. With examples from the ancient Rome all the way to modern Japan, it gives the students a good idea of the human impact on the environment through the release of toxins. After that, we turn our attention to more modern times, by playing “bioMAGNIFIED” a card game simulation of bioaccumulation in the ocean food web. All cards are provided, with instructions and include mini and maxi cards, as well as coloured backs to help the students quickly sort the cards at the end of a game. More about the History in STEM practical Series This series is designed to bring quality cross-curricula material to STEM subjects, that help students to explore and discover phenomena normally taught, while getting a glimpse into the history of its development. In addition, a number of the practicals give the students the opportunity to play “Mythbusters”, looking at a number of different methods and having to reason why one or the other was the more likely or useful method. From Ancient Greece to Vikings, China to the Golden age of the Muslim empire and beyond to India, the series takes a look at some of the most important STEM achievements throughout history. There is a plan for 40 of these such practicals in this series, so, if you liked this one, consider looking at some of the others, or check out some of the bundles available.

Get students engaged with this colouring in picture/writing practice exercise of vehicles. Each vehicle has it’s name up the top of the page, with space down the bottom giving plenty of room and structure for students to try and write the name out themselves. Once they have done that, they can then go ahead and grab out the coloured pencils and let their imagination run wild. Great for cover lessons. Want more?

Instructions for Teachers The pages are set so that, when printed double sided, they have a back and front, enabling for easy sorting. Before you print the whole deck, test your settings by printing the first two pages of cards, to check alignment. If it doesn’t match, then its likely to do with how the printer flips the page (either long end or short end), so make sure it is on the flipped on the long end. If you don’t want backs, then print every second page. There are two sizes of cards, mini and large, so have a look at both before you print. Contents: 8x Hydrogen Cards, 8x Hydrogen Carbonate Cards, 19x Calcium Cards, 19x Carbonate Cards, 1x Information Card This card game works in 4 rounds. This works best in groups of 4, but can work with less or if necessary, up to 5 players per deck. Each player is role playing as a crab. Round one: The game starts by placing all of the Calcium and Carbonate Ion Cards face down on the table, as well as two hydrogen and two hydrogen carbonate cards. Each person picks up 4 positive ion cards and 4 negative ion cards. The goal is to match Calcium with Carbonate. If you have 4 pairs, your shell grows. 3 pairs means enough minerals have been gathered to repair their shell. 2 pairs means damage cannot be repaired, but doesn’t worsen and 1 pair means the shell gets further damage and cannot be repaired. Record the scores on a tally card. Round two-four: At the end of the first round and each round after, all the cards are returned to the table, face down and an additional two hydrogen and two hydrogen carbonate cards are added, symbolising the acidification of the ocean through the dissolving of more CO2. Same rules for shell repair apply. Person with the most points at the end wins (pairs). Enjoy.
