A comprehensive ppt of 8 lessons with hand out to supplement. I print the hand out in colour and students write their notes into it. The homework questions refer to the summary questions in the Oxford University Press textbook ’ A level Biology for OCR’ A The order of teaching was dur to not having a lab for some lessons. You may wish to alter this! Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes Ultrastructure of Eukaryotes Protein synthesis and the role of the cytoskeleton PAG 1 Preparing slides and drawing specimens Microscopes research Magnification and resolution Using an eyepiece graticule and stage micrometer Revision questions and QR codes to study mind Qs

It is suitable to print as an A4 booklet. Lessons include: The need for communication - recapping relevant parts of the spec 3.1.4, 2.1.6, 3.1.2 Principles of homeostasis Controlling temperature in endotherms Controlling temperature in ectotherms Student’s t-test including past paper questions linked to PAGs 4,8 and 10 and recap of standard deviation. PAG 11 (3 lessons) Investigate the effect of exercise on HR using student’s t-test Revision - podcast revision activity, revision grid sheet and QR code to exam questions I hope you find this useful and I really value your feedback.
