Can be used as a summary sheet/homework/revision aid. Possible use as assessment task.

Why choose this resource? It has easy to follow instructions that individual groups of students can use to extract DNA very successfully. It also has questions suitable for A level or Higher Biology students or a "good" class of Biology Triple GCSE students. Practical guide would be very useful for non-specialists.

Students have to work out which children have cystic fibrosis and how they have inherited it from the symptoms and other information given on the sheet. Could be used as an assessment of student's understanding.

Could be used as a homework or a class activity . Assesses ability to analyse and apply infromation.

This is for KS3 students to give them practice at collecting and analysing data. It proved to be very effective with a mixed ability group of Year 7 students. Although there is just one document there is enough here to keep a class busy for an hour and they are practising maths skills essential to science and some scientific skills as well

Used for old BTEC genetics and with GCSE to teach natural selection. Students can sort cards in order to check their understanding.

For Biology content of new BTEC Level 3 applied Science. Practice questions about Gram positive and negative bacteria.

The topics here are action potentials, synapses and COPD. These are worksheets designed so students can do some independent research either in class or for homework on some aspects of the biology part of unit 1. Could be used as revision tasks,

This is a worksheet for students to analyse data from Van Helmont’s investigation. It can be used as an introduction to photosynthesis or as an exercise in understanding the scientific method. The unique feature of this is information is given from the original writings and teachers have found this gives an extra stretch and challenge to the problems set. More questions than those given can be added. Could be useful for KS3 or KS4. I have just added a link to a video which gives the background to his investigation and has notes on the video from the Science and Plants for Schools website.

For Biology A level students to help them review and revise respiration - glycolysis Link reaction, Kreb’s cycle and the electron transport chain. The cards have questions on the front and answers on the back. I used it with my A level Biology class as a review of respiration. It took them 10 mins, asking each other questions and worked well. More detail on how I used it at https://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?rinli=1&blogID=3310269823409632851#allpost ​ where you can find more free resources.

This resource tells you how your students can see some stunning pictures of stomata, without using that fiddly nail varnish! It also has questions which test the student's understanding of the function of stomata, scientific method and the link between decrease in stomatal density and global warming. Suitable for KS4 and possibly useful for KS5.

Used as a homework to revise key words for solids, liquids and gases and separation techniques.

This worksheet enables students to use key words to describe the structure of graphenes, fullerenes and nanotubesin Cloze passages and a question. It also covers uses of these structures. Suitable for Science GCSE students. Good for a summary, review lesson or homework.

Power point which explains how chlorophyll pigments can be separated using chromatography. This is a basic power point that can be improved with additional details of how to do the chromatography.

Worksheet with information and questions about the pH scale. Has extension question. Requires some prior knowledge as well as comprehension of the worksheet. Ideal as a homework. Just modified it to make it more accessible after my Year 7s completed it for homework. Good to see if they are reading the information properly!

I made this for tutorial time as it is a topical subject and it invites a discussion as to whetehr it is worth spending money on space exploration.

A science Christmas quiz based around the plants and animals we associate with Christmas. Suitable for higher end KS2 and KS3 as an end of term activity. It looks at adaptations, classification and even science methodology so it reviews topics and has a bit of end of term Christmas fun.

For Nuffield-Salters Edxcel A level Biology Topic 6. Power point has questions on it to help students review their work.\nCovers the symptoms and progression of the disease.

Want to put a bit more fun into teaching the light topic? These ideas are not "new" but are collected together here with some background information. This will be useful for those new to teaching or those not familiar with teaching Physics. There are 3 demonstrations, some background information on refraction and a homework idea. All illustrations are my own photos or I have permission to use them.

This is for Edexcel A level Biology context-led course. There is information and questions to answer including an exam-style question. I have used and modified some slides from hmc keating's power point on this topic ( on the TES website), and have added some more to suit the teaching of the Edexcel course. Thanks to hmc Keating.\nThe blog link has a little etra about the Red Queen theory of evolution.
