Also a starter and plenary to measure progress in learning).

A series of 4 lessons going through plant reproduction including the structure of a flower, fertilisation and germination. Two lessons cover two simple practical activity encouraging students to design an investigation for themselves. There will be slides that are personal for my students which will need deleting/adapting for your students.

A lesson which covers the specification for Applied Science Unit 4 whilst covering the nervous system.

This is a PPT and ‘qualification’ lesson on how to use bunsen burners. Students carry out a simple practical of melting ice cubes but the focus is on using bunsen burners for the first time. They then receive a ‘bunsen burner qualification’ which is a credit card size print out on card that i have had them stuck on the front of their books.

Revision powerpoint covering the objectives on photosynthesis. There are some slides that include questions on food chains (this was a starter based on the previous lessons on food chains) - delete or use elsewhere if you like!
