Designed for WJEC GCSE Biology as an easy-to-use booklet/PowerPoint resource. The booklet follows the Ppt. and covers everything students need to know for this section of the specification. This was done for an adult evening class where time was at a premium, but could be easily adapted for a series of lessons in a standard classroom environment.
I have created similar resources for the whole specification.

The lesson includes what conservation is, examples of conservation methods and reforestation.
One of the tasks within the lesson requires the use of a worksheet from ActiveLearn but could easily be replaced by other worksheets available
Perfect if you teach AQA GCSE Biology Combined Science or Single Science, this fully differentiated and resourced lesson supports your students in learning about Biodiversity. By the end of the lesson students will beable to define biodiversity and explain its importance, describe how human activities affect biodiversity and explain how programmes help maintain biodiversity. In addition, the resource can easily be adapted to cover other exam boards.
The resource includes a detailed and engaging PowerPoint Presentation with key points, differentiated activities, exam style questions and progress check questions/quizzes for students to complete. Differentiated worksheets are included.

This is a comprehensive collection of resources on Biodiversity for KeyStage Three (KS3) Science and Biology teachers (students aged 11-14). It is based on the new KS3 AQA Science specification. It aims to teach students the meaning of biodiversity, the importance of biodiversity, how lack of biodiversity can impact ecosystems and humans and factors that reduce biodiversity. The lesson is designed to be clear, colourful and engaging and to help students to think about issues for themselves. The resources are designed for one lesson but are pick and mix in that there is too much in the PowerPoint affording you choice of what you teach. Resources are as follows:
Resources are as follows:
Lesson PowerPoint with notes on slides on how to use.
Differentiated work sheets to accompany this.
Differentiated definition sheets
Home study (PPT and PDF) including a YouTube link to a voice-over explaining how to do the home study.
Mix and match home study (PPT and PDF). Also with a YouTube link.
Notes on the resources
Two standalone worksheets for use as cover/in class plus a colour one.
Study Stack questions and slide to aid student revision/use in class as a plenary.
The lesson PowerPoint covers:
The definition of Biodiversity
Biodiverse versus non-biodiverse ecosystems (ecosystem is defined)
Biodiversity within a species
Interdependence
YouTube links to videos
Looking at food webs and the effect of different species dying out
Human dependence on biodiversity
Human effects on biodiversity.
*** The PowerPoint has notes on the slides to assist Science teachers teaching out of their specialism.**
In addition, the PowerPoints come in light and dark versions to suit preferences/classroom situations. The differentiated work sheets link directly to the PowerPoint content and are greyscale for printing. A colour version of one of the standalone work sheets is also provided.
Revision sheets outlining the content in the 2015/16 newest Biology AS OCR content on Biodiversity.
Notes can be used as class handouts or for revision notes.
The revision notes include pages on:
- Biodiversity Basics and Sampling
- Sampling Techniques and Simpson's Index of Biodiversity
- Factors affecting Biodiversity
- How to Maintain Biodiversity
A PowerPoint divided into sections containing lessons depending on your pace.
The second power point is a hand out that I give to my students as an A4 booklet with all the diagrams and questions, glossary page, revision grids and QR codes for exam Questions
My teaching order is:
1. Habitats and intro to sampling
2. Sampling intro
3. Simpson’s index
4. Genetic diversity
5. Factors affecting biodiversity
6. Importance of maintaining biodiversity
7. In situ and ex situ conservation
8. Conservation agreements

Which content does it cover? 📚 📚
This practice sheet covers part of Topic 7 of Biology - Ecology.
It’s designed for both GCSE Triple Award Science (separate sciences) and Double Award Science (combined science) students.
It’s optimised for the AQA Grade 9-1 Specification 2016 onwards but has been updated for 2022.
This worksheet is designed for Low ability/SEND students. 3 Worksheets are Provided in this Resource. This worksheets enable teachers to align tasks with the individual learning objectives and capabilities of students with SEND. By personalizing content, educators can ensure that the material is neither too challenging nor too simplistic, which helps maintain engagement and motivation.
AQA GCSE Geography lesson for the new specification Unit 1B: In this lesson we look at what how plants and animals have adapted to the environmental conditions in the rainforest.
The lesson has a retrieval practice starter to begin with. We then look at what biodiversity is and why the rainforests are particularly diverse. We then look at rainforest stratification and plant adaptations. The students have a sheet to complete and some information slides to use to complete the sheet. This could be used as a carousel or group work task. The sheet can even be coloured in! Then the students complete a mix and match up task on the most common types of animal adaptations. The students then complete a rating task with explanation as to how significant are threats to biodiversity in the rainforest. We finish with a GCSE-style practice question with some guidance and structure provided for the students.
Hope this saves you some valuable planning time.
