AQA Science (New specification) lesson; differentiated for a low ability class. Interactive, with differentiated tasks. Addresses the following specification points from the Biology specification: 4.5.2.2 The brain The brain controls complex behaviour. It is made of billions of interconnected neurones and has different regions that carry out different functions. • The cerebral cortex is concerned with consciousness, intelligence, memory and language. • The cerebellum is concerned mainly with the coordination of muscular activity. • The medulla is concerned with unconscious activities such as heartbeat and breathing. Students should be able to identify these structures on a diagram of the brain. Does not address higher ability content: Neuroscientists have been able to map the regions of the brain to particular functions by studying patients with brain damage, electrically stimulating different parts of the brain and using MRI scanning techniques. The complexity and delicacy of the brain makes investigating and treating brain disorders very difficult.

I have created this PSHE based powerpoint and resources (worksheets are at the end of the powerpoint) for year 11 students, but it could be used with year 10 or KS5 students. It covers events such as going to a festival, going on holiday, commuting, moving home to uni and getting home from a night out. There is also a section on binge drinking and its effects on our ability to make safe decisions. The lesson links to the PSHE Association suggested Scheme of Work Planning Toolkit for key stages 3 and 4.
