A visually appealing and well laid out A level worksheet pack focusing on plant responses and the plant hormones involved. There are three worksheets included in the pack, designed for pupils to work through independently. Once completed these worksheets will create a set of useful and detailed revision notes for students.
Worksheets cover the following:
Overview of plant responses and the roles of the 5 main plant hormones. This worksheet comes with 5 information sheets, one for each hormone, that pupils can use to complete the table element of the worksheet.
Plant responses to the environment
Types of plant response (tropisms)
Answer sheets are provided for all three worksheets.
Complete No-Prep lesson with exam questions, tasks and answers on Eukaryotic, Prokaryotic, Animal and Plant Cells for AQA GCSE (9-1) Science / Biology. This lesson covers all of AQA GCSE Biology / Combined Science 4.1.1.1 and 4.1.1.2. except for estimating the size or area of sub-cellular structures, which I have included in the lesson on microscopes later in the sequence.
As a Secondary Science teacher, Deputy Headteacher, writer and examiner for many years I make high quality no-prep lessons so busy teachers can teach outstanding lessons without spending hours planning. This high quality lesson includes explanations, different types of in-lesson assessment (all with answers) and unique exam questions.
In my lessons I take learners on a journey that builds up their understanding step by step, while still going into a lot of depth. The preview video shows a representative sample of slides from the resource so that you get a good idea of what it includes before you buy.
What’s Included:
• Teaching notes
• Starter / Do Now Activity
• Explanation slides in “chunked” sections with animated diagrams.
• Worked examples of calculations / questions.
• Multiple questions in different question styles and difficulties - no need for worksheets. Each “chunked” explanation section typically includes a set of “learning check / quick questions” followed by a set of in-depth questions on the learning from that “chunk” of the lesson. All questions have answers.
• Exam-style questions on the whole lesson at the end of the lesson- these are unique, based on real exam questions but not just copied from exam boards.
• Answers for all questions
• All easily editable to adapt to your teaching or to use in existing lessons.
• Slightly humorous, at points, if you like that sort of thing.
The lesson was written for AQA GCSE Science / Biology but is very likely to be applicable to other exam specifications.
Please leave a rating / review and all other feedback gratefully received!

Please click here for the complete Year 2 Science Posters resource.
This is a poster to reinforce the year 2 science topic: Plants. The beautifully designed poster is packed full of information and can be either used for revision or as part of a display in your classroom. PLEASE NOTE: The misalignment in the 2nd preview (the Word version) is not a reflection of how it looks, but a TES issue with generating previews.
Objectives covered:
Observe and describe how seeds and bulbs grow into mature plants
Find out and describe how plants need water, light and a suitable temperature to grow and stay healthy
Edexcel 9 - 1 B6 Plant structures and their functions
Full Powerpoint covering all aspects of this module.

Presentation includes Literacy, graph drawing skills and assessments with model answers.
Using plant hormones is a comprehensive lesson designed to help GCSE students develop their understanding of how plant hormones are used in agriculture and horticulture through engaging activities and differentiated instruction.
This lesson is the 10th in a series of lessons and covers the content from the AQA 4.5.4.2 Uses of plant hormones lesson (B5 Homeostasis and response unit), and AQA GCSE Biology OUP Scheme B11.10 Using plant hormones lesson (B11 Hormonal coordination chapter).
The lesson includes all necessary resources, making it easy to implement in your classroom and the lesson’s text is adaptable, allowing you to adjust the duration and depth of the activities based on your students’ progress and time constraints.
Presentation contains (19 slides):
● Lesson Prep and Technician Notes: Guidance notes for teachers to prepare the lesson and technician instructions.
● Bell Work / Do Now Activity: Engaging task to activate student prior knowledge and set the stage for the lesson.
● Clear Lesson Aim, Objectives & Success Criteria: Explicitly defined learning targets to guide students and measure their understanding.
