A complete, ready-to-teach lesson for Unit 3 (Science Investigation Skills): investigating how size and shape affect the rate of diffusion.

Learning objectives:
• Define diffusion and state the factors affecting its rate.
• Calculate surface area to volume ratio for cubes of different size.
• Investigate how size affects the time for diffusion to the centre.
• Explain the results using surface area to volume ratio and diffusion distance.

What’s included:
• Lab version: method, apparatus list and a blank results table, to run in the laboratory
• Desk version: the same lesson with a full set of realistic results supplied, so no lab time is needed
• Student and teacher versions of both, in PDF and editable Word (8 files in total)
• Teacher notes: lesson flow, common misconceptions and practical/safety notes
• Retrieval starter (5 marks)
• Structured tasks with key-idea boxes, data tables and printed graph grids
• Check for Understanding quiz (10 marks) with a confidence self-assessment
• Written-task practice (15 marks) based on an investigation scenario, ending with a levels-marked 6-mark question with indicative content

Specification coverage:
• E · Diffusion of molecules: investigating the factors affecting the rate of diffusion, including surface area to volume ratio, concentration gradient and temperature.

About 60 minutes of teaching; the written-task section works in class or as homework. All questions are original.

Safety note: the lab version includes practical guidance, but it is not a substitute for your own school or CLEAPSS risk assessment.

Written for the Pearson BTEC Level 3 Nationals in Applied Science. Not endorsed by Pearson. Single-school licence.

BTEC Applied Science Unit 3 Practicals Bundle | 11 Complete Lessons

The ten topic-area practicals for Unit 3 (Science Investigation Skills), plus a synoptic written-task practice lesson, in one download. Every practical comes in two versions: a **lab version** with method, apparatus list and a blank results table, and a **desk version** with a full set of realistic results already supplied. Teach it in the laboratory or at a desk with no technician time at all - the questions, graphs and mark schemes are the same either way. **Lessons included:** - D21 Written-task practice (synoptic: planning, data and evaluation) - D22 Enzymes and concentration - D23 Enzymes, temperature and pH - D24 Diffusion and surface area - D25 Osmosis in plant tissue - D26 Light and photosynthesis - D27 Plant distribution - D28 Energy content of fuels - D29 Comparing fuels - D30 Resistance of a wire - D31 I-V characteristics Covers all five topic areas - enzymes, diffusion of molecules, plants and their environment, energy content of fuels, and electrical circuits - across biology, chemistry and physics. **Every lesson includes:** - Lab and desk versions, each with student and teacher copies, in PDF and editable Word - Teacher notes with lesson flow, misconceptions and practical/safety notes - Retrieval starter, structured tasks with data tables and printed graph grids - Check for Understanding quiz with a confidence self-assessment - Written-task practice ending with a levels-marked 6-mark question and indicative content Consistent layout and structure across every lesson, so students always know what to expect. All questions are original. Safety note: the lab versions include practical guidance, but they are not a substitute for your own school or CLEAPSS risk assessment. The twenty investigation-skills lessons (D01-D20) are available as a separate Unit 3 Skills bundle. Written for the Pearson BTEC Level 3 Nationals in Applied Science. Not endorsed by Pearson. Single-school licence.
