A 7 lesson unit covering the following points of the OCR A level biology syllabus: 5.3 Resting and action potentials Transmission of nerve impulses Synapses 5.5 Receptors and the Mammalian nervous system The brain Reflex actions Muscle structure Muscle contraction This unit comes with a workbook for students to complete as they go through the course and includes diagrams, exercises, retrieval practice questions and exam questions.

A one-hour lesson covering the difference between AC and DC supply and the differences between mains and battery supply. Includes oscilloscope trace practice and how to draw and interpret them. Accompanying worksheet reduces copying time while allowing key words to be practiced and embedded. Starter links to previous learning and exam questions are included with answers.

Mid and end of chapter assessments for the B3 “health and disease” chapter from AQA GCSE Biology. This also includes the student booklet for this chapter that accompanies all the powerpoints in this unit - all activities, “do now” starter tasks at the start of each lesson, focusing students’ recall of recent, less recent and more distant learning. The chapter notes and exam questions are also in the booklet, which then reduces planning and printing for the entire chapter.

A 2 hour ( 2 lesson?) powerpoint with associated activities and exam questions, covering AQA A level HIV structure, replication and diagnosis using ELISA test. This clears up common misconceptions between HIV and AIDS and links topics such as immune system and antibodies.

A series of 4 one-hour lessons on ENZYMES for AQA A level Biology. Includes exam questions with the model answers and flash cards for students to do some self-quizzing.

A complete knowledge organiser for year 12 A level Biology AQA course. Arranged as a series of questions which students can use in their own independent study and self quizzing. I use these as part of a revision countdown in year 13, but also as retrieval practice as a lesson starter to recap previous learning and embed the key points. Also some blank question sheets which can easily be printed to form a starter or revision tool.

This one-hour challenge game is a great way to finish off year 1 of the A level biology course, or to be used as a revision resource. There are 8 challenges, including mathematical quizzes, based on the first year of AQA A level biology. Students complete against each other to complete all 8 challenges, with the final challenge answer being the clue to where the prize is hidden. My classes love this activity - I have laminated resources so I can use them every year.

A one lesson powerpoint pack covering AQA GCSE Biology specification B2 lungs, gas exchange and lung disease Activities and exam questions included, with guided and independent practice. There are “DO-NOW” starter slides with questions and tasks from last lesson/recent/distant lessons This powerpoint is part of a B2 bundle which also includes mid-chapter and end-of-chapter assessments, careers information relating to lesson content and a course booklet which students can complete as they go, with notes from the powerpoints, activities and all exam questions, so reducing both workload and printing per lesson.

TWO ONE-HOUR COMPLETE LESSONS FOR AQA GCSE B1 BIOLOGY COVERING SPECIALISED PLANT AND ANIMAL CELLS. All my lessons have starters based on prior learning and recall of key words. There are activities with accompanying worksheets, with exam questions and plenty of guided and independent practice.

A one-hour lesson covering the following: State what an ion is. State the charge of metal and non metal ions. Describe how to write formulas for a compound using a name. Starter based on prior learning retrieval practice. Plenty of guided examples followed by independent practice. Accompanying worksheet.

A complete unit of work covering chapter 2 from AQA GCSE chemistry spec. 8 one-hour lessons: C2.1 STATES OF MATTER C2.2 IONIC BONDING C2.3 IONIC STRUCTURES C2.4 COVALENT BONDING C2.5 SIMPLE COVALENT MOLECULES AND POLYMERS C2.6 DIAMOND AND GRAPHITE C2.7 GRAPHENE AND FULLERENES AND NANOSCIENCE C2.8 METALLIC BONDING Each lesson begins with a retrieval practice starter and includes notes, guided practice and plenty of opportunities for independent practice including exam questions with answers. Accompanying 45 page booklet includes key notes from the powerpoint presentations, with gap fill exercises, the “do-now” starters, guided and independent practice and the exam questions. The word doc of the booklet can be used as individual worksheets, or print the whole booklet out so students have a complete unit of work for revision purposes.

A 5- lesson unit of work covering the DEFENCE AGAINST DISEASE section of B3 chapter “Health and Disease”. This unit includes: antibiotics and antiseptics plant and animal defences immunity and vaccination monoclonal antibodies discovery of drugs As with all my lessons in this unit, there are “do now” starter slides at the start of each lesson, focusing students’ recall of recent, less recent and more distant learning. This lesson is part of a bundle, which also includes the student booklet for the chapter - this includes all do-now tasks, class notes and activities with exam questions, mid and end of chapter assessments, which then reduces planning and printing for the entire chapter.

A five-lesson unit covering the following sections of AQA GCSE chemistry: ELECTROLYSIS OF MOLTEN COMPOUNDS EXTRACTION OF METALS BY ELECTROLYSIS ELECTROLYSIS OF AQUEOUS SOLUTIONS ELECTROLYSIS OF BRINE HALF EQUATIONS (HT) Each lesson starts with a retrieval practice starter from recent and less recent learning, but linked to future learning. Notes and clear explanations of the process of electrolysis, with guided examples and then plenty of opportunities for independent practice. Includes theory needed for the required practical. The accompanying 17 page booklet is complete with key notes, diagrams, gap fill exercises, spaces for own notes and exam questions. This will reduce copying time for students, allowing them to focus on the job at hand, learning the new tricky concept of electrolysis!

A series of five one-hour lessons covering the Biological molecules chapter of AQA A level biology. This includes presentations on lipids, bonding, carbohydrates and proteins and flash cards for students to cut out and keep for their own self quizzing. Exam questions with model answers included in presentations.

Although a bit of a pfaff cutting things out, this resource can be laminated for future use. I've found this invaluable for demonstrating how mRNA is translated into a protein. Students can make the link between tRNA antocodons being specific for the amino acid they carry, and the process of translation at the ribosome. I asked one class to do this as a stop-frame animation, resulting in a lovely film they could keep to remember the process. Best printed A3 and then laminated unless you LOVE cutting teeny things out. I've uploaded a film made by one of my students so you can see how it will look. Enjoy!!
