The structure sheet lays out the structures of lipids, phospholipids, ways of representing them, ester bonds and saturated/unsaturated.

Infection and Response Glossary: Written for AQA 9-1 GCSE Science but it would relate to other specifications. I wrote it by going through the syllabus/textbooks and picking out a mixture of key words and words which I thought students might not know. I’ve put in student-friendly definitions. It covers the transport and non-communicable disease part of the topic which we teach separately from the digestion parts. There are two crosswords based directly on the glossary. I tend to give neighbouring students different crosswords and so avoid too much copying. They are about the same difficulty so could be used competitively. They are deliberately straightforward to test the extent to which they have learnt the vocabulary. Answer keys are included.
