GCSE Chemistry (SEN/Foundation) Crude oil, alkanes, frac. dist, alkenes, polymerisation - 5 w/sheets

(0)
These resources are specifically designed for SEN/Foundation students studying GCSE Chemistry (OCR/AQA). They cover formation of crude oil, hydrocarbons, alkanes, fractional distillation, alkenes and polymerisation. They are done in story boards, fill in the gaps, but on sheets which can be used as starters, plenaries, home works, revision, or as a class activity working in twos. The language is easy to access and tells the story of crude oil to products simply and in a way students can understand. Covers all the main key points in a way a low ability student can access.

New AQA AS Biology - Immunity Revision Work Sheet (10 sheets)

(0)
This 10 page work sheet will help all AS students struggling with consolidation of the key facts . It covers all of the main parts of the syllabus : antigens, antibodies, immune system, t cells, b cells, monoclonal antibodies, Elisa, pregnancy testing, primary and secondary responses, vaccines and passive and active immunity. Can be used as revision cards, help with consolidation, help sheets before a test, or as a starting point for revision of more able students. I made these sheets specifically for my struggling students, but are comprehensive for any student who may find them helpful.

New OCR A2 Level Biology - F215 Biofermenters, Batch & Cont. art sel & cloning 14 w/sheets

(0)
These 14 work sheets cover the following part of the F215 OCR Biology A2 syllabus. The sheets can be used as starters, plenary at the end of the unit or for revision purposes. The sheets cover the following: Biofermenter structure and uses Batch and continuous processes Primary and Secondary metabolites (Insulin and penicillin included) Typical microorganism growth curve with diagrams and students to fill in phases. Finishes with enzymes and enzyme immobilisation techniques. Artificial selection (modern cow and modern wheat) Cloning in animals and plants (runners, root suckers (elm trees), bulbs, tubers, cuttings, grafting, tissue culture, finishing with reproductive and non-reproductive cloning of animals (nuclear transfer / embryo splitting) I used this with some struggling students and they loved them. But great for all students for consolidation purposes. Hope they can help others. Please leave feed back if you like them. many thanks for looking at my resource.

GCSE AQA Physics - Ultrasound, magnets, electromagnets, light & sound w/sheets (13 w/sheets)

(0)
The ultrasound 7 w/sheets cover what ultrasounds are, how they work, examples of uses in medicine (kidney stones/ foetal checks), how to work out distance between boundaries (using example questions), differences between x-ray, CT scans and ultrasounds. It finishes with 10 questions for the students to consolidate what they have learned. Made these sheets specifically for revision with higher tier students (turned into a little A5 revision booklet). You could set it as a home work booklet. I also used the sheets with lower ability/ struggling students to help consolidate the main scientific information they need. They liked the sheets because they were easy to understand and easy to access the scientific material. Magnets and electromagnets (2 sheets) - nice mind map on magnets and a quick fill in sheet after they have completed the work. Great for class activity as a starter, plenary, home work, or as a revision card. Even used with top set KS3 who loved it. Light and sound help w/sheets to help consolidate information from lessons.

GCSE Biology handout. This is a hand out sheet explaining the 3 main scientists involved in helping to explain the photosynthesis equation we have today and the time line involved. It is part of a set of resources produced to aid my "Premier Listed" power point called Plant Structure and photosynthesis which covers all parts of the specification. Please check out my other resources. Thank you for taking the time to look at my resource and I hope you find it beneficial.

GCSE Biology - Endangered species (SEN / Foundation)

GCSE Biology - Endangered species (SEN / Foundation)

(0)
A map and information about endangered species. Students have to make a poster showing all the endangered animals on the map. I had to bring up a map of the world whilst doing this activity as many are unaware where most places are. My SEN group worked really well in groups, discussing, working as a team, and producing a nice resource which can be put up showing students work, and also they get to understand about endangered species. I then set them a homework to chose one animal and tell me why it is endangered. Keywords can be put on the board to help.
