Aims In this activity students will use an aseptic (sterile) technique and a small part of a cauliflower ‘flower’ to clone and create an entirely new plant. Learning outcomes After completing this practical, students should be able to: • state why plant clones are genetically identical to each other • explain how using tissue culture creates a clone of a plant • explain why it is easier to clone a plant than an animal • explain and carry out a practical accurately and safely in order to successfully clone a plant.

I've attached an applied science-revision checklist. It's essentially a copy of the Pearson applied science specification-I've just broken it down and chunked relevant topics. I have handed this to students so they can use it as a revision tool. Hope it helps. I've also made a checklist for the biology and chemistry unit.

This worksheet requires students to complete unlabelled diagrams using the AQA Biology textbook (page 188-189). This resource has been created to support the lesson on dialysis (check it out). *Top tip-print 2 copies to 1 A4 page to save printing*. AQA spec link: 5.3.3 People who suffer from kidney failure may be treated by using kidney dialysis. Students should know the basic principles of the operation of a dialysis machine.

To make it paper friendly print two copies to an A4. I normally ask students to glue this worksheet into the front of their books, everytime I mark their books I refer to this worksheet and tick/cross what has/hasn’t been met otherwise students tend to fall back into poor note taking habits. I print this for all year groups from years 7-13, so it really is suitable for everyone :) Download for FREE and leave a review!

This worksheet has been created in accordance to the NEW AQA specification (2016) for the Homeostasis and Response Topic and is to be used with students studying triple sciences (Biology ONLY) A small part of the specification requires students to be aware of the role of new technologies in corrective eye surgery. I created a comprehension task for my high ability year 11 students, it requires students to read a scientific article and answer a series of questions. This is an excellent stretch and challenge activity that exposes students to advanced scientific terms as well as new science. It can easily be set as a homework task. Answers can be found in the article. I was very pleased with the outcome of this activity, I loved that it opened a huge discussion in my class, please share your thoughts on this resource once you’ve had a go with your own students :) AQA specification reference: 4.5.2.3 New technologies now include hard and soft contact lenses, laser surgery to change the shape of the cornea and a replacement lens in the eye.

Mini topic test on Mitosis and the cell cycle, can be set as an open or closed book asssessment. Mark scheme included.

Electronic markbooks are the way forward, I always create a markbook for each of my classes at the begininning of the school year. It’s the ideal way to not only record class tests/homework but to monitor progress. Save paper and keep it backed up on to your schools ‘cloud network’ so it can never be lost! I have applied conditional formatting rules to relevant cells to make it easier to identify specifics and provided a key :-) Download this resource for completely FREE all you have to do is input the data! Please share your thoughts in a review! This markbook has been perfected over five years, if you have any helpful suggestions please leave a comment.

Every year we have students that have gone above and beyond within our classes however, they aren’t always acknowledged in reward assemblies because of the large pool of students they are competing against. Most of the certificate templates I found online were either over complicated, childish or both. Students in secondary school wish to be treated as young adults hence, I have created a sophisticated certificate, one that students would be proud to take home. Reward the students in your biology classes for their achievement and effort using these certificates, download for free and edit away! If you like this certificate but don’t teach biology, edit away! P.S I have attached PDF and Word doc versions, I recommend you print your certificates as PDF.
