I have put together a collection of my favourite lesson plenaries which can be used as templates and tailored to your lessons needs! There are 17 altogether, ranging from anagrams to ‘Silent 5’ lesson summaries to writing twitter messages and Whatsapp messages to friends!

This lesson is designed for the Activate KS3 Science Course, specifically Year 7 P3 ’Light’. For more lessons designed for KS3 and KS4 please visit my shop at: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/SWiftScience. The lesson begins with an introduction to refraction, students are provided with a description of this process along with a digram to help demonstrate the idea. Next, students will investigate the process of refraction. Students will be provided with a worksheet, they will need to fill in the blanks on the worksheet to provide a full method for the practical investigation, this can be checked against the answers provided on the PowerPoint before students begin. Once students have completed the practical investigation they will then need to complete a fill-in-the-blank task to conclude what they have found during the investigation. A diagram of the process of refraction is then shown to students, with detailed labels explaining what is happening as light travels from air, into glass and back out the other side again. Students could sketch a copy of this into their books for notes, they will then summarise what they have learned so far with a cloze activity. This can be self-assessed using the mark scheme provided. Lastly, students will complete a ‘Progress Check’ task - this is a set of questions for students to complete in their books which will assess what they have learned this lesson. The answers for this task are also included in the PowerPoint presentation so students can mark and correct their work once this task is complete. The plenary task is for students to wrist a list of key words from the lessons they have covered on light. All resources are included at the end of the presentation. Thanks for looking, if you have any questions please let me know in the comments section and any feedback would be appreciated :)

This is a lesson which meets specification points within the OCR Gateway Science - B1 -Cell-Level Systems SoW. The lesson begins by pupils using posters around the room to complete a levelled worksheet on the structure and function of animal and plant cells. Pupils will then peer-assess their work, providing feedback of the grade each pupil achieved and ways to improve their work. Pupils will then complete a ‘revision’ task in the back of their books, they will need to stick in a sheet and match the structure to the function. Pupils can self-assess their work. The final task, an assessment task, involves pupils answering a past-paper questions. They should try and do this with their book closed to test their knowledge of what they have learnt this lesson. Pupil can then either peer-assess or self-assess their work. All resources are included, please review with any feedback :)

This lesson is designed for the NEW OCR GCSE (Gateway Science) Biology B1 ‘Cell-level systems’ SoW. This lesson begins with a review of magnification and resolving power, as well as defining the two main advantages of the electron microscope. The following slides offer detailed notes on the parts of the electron microscope and their functions. Students will then fill in a table in their books using information notes which have been posted around the room. A self-assessment slide follows! To consolidate the lesson, students will complete an exam-style question and self-assess to the following slide. The plenary task is a series of answers for students to write the questions for. All resources are included. Thanks for looking, if you have any questions please let me know in the comments section and any feedback would be appreciated :)

This lesson is designed for the KS3 Year 8 Science course, specifically the C2 1.2 unit on ‘Metals & Other Materials’. For more lessons designed for KS3 and KS4 please visit my shop at: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/SWiftScience. The lesson begins with a demonstration, students will be shown a demo whereby alkali metals are dropped in water one at a time, students need to note down their observations in a table. Once this is complete, students will be asked to predict what happens when francium and caesium are dropped in water, students will then watch a video to check whether their answer is correct. Students will now be shown the general word equation for a metal + water, students will now be asked to copy and complete a set of further metal + water word equations. This task can then be assessed using the mark scheme provided. Next, students will be given a set of statements and a number of grouped metals, knowing what they do about the reactivity of these metals with oxygen and with acid (from previous lessons) students will be asked to match the groups of metals to the correct statements - describing their relative reactivity. Once this task has been completed, students can self-assess their work using the mark scheme provided. Following this, students will need to use the statements provided to describe the way in which these metals react with dilute acid, once this task is complete students can self-assess their work. Students will now be shown the word equation for the reaction of metal with steam, including the balanced symbol equation, with state symbols. Students will be asked to then write out the balanced symbol equation for zinc + steam, the answer to this will be provided so students can mark their work. Lastly, students are given a set of sentence starters (metals) and they will need to match these to the correct sentence enders (description of the metal). This work can be marked and corrected using the mark scheme provided. The plenary task requires students to write down three facts, three key words and one question to test their peers knowledge of what was learned this lesson. All resources are included at the end of the presentation. Thanks for looking, if you have any questions please let me know in the comments section and any feedback would be appreciated :)
