Teachers can RAG rate student progress to highlight strengths and weaknesses on this already formatted spreadsheet. All you have to do is put a number in and it will change colour automatically, saving you time and effort. Included is 3x required practical booklet for the biology, physics and chemistry required practical and a general scientific skills PLC tracker. PLC trackers are included for the synergy required practicals, building blocks, transport over large distances, interactions with the environment, explaining change, building blocks for understanding, interactions, movement, guiding spaceship Earth and key skill areas, Each section has coloured coded outcomes to differentiate biology, chemistry and physics. This resource should help you track student progress until they master each element of the Biology trilogy specification. The tracker will support written reports, inform students of the next steps and could even be used at parents evenings to inform parents of progress.

This PLC is already formatted with the statements/Can do/key idea statements all you have to do is add numbers: 1) can not do yet (red) 2) nearly there (orange) 3) mastered (green) 4) Away/absent for the lessons covering the key idea so need to catch up (grey) This resources covers all Biology, Chemistry and Physics topics, as well as working scientifically and other key skills (EG: graph drawing, calculations and maths skills, homework quality). You can also edit/add sections to suit your own teaching needs.

Engage your students as they learn all about the process of electrolysis and the purification of copper in a series of diagrams that can be stuck in their exercise books.
