I am a biology teacher who has many years’ experience working in the social care sector including managing care homes and home care services. I have been teaching health and social care and science since 2015, mostly to level 3 students. I believe learning is an active process helped by visualization of the processes. I create visual resources for both health and social care and science including BTEC and Cambridge Technicals in health and social care, BTEC applied science and GCSE biology.

There are 10 questions relating to which gland produces a specific hormone. • Round 3 – the hormone round. Another 10 questions on the actions of specific hormones. • Round 4 – the disorders. There are 6 questions on disorders of the endocrine system. The resource includes: • PDF document including all four rounds. • PDF answer sheet. If you would like more questions on the endocrine system, why not try the specialist subject quiz 3 which includes questions on the endocrine system and 4 other systems.

For BTEC Applied Science Unit 1: Principles and Applications 1 (Biology). Four revision games to cover the nervous tissue section of B3 of specification. Get your students to learn while they are having fun. Included in the resource: NERVOUS TISSUE QUIZ The quiz, which can be printed or completed on editable PDF, includes an answer sheet to save you valuable time. There are four rounds – • Picture round where students must identify 8 pictures relating to nervous tissue. • Resting and action potential round which consists of 10 short answer questions on action and resting potentials. • Synapses round which consists of 10 questions on structure and function of synapses. • Neurotransmitter round which consists of 8 questions on types of neurotransmitter and how specific drugs affect the actions of neurotransmitters. NERVOUS TISSUE WHEEL OF FORTUNE Can be played individually or as part of a team. The game consists of 30 questions (answers included). The question cards should be printed out double sided and cut out. They are then placed number side up. Spin the wheel of fortune to identify which question should be turned over.

If the wheel picks a question that has already been answered that student or team is let off this time. This game makes an ideal revision session for this topic. NERVOUS TISSUE BINGO Students love a game of bingo. But while they are having fun trying to get a line or a full house, why not help them revise nervous tissue by asking them a question for each of the 20 key words rather than just giving them the words. Includes 30 unique bingo cards. Answers to questions included. Remember not to print double-sided! NERVOUS TISSUE JEOPARDY Ideal for teams. There are 5 topics students can choose from (their choices will give you an idea of what they are least confident about): • Nervous tissue structure • Resting potential • Action potential • Synapses • Neurotransmitters Once a student or team has chosen a topic, click on a tile under the topic and it will take you to a question. There are 6 questions for each topic (answers included in the PowerPoint). If the student/team gets the answer correct they can choose to answer a bonus question for extra points. 60 questions in total on nervous tissue. ARE THERE ANY OTHER GAMES IN THIS SERIES? There are also games available on cell structure, cell specialisation, epithelial tissue and muscle tissue. If you are not sure if the games are right for you, you can try the muscle tissue games for free – available in my shop. If you like the games, you can save money by buying the games bundle.

Each team/student will be given one of the organelles on the pictures and the other team/student must ask questions to eliminate option. They are not allowed to specifically ask if it is a particular picture. Instead, they must ask questions based on the features of the object. For example, asking if it is a cell will distinguish between the four organelles and the four types of cell. CELLS MATCHING PAIRS This game can be done with the whole class in teams using the PowerPoint. There are 12 pictures with 12 matching descriptions, all randomly placed on the grid. Students must reveal two tiles, decide if they match or not. If not, they must remember their positions so that they can match them later. Recover the tiles by clicking on them. Points can be awarded when students correctly match pairs. Answer sheet included. ARE THERE ANY OTHER GAMES IN THIS SERIES?

Two of the statements are true and one is a lie. Students must find the lie. The answers can be revealed as you go or you can go through all the slides first before going back over the answers. Click on the statement to reveal whether it is the lie or true. Genetics matching pairs includes 20 squares to be cut off. Each square contains either a key term or a definition relating to genetics and students must match the key terms to the definitions. This quick activity is an ideal plenary or starter revision activity.

BTEC health and social care anatomy and physiology disorders revision game

(0)
Disorders revision game for BTEC health and social care unit 3: anatomy and physiology The anatomy and physiology unit includes nearly 40 disorders for the students to learn. The exam will cover a number of these, but it is anybody’s guess which ones will turn up. This revision game offers more than one way to help students commit all these disorder to memory in a fun way. The disorder cards can be played as a board game which includes elements of competition and luck to make learning fun or they can be used individually by students to learn the disorders. The game includes 39 disorder cards with information about the disorder on one side and just the name on the other. The board game includes the traditional start and finish squares and different requirements for landing on particular squares. Some squares are gray and can just be landed on without any need to answer a question. Other squares allow the student to roll the die again so as to advance further along the board. The other squares require the student to state specific facts about the disorder on the next card in the pile. If they do not get the answer correct, they must stay on the square they are on and not advance. The squares may ask for the category of the disorder which means they must identify the body system it is a disorder of, or whether it is a genetic or congenital disorder or a dysfunction of homeostasis. Other squares require an overview of what the disorder is and other squares ask for symptoms of the disorder. Some squares require all three aspects of the disorder to be identified by the student. Students can use the disorder cards for individual revision by laying down 9 of the cards face down in three rows of three. They must start at the top right and state information about the disorder. If correct they can keep the card face up, if incorrect they must turn it over again. Students cannot revisit this disorder until they have gone through all of the cards. How long will it take to learn all 9 of the cards? To make it easier, students can learn different aspects of the disorders at a time such as category, overview or symptoms.
