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.

(1)
For BTEC level 3 Applied Science unit 1: Prinicples and Applications 1 - Biology This 8-page illustrated notebook on epithelial and endothelial tissue is available in both printable and editable PDF to allow for choice and comes with a completed version. I have also included a self-test version where students can fill in a page then click the link at the bottom of the page to check the answer. Research has proven that students learn best when notes are written in their own words. This is partly because students have to think more clearly about the topic when they have to put it into words which they would not do if they copy from a PowerPoint. It is also because they are more likely to understand it later if it is in their own words. This notebook encourages students to write their own notes whilst guiding them on what to write the notes about. It is designed to be used alongside other learning activities about the topic. It can also be used as a revision aid where students can try to complete the pages from memory – the self-test version is ideal for this purpose. Research has also highlighted the effectiveness of dual processing to aid student understanding and recall. This notebook makes maximum use of dual coding with the use of high-quality illustrations. Completed notebook included in the resource. The cell structure and function notebook covers the requirements of B3 that relates to epithelial and endothelial tissue and includes: • Locations of both types of tissue within the body • Different types of cells that make up epithelial tissue • Structure and function of squamous epithelium • Structure and function of ciliated epithelium • Causes and effects of COPD including emphysema and chronic bronchitis • Locations of endothelial tissue • Function of endothelial tissue in arteries and veins • Function of endothelial tissue in capillaries • Atherosclerosis including formation and risk factors • A test your knowledge section at the end

Homeostasis bingo for BTEC health and social care unit 3: anatomy and physiology Bingo is a firm favourite of students and is ideal for topics which include a lot of key terms to learn like homeostasis. For this game, students must understand the definition for a key term before they can decide whether they have that word on their bingo card or not. The 3x3 bingo cards cover 20 key terms between them and there are 30 bingo cards in total giving the option of having one bingo card per student. Alternatively, students can play in groups so they can discuss the answers to the clues and decide whether they have that key term on their card. To add challenge, some students could have more than one card to monitor. In order to succeed at this game, students need to solve all the clues given. Students can play for a line and then a full house to ensure the maximum number of key terms are covered during the game. This resource consists of a PDF document containing the clues to the key terms with a check box to tick them off when you have given the clue and 30 individual bingo cards organized two to a page. Bingo is an ideal revision game and can be played more than once to revisit the topic after several weeks.

BTEC health and social care anatomy and physiology renal system game

(0)
Renal system mastery game for BTEC level 3 health and social care unit 3: anatomy and physiology Make learning appear effortless with this mastery game for the renal system which focuses on structure and function of the renal system. There are several ways to play the game including both individual and team games. Students can play individually by laying the 16 cards face down in 4 rows of 4. They must start from the top right and define and locate the key term on the card. If they get the answer correct, they can leave the card face up, if not they must turn it back over again. They will not be able to revisit that card until they have finished going though all the cards. How quickly can they learn all the key terms? The game can also be played in small teams using a game board and counters. The group has a set of cards in a pile face down. Students will take it in turns for other students to ask them to define one of the key terms. If they get it right, they can move their counter one place up the mountain. If they get the answer wrong, they must make a note of the card and can study the card during the game. When all students get to base camp, they must have a last attempt to answer all the cards they could not manage earlier. The object of the game is for all students to reach the top of the mountain at the same time, so they need to help each other out. This resource includes: • A PDF document including 16 cards relating to the renal system. These should be printed double-sided so the key term will be on the back. • A PDF mountain climbing board. If you would like more questions on the renal system, why not try the specialist subject quiz 3 which includes the renal system and 4 other topics. If you would like more revision games for this unit, why not try the anatomy and physiology revision game bundle which includes different games for each of the different topics for this unit.

Body organ dominoes for BTEC health and social care unit 3: Anatomy and Physiology Test the students’ knowledge of body organ structure, location and function with this dominoes game which includes 30 questions on body organs. The game includes 30 dominoes with a question on the right-hand side and an answer to another question on the left. Students need to match questions to answers to complete a circle of dominoes. Students benefit greatly from discussing answers with their peers and this game can benefit from this if you give a set of dominoes cards to a small group or even give just one card to each student, so they must check with other students to match the correct questions and answers. This resource is much more fun than just answering 30 questions on a topic. Students can also each have a set of cards to aid individual revision. The resource includes: • PDF with 30 dominoes cards to cut out (cut around the solid lines but leave the dotted lines uncut). • Answer sheet to check students have answered correctly. This game can be used as a starter revision activity or a plenary at the end of the topic. It could also be used nearer to the time of the exam as a revision aid for this topic. If you like this resource, why not try: • Subject specialist quizzes which include questions for each of the main topics of the anatomy and physiology unit. • The anatomy and physiology revision game bundle which includes different games for each of the different topics for this unit.

BTEC health and social care anatomy and physiology reproductive system bingo

(0)
Reproductive system bingo for BTEC level 3 health and social care unit 3: Anatomy and Physiology. Students learn best when you make learning fun. I have always found that bingo is a firm favourite of students no matter which level of learning they are at. I usually have a box of prizes for the winner of the line and the full house to choose from for added motivation. The reproductive system includes a lot of new and complicated key terms which students can find difficult to learn and remember. This bingo game includes 20 of these key terms with 30 unique bingo cards to ensure you have enough for your class. By asking questions rather than just reading out the key term, students must first answer the question correctly before they can determine whether that key term is on their bingo card. This game can also be played in pairs and small groups to encourage discussion about the question enabling deeper learning. This resource includes: • PDF bingo cards with two cards per sheet. • PDF question sheet with tick box so you can tick off which questions you have asked. The resource can be used at the beginning or end of a lesson and will probably take about 15-20 minutes to complete. If you would like to test your students’ understanding of the processes relating to reproduction, why not try the reproductive maze game which includes 43 questions on the reproductive system. Enjoyed bingo? Homeostasis bingo is also available. If you would like more revision games to make learning fun, why not try the Anatomy and Physiology revision game bundle.

BTEC health and social care anatomy and physiology nervous system catchphrase

(0)
Nervous system catchphrase for BTEC level 3 health and social care unit 3: Anatomy and Physiology Make learning fun by using this revision game incorporating 20 questions on nervous system structure and function. Students enjoy playing catchphrase and are familiar with the rules of the game. Students can work in teams to earn points by answering questions correctly. You can allocate one point per correct answer and three points for guessing what the picture is showing. This will ensure students answer all the questions rather than the game being over as soon as the picture has been guessed correctly. Teams can win on points even if they do not guess the picture. The picture also ensures that students can identify structures from pictures which is a key skill in the exam. The game allows number tile to be reset if a student does not answer a question correctly. The same question can then be answered by other students later. This resource includes: • A PowerPoint including the picture slide which will be gradually uncovered as students answer questions correctly. Each number tile is a link to a specific question. • A PDF answer sheet The game is designed to be played at the end of the topic and will take about 15 minutes to complete. If you like this game, why not try the Anatomy and Physiology revision game bundle which includes different games for each main topic of the unit.
