Outstanding Science in a box

I specialise in general science resources for KS3 and KS4 and biology for KS5. I try to make my resources suitable for non-specialists and teachers new to the subject, by including answers to any questions and full step-by-step explanations. I love flashcards and try to make a set for each unit I deliver. I am in the process of upgrading these to colour coded (differentiated) sets. All newly added resources will have a remote-learning version too (just in case :-))

This is a set of five Powerpoint presentations which covers 10 lessons. It breaks down the assessment criteria into manageable chunks with instructions on which parts to complete in each session. It should help to keep the students on-track, so no-one falls behind. The presentations should be printed off and given to the students (or emailed to them) so they can use them to guide their own study.

This is a Powerpoint that covers all of chapter B1 of the AQA Biology text book in one revision session. Can be used for pre paper 1 biology revision or for an end of chapter test for younger students. It’s a whistle-stop tour of the main points from this chapter. Students write down the parts they are unsure of only There is no content in this chapter than is separate science only, so this is suitable for both combined science and separate science.

I was looking for some flashcards for GCSE Biology revision, and couldn’t find anything comprehensive - so I’m making my own. This set covers the first sub-chapter of the AQA Biology text book plus cell structure and transport and inheritance and variation. Please let me know if you find them useful - it might spur me on to get through the other chapters more quickly :-) They are designed to be printed double sided (flip on long edge), so just need to be cut out and they’re then ready to go. If you edit any of the questions, make sure the boxes still line up before you print them. Update - I will keep adding extra cards as I make them - so if you’ve bought this resource already - keep checking back to see if there are more cards you can download.
