A collection of the resources I find useful in my classroom practise at a mixed comprehensive in Essex. I am an experienced Science teacher and currently teach all sciences to GCSE and Biology to A-Level, so the resources reflect what I am currently teaching and the profile of my classes. I also have a leadership role in overseeing student outcomes and curriculum. I also post resources relating to whole school development occasionally.

Double Sided Flash Card Maker

(10)
Fed up of trying to match up work out how to print the front and back of flash cards? Want to be able to print Quizlet cards double sided? An Excel workbook that produces double sided flash cards. Simply type the content for the front of the card in one column, the back in the next, then the workbook creates a word document formatted to print 4 double sided flash cards per A4 page. I use this to quickly make revision flash cards for students. Question one side, answer the other. Keyword one side / definition the other. The video linked in the worksheet (and below) shows how you can use this to copy and then print out on line card sets that have already been created in Quizlet.https://youtu.be/hQLUQMfwq70

Lesson powerpoint and exam questions on the link reaction and krebs cycle. The first part of the powerpoint is a review of glycolysis. The resources required by students for the activities are at the end of the ppt. The Krebs cycle slides are more detailed than required for A Level. I use this as a stimulus for the students to annotate the simplified krebs cycle on the last slide. Hope its useful!
