This is the first lesson of a unit to mark the 2012 Olympics. Each lesson focusses on an olympic event and links it to scientific concepts. I will upload as I write them! Lesson 1 is the 100m sprint and reaction times. The practical requires computers (ideally laptops - one per group) but can be done as a whole class activity with the IWB. One worksheet is to accompany the practical, the other is a homework activity on graphs and data analysis.

A worksheet which summarises chromatography for GCSE or higher ability KS3. Answers are included.

A self-directed worksheet for students to review the year 7 forces topic

A sheet covering the first part of the B2 unit (digestion, enzymes, organisation, heart, blood)

A presentation and worksheet to support the food tests required practical. Includes student instructions and results tables.

Posters can be printed and arranged around the classroom. Students get a copy of the worksheet and move around the classroom working independently. A perfect hangover lesson ;-)

An activity where students make fullerene (buckyball) models. Print out the templates on card and follow the instructions in the document.

This sheet guides students in how to create a poster about acids and alkalis. Perfect for year 7 and weaker students, the images can be cut up and placed on the poster.

I couldn't find a decent summary anywhere so I made this worksheet. I don&'t think students need to know too many details for AQA Unit 1 so hopefully this will be useful. Please let me know if I&';ve missed anything or made any mistakes.

A worksheet to practice drawing simple covalent molecules

A collection of resources for a lesson on disease risk factors. Students begin by completing the health questionnaire. Then the term 'risk factor' is defined. Students then independently look at several pieces of data which link risk factors and disease. This is a good lesson for dealing with data.

This scheme of work is designed to prepare students for the new science GCSE courses (first exams 2018). It will bridge the gap between key stages 3 and 4 by introducing some of the fundamental concepts in the biology course. The emphasis is on developing numeracy, literacy and practical skills through engaging activities rather than focusing on content which they will learn at GCSE. There are eight lessons, although each one includes a practical activity and can be taught over two lessons. The topics are: 1. Size and scale 2. Surface area and volume 3. Diffusion 4. Respiration 5. Food energy 6. Nervous system 8. Natural Selection The resources include - a scheme of work outlining each lesson and practical activity - PowerPoint presentations for each lesson - editable worksheets to support student learning - technician requirements
