A year 7 lesson designed as an introduction to some of the major organ systems. for the starter I drew an organ onto the torso and students wrote the name on their mini whiteboards.The idea of transplants and ethics is introduced. Slides 13 and 14 were printed onto one A4 sheet and given to all students. The statements were discussed as a class and students ticked the sheets. An opinion line was then formed in the class. Statements were discussed further to allow students to change their minds if they wished. Please rate & comment as appropriate.

A table for year 7 pupils to fill out on the properties of solids, liquids and gases. Under the title of the state of matter, the box is there for pupils to draw a particle diagram of the solids, liquid or gas. The worksheet is designed to be filled out and discussed as a whole class activity, and then pupils use this to classify substances which are typically difficult to classify. E.g custard, jelly, sand etc.

Designed for the lower ability end of a mid to low ability group of year 9 pupils as part of a Core, Challenge and Super-Challenge activity on combustion. The worksheets covers combustion, fuels, hydrocarbons, word equations and the combination of carbon with oxygen.

Designed for SEN year 9 class, but could be used for year 7 and 8 classes, also. Pupils match up the correct definition with the key word. Could be done as a cut and stick, or drawing a line.

Orginally designed for a high ability year 8 group to cut and stick the organisms, drawing lines to show the feeding relationships. The blank card was left for the pupils to draw the sun, but this could be taken out/sun drawn on for the pupils depending on ability. This activity was also used with an SEN year 9 class for revision. The cards were laminated and cut out for them, as were the arrows. Pupils then sorted the cards into simple food chains and expanded as they wished - these were then noted down in their books.

A CPD ppt created for a departmental meeting outlining some AfL techniques I commonly used. Could be useful for others looking for ideas or running in-house CPD on AfL, i.e on professional development days or for NQT/PGCE sessions in school.
