This resource has 9 6 mark questions to help with the notoriously bad sucess students have with these questions There are 3 biology examples - photosynthesis, reflex arc and food tests. There are 3 chemistry examples - copper sulphate salts, LCA evaluation and rusting. There are 3 physics examples - density, resistance in a wire and refraction. The PowerPoint has a generic section about how to complete a 6 marker, glossary and then each example has a student sheet and the powerpoint has hints to help write them and then the mark scheme. The PP is fully interactive and you can navigate through the PP with ease with movement keys.

This PowerPoint has 6 film picture quizzes (with answers) and interactive format that allows you to go back and forth to the different quizzes in any order you want. The 6 categories are Comedy Films Action Films Horror Films Superhero Films Animated Films Sci-Fi Films Great for end of year class fun, in the classroom and virtually over Zoom / MS Teams or with the family.

This is lesson 7 of 7 lessons that can be used in part or whole to teach the biology topic of interdependence in animals and plants. This lesson explains how to use the graphs of predator and population graphs. Modeling how to read the graph and why populations go up and down. After the modeling there is opportunity for pupils to apply their knowledge to a new graph. Challenge brings in the influence of seasons on populations. These lessons are not board specific and can be used (dependent on ability) from KS3 and KS4. Lesson 7 - Predator Prey Population Graphs (THIS LESSON) THESE ARE ALSO AVAILABLE TO BUY Lesson 1 - Interdependence & Biodiversity Lesson 2 - Sampling Plants (Quadrats) Lesson 3 - Abundance of Animals (sampling techniques) Lesson 4 - Competition in Animals Lesson 5 - Competition & Adaptations in Plants Lesson 6 - Adaptations in Animals Each lesson has a interactive PowerPoint that has a starter and comprehensive explanations that will allow for questioning and discussion. There is a pupil worksheet (both in Publisher for editing, and PDF forms). The worksheet mirrors what has been taught in the lesson. There is a question (and a mark scheme) that can be used to consolidate the learning in the lesson or as homework. The lesson is labeled in the CLF (common lesson format) so pupils are aware of what that section is about.

This is lesson 6 of 7 lessons that can be used in part or whole to teach the biology topic of interdependence in animals and plants. This lesson explains how animals are adapted to survive. The scaffolding is to identify the adaptations, then how those adaptations help it survive a predator or catch a prey. The worksheet builds on the modeling done earlier. There is also a sheet that gives pupils scope for artistic flair by building their own predator or prey and how the adaptations help them. Challenge looks at how the adaptations in the wrong environment don’t help it. These lessons are not board specific and can be used (dependent on ability) from KS3 and KS4.

This is lesson 5 of 7 lessons that can be used in part or whole to teach the biology topic of interdependence in animals and plants. This lesson explains what plants compete for to survive. Modeling gives examples of plants and how they get space, light, water. After the modeling there is opportunity for pupils to apply their knowledge to new examples. Look at how some plants adapt to live in very hot environments. Challenge looks at how leaves are different on different plants and how they help them survive.

This is lesson 4 of 7 lessons that can be used in part or whole to teach the biology topic of interdependence in animals and plants. This lesson explains what animals compete for. Modeling each of the competitions and how they get food, mates and territory. Looks at behavior of animals to be successful. Inter and intraspecific competition is covered. Challenge looks at some of the behavior of cuckoo birds in ensuring their survival. . These lessons are not board specific and can be used (dependent on ability) from KS3 and KS4.

This is lesson 3 of 7 lessons that can be used in part or whole to teach the biology topic of interdependence in animals and plants. This lesson explains how invertebrates can be captured and released. Modeling shows why the different techniques are used in those habitats. It touches on the ethics of handling captured animals too. The Lesson looks at what capturing animals tells us about the environment. Challenge looks at how some animals can be living indicators of pollution levels.

I have put together ‘mastery booklets’ that can be used for independent study for pupils to use after a section of the course has been covered. They are designed (with past paper questions and the answers) for the students to complete themselves. This is to help them gain a deeper knowledge without impacting on teacher workload. All the teacher needs to do is record when the students have completed and annotated the booklet. I have split the 8 sections into the topics for the paper 1 and the paper 2 - the 8th booklet is just topics for students taking GCSE Physics. These could be used for cover work and revision before the exams. Hope they’re useful, if they are please leave a positive review. Harret

I have created an assessment analysis tool that can be used for any test up to 20 questions in length. The Excel sheet is primarily designed for science but could be redesigned for other subjects. A sheet is used to enter the year, title, question type, question marks and question description. The % at which levels are given can be changed to suit the year, assessment test in question. All of these will be used to generate a report. The report will have individual information about a students progress in the test. The data generated will be - Total, %, Residual, Level (9-1), Levels of Progress and Progress label. Depending on how well students did for individual questions, the report will highlight which areas (where a student achieved 50% or less of the marks available) students need work on to get them to standard. The test is broken down into the individual science aspects so that staff, pupils and parents can be aware of the strengths and weaknesses of individuals so that areas can be addressed where the standard is below what is expected. TO SEE WITHOUT PAYING - you can download the instructions. I have attached the instructions for the sheet that shows how the sheet works and examples of the generated Mail Merge report. This sheet will not only inform staff, pupils and parents but save time for the staff and be an invaluable tool in identifying areas to help pupils reach their targets.

This is lesson 10 of a set of 10 lessons that cover 4.6.3 and 4.6.4 of the new GCSE AQA Biology curriculum. It follows the Oxford book chapter 15 in its chronology. Each lesson has an interactive PowerPoint, a pupil worksheet(s) linked to the work in the PowerPoint and a linked past paper question with mark scheme (the Publisher original of the worksheet is also added so you differentiate accordingly should you wish). The PowerPoint has a starter that leads on from the previous lessons learning. The student worksheet incorporates the learning in the lesson. The worksheets can be used to show progress and/or be cut up and stuck in books to avoid unnecessary diagram drawing etc. and use the time for deeper understanding. The 10 lessons can be bought individually or as a bundle for the lot.
