This resource is a set of EAL worksheets for Biology for pupils aged 11-16. I have made these resources with a grammar focus, simplified language and emphasis of key words. The easiest sheets should allow pupils to match information about life processes only using underlined key words and pictures (very low English level). The activities are the following: - Cells cut and stick activity: Pupils have to match organelle name, function, what it is like, a diagram and photo. There are three different difficulty level. - Life processes glossary: There are 4 different difficulty levels for this glossary with words and definitions from the topic. Please note: image credit is given on the final page, make sure you don't print it!!

I made this for my low ability EAL Year 7 class who had NO PREVIOUS ALGEBRA KNOWLEDGE, AAAGH!! First they calculate answers to word problems, showing their working. Then they are given a structure to help them make the formula. Letters and numbers are highlighted to help with identification. Ties in to Key Maths 7 Chapter 9. Worked well with my class, they did everything on the mini whiteboard before writing on the book.

A powerpoint of all the common English very forms. Each page shows how to form that particular tense. Good as a prompt for EAL classes, I laminated them and the pupils have them on their desk to help structure their sentences.

This is a sheet with example cell diagrams from all of the 5 kingdoms as well as a virus diagram. Pupils have to complete examples from each kingdom and produce a Venn Diagram to show what the cells/kingdoms and viruses have in common (or not?!).

This is a quiz with questions that can be used to check pupils understanding of the Cells topic. The concepts included in this quiz are - Cell structure - Specialisation - Plant and animal cells - Diffusion - Osmosis - Magnification calculations These questions can be used one at a time as Hinge Point Questions during the lesson or at the end of topic to diagnose as a class areas that should be revised in more depth. Each question is designed to probe a specific common misunderstanding/misconception. PLEASE NOTE THERE IS NOW AN UPDATED VERSION An answer sheet is provided and on the second page it gives links to resources or ideas for activities for pupils to allow differentiation of the next activity/task after the quiz.

Here you have my planning document for a KS3 Microbes and Disease Unit. The cover page is a unit outline includes objectives for skills and content, cross curricular, language, ICT, differentiation, collaborative and independent learning. The following pages are lesson outlines with objectives, suggested activities including experiments and homework. They also include ideas for assessment opportunities. Please note worksheets are not included. This is a transition document as I have included the new National Curriculum objectives but assessment is still outlined using the APP criteria.

These revision guides are 95 pages long. They are composed of closed questions that cover every point of the 0654 syllabus for all three sciences. Pupils complete the revision guide by answering all the questions which gives them a summary of the whole course in one book. This is an essential revision tool and really helps pupils to structure their revision time and should improve their grades. You have access to 2 versions here, one for 2016 exams and another for 2017/2018 exams. The price of this resource is set high because you can make as many copies as you like for the pupils in your classes. This is considerably cheaper than buying the required number of copies of any revision guide book. PLEASE NOTE: THIS REVISION GUIDE DOES NOT INCLUDE ANSWERS/SOLUTIONS

This is a 29 page booklet that provides pupils with word lists for each of the first 12 Biology units, there is also a page left for them to do their own summary of the unit with key diagrams of organs/systems. I have identified past paper questions for each unit but due to copyright from Cambridge I cannot include them, though I have named them in the booklet e.g. March 2016 Paper 43 Q3. The topics in this booket are: 1. Characteristics and classification of living organisms 2. Organisation of the organism 3. Movement in and out of cells 4. Biological molecules 5. Enzymes 6. Plant nutrition 7. Human nutrition 8. Transport in plants 9. Transport in animals 10. Diseases and immunity 11. Gas exchange in humans 12. Respiration

I made this lesson to help my pupils improve their graph drawing and interpretation skills. It also helps them to understand the difference between correlation and causation. The lesson is based around an individual investigation into the correlation between two factors with other group/pair activities to assimilate the vocabulary. Key words: pattern, relationship, trend, scatter graph, prediction, correlation, positive correlation, negative correlation, no correlation, causation, increase (v), decrease (v), axis/axes, title, units, line of best fit, anomalous, cause (v), variables (v) indicates a verb
