(0)
GCSE Biology ppt covering Blood pressure, what is it, systole, diastole, high and low Bp. Includes a literacy class activity where they have to watch the ppt, then read the information in the task sheet. They then have to make a poster, or class notes on Bp, under 4 specific headings. The worksheets can be used as starters, plenarys, home works, or just as a quick test next lesson. Thank you for looking at my resource.

This is a 9 slide power point on Respiration. I use this with my Foundation & GCSE Double award class as a class presentation and as a starter for my Triple Group. With Triple groups you will only need to include the chemical equation for respiration and go into more detail with respect to ATP, which is not required for double award. It includes aerobic and anaerobic respiration, differences between the two, the word equations, release of energy (ATP), oxygen debt and RQ quotient.

GCSE Biology - Ecosystem Keyterms /Definitions ppt, Fill In Sheet & W/sheet

(0)
This is a power point explaining all of the key terms related to ecosystems with exam terminology and great pictures and diagrams. I uploaded this onto my school system as a homework to test students on all of the key terms and what they mean. I have also used a plenary to lessons and as revision at the end of the unit. Also, found this really helpful with GCSE foundation/SEN groups; as the term are easily read and the pictures are bright and eye catching. The work sheet has every key word written and students just fill in the definitions. They can then stick the sheet in the front of their books. The second worksheet is for a class activity, or a home work and sets students tasks to complete on ecosystems, predator - prey relationships, etc. The following terms are stated: classification (artificial and natural), evolutionary trees, binomial system (genus & species), habitat, ecosystem, producer, consumer, pyramid of numbers, biomass , predator, prey, equation foe energy transfer in food chains, energy loss through food chains, parasites, mutualism, interspecific and intraspecific relationships, adaptations (specialists, generalists, extremophiles, anatomical and behavioural adaptations).
