I have been teaching science for over 30 years. although Biology is my specialism I have lots of experience of teaching Physics and Chemistry to GCSE. I am particularly interested in practical work and believe that all science teachers should be able to teach good practicals and give practical demos.

Question and answer cards for A level respiration

(3)
For Biology A level students to help them review and revise respiration - glycolysis Link reaction, Kreb’s cycle and the electron transport chain. The cards have questions on the front and answers on the back. I used it with my A level Biology class as a review of respiration. It took them 10 mins, asking each other questions and worked well. More detail on how I used it at https://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?rinli=1&blogID=3310269823409632851#allpost ​ where you can find more free resources.

This is an extensive resource. It contains activities and worksheets that are differentiated and have answer sheets so they are easy to mark in class and you can check the student's learning. There are numeracy and literacy tasks involved. One task goes over the relationship between size and surface area which is a key concept in science. The main activity involves independent research. The starter has an interesting example of an ancient use of nanotechnology which is surprising. There are references to videos to show about nanotechnology and other resources that can be used for extension/homework. This resource is suitable for GCSE students. It is especially matched to the new AQA Science scheme of work.

This is for KS3 students to give them practice at collecting and analysing data. It proved to be very effective with a mixed ability group of Year 7 students. Although there is just one document there is enough here to keep a class busy for an hour and they are practising maths skills essential to science and some scientific skills as well

This is intended for a low-ability group. It did work well with my bottom-set group. Not surprisingly they did not do well on the question 9 about whether they should believe the facts and figures - but it could open up discussion.
