Mini worksheet to help low ability pupils consider how to answer a 6 mark GCSE exam question. The format provides very structured guidance in how to answer the question and make 6 points by providing a clear marking scheme at the bottom. A good introduction to answering 6 mark questions and considering answers a little more.

A quiz in which pupils identify whether a chemical is an acid, base or salt, and identify the new hazard symbols with their name. I used this presentation alongside the colour-coded worksheet to aid a low ability year 10 group in identifying chemicals from their names and symbols.

Simple worksheet covering the key points regarding the early atmosphere.

A4 poster designed to help pupils revise Light, Sound and a little chemistry. Was originally designed to summarise a few Year 8 topics in the Exploring Science scheme of work, but summarises a few key general ideas and practises a couple of key skills. Useful for a cover lesson, research skills from the textbook or summarising topics.

Small labelling worksheet to identify some uses and effects of plant hormones.

Images to create a small flipbook demonstrating the nerves that are active in the reflex arc. Pupils can cut out the pieces and staple together to a flipbook (or get the awesome reprographics guy to sort it), and then pupils can colour in the nerve that is active (first sensory, then reflex, then motor - and then the hand is removed as the effector muscle is active) to show the direction and action of each nerve. NB: Cutting off the bottom right hand corner at an angle makes the book easier to 'flick&'. :)

Booklet with different activities to summarise the key ideas of biological, chemical and physical weathering. The front cover then provides an opportunity for pupils to demonstrate their learning with their own diagrams.

To be used alongside the following YouTube videos, this booklet contains questions that can be answered whilst watching the videos, and then pupils may draw a cartoon strip of formation on the front to show understanding. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xZ1HIBIIJU0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BQ_Ethb6_Wk [I do not own, did not create, take no credit for and have nothing to do with these videos except googling for them, but the worksheet is designed to go with them and they are great! :) ]

Quick activity for pupils to identify the everyday examples of first, second and third class lever, and then identify and label the components of each.

To accompany a practical session using flame sprays, flame tests and making sparklers with iron filings. Was used with a Primary Liaison group but would work with a KS3 group. It's a brilliantly fun practical!!

Labels to help set up a 'Light Circus&' - using different practical stations around the classroom. Pupils circulate the stations using equipment such as lenses, lights, prisms and mirrors. Pupils then answer the accompanying questions and fill out the attached A3 worksheet with their answers and observations from each station. Includes occasional challenge questions for higher ability pupils.

Pupils are asked to draw onto the 8 images, creating a cartoon strip of a convection current. This is then cut out into cards and stapled together at the left side. This should then be able to be flipped quickly to show the movement of particles.

Pupils are given a card each (half the class predators and half the class prey) and asked to design their own made-up animal with as many adaptations as possible. Once complete, the pupils are then able to walk around the class and have a 'pokemon-style&' battle with the opposite type animal; comparing features to decide who would win... Would the predator manage to kill the prey or would the prey get away?!

Begins with a 15 image quiz where pupils must identify the animals as one of the five classes of vertebrate, followed by the answers. Followed by an activity where pupils select the identifying features of each class and put them into a table. Finishes with a short plenary using 'Who Am I?&' riddles to identify each class from its features.
