Practical write up support sheets.
Students focus on planning, results, conclusion and evaluating with these prompts. Introducing terms like dependent/independent variable; control variable and anomalous results.
Students are shown how to set up results tables and graphs.
There are prompt questions for the conclusion and evaluation.
These sheets help develop student´s confidence when planning and writing up scientific investigations.
The ONLINE Asylum escape room focuses on movement of substances in and out of cells.
It matches the IGCSE Edexcel specification but can be used with any specification focusing on the following specification points:
understand the processes of diffusion, osmosis and active transport by which
substances move into and out of cells
understand how factors affect the rate of movement of substances into and out of cells, including the effects of surface area to volume ratio and concentration gradient
practical: investigate diffusion and osmosis using living and non-living systems
Digital Escape rooms are an interactive activity which promote both individual learning and peer collaboration through problem solving.
Each escape room has a range of activities to challenge the students whilst also covering the specification.
The escape room focuses on the IGCSE specification. This means they are an excellent resource to use a revision tool. All the activities are online, eliminating the need for printing materials.
Students will be given a link to access the digital escape room. There is a timer included in the challenge but can be ignored as it has no effect on the outcome.
You do not need to provide an email address or have a google account to access the material. Escape rooms can be completed on laptops, tablets
and mobile phones so they can be set as homework or used in cover lessons.
Students enjoy working through the challenges with a partner but they can be completed alone.
Students will need to look closely at the images on the link. Once clicked, the image links to a clue or activity which needs to be completed in the lock form.
The lock form aids the student by providing direction as to which images to click.
Answers should be written in CAPITAL letters and no spaces between the numbers.
There is a teacher answer sheet provided if you need to guide students.
The ONLINE Doctor Who escape room focuses on photosynthesis.
It matches the IGCSE Edexcel specification but can be used with any specification focusing on the following specification points:
understand the process of photosynthesis and its importance in the conversion of light energy to chemical energy
know the word equation and the balanced chemical symbol equation for
photosynthesis
understand how varying carbon dioxide concentration, light intensity and temperature affect the rate of photosynthesis
describe the structure of the leaf and explain how it is adapted for photosynthesis
understand that plants require mineral ions for growth, and that magnesium ions are needed for chlorophyll and nitrate ions are needed for amino acids
practical: investigate photosynthesis, showing the evolution of oxygen from a water plant, the production of starch and the requirements of light, carbon dioxide and chlorophyll

The ONLINE Scooby Doo escape room focuses on Biological Molecules.
It matches the A level Edexcel specification but can be used with any specification focusing on the following specification points:
understand the importance of water as a solvent in transport, including its
dipole nature
know the difference between monosaccharides, disaccharides and
polysaccharides, including glycogen and starch (amylose and amylopectin)
be able to relate the structures of monosaccharides, disaccharides and
polysaccharides to their roles in providing and storing energy
Use a semi-quantitative method with Benedict’s reagent to estimate the
concentrations of reducing sugars
know how monosaccharides (glucose, fructose and galactose) join together to form disaccharides (maltose, sucrose and lactose) and polysaccharides (glycogen, amylose and amylopectin) through condensation reactions forming glycosidic bonds, and how these can be split through hydrolysis reactions
know how a triglyceride is synthesised by the formation of ester bonds during
condensation reactions between glycerol and three fatty acids
know the differences between saturated and unsaturated lipids

The ONLINE find the exam Escape Room focuses on gas exchange and respiration in humans.
It matches the IGCSE Edexcel specification but can be used with any specification focusing on the following specification points:
Describe the differences between aerobic and anaerobic respiration
Know the word equation and the balanced chemical symbol equation for aerobic respiration in living organisms
Know the word equation for anaerobic respiration in plants and in animals
Practical: investigate the evolution of carbon dioxide and heat from respiring seeds or other suitable living organisms
Describe the structure of the thorax, including the ribs, intercostal muscles,
diaphragm, trachea, bronchi, bronchioles, alveoli and pleural membranes
Understand the role of the intercostal muscles and the diaphragm in ventilation
Explain how alveoli are adapted for gas exchange by diffusion between air in the lungs and blood in capillaries
Understand the biological consequences of smoking in relation to the lungs and the circulatory system, including coronary heart disease
