Differentiated throughout. Learning Objectives: Describe the way illness was dealt with in the earliest time periods Explain why survival rate improved Compare methods of surgery in different time periods

New GCSE lesson on contraception for the AQA syllabus. Differentiated throughout and homework set at the end of the lesson (also included). Used a photocopy of the text book for them to get the information for the different contraception methods. Learning Objectives: Describe different contraceptive methods Explain the advantages and disadvantages of different methods Compare the use of different contraceptive methods in different types of women

The resource contains a range of activities which offer and introduction to the topic. The lesson covers the digestive system and the circulatory system

Lesson on digestive system and enzymes. Worksheets included.

The resource contains a wide range of worksheets which will prepare students for year 1 or year 2 exams. There are sheets for many of the target functional groups and questions on multi stage syntheses

A GCSE physics lesson on the evidence of the big bang used with a KS4 class. Covers doppler effect and red shift. I also had students running outside pretending to be a ambulance to demonstrate the doppler effect.

This revision activity is designed for Year 11 students in the lead up to their GCSE exams. The resource is a two-sided task, which contains the key principles of each practical. The task could be an excellent revision lesson

New GCSE lesson on natural selection for the AQA syllabus. Includes exam questions related to the content. Learning Objectives: Describe what is natural selection Explain how natural selection can create new species Suggest how evolution occurs

New GCSE lesson on hydrocarbons and introducing alkanes to the students. When looking at the different properties of the different length hydrocarbon chains the practical demo I did was to show them 'short chain' alkanes and 'long chain' alkanes and compare the two. The students then wrote down the results a table which is shown in the lesson. Learning Objectives: Describe what crude oil is and where it has come from Draw out and identify alkanes using molecular and displayed formulae Explain the properties of different chain length alkanes

These sheets are to help students revise the required practicals that they need to know now for the new GCSE specifications. They could be used with Year 10 or 11. Each sheet has differentiated questions. They could be used in lessons, for homework or in extended days for Year 11 students.
