I have been a secondary school science teacher for 9 years and have just started using more resources that pupils can use in their interactive notebooks. I have found these are going down very well with pupils and they are using them throughout the year to revise and recap. All my resources are tried and tested and are up to date with the new curriculum at KS3 and KS4.

Start/End of topic quiz/test for Acids and Alkalis - KS3

I use this with my year 7's to show progress and to plan for future lessons. At the start of the topic they do the test by just highlighting the answers they think, we quickly mark and make a note of what they get. At the end of the topic we do the test again to show how far they've come. It's really motivational for lower ability students as they might get lower marks but they usually always make progress which boosts confidence. See my other resources for similar tests.

Meiosis Foldable

(0)
A single sheet to create a meiosis folding step by step revision aid. You only need to print on one side to save on photocopying and pupils can either stick the steps on the inside or the outside depending on how they want to learn or revise it. This has gone down very well with my year 10 and 11's. I should note this does not include the actual phases as it is designed for the new 2016 GCSE specification.
