Over a decade of teaching experience to KS3 and KS4 secondary school pupils, of varying needs and abilities, and 8 years as a Director of Learning for Science. My resources have been produced with passion for the job that I do, making the subject accessible and relevant to all. The majority of my PowerPoints are designed to incorporate successful strategies from Doug Lemov's Teach Like A Champion. I hope my resources will save colleagues precious time in the planning of their own lessons.

Light and sound concept cartoon

Scanned from my sketch book. This activity is a great way to summarise a topic and challenge pupils on a range of concepts covered. Pupils should write the name of each character, decide whether they agree or disagree with the statement and justify their decision. This can be used to promote pupil discussion in the classroom. The imagery in the middle of the sheet can be used to help pupils make their decisions. Tips: Replace the names of the characters with pupils in your own class by putting a sticky note over the top and writing in :) After printing, trim the bottom and side for a perfect fit for pupil exercise books :)

Scanned from my sketchbook. This worksheet includes practice exam style questions, including those that address practical skills required at GCSE. This would be ideal to use as a follow on from experimental work on reflection. After printing, trim the side and bottom for the perfect fit for pupils exercise books :)
Science revision - Key concepts in GCSE Science (1)

Science revision - Key concepts in GCSE Science (1)

(0)
This document includes a series of commonly asked questions at GCSE (as well as mark schemes), edited to change scenarios and allow for printing on as fewer pages as possible. Can be used for revision or as weekly homeworks. Questions focus on key concepts/essential content assessed across all three Science disciplines. Such as: Atomic structure and subatomic particles Electron configurations Isotopes The periodic table Cells and their structures Microscopes Enzymes Forces and motion (linked to energy transfers) Distance/time graphs Potential energy Note: If you would like to track pupils’ performance in relation to content over time, my ‘Key concepts in GCSE Science’ bundle can be used alongside a Question Level Analysis of your class(es) on Edexcel (i.e. RAG rating performance in different areas over time).

Science revision - analysing and interpreting data

(0)
This booklet contains 20 pages of exam questions across all three Science disciplines. Questions are initially annotated to support pupils with how to go about answering the question, followed by scaffolding for answers. Similar style questions then follow for pupils to attempt without the scaffolding (as would be the case in exams). Model answers are also included in places and mark schemes can be found at the end of the document. The following questions styles are covered within the document (which can be printed in booklet form): Scatter graphs e.g. enzyme action, potential difference-current-resistance Bar charts e.g. non-communicable diseases Graphs relating to core practicals e.g. acceleration with trolleys Questions where more than one graph must be referred to e.g. carbon dioxide and temperature over time, the menstrual cycle Tabulated data with questioning related to proportional relationships
