AQA GCSE Biology - Thermoregulation

This is a 1 hour lesson resource designed for a mixed ability year 11 class studying the AQA GCSE Biology topic ‘Homeostasis’.
This lesson focuses on thermoregulation, and the mechanisms of controlling body temperature by homeostasis.

My lesson resources always contain:

• A 5-in-5 retrieval-style starter
• An interesting lesson hook, careers link, or retrieval practice to start the lesson
• Teacher input slides with dual coding and reduced cognitive load
• Teacher models
• Regular ‘check for understanding’ slides, such as hand signals quizzes
• Regular student independent practice slides, with optional scaffolds, challenges and answer slides
• A plenary task
