T Level Health - Exchange and Transport Mechanisms

This lesson plan on Cells - Exchange and Transport Mechanisms is designed for T Level Health students. It explores key concepts such as surface area-to-volume ratio, diffusion, osmosis, and active transport, linking them to biological adaptations and transport mechanisms in the human body.

The lesson includes a mix of interactive tasks, discussions, and assessments, ensuring students actively engage with the material. Differentiated activities support learners of varying abilities, with extension tasks for those who need more challenge and scaffolding for those who need additional support.

The session follows a structured approach, starting with a quick recall activity, moving through key content with worked examples and group research, and concluding with a plenary to consolidate learning. Assessment strategies include in-class questioning, peer teaching, and an optional written task.

This resource aligns with T Level Health specifications, providing a clear framework for understanding exchange and transport mechanisms in cells.
