Learn more about the amazing Axolotl with this engaging & fun reading comprehension activity. This activity is designed to get students thinking about the adaptations of the Axolotl and its current conservation status through a simple reading comprehension activity. Included in this resource is: A Lesson plan outlining how I would teach the lesson. Teacher reflection questionnaire - ideal for trainee teachers or as evidence for more experienced teachers about the self-reflective practice. Axolotl fact file (Double-sided). Student worksheet (Double-sided) & includes exit ticket activity. Depending on your students reading age, this could take a whole lesson - it would depend how much you want to stretch the activity. Alternatively you could use it as a shorter, team based activity, getting students to work in pairs to read the content together. Reading comprehension is an important skill for students to master in science. By including interesting and quirky animals, I hope to boost my students love for reading non-fiction. This activity is perfect for home learning as well as face to face teaching.

Designed for introducing your KS3 students to ecosystems and the idea of food chains and food webs. This lesson plan is fully prepped covering key vocabulary such as the definition of producers, consumers, decomposers etc. What is included: In this file you get the lesson powerpoint and a corresponding keyword list with definitions included, you also get a knowledge organiser to help students throughout the topic. I have left the design simple but editable - this is due to schools in my area having specific requirements around colours and fonts. Literacy Skills: This lesson has a literacy task where students analyse the impact of removing a species from a food chain. A model answer is provided and then a similar question for the students to attempt. The goal is for students to be able to write extended pieces with confidence. The lesson plan follows the following 4 phase structure: Activate: 6 recall questions designed to get the students either retrieving previous knowledge linked to this or prior topics. These have been designed with my students in mind - they may look different for your students! Model: Set the scene for the lesson and outline key new knowledge. Show students how to approach a question or task. Practice: Give the students opportunities to use the new knowledge provided and attempt the tasks modeled in phase 2. Review: Check students grasp of new concepts with a quick review activity.
