Presentation
Past paper Qs and Mark schemes
A KS3 resource, in this instance was delivered to a mixed ability year 8 group. The lesson covers DNA in a good amount of detail, without going into the unneeded complexities of base pairing, the technical naming of structures etc. May be a good resource to revise DNA with low ability KS4 exam groups also.
Students will explore the work of Watson & Crick, before considering the use of DNA and prior learning covered on cells which don’t fit the pattern in terms of DNA or chromosomes.
Students will visit the idea of mutations, and consider what they are, using a simple letter replacement game (they can design their own after seeing the example (challenge).
Finally followed by some past question practice (GCSE AO1)>
`This lesson is fully differentiated, with extension and challenge throughout’
A resource outlining all 10 required practicals, with links to suitable videos to remove the need to re-do all practicals (impossible in one or two lessons). Each slide is simply laid out to prompt students with ‘possible questions’ and an overview from a video, of the practical.
The resource is divided into Paper 1 & paper 2, so you could deliver it over 2 lessons. I have also included the new AQA key command words, many of which are relevant to practicals, for students to do as a long starter type task, identifying what would be expected if they saw each word in a Q.
the resource also clearly identifies which resources are not required for trilogy (also synergy).
Lesson 1 of the 9-1 AQA GCSE spec for inheritance. Covers reproductive organs, fertilization and sexual vs asexual reproduction. Includes PPQs and differentiated tasks throughout.
