Posters are clean, professional, and linked exclusively to the AQA specification. Students respond well to these summarised revision materials which can be used in conjunction with lessons, or as part of revision lessons. Also included is a key terms checklist for students to red, amber, green, as per the AQA specification definitions and mark schemes.

This worksheet (with answers) allows students to tick whether each organelles is found in animal, plant, or bacterial cells. This can be effectively used in conjunction with extended writing comparing eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms.

This lesson includes content following AQA GCSE Biology Specification for the structure and function of tissues within the leaf - waxy cuticle, epidermis, palisade and spongy mesophyll, stomata, guard cells, xylem and phloem. The lesson includes many activities for a range of abilities, including GCSE mini whiteboard questions, match-up activities, and a scaffolded extended response resource. This lesson is appropriate for a range of groups, with SEND-friendly approach reducing cognitive overload in a challenging topic.

This lesson includes content following AQA GCSE Biology Specification for the structure and function of xylem and phloem (AKA the vascular bundle). The lesson includes many activities for a range of abilities, including GCSE mini whiteboard questions, match-up activities, and a exam questions to support exam accessibility. This lesson is appropriate for a range of groups, with SEND-friendly approach reducing cognitive overload in a challenging topic.

A thorough revision resource (156 slides) to last approximately 3 hours. This revision booster is very visual and follows the AQA specification. The resource contains teacher-led explanation, GCSE mutliple choice questions for AFL, student tasks, and a complete revision poster at the end of the slides for students to follow along with. Topics include: Cells (Eukaryote and Prokaryote) Specialised Cells Microscopy Diffusion, Osmosis (and RP), Active transport Enzymes and Digestion Blood Vessels Blood Components Heart Respiratory System Photosynthesis and RP

Lesson following AQA GCSE Biology Paper 2: Homeostasis Reaction Time Required Practical. The lesson follows a thorough structure to support LPA/MPA students. Students are tasked to complete and evaluate the practical in line with the AQA Specification.

This lesson outlines the factors affecting the rate of transpiration for AQA GCSE Biology/combined science. The resource includes visual scaffolds to support learner progress and retention of key information. The resource is particularly effective for SEND learners.

This lesson includes content for AQA GCSE Biology (and combined science) for the ecology unit - competition, interdependence, and biotic and abiotic factors. There is a handy key terms checklist and an array of activities to support all levels. Students are given the opportunity to discuss, listen to teacher-led explanation, and answer questions independently following knowledge checks using GCSE multiple-choice questions. This lesson is suitable for all levels, with effective scaffold for LPA/MPA students where needed.

This resource revises key ideas of diffusion, osmosis, and active transport before applying these principles to the root hair cell. The resource is applicable for all abilities studying AQA GCSE Biology (and Combined science HT/FT). The resource includes visuals and animations to support students to access this tricky concept. Students are tasked in a variety of activities, including talking episodes, GCSE multiple choice questions, and exam application to support success.

This lesson follows the AQA GCSE Biology Specification for the Osmosis Required Practical. The lesson includes a step-by-step practical instruction and table. This setup allows students to easily follow the method and gain purpose for the practical enquiry. There are GCSE exam questions to use as AFL throughout and test for understanding. I hold no responsibility for risk assessments etc. - you as the teacher must ensure all safety precautions are adhered to in your own department for your students.

This lesson follows AQA GCSE Biology specification for adaptations in the variation and evolution unit. The lesson is sufficiently scaffolded to support LPA/MPA students, however has aspects of challenge to push HPAs. Students love the visual nature of the lesson which supports long term retrieval. These lessons are an effective and balanced mixture of teacher-led explanation, student AFL, student exam questions and pair discussions. There is a scaffolded extended writing activity toward the end of the lesson.

This lesson is a visual lesson on Charles Darwin’s theory of evolution by Natural Selection. Scaffolded enough to support LPA/MPA students, however has aspects of challenge to push HPAs. The lesson follows AQA GCSE Biology specification for Evolution by Natural Selection and is appropriate for a range of abilities. Students love the visual nature of the lesson which supports long term retrieval. These lessons are an effective and balanced mixture of teacher-led explanation, student AFL, student exam questions and pair discussions.

This lesson follows AQA GCSE Biology specification for causes of extinction in the variation and evolution unit. The lesson is sufficiently scaffolded to support LPA/MPA students, however has aspects of challenge to push HPAs. Students love the visual nature of the lesson which supports long term retrieval. These lessons are an effective and balanced mixture of teacher-led explanation, student AFL using GCSE Exam questions, student exam questions and pair discussions. There is a potential practical inquiry to observe tardigrades with an integrated instruction worksheet. Staff must take responsiblity for risk assessments within your own department, I hold no responsibility for this.
