This resource guides a-level biologists through plant and animal life cycles and how they rely on the production of gametes. Students then walk through the process of meiosis before looking in detail at the process of crossing-over and non-disjunction and how this leads to variation. Stretch, challenge and lateral thinking questions are embedded throughout. This is a resource been made to be picked up and used by any teacher. AQA Biology

This resource guides a-level biologists through the idea of gene mutations including substitution and deletion. We link back to the degenerate code and discuss how some mutations may be silent before working through some chromosome mutations and their consequences.

This bundle is aimed at introducing the new year 7 students into KS3 Science at the start of the academic year. I have broken this induction down into 3 lessons: Lesson 1 - Introductions Lesson 2 - Health & Safety Lesson 3 - Equipment Lesson 1 introduces the students to their new class teacher before showing them what topics they will be studying in Biology, Chemistry and Physics within the Exploring Science curriculum. The lessons then explores some simple classroom/lab rules before guiding students through how to set up their exercise book. Lesson 2 explores the idea of health and safety in the lab. The Do’s and Don’ts of learning in a science lab followed but a fun and engaging game of ‘Who Wants to Be A Millionaire’ - Science Lab Edition. Students are then introduced into hazard symbols before engaging in a Minion based lab safety poster task. Lesson 3 gets students learning the names of, handling and drawing a range of scientific lab equipment they will be using during their KS3 experience. These lessons are accompanied with booklet for students to complete during lesson 2 and 3. Enjoy.
