Microscopes required practical
Three differentiated resources. Cant be used as homewowrk or for required practical revision. Good to use as a retreival resource after the practical.
Each differentiated resource has a space to write the required practical method, low level sheets have key words to guide them. Each resource has different exam questions dependent on level.
All answers included.
I print 2 sheets per side, back to back. Be careful if you shrink to A5 some of the answers for the magnfication questions will change as the image size measured will be different.
