Lesson powerpoint
Lesson worksheets and resources
These lessons have been created for the New Combined Science Trilogy course and are linked to the new AQA specification.
Each lesson varies in its content and are sold individually but they are also available as a complete BUNDLE (see bundles and SAVE).
Lessons include:
- Lesson Plan – a clear overview of the lesson, links to specification, three main objectives, keywords, resources, starters, 3 main activities and plenaries. Ideas are also included for differentiation for lower and more able students.
- PowerPoint – with lesson objectives and keywords on each slide.
- Additional resources – printable sheets for starters/plenaries/investigations.
- Support sheets – guidance for demonstrations and practical activities
All of these lessons will be continually updated and so please continue to revisit these resources for the most up to date resources.
If you have purchased the draft specification lessons, please email for the instructions on how to get your lessons updated to the new specification – orders@achieveinscience.com

Topics covered: fractional distillation, alkanes, alkenes, ethanol production, polymers, plant oils, saturated and unsaturated fats, emulsions, wegner's theory, earth structure, tectonics, earth's atmopshere
AQA Physics Core (P1) Revision Flash Cards:
Question one slide and then answer on the reverse. Focuses students on the key questions in the various units covered. These can be printed or downloaded on to a phone to allow students to regularly access them.
Topics covered: heat transfer, conduction, convection, radiation, kinetic theory, evaporation, condensation, thermal flask, u-values, specific heat capacity, energy, energy resources, renewable, non-renewable, conservation of energy, electricity, power station, waves, electromagnetic spectrum, reflection, refraction, diffraction, sound, CMBR, red shift, blue shift
Revision loop card activity for Core Physics. Students need to cut out the cards and then sequence them so that the question on one card matches the answer on the next one. If the student get them correct, it will form a loop.
The answer sheet is also provided so that you can quickly check response and identify any mistakes made by the student(s).
A great activity to challenge students - who is quickest; to assess students and highlight misconceptions.
Loop cards include questions about:
energy types, energy resources, national grid, power stations, renewable, non-renewable,

Loop cards include questions about:
Waves, amplitude, wavelength, frequency, pitch, electromagnetic waves, microwaves, radio waves, ultra violet, IR, gamma
The idea works that students should know the core building blocks around the edge of the page. The task therefore is to summarise these key points in the middle, only focusing on the things they have forgotten:
The final task is to get this all on to a postcard - their revision notes to take away! This makes it all manageable for the student.
Topics covered:
Cells, enzymes, specialised cell, digestion, genes, mitosis, meiosis, chromosomes, bile, pancreas, villi,
Progress monitoring booklets for Further Additional Science - Chemistry C3
A list of the various objectives for each of the topics in the Further Additional Science Unit.
Students can show progress against what they know about a topic at the start and then at the end of a unit. This can then be used to produce a personalised revision programme for the student.
Alternative way of being used, is to print on stickers and use in books.

The idea works that students should know the foundation building blocks around the edge of the page.
The task therefore is to work inwards and begin to summarise these key points in the middle, only focusing on the things they have forgotten.

This task is designed for students to work backwards and reduce their notes for revision. Around the outside of the page are the key facts and information that are needed for the topic. Students need to condense these and/or find out more about these and make notes in the white space. Finally students then need to highlight the keywords and put then in the box in the centre.
The format is designed to convince students that they do not need to make pages and pages of notes and instead can put all their notes on the back of a post card.
This task is great followed up by a loop card activity to test knowledge or apply straight to some exam questions.
