For the OCR A level biology specification. As part of this topic I also teach the heart rate PAG 11 and use this to teach student’s t-test. I have included the handout I give students for you to adapt if you wish, this has lots of summary questions, exam questions, revision activities and lined paper in the back to allow for flexibility. It is suitable to print as an A4 booklet. Lessons include: The need for communication - recapping relevant parts of the spec 3.1.4, 2.1.6, 3.1.2 Principles of homeostasis Controlling temperature in endotherms Controlling temperature in ectotherms Student’s t-test including past paper questions linked to PAGs 4,8 and 10 and recap of standard deviation. PAG 11 (3 lessons) Investigate the effect of exercise on HR using student’s t-test Revision - podcast revision activity, revision grid sheet and QR code to exam questions I hope you find this useful and I really value your feedback.

For the OCR A level biology specification. I have included the handout (56 pages) I give to students as a printed A4 booklet but you may adapt as you wish, this has lots of summary questions, exam questions and lined paper in the back to allow for flexibility. The lessons are in one power point, divided into sections for each lesson. A lot of consideration has gone into the clear diagrams, animations, linking to other parts of the specification and morph transitions to give a slick presentation. Lessons include: Sensory receptors including the Pacinian corpuscle Types of neurone Generation of the resting potential Generating an action potential Refractory period Synapses Neurotransmitters and drugs Revision - revision grid, glossary and study mind questions sets with QR codes to question papers and mark schemes I hope you find this useful and I really value your feedback - more module 5 available and more on the way

Module 4 Revision grids. 9 x A4 pages in total 4.1.1 x4 4.2.1 x2 4.2.2 x3 Top features include: QR code - takes students to multiple choice quiz from the OCR QR code for useful videos QR code to questions on Seneca maths elements PAG elements checks key terminology *Checks ability to draw key diagrams Links to other parts of the spec where appropriate The activity is designed to check that students have an understanding of the topic and encourages independent working. I advise my students to use notes or a textbook before asking the teacher if they do not know the answer. Each side takes students roughly an hour to complete. I have used as homeworks, support sessions, revision lessons private study tasks and printed on card and cut to use as revision cards All other topics available. Please note, answers not yet available but are in the pipeline!!

Made using the new spec for OCR Biology A 2.1.3 Nucleotides and nucleic acids topic Lessons included: Nucleic acids, DNA and RNA Polynucleotides ATP and ADP Structure of DNA Purification of DNA DNA replication The genetic code Transcription Translation Revision - MCQs from OCR website PAG 10 - use OCR instructions Please see other A level resources and bundles. Feedback welcome

These lessons are suitable for Trilogy Biology. A power point including 7 lessons and includes a student booklet with all resources needed. There are 4 lined pages at the back to allow for flexibility. Photosynthesis 2-3. RPA Photosynthesis investigation and inverse square law Aerobic respiration Anaerobic respiration Metabolic rate Summary using quick questions and podcast activity Lots more lessons available, all AQA biology units as well as revision grids for mock and exam preparation. A huge amount of effort has gone into these resources and your feedback is greatly appreciated.

I have been creating podcasts to help students revise the OCR A level Biology content. I created this work sheet to use alongside the podcast - I usually do all 4 sheets sheets on one double sided A3 sheet. Students spend 10-15 minutes answering the questions first, listen to the podcast and mark their answers, adding any additional detail that they need in the extra box. The podcast is about 46 minutes long and this activity would fill an hour for lesson time or homework More podcasts added regularly. A lot of work has gone into these resources and your feedback is really valued.

I have been creating podcasts to help students revise the A level Biology content. I created this work sheet to use alongside the podcast - I usually do both sheets on one side of A3. Students spend 10-15 minutes answering the questions first, listen to the podcast and mark their answers, adding any additional detail that they need in the extra box. The podcast is about 16 minutes long and this activity would fill approx 45-50 mins More podcasts added regularly. A lot of work has gone into these resources and your feedback is really valued.
