Primary succession 6. Recap sampling methods, species evenness and richness and Simpson’s index 7. PAG - Sampling

7 student instruction sheets for each case study needed for the 6.3.2 part of the specification. (Masai Mara, Terai region in Nepal, peat bogs, Galapagos islands, Snowdonia, Lake district The task is to create a 20 minute lesson about a particular region. You need to cover: Ecosystem Farming ( both grazing and cultivation) Ecotourism Conservation and research Compare the positive and negative impacts of tourism on the area.

For the new OCR A level biology specificaiton. I have included the handout I give students for you to adapt if you wish. It is not necessary to do all of the PAGs depending on what you have already done throughout the course. 1a. Natural clones 1b. PAG 4 Stem dissection 2. micropropagation 3. Cauliflower cloning (SAPS) 4.Cloning in animals 5. Biotechnological processes (includes the info cards) 6.Aseptic technique 7. PAG 7.1 – The effect of antibiotics on microbial growth (OCR worksheets) 8.PAG 7.2  Dilution plating to determine microbial density in liquid culture (OCR worksheets) 9. Growth curves 10.immobilised enzymes 11. Industrial uses of immobilised enzymes The PAGS used are available for free on the OCR website or SAPS (link given).

For the new KS3 - using AQA specification 11-12 lessons included with resources in separate ppt 1. Variation within and species 2. Continuous and discontinuous variation 3. Heredity 4. Chromosomes, genes and DNA 5. The DNA model (optional extra research lesson on double helix discovery) 6. Adaptation - predators and prey 7. Adaptation , cold, hot and dry 8. Natural selection and evolution 9. Selective breeding 10. Extinction and biodiversity 11 Revision

This resource is differentiated by task and also by time to be spent on each. Red activities = hardest, Orange = medium demand Green = easy The stars represent the time to be spent on each ( I change this depending on the ability of the group/ student e.g. each star represents 2 minutes) I usually display on the board and students work on A3 or print for lower ability classes. Could cut up and use as flashcards

For the new AQA specification. Suitable for Triple Biology, all lessons spec referenced Contains a student booklet for notes with diagrams and questions to complete. 1. Pathogens circus information grab - print information cards and put on desks/wall. 2. Non-specific defence system - set up antibiotic discs 3. White blood cells 4. Vaccinations 5. Painkillers and antibiotics and review agar plates 6. Discovery and development of drugs 7. Monoclonal antibodies (biology only) 8. Plant disease (biology only) 9. Plant defence (biology only) 10 Summary/revision - check point, quick quiz and podcast Lots of other lessons available as well as revision grids for mocks and exam season

In an effort to reduce marking I have put together these checkpoints for the B1-4 Trilogy topics. (can also be used for triple Biology.) I use them as starters or plenaries. B1 Cell biology B2 Organisation B3 Infection and response B4 Bioenergetics Students complete TG, an effort grade, a student comment for how they are getting on or any questions and a 'science specific target'. I usually get these printed on coloured paper to make them stand out, in the power point, they are clear to allow you to do this.
