A lesson based around the higher teir on the Le Blanc Process and chlorine production. More based around evaluating the process and envrionmental impact. Full lesson plans and resources are there. Was intended for a double lesson but could be split into two

an hour lesson on types of radiation, properties and introduction to uses - more about applying what they have learnt to situations. you will need to find a quiz off here for the types but there are lots to choose from. The summary sheet was a table off the board with column headings: particle type, stucture, penetration power, ionisation power.

A full lesson with plan on the big bang, what it is and the evidence behind it. All the resources are there - some have been taken from here and adapted to create a full hours lesson. I used the collins set of textbook for the market place style activity. The questions for quick on the draw were 1-8 from the poster question sheet

For threats to the earth topic. Complete lesson that was done for an interview that was 30 min long. This could be adapted though to fill a full 50 -60 min as there are opportunities for it to be adapted to enable the students to do more tries and complete a graph on paper rather than a class graph only. Some of the power point and the all of the plenary pyramid were off of this site so sorry for reposting but without them the lesson is not complete!

add your objectives/outcomes to the text box or spercific questions for the students and they answer. you can collect it in and use it to inform your planning for next lesson. great to asses progress in the lesson and students to self asses their progress

a lesson based on how microbes are transfered. The lesson is based around Semmelweiss and what he discovered. you will need the glow bug powder and a uv light. make sure you sprinkle it on worksheets first to show how its transmitted. it shows what surfaces it gets on to and how one person not washing their hands has a big effect. you can also use the gel to demonstrate how well hand washing needs to be done to remove any traces of microbes.

a question based on the white blood cells and how it proctects against illness. the image file is how i presented it to the students and looked at the banding of the marks. we went through what was required and i explained that 6 points were not enough and that it was more about the structure of the answer. the model answer sheet shows the students what is required to gain the full 6 and an A*. hope you find it useful.

A concept cartoon for animal adaptation. All statments are paritally right but the students can use them to discuss the ideas at the start of the lesson or at the end of the lesson to asses progess. I have used it at both the start and the end of a lesson so the students can see how much progress they have made.

Picture with 3 statements about plant growth and light. Students are to see what they think about them in groups. the answers are partly right but not completely right.... opens it up to discussion.

a lesson that i recieved excellent feedback on for an observation. all resources are there but you will need post it notes and practical equipment: different sized marbles/balls, meter rulers, stop watches. some of the slides need printing too - they are hidden in the document. hope you find it useful

This is a 30 min lesson that could be easily extened to a full lesson with class feedback and other activities linking energy transfer in a real situation. I did 3 demos of fuels so pupils could see that not all fuels are traditionally though of as fuels. the demos were blowing custard powder/icing sugar into a bunsen, whoosh bottle (big water cooler bottle with a small amount of ethanol and ignite it - it looks like an upside down rocket) and methane bubbles. It really engaged them and they really enjoyed putting ideas about the true or false cards.

An independent learning lesson on the Doppler effect, what it is and how it relates to sound. the power point contains the basic lesson and links to YouTube for the big bang theory and a little explanation clip. I printed out the information cards and placed them around the room for students to collect the information from. The students then were responsible for their learning and collecting the information from around the room.

slides that can be used to add into your own files with generic activities. different sections such as starters, bell activities, class activities, paired activities, differentiation, extension, afl and quick mini plenaries. There is also power point slides with countdown timers for 1-5min, 10, 15, 20, 25 min timers. Over 100 slides. **All are hyperlinked together so you can navigate between different activities. 90 simple activities included in the slides. Most require no planning and a few require a little editing to put your own topic or questions in. ** hyperlinks don't require control + click, you need to be in slideshow mode and just click on the word to move to the appropriate page - in response to the first review**

Modeling the digestive system. Students evlauate the model and suggest improvments to the model to meet the app focus. they then asses their evaluation against the app criteria attached. To model the digestive system you need a: mortar and pestle, tights, blender, food, water and a washing up bowl. The motar and pestle are the mouth and teeth, the blender the stomach, the tights the intestines and the washing up bowl is the body.

A tarsia puzzle for AQA unit three with the main key points. Useful as a revision tool.

A marking grid for self or peer assesment for students. It should be used to help them understand what they need to know about ways the medical proffesion can see into the body without invasive surgery. Marks on the grid are guidlines to how many points are needed for each section

a lesson based around hearing ranges relevent to the 'mosquito' device and how it works. You need a signal generator and a speaker or download a free app on the iphone/pod/pad. if you have clip bank there are some good news clips about it you can use. It is based for a btec lesson but the outcomes on the plan and exit ticket can be changed to GCSE grades.

A song that helps students develop their ideas of three different vairables and the corrisponding lesson plan and worksheet to accompany the song. Rocket balloons are inflated balloons stuck to straws and the straw is threaded through a long piece of string. The balloon can then be deflated to send it moving on the string. A number of different variables can be investigated with the eaisest being the amount the balloon is inflated. This is taliored to a low ability set but can easily be adapted by the use of questioning and how much intial support students are given.

A work sheet which students have 3 blood sample pictures and they have to identify the components in the normal slide, explain differences in two other slides. Similar to an exam question from 2008

Four puzzles I have made for science such as fuels, electromagnetic radiation, metal reactions and photosynthesis. There is also a link to the software that you need to down load to acess. It is free!
