Plant Anatomy Life Cycle and Photosynthesis KS3
Plant anatomy, photosynthesis and life cycle from pollination through fertilisation and seed dispersal to germination, use these 36 taboo cards to get students thinking and talking about what they have been taught to consolidate learning at the end of the module or for test prep.
How to Use
Work in pairs.
Place cards in a pile face down.
Student takes a card and gives scientific clues to their partner to help them guess the word in the guess box.
The clue giver cannot use the words in the taboo box in the clues.
Full instructions are given on the PowerPoint itself.

The virtual investigations take the student through prediction, planning drawing a graph and conclusion. They can be used as instructions for the student to follow to perform their own experiment or the scientifically accurate animations themselves can be used to obtain results.

Halloween Team Quest Quiz Free Taster KS3
This is a free 16 question taster of a Halloween activity which promotes the concepts of working as a team and individually contributing to the success of a team. It contains examples of all the different types of engaging questions which are found in the full quiz.
The full version is a 51 question, animated, interactive team quiz with built – in scoreboard for up to seven teams. All questions are pictorial and multiple choice. A wide-range of topical and historical general knowledge is included. As well as asking a question, a lot of slides also provide some interesting snippets about the topic so pupils are expanding their general knowledge as well as enjoying the activity. Topics include:
geography
history
sport
nature
science
music
astrology
current affairs
film
art
flags of the world
famous people
famous landmarks
Each team will attempt their general knowledge team round of three questions. The answer to each question must be decided by the whole team. If a wrong answer is given, the next question goes to the first hand up and, if correct, that person’s team get to try the rest of the round.
Each team will also have to solve the clues to identify a well - known phrase or saying.
There are four lightning rounds in which team members consult to try to identify a slowly revealed person or landmark.
Additionally there are four unscramble and identify rounds which consists of a picture which has been cut up and rearranged. This is an individual not a team round.
Finally the fifteen - question individual bonus round. This round allows flexibility in terms of the time the quiz takes as not all the questions have to be attempted. The quiz therefore can last between 40 and 50 minutes.
There are also a number of slides which give interesting facts and myths about Halloween and a few scary surprises to make sure no one looses focus!
Full instructions are given on the PowerPoint itself.
Current Electricity - Batteries and Current Explained - Distance Learning or Homeschool for KS3
This is an action-packed distance learning or homeschool lesson on the relationship between the number of batteries and current.
This resource has been designed so that the animated PowerPoint replaces the teacher by providing structure, sequence, knowledge and answers. The worksheets, cut-outs, foldable and progress check provide a familiar medium for students to develop and test their knowledge, continue to develop their literacy skills and use their creativity to organise their learning and assess their progress.
The simulated practical takes the student through planning, designing a table and drawing conclusions from a given set of typical results.
Objective
• To know that an electric current is a flow of electrons which pick up energy from the battery.
• To know that as batteries are added to a circuit current increases and the lamp gets brighter.
• To be able to make a prediction and design an experiment to investigate the relationship between the number of batteries and current.
• To be able to draw a bar graph.
• To be able to calculate the output of n number of batteries from known numbers of batteries, voltages and currents.
Resources
An animated PowerPoint which guides the student through the lesson by:
explaining how to use distance learning effectively;
explaining how to use this resource;
explaining current, voltage and resistance and the relationship between them;
providing the answers to all the worksheets so that the students can mark and correct their work.
Four worksheets, and two cut-out activities, the answers to which are in the PowerPoint.
A foldable and cut-out activity so that students can record and organise their learning.
A checklist for students to use to assess their progress.
For those students without internet or a computer or a computer at home a condensed printable copy of the PowerPoint is provided for distribution by school.
Ways to Use this Resource
Upload PowerPoint and worksheets to school intranet. Students print their own worksheets.
Upload PowerPoint and worksheets to school intranet and provide a hardcopy of worksheets for students. Those families who do not wish to collect worksheets or who are in isolation can print the worksheets at home.
Students without photocopying facilities are instructed to write their answers in full sentences and to writs a sentence to describe any circuit diagrams drawn.

Bundle
Current Electricity - Batteries and Current Explained - Classroom, Distance and Blended Learning for KS3
The two packs in this resource allow the same lesson to be taught to students whether they are in a classroom or distance learning at home. It facilitates blended learning and provides equality of opportunity for students who are unable to attend school.
The classroom resource consists of an animated 22 slide PowerPoint and 14 varied and exciting printables including a foldable, cut-and-stick and progress check. The one-page flowchart lesson plan shows where choices can be made between the printables so that the teacher can select the activities to suit the exact needs of their class.
The distance learning pack consists of a 42 slide animated PowerPoint which, not only teaches the science but also how to gain maximum benefit from distance learning. The PowerPoint has been designed to replace the teacher by providing structure, sequence, knowledge and answers. Additional worksheets, cut-outs, foldable and progress check provide a familiar medium for students to develop and test their knowledge, continue to develop their literacy skills and use their creativity to organise their learning and assess their progress. These can be printed off by the student or provided by school. There is also a short digital test/homework which can be returned to the teacher.
The practical, whether real time in the classroom of simulated for distance learning, takes the student through planning, designing a table and drawing conclusions from a given set of typical results.
Objective
To know that an electric current is a flow of electrons which pick up energy from the battery.
To know that as batteries are added to a circuit current increases and the lamp gets brighter.
To be able to make a prediction and design an experiment to investigate the relationship between the number of batteries and current.
To be able to draw a bar graph.
To be able to calculate the output of n number of batteries from known numbers of batteries, voltages and currents.
