This booklet covers the Ecology topic at KS4, but maybe suitable for some KS3. It contains 15 pages where on each page is a keyword and definition, an image, example and some simple questions and a simple extension question. It also contains a Power Point which circles key points to show the students where to look in their booklets and help them understand the ideas and processes. Also included are two interactive activities, one on population changes in an ecosystem and one on land use and effects on food production. These activities are simple, but challenge the student to give reasons for their choices. This booklet also has project activities on each page for students to work on home at. All the information is there in the booklet so that at the end they have a complete booklet to take home and hopefully revise from. To see if this resource is for you, i have produced a free booklet on infection and response (with a focus on the Corona Virus) here: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/infection-and-response-to-the-corona-virus-covid-19-booklet-12270746 Other booklets are available in my shop (see link below) Please check out my shop for more free and paid resources: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/stephenkemp193 Thank you.

This KS4 resource contains worksheet questions (and answers) for all the Physics Required Practicals with each individual exam style 9-1 graded questions. It employs a lot of Maths, AQA working scientifically and AQA style exam questions with model answers. It is normally used at the end of the practical as a test/check of the students understanding, but can also be used as a revision/homework activity. It can also be used as a cover lesson (with answers). Students can also peer/self assess with the answer sheets and also indicate which part they found most difficult on the top right of the paper so that the teacher can flick through and see what needs covering again. It contains: Specific Heat Capacity, Thermal insulation, Resistance, I-V characteristics, Density. Light, Force and Extension, Acceleration, Waves in a solid and Waves in a liquid and Radiation and Absorption.
