This is a whole scheme of work of 15 lessons. They all include powerpoint presentations and worksheets for guidance for each of the practical activities. Money saved from selling this is going to go back to buying practical equipment for outdoor investigations. Will keep people updated :) <br /> <br /> L01: Plant Classification (opportunity for outdoor activity)<br /> I recommend investing in the field studies council's 'playing fields plant identification key' for L1 but the activity can be done without this too).<br /> L02: Making a dichotomous key (opportunity for outdoor activity) <br /> Worksheet of leaves is adapted from naturedetectives leaf identification sheet and is a free resource from them. Uploaded here for convenience. https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/leaf-identification-6123843 )<br /> L03: Sampling techniques: theory lesson on quadrats and the process<br /> L04: Sampling using quadrats (opportunity for outdoor activity)<br /> L05: Capture Recapture Snail investigation (introduces the idea and the theory)<br /> L05.5: Capture recapture lesson follow up (collecting snails and introducing formula and calculations for lower ability)<br /> L05.5: Capture recapture lesson follow up (collecting snails and introducing formula and calculations for higher ability)<br /> L06: Parts of a plant and plant dissection<br /> L07: Pollination and pollen tube growth investigation<br /> L08: Asexual reproduction: practical activity propagating plants<br /> L09: Seed Dispersal (opportunity for outdoor activity)<br /> L10: Seed germination: theory and practical investigation<br /> L11: Plant adaptations. Investigation of holly leaves<br /> L12: Plant adaptations: Transpiration (theory heavy)<br /> L13: Life cycle of a plant<br /> L15: Revision placement and answer sheet

These worksheets have translations of key words and definitions from English into Arabic. The translations were done by a professional translator. The worksheets also have 'RAG' column where students can rate their learning in terms of language acquisition. <br /> <br /> I have uploaded the 'English' versions of the worksheet so you can see what the worksheets say. This resource is useful for anyone who teaches a significant number of arabic speaking students science.<br /> <br /> If this resources is useful please let me know as I have many more I can upload.

This lesson introduces the parts of a flower with two alternative guidance sheets looking at the parts of a flower.

These key word sheets have translations of the key word and their meaning into portuguese. They were translated by a professional translator. The word sheets also have a 'RAG' column where students can record their progress in terms of language acquisition. They will be useful for anyone who has a significant number of native portuguese speakers who have English as an Additional Language.<br /> <br /> I have uploaded the 'English' worksheets so you can see the translations<br /> <br /> These are just the start- if there is demand I will upload lots more :) Feedback is gratefully received!

These two lessons look at the concept of Capture recapture. There is a practical investigation too.<br /> <br /> L1: Introduces the idea of Capture Recapture. There are two potential starters (guidance in footnotes for starter 2). The lesson then looks at sampling the population of snails in the school grounds and considers the assumptions that need to be made when using this sampling technique.<br /> <br /> L2: Students use the formula to estimate the total population of organisms using the capture recapture method. Plenary exam question.<br /> <br /> L2 Alternative: The concept is taught using logic and ideas of proportionality. This lesson might be suited to a higher ability class. Plenary exam question.

This lesson covers the following:<br /> - Pollination and Fertilisation of a flower<br /> - Plenary Questions and answers<br /> - Adaptations of flowers (plant pollinated and wind pollinated)<br /> - Investigation Worksheet Pollen Tube Growth<br /> - Boggle Plenary
