This task is designed for the NEW AQA Trilogy Biology GCSE, particularly the 'Organisation’ SoW. For more resources designed to meet specification points for the NEW AQA Trilogy specifications for Biology, Chemistry and Physics please see my shop: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/SWiftScience This activity is a revision activity for the ‘Organisation’ SoW, students can either have a card each and the task can be completed as a card loop activity with the whole class. Alternatively, students could work in pairs and be given a set of the shuffled cards, they will then need to arrange the cards into the correct sequence so that the sentences make sense (like dominoes tiles). When students carry out this version of the activity I often have a prize for the students who complete the task in the fastest time! The solution for this activity is included so you can check their answers.

This task is designed for the NEW AQA A-Level Biology. Included in this resource is a ‘revision placemat’ for Inheritance, Variation and Evolution. Concepts covered include: inherited and environmental characteristics, reproduction, meiosis, and the structure of DNA. Pupils will also discuss selective breeding, genetic engineering, mutation and genetic tables. The final topics covered are fossilisation, natural selection and extinction. There are 15 revision questions in total. Pupils may use their books if necessary but should test their knowledge by attempting to answer all questions from memory first. The solution for this activity is also included so you can check their answers, or they may self-assess.

This is a lesson designed to meet specification points for the new OCR GCSE (Gateway) Biology 'Cell-level lsystems’ scheme of work. Pupils will learn about the products made during photosynthesis and how these are used plants. In particular the uses of protein, cellulose, starch and fats & oils. At a higher level pupils will consider the advantages and disadvantages of energy storage molecules such as fats, oils & starch. Pupils will have an opportunity to use information points around the room to complete a levelled worksheet on this topic which will be peer assessed at the end of the lesson. Extension opportunities are available if finished. Once this first activity has been self or peer assessed pupils will then have the opportunity to conduct an experiment to investigate the presence of starch in normal and variegated leaves. Students will also learn about investigations that can be carried out to prove that chlorophyll, carbon dioxide and light are needed for photosynthesis to take place. The last activity pupils will complete are two exam-style questions on the topic of the lesson, this can then be self-assessed. All resources are included in the PowerPoint presentation, thank you for purchasing :)

This is a lesson designed to meet specification points for the new OCR GCSE (Gateway) Biology 'Cell-level lsystems’ scheme of work. The lesson begins with a recap from the last lesson, children are shown images of pieces of equipment which could be used to measure the rate of photosynthesis. Students can discuss, and write down in their books, a simple method using the equipment pictured. They can then self-assess their answers using the answer provided on the PowerPoint. Children will now be given a worksheet which describes an experiment carried out to test the effect of carbon dioxide concentrations on the rate of photosynthesis. Students will need to plot a graph to represent the results, and then answer questions about this data. Lastly, students will be introduced to the idea of the inverse square law - when you double the distance from a light source, the light intensity falls by a factor of four. Students will then need to use this to answer some questions in their books. All resources are included in the PowerPoint presentation, thank you for purchasing :)

This is a resource which contains all of the learning outcomes for the new AQA Biology 'Cells' SoW. Pupils should mark whether they feel they very confident (green), a little confident (amber) or not confident at all (red) for their ability to achieve each learning outcome. This can be used before an end-of-topic test for pupils to reflect on areas of revision which are most important. It can also be used again after to see whether students have progressed in their understanding of the topic.
