This is lesson is designed to meet specification points for the new AQA Trilogy Biology specification, specifically the 'Cells' SoW. Please find more resources for the NEW Trilogy GCSE Biology, Physics and Chemistry specifications in my shop: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/SWiftScience The lesson begins by identifying the differences between osmosis, diffusion and active transport. Pupils will then watch a video and answer questions about the process of active transport whilst watching. Once finished pupils can self-assess their work using the answers provided. Pupils will then sort statements about the three types of movement - diffusion, osmosis, active transport - into three columns, pupils will then self-assess their work. The next part of the lesson focuses on the importance of active transport to living organisms, pupils will be introduced to two examples - mineral ion uptake in plants and absorption of glucose in humans. Pupils will then need to answer questions on this topic. The plenary is a exam-style question on active transport, pupils can again self-assess their work using the mark scheme provided.

This lesson is designed to meet specification points for the new AQA GCSE Trilogy Biology ‘Cells’ SoW. For more resources designed to meet specification points for the new AQA GCSE Trilogy Biology, Chemistry and Physics specifications please visit my shop: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/SWiftScience This lesson begins by pupils being introduced to the idea of stem cells, what they are and why they are important. Pupils will then watch a video about stem cells, the difference between adult and embryonic stem cells and their importance in medical research and treatments. Pupils will answer questions whilst watching the video and can self-assess their work using the answers provided once it has finished. Pupils will then need to summarise what they have learnt so far by completing a fill-in-the-blank task, this can be copied off the board or summarised in their book. The next activity is on stem cells in plants, pupils will be given some information on the board and will then need to answer questions about this information. The next activity will focus on the social, moral and ethical implications of using stem cells for medical research purposes. Pupils will need to read opinion/fact cards about the use of stem cells and firstly will need to discuss the pros and cons of using stem cells for medical research. The second task is for pupils to sort the information cards into ‘fact’ or ‘opinion’ columns - this can be self-assessed using the answers provided. The final plenary task is an exam-style question about use of stem cells, pupils can then self-assess their work.

This task is designed for the NEW AQA A-Level Biology, particularly the ‘Cells’ unit. For more resources designed to meet specification points for the NEW AQA A-Level 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 ‘Cells’ unit, 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.
