This lesson is designed for the NEW AQA GCSE Trilogy Chemistry GCSE, particularly the ‘Using our Resources’ scheme of work.

This is a lesson aimed at the new OCR GCSE Gateway Science B1 - ‘Cell-level systems’ SoW. The lesson begins by identifying examples of prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, pupils can begin to think about the structural differences between these two types of cells. Next, pupils are given a worksheet plus an additional card of information on either the structure or function of a bacteria cell. Pupils will need to walk around the room and trade the information on their card with others to fully complete a labelled diagram of a bacteria cell and descriptions of the functions for each structure. Once completed pupils can peer or self-assess their work using the information within the PowerPoint slide. The next activity requires pupils to apply their knowledge of the structure of bacteria (prokaryotic) cells and compare this to the structure of eukaryotic cells, pupils need to construct a list/table in their books to identify the similarities and differences between these two cells. Pupils can then self-assess their work against the list provided in the PowerPoint slide. The next activity is an assessment activity, pupils will need to complete the past-paper question in their books and again self/peer-assess their work using red pens. The final activity involves a list of ‘True/False’ statements, to gauge the progress of the class this could be completed by students holding up red/amber/green cards to identify whether they think the statement is true or false. All resources are included in the PowerPoint presentation, please review to provide me with feedback :). Thank you.

This is a lesson designed to meet specification points for the new OCR GCSE (Gateway Science) Biology B1 - ‘Cell-level systems’ SoW. For more resources please visit my shop: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/SWiftScience This lesson begins by pupils completing a comprehension task, they will need to read details on the history of the microscope and answer questions into their books. Once finished pupils will need to then self-assess their work using the answers provided in the PowerPoint presentation. The next part of the lesson focuses on the structure of a light microscope, and how to use it to view a specimen, including different ways in which stains can be used in light microscopy. Students will watch a video, and will need to answer questions in their books, before self-assessing their work. Pupils are then introduced to the idea of ‘resolution’ - the definition for which they need to know so pupils could write this down in their books. The next part of the lesson will focus more on maths skills related to microscopy, pupils will firstly need to calculate the overall magnification of a microscope using the objective lens and eyepiece lens magnifications. The next skill pupils will learn is to change units of measurement from cm > mm > um > nm. The next calculation pupils will need to know is how to calculate the actual size of a specimen being observed down a microscope. Pupils will be introduced to the calculation and then given a couple of example questions, pupils can attempt to have a go at these themselves. The following slide goes through step-by-step how you would calculate the answers to these questions. The plenary is a ‘Silent 5’ task where pupils will need to answer questions based upon what they have learnt during the lesson.

This a revision lesson aimed at AQA B1 Core Science topics on nervous and hormonal control. Pupils begin the lesson looking at the differences between nervous and hormonal control and assessing their current knowledge on the topics by looking at a set of learning objectives and marking them green, amber or red. Students then go on to complete a revision worksheet on the topic areas and will then re-assess their ability to meet the learning objectives, hopefully showing progress! The page numbers to help the students complete the work are on the sheet, these page numbers are specific to the green Science A text books for the AQA course. Pupils will finish the lesson by completing a past-paper question and peer-assessing their work.

If you look at the ‘Notes’ section underneath each of these slides, you will find additional content which you can add in as you teach! This lesson begins with a ‘Carbohydrates’ true or false activity, students can answer these questions on their mini whiteboards. This will give you an understanding of knowledge attained at GCSE level on this topic. Students are then introduced to the differences between monosaccharides and discaccharides, and provided with examples of sugars in each of these categories. Students are also introduced to the differences between hydrolysis and condensation reactions, they can have a go at drawing examples of these reactions using the mini whiteboards. After this section of the lesson, students will sort statements into two columns - either describing a condensation or a hydrolysis reaction. Students are also introduced to the three polysaccharides - starch, glycogen and cellulose - but we will cover these carbohydrates in more details in another lesson. Students are shown the test for reducing and non-reducing sugars, they need to be able describe the steps involved with both these food tests, as well as state the positive result for each test. The last part of the lesson focuses on assessment, students will firstly answer a set of questions about what they have learned this lesson. This task can then be self-assessed using the mark scheme provided. Lastly, students will complete an exam question on this topic, which they can then swap with their partner to peer-assess. The plenary task requires students to summarise what they have learned in 3 facts, 3 key words and with 1 question posed to their peers. All resources are included.

If you look at the ‘Notes’ section underneath each of these slides, you will find additional content which you can add in as you teach! This lesson begins with a brief introduction to the three main polysaccharides that students need to know about at A-level Biology level - starch, glycogen and cellulose. Students will then complete a ‘Prior Knowledge’ quiz so you can gain an understanding of their depth of knowledge around this topic area, this task can be self-assessed using the mark scheme once complete. I would also probably collect in the quizzes, so I can ascertain the level different students are working at. Students will now divide into 6 groups, each group will study either starch, glycogen or cellulose. Students will be given an information poster on either of these polysaccharides, and will need to answer a set of questions (provided on the PowerPoint slide). Once complete, students will then share their answers with a group which studied a different polysaccharide, and will need to complete a summary table to assess the similarities and differences between all three. This task can be self-assessed using the mark scheme provided. Lastly, students will need to learn the test for starch - the steps as well as the colours shown for a negative/positive result. They can take notes on this test in their books. The plenary task requires students to write a twitter message to demonstrate what they have learned today, including #keywords.

If you look at the ‘Notes’ section underneath each of these slides, you will find additional content which you can add in as you teach! This lesson begins with an introduction to enzymes and a starter discussion to review the structure of amino acids and the quaternary structure of proteins. Students will then watch a short video and work independently to answer review questions from the video. The following slide offers brief answers to these questions so that students may self-assess. The lesson then progresses through a series of lecture style slides explaining enzyme involvement in chemical reactions, the structure of enzymes, and the two models of enzyme action. Following these slides, students have an opportunity to work in pairs to teach each other the two enzyme action models. The information for each student in their pairs is provided as the last slide in the lesson. Students should take notes on both models in their books and are encouraged to sketch a ‘cartoon strip’ style diagram as an extra challenge. Students are then asked to practise two exam style questions, worth 7 marks and 2 marks respectively. The slide following these questions offers a marking scheme so students may self-assess. After a short discussion on these two questions, students are tasked with a third exam question on enzyme action. This exam style question is attached as an additional resource for students to fill in the blank spaces as a worksheet which requires students to define important terms related to enzyme action. As a plenary task to complete the lesson and check understanding, students are asked to complete one of four sentences in their books. All resources are included.

This lesson begins with a starter to encourage discussion about the differences between the induced fit and lock and key models of enzyme action. Students are also asked to explain how temperature and pH balance affect enzyme action. The following slide briefly reviews enzyme-controlled reactions then asks students to use their mini whiteboards to write down four factors that might affect successful collision. Students can self-assess with the answers on the slide. Students are then taught to measure enzyme-catalysed reactions; in the notes I encourage you to ask students for examples and what the measurable changes are. Students can then use the slide to work through the ‘fill in the blank style’ paragraph using a graph as a guide to understand enzyme-catalysed reaction. On the board where everyone can see you should write - substrate - product (H202 -> h2 + 02). The following slide includes answers so students may self-assess or check their answers with a partner. The slides then work through a few more graphs to explain the effects of temperature and pH on enzyme action. The slides are lecture style, but you can see in my mores a few suggestions for discussion questions and further lecture material. Following these slides students are encouraged to graph on their own or perhaps as a large group. Students are then given the opportunity to answer two graph style questions in their books and then self-assess. Next the class will watch a video about measuring the rate of reaction at fixed points of time. After the video, students should answer four questions in their books and discuss the answers as a class. The next few slides build upon these questions and students are asked to practise calculating reaction rates on their own before self-assessing. The plenary requires students to solve seven anagrams in their books, then write an original sentence with each word. Each task or graph from the full lesson can be found on slides 22-27.

This lesson on the plasma membrane begins with a quick discussion about the function of the cell surface membrane and the phospholipid bilayer. It also asks student to apply their knowledge to skin cells and solar radiation. This discussion continues by asking students about the cell surface membrane and directs them to a worksheet task to identify cell membrane molecules. Students should watch a short video and make notes on this same worksheet as they listen. To follow up on this introduction there are a few lecture slides to explain phospholipids, proteins, cholesterol, glycolipids and glycoproteins. Extra notes on each can be found below the slides. Students will then view an animation of the fluid mosaic model as whole and label a diagram accordingly. They can self-asses to the following slide. Another video is attached to help explain why the model is called a “fluid mosaic” model which students should also summarise on their worksheet. To synthesise their learning the students will work on a group task to build a 3D model using the “build a membrane” worksheet. When they have finished, they can practise once more through a true/false activity! The next task is to answer the questions on the cell membrane worksheet, they may self-assess to the mark scheme on the following slide. Not all cell membranes have the same composition, students should think>pair>share to discuss why this might be. Suggested answers are on the following slide. The plenary task is a fun anagram challenge to reveal key terms from the lesson, as an extra challenge they can define each term as well! All resources are included.

To begin this lesson on the methods of studying cells, students will review previous lessons by discussing the nature of water and the reasons water is important to living organisms. Students should also discuss the properties of ATP and the importance of those properties. Students will then learn some of the basics of different microscopes. The slides then explain magnification and resolving power. To prepare students to calculate total magnification, the students will work through a review slide on units of measurement then practise some unit conversions on their mini whiteboards! The next few slides define total magnification and explain how to make sense of the actual size of a specimen. The previous exercise on unit conversion will be helpful here! A final example is shown before students are given a task with two magnification questions to complete in their books. They can self-access to the following slide. Students can then complete an included worksheet on magnification calculation, answers are available on the next slide for self or partner-assessment. The attached Magnification Questions sheet also includes worked answers. To explain cell fractionation students will watch a quick video then answer a few questions. The stages of cell fractionation are then set out in detail on the following slides, extra thoughts can be found in the notes below the slides. Students can then complete a grid activity to demonstrate each stage in their books. The plenary task is to create quiz questions to test their peers on the methods of studying cells.

This lesson begins with an introduction to proteins, the importance of such molecules in the human body as well as the general structural formula of an amino acid. Students are then shown the structural formula of two amino acids - glycine and alanine - and are asked to used their mini whiteboards to show how a condensation reaction could occur between the two molecules to form a peptide bond. There work can then be checked against the answer provided on the PowerPoint. Over the course of the next few slides, you can run through the main principles of the formation of a protein from the primary -> secondary -> tertiary -> quaternary structure. As students listen to the main principles, they can write these down onto their ‘Protein Summary Sheet’ - provided. Students will then be given a worksheet which shows an image/description of a protein as one of the four levels of protein formation, students have to identify which level it is at (primary, secondary, tertiary, quaternary). Once complete, students can self-assess their work using the answers provided on the PowerPoint. Students will now be introduced to the Biuret test for proteins, which they will need to be able to recite as well as give details of a positve/negative result.

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 by pupils being introduced to the term ‘photosynthesis’ and then being asked to consider the raw materials that plants need in order for photosynthesis to occur. Pupils are then given three minutes to write down everything they have learnt about photosynthesis so far, with an extension task to write the word equation for the reaction. In the next part of the lesson pupils are introduced to the word equations and are challenged to write a balanced symbol equation for this reaction. Mid-lesson plenary involves a set of exam-questions (total marks = 9 marks) which they can complete in silence and then peer or self-assess using the mark scheme provided. Pupils are then introduced to the concept of endothermic and exothermic reactions, they are given the definition for an endothermic reaction and are then asked to ‘think, pair, share’ with a partner about what an exothermic reaction might be and whether photosynthesis is endothermic or exothermic. After 5 minutes, pupils are given the answers and they can mark their work. The final activity is for pupils to think about the structure of the leaf, and how it is adapted for its function of photosynthesis. Students will watch a video about these various adaptations, and will need to answer a set of questions whilst watching. This task can then be self-assessed using the answers provided in the PowerPoint presentation. Pupils can choose their plenary activity - either writing quiz questions on the topic of the lesson or summarising what they learnt by writing a twitter message along with #keywords. All resources are included in the PowerPoint presentation, thank you for purchasing :)
