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 ‘Biological Molecules’ 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.
