For BTEC level 3 Applied Science unit 1: Prinicples and Applications 1 - Biology This 11-page illustrated notebook on muscular tissue is available in both printable and editable PDF to allow for choice and comes with a completed version. I have also included a self-test version where students can fill in a page then click the link at the bottom of the page to check the answer. Research has proven that students learn best when notes are written in their own words. This is partly because students have to think more clearly about the topic when they have to put it into words which they would not do if they copy from a PowerPoint. It is also because they are more likely to understand it later if it is in their own words. This notebook encourages students to write their own notes whilst guiding them on what to write the notes about. It is designed to be used alongside other learning activities about the topic. It can also be used as a revision aid where students can try to complete the pages from memory – the self-test version is ideal for this purpose. Research has also highlighted the effectiveness of dual coding to aid student understanding and recall. This notebook makes maximum use of dual coding with the use of high-quality illustrations. Completed notebook included in the resource. The muscular tissue notebook covers the requirements of B3 that relates to skeletal muscle tissue and includes: • Locations of skeletal and other types of muscle tissue within the body • Gross and fine structure of skeletal muscle tissue • An overview of sliding filament theory • Sliding filament theory in step by step detail • The differences between fast and slow twitch muscle • Suitability of fast or slow twitch muscle for specific activites • A test your knowledge section at the end

Three specialist subject quizzes for level 3 BTEC health and social care unit 3: Anatomy and Physiology Keep learning fresh in the minds of students with these three quizzes each covering five topics from the anatomy and physiology specification. Students learn best when it is fun and adding an element of competition to learning will help you make learning fun. Each quiz contains 6 starter questions and 6 bonus questions for each of the five topics covered. You can vary how the game is played to allow for differentiation and discussion. You could divide the class into five teams and have them choose a specialist subject. Alternatively, you could divide the class into two teams and allow them to chose any topic when it is their turn to answer a question. The advantage of this method is it will be easy to see which of the topics students are least confident with. Either way, give a point for a correct answer. Students who answer correctly are given an opportunity to answer a bonus question to gain more points for their team. The resource consists of three quizzes as follows: • Specialist subject game 1 includes: cells, tissues, organs, energy and genetics and is also available for free to try. • Specialist subject game 2 includes: cardiovascular system, respiratory system, skeletal system, muscular system and digestive system. • Specialist subject game 3 includes: nervous system, endocrine system, lymphatic and immune systems, renal system and reproductive system. The quizzes are all on separate PowerPoints which include both questions and answers. They could all be used in a marathon revision session or, you could use them periodically during the course as you cover the topics included. Each game will last up to half an hour. If you are not sure whether these games will mean your needs, you can try the first quiz for free. If you would like other games to test the students’ knowledge on particular topics, why not try the anatomy and physiology revision game bundle which includes different games for each of the different topics for this unit.

Disorders revision game for BTEC health and social care unit 3: anatomy and physiology The anatomy and physiology unit includes nearly 40 disorders for the students to learn. The exam will cover a number of these, but it is anybody’s guess which ones will turn up. This revision game offers more than one way to help students commit all these disorder to memory in a fun way. The disorder cards can be played as a board game which includes elements of competition and luck to make learning fun or they can be used individually by students to learn the disorders. The game includes 39 disorder cards with information about the disorder on one side and just the name on the other. The board game includes the traditional start and finish squares and different requirements for landing on particular squares. Some squares are gray and can just be landed on without any need to answer a question. Other squares allow the student to roll the die again so as to advance further along the board. The other squares require the student to state specific facts about the disorder on the next card in the pile. If they do not get the answer correct, they must stay on the square they are on and not advance. The squares may ask for the category of the disorder which means they must identify the body system it is a disorder of, or whether it is a genetic or congenital disorder or a dysfunction of homeostasis. Other squares require an overview of what the disorder is and other squares ask for symptoms of the disorder. Some squares require all three aspects of the disorder to be identified by the student. Students can use the disorder cards for individual revision by laying down 9 of the cards face down in three rows of three. They must start at the top right and state information about the disorder. If correct they can keep the card face up, if incorrect they must turn it over again. Students cannot revisit this disorder until they have gone through all of the cards. How long will it take to learn all 9 of the cards? To make it easier, students can learn different aspects of the disorders at a time such as category, overview or symptoms.

Reproductive system revision games for BTEC health and social care unit 3: anatomy and physiology Two great games to test the understanding of the structure and function of the reproductive system. The reproductive system bingo game focuses on the complicated structures of both male and female reproductive systems. This game is available to try for free. The maze game focuses more on the processes involved in the reproductive system. Reproductive system bingo includes 20 of these key terms with 30 unique bingo cards to ensure you have enough for your class. By asking questions rather than just reading out the key term, students must first answer the question correctly before they can determine whether that key term is on their bingo card. This game can also be played in pairs and small groups to encourage discussion about the question enabling deeper learning. Reproductive system maze game is designed to be played in two teams. Both teams enter from different sides of the board and must make it through to the star in the centre, but locked gates bar their way. In order to unlock the gates, students must answer questions correctly about the reproductive system. If they answer wrongly the gate is locked again by clicking on the red rectangle. If they answer correctly, the gate can be unlocked by clicking on the green rectangle. In total, there are 43 gates to unlock although it is unlikely that all will be needed. Points can be given for each correct answer or it could be first to the start in the middle that is the winner. Clicking on a gate will open a question on the reproductive system. Click on the question to reveal the answer and then click on the return button to go back to the maze. Try reproductive system bingo for free.
