An assembly on the background, discoveries and legacy of four British scientists- one each from the 17th to the 20th Century. Includes lots of images. It discusses that much of the science we still hold to today is built upon the discoveries that each made. The assembly closes by pointing out some of the discoveries that have been made since the year 2000. It also points out that we don’t know yet who will be the most significant scientists of the 21st century- it could be one of the audience. This is a good way of raising British values and the impact of Britain on the culture of the world. It is suitable to advertise British science week but can be used at any time.

This is a complete lesson covering sections 5.1.2 d of the OCR Biology specification- synapses. It covers the structure and function of a cholinergic synapse and how the movement of an action potential between neurones is triggered by an influx of calcium ions in the presynaptic membrane. The lesson then goes on to discuss convergent and divergent synapses as well as spatial and temporal summation. The lesson includes a starter, full notes, various student led activities and a differentiated summary at the end All answers are included I actively try to reduce photocopying, so all of the lesson resources are within the PowerPoint rather than as extra sheets

This is a complete lesson covering sections 5.1.3 n and o of the OCR A level Chemistry specification- Neutralisation. The lesson opens by considering the use of a pH meter to track a neutralisation reaction. This also includes data for plotting a pH curve.
