The fist question involves a short sequencing/cut and stick activity to create an overview diagram of the cycle with the following questions testing students understanding of the processes it shows. Later questions tackle leguminous plants and eutrophication as well as how carnivorous plants use alternate strategies to harness nitrogen. Also included is a full markscheme that can be printed for traditional teacher assessment or projected for peer to peer or self assessment, introducing each answer with a click of the mouse.

The resource consists of a double-sided worksheet comprising 6 examples of oxygen dissociation curves that may differ from a ‘standard’ curve for ‘normal’ haemoglobin for various reasons. Students need to read information on the situation in each case and predict, with detailed reasoning, the shape of the curve most likely for that case. This serves as a useful consolidation activity and also encourages a re-examination of students’ understanding of dissociation curves so is equally a useful revision resource. The accompanying mark scheme can be used for self/peer assessment and also to promote discussion in the classroom.

This resource consists of a two page worksheet. The first is a grid and the second is the tiles that should be cut out and stuck on the former to complete it. Cut and stick activities can be unpopular - especially at A-level - but my students have all agreed this is a great summary activity and a fantastic resource for later revision. The finished result is a single sided piece that works through the entire cycle of a single myosin head power stroke. Also included is a printable markscheme and a newly added PowerPoint markscheme where the answers reveal themselves on each click - to allow self assessment.

This resource summarises the changes that occur during the process of ecological succession at a sand dune ecosystem. An excellent resource that serves to reinforce taught content and as a visual summary of the process, this download includes a page of tiles and a sheet to fix them on and an animated markscheme (PowerPoint) which can be projected to help students with the task and/or used to aid discussion. The finished activity links seral stage to environmental conditions and the sand dune topography so can further be used to fuel discussion regards changes in hostility and biodiversity.
