A workbook i put together for my OCR AS class to use for homework whilst studying membrane structure. Contains a selection of questions and tasks.

PowerPoint for OCR 21st C B1 lesson 1. PowerPoint includes lesson plan and card sort activity. Covers spec points: B1.1. 1. recall that instructions to control how an organism develops and functions are found in the nucleus of its cells and are called genes 5. understand that some characteristics are determined by genes (eg dimples), some are determined by environmental factors (eg scars), and some are determined by a combination of genes and the environment (eg weight) 6. understand that many characteristics are determined by several genes working together (eg eye colour).

A collection of questions for AS students covering, phospholipids, bilayer formation, membrane components, plasma membrane, role of cholesterol, cell signalling. Ideal for homework, revision, exam practice or self directed study. The student workbook contains the questions. The teacher workbook contains the answers!

This is a double sided worksheet I created for my top set to use during a cover lesson. Task 1: Students write the key term that matches the defintion e.g. genotype, phenotype. Task 2: Students use information on alleles for eye colour to determne phenotpyes and genotypes. Task 3: Students use the genetic cross diagram on the back to calculate % of each phenotpye and genotype.

This is the first lesson of 12 for OCR 21C unit B4 Homeostasis. The lesson covers an introduction to homeostasis, effectors, receptors etc. In the notes section below the slides i have written my lesson notes. Have also attached the worksheet. Hope this proves of use.

Lesson powerpoint and exam questions on the link reaction and krebs cycle. The first part of the powerpoint is a review of glycolysis. The resources required by students for the activities are at the end of the ppt. The Krebs cycle slides are more detailed than required for A Level. I use this as a stimulus for the students to annotate the simplified krebs cycle on the last slide. Hope its useful!

This is a powerpoint i wrote for my A2 class. It goes over the structure and role of ATP. An introduction to co-enzymes / electron acceptors. Stages of glycolysis. Each stage contains a main slide outlining the points required for A2 and a supporting slide showing some of the bits the A Level skips; these are not required but were included as discussion points for the more able students. Also included OCR past paper questions on glycolysis + answers. Hope its useful! 1

This is a double sided planning sheet i use with my 6th form biology classes to help them plan their examination answers and hopefully improve exam technique. There are three different types of plant ot be used with different types of questions. I laminate these and then students write on with OHP pens to form a plan for their answers. Then just wipe off and plan for the next answer.

A set of sort cards covering magnification, resolution, units / calculations of magnification, types of microscope. It is set up to print double sided. Select double sided printing and hopefully all you need to do is cut up to make revision flash cards. Alternatively, print single sided to make sort cards.

This is a workbook i have put together for my students. It coveres the first part of OCR F212; magnification, cytoskeleton, eukarotic + prokarote cell structure. It contains a specification overview and a range of questions / activities that can be used in class / for revision / homework. A number of the activities have been adapted from other worksheets, however, i do not know the original sources. If you are the original source and would like to be acknowledged drop me a mail.

AS - OCR unit 1: Worksheet covering calculation of magnification and calculation of actual cell organelle size from magnified scale diagrams. Includes answers showing calculation stages.

Worksheet covering development if the first vaccine for small pox by jenner.

A powerpoint I wrote to review the immune response with my class. Just click through to tell the story. Rustic but hopefully effective!

AS worksheet designed for OCR. Includes a cloze type paragrpah introducing prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, short answer questions and a table for comparing plant, animal and prokaryotic cells. This can be completed as a reasearch task or as an outline for notes to accompany a lecture

Students use sheet to track their progress through the unit against 'I can' statements (higher tier only in bold). End of each lesson students can tick off statements covered and record their understanding . Students can use the record to target revision on areas of least understanding, track revision and show progress by indicating where understanding has improved. Students can also set targets against the statements and indicate areas where they are in need of support.

Worksheet containing a number fo tasks. Notes for each task in the notes section of the powerpoint. Side 1: Students match key termsm to defintions and then apply ideas about dominant and recessive alleles to determine the possilbe genotypes of two brothers. Side 2: Students design a monster by flipping a coin to calculate genotype, then use the genotype to wokr out phenotpye. Finally students complete a genetic cross to find out what happens if 2 monsters breed.

Lesson covering the different components of blood and their roles. The lesson is designed to be able to be taught by a non specialist. Some of the student resources are at the end of the powerpoint which is designed to lead students through the lesson. Thanks to those who have provided resources which i have based activities on.

Pupils answer questions on the worksheet to determine whether they are a visual, auditory or kinaesthtic learner. Once they have identified their learning style there are some suggested revision acitivities. (VAK quiz updated from - brainbox).

A hand out listing eukaryotic organelles, description of each organelle, function of each organelle and diagram. Can be cut up to make sort cards or some of the information deleted to make a fill in work sheet.

Information circus for students to learn about the ways in which infectious diseases can be spread. Information sheets should be placed around the class and students work their way round and fill in a grid. Slide 1 : Blank information grid Slide 2 : Partially completed information grid (lower ability) Slide 3+ : information sheets.
