For the OCR A level biology specification. I have included the handout (88 pages)I give students for you to adapt if you wish, this has lots of summary questions, exam questions and lined paper in the back to allow for flexibility. It is suitable to print as an A4 booklet. The lessons are in one power point, divided into sections. A lot of consideration has gone into the clear diagrams, animations, linking to other parts of the specification and morph transitions to give a slick presentation Lessons include: Excretion - including lots of recap of previous topics The liver Ornithine cycle and deamination Detoxification The kidney The nephron osmoregulation Kidney dissection and histology Kidney failure Medical diagnosis revision - revision grid, specifically recorded podcast and revision activity sheet I study mind questions sets with QR codes to question papers and mark schemes I hope you find this useful and I really value your feedback - more module 5 on the way

Module 4 Revision grids. 9 x A4 pages in total 4.1.1 x4 4.2.1 x2 4.2.2 x3 Top features include: QR code - takes students to multiple choice quiz from the OCR QR code for useful videos QR code to questions on Seneca maths elements PAG elements checks key terminology *Checks ability to draw key diagrams Links to other parts of the spec where appropriate The activity is designed to check that students have an understanding of the topic and encourages independent working. I advise my students to use notes or a textbook before asking the teacher if they do not know the answer. Each side takes students roughly an hour to complete. I have used as homeworks, support sessions, revision lessons private study tasks and printed on card and cut to use as revision cards All other topics available. Please note, answers not yet available but are in the pipeline!!
