This was a fab, jam-packed lesson! At the start I got pupils jogging on the spot to music to look at the difference in pulse rate before and after exercise. In the middle there is also an opportunity for pupils to practice the '6 mark questions&'. Take a look and leave some feedback!

The Ozone Layer

The Ozone Layer

(2)
Lesson on what the Ozone layer is, why it's important and what's happening to it. Includes a card sort and worksheets, both of which are found on the slides at the bottom of the ppt. Uploaded as I was realising it's difficult to find a simple lesson on this. I have made this for delivery to a year 9 class so have included some of what happens on a molecular level but not in much depth. Hope it's useful :)

Horse Meat Discussion Lesson

Horse Meat Discussion Lesson

(1)
Horse meat is the hot topic at the moment, so I used this for half of one of my lessons to discuss how Science is linked with this scandal! Students got a character card and had to take on that role and their opinion as to whether all meat should be tested or not. Worked BRILLIANTLY, had some excellent high level discussion! I used it with year 8 but I think it's suitable for all age groups with adaptions!
