This worksheet can be printed as a revision card or as A3 and used as a class activity.
Students have to add as much information they can about the immune system onto the diagram. It is for quick recall and could be extended further.
An A4 sheet to show the difference between these for students.
I got the students to stick this into their practical books so they could use as a check sheet when doing percentage change.
Hope it is helpful to others
The power point is a colourful, easy to follow explanation of the rock cycle. Suitable for KS3 and GCSE (SEN) students.These sheets were made specifically for my KS3 students but have worked really well with SEN and GCSE Foundation students. They are colourful, easy to read and easy to fill in.
All can be used as starters, plenaries, home works or even as a class test.
These quick revision sheets can be used as class activities, revision tools, home works, starters or as a plenary.
The sheets include describing blood vessels, labelling the heart, explaining the cardiac cycle and the pressure/ volume graph.
Hope it is helpful to give students a starting base for revision or test practice.
Printable check list for teachers for the New AQA Biology (8461) combined (Foundation and Higher). Allows you to keep check of units completed. Sharing as lots of work for teachers for this new spec. Hope it’s useful.
This power point contains the key information about the discovery and uses of penicillin, digitalis and aspirin. The worksheets attached can be used alongside the power point and are good for low ability / SEN students.
The power point cards can be printed out and given to more able students to make a sheet about these 3 medicines, or can just be used for revision, starters or plenary activities.
Helpful with the new (as yet still a working progress) New Yr 9 spec for AQA.
Hope you like them and find them useful, if so please leave feedback.
This resource contains 2 popular sheets I use with my KS3 students to teach them about the "Burning triangle". The second sheet can be used as a homework, extension, revision or as a class test.
I also used it with my SEN class and GCSE Foundation students who found they could access the material because it is colourful, easy to read, and some fill in the gaps gives differentiation.
Help sheets for gaseous exchange surfaces, including fish, leaves, insects and human lungs.
Great for starters, plenaries or for revision.
Great for students needing help to consolidate key terms.
A map and information about endangered species. Students have to make a poster showing all the endangered animals on the map. I had to bring up a map of the world whilst doing this activity as many are unaware where most places are.
My SEN group worked really well in groups, discussing, working as a team, and producing a nice resource which can be put up showing students work, and also they get to understand about endangered species.
I then set them a homework to chose one animal and tell me why it is endangered. Keywords can be put on the board to help.
Acid Rain Worksheet to be used in conjunction with the PowerPoint “Human Impact on the Environment - 2022 Edition” available at our TES store Free of Charge.
GCSE Biology fill in the gaps w/sheet for plant hormones. Nice plenary or starter for the class, or you could set it as a homework.
Easy to read and understand key points.
GCSE Biology handout.
This is a hand out sheet explaining the 3 main scientists involved in helping to explain the photosynthesis equation we have today and the time line involved.
It is part of a set of resources produced to aid my "Premier Listed" power point called Plant Structure and photosynthesis which covers all parts of the specification. Please check out my other resources.

This worksheet has been used with both my KS3 students and my BTEC/GCSE SEN/Foundation classes when carrying out the practical for Oil Burners. Easy to fill in sheet.
I hope it can be helpful to others.
This is a 30 slide power point presentation covering every aspect of Gene Technology for A2 Biology (OCR or AQA specifications). This is extensive, contains easy to follow notes and diagrams. Will cover at number of A2 lessons and will help with continuity of learning.
It covers the following Reverse transcriptase, Restriction endonucleases, in vivo and in vitro techniques,
In vivo - vectors, plasmids, transformation and identification using antibiotic resistance markers.
In vitro - PCR, primers, DNA polymerase, locating genes using DNA probes, DNA sequencing , Gel Electrophoresis, Restriction Mapping.
It then features DNA probes used in medicine, advantages and disadvantages of in vivo and in vitro techniques, uses of gene technology.
Gene technology - genetic counselling, gene therapy and genetic fingerprinting. (Cystic Fibrosis)
Finishes with advantages and disadvantages and ethical issues.

This is a power point and 4 accompanying work sheets which cover the GCSE Biology syllabus for Blood and Blood Vessels.
It covers blood components (white blood cells, red blood cells, platelets and plasma). then looks at arteries, veins and capillaries followed by heart structure, stents, coronary heart disease, cholesterol, artificial hearts and blood groups (antigens).
