This resource guides a-level biologists through how genes are located through genetic screening and how this can create vocations such as genetic counselling. Stretch, challenge and lateral thinking questions are embedded throughout. This is a resource been made to be picked up and used by any teacher.

This resource is created to implement the safety rules and regulations that should be applied in any science lab. It is formatted as a literacy mat so that pupils can have these in their work place to constantly and consistently remind them, reinforcing the correct way to do things.

This resource guides a-level biologists through the types of selection pressures that the environment may cause and the influence this has on allele frequency within a population. Penicillinase and Mortality rate are example explored here to illustrate the selection pressures. Stretch, challenge and lateral thinking questions are embedded throughout.

This resource guides a-level biologists through the idea of genetic diversity and the causes of this. We look at allele combinations and frequency with the specific example of the peppered moth through the industrial revolution. Stretch, challenge and lateral thinking questions are embedded throughout. This is a resource been made to be picked up and used by any teacher. AQA Biology

This resources introduces a-level biologists to the concept of biological molecules, touching upon how these molecules are synthesised and broken down via condensation and hydrolysis. This is a resource been made to be picked up and used by any teacher. AQA Biology

This resource guides a-level biologists through the hormones involved in the regulation of blood glucose and how they maintain homeostatic control. Stretch, challenge and lateral thinking questions are embedded throughout. This is a resource been made to be picked up and used by any teacher. AQA Biology

Welcome to the KS3 science stretch and challenge activity booklet. I have created this to challenge students knowledge and to develop a deeper, more critical understanding of the world around them. The activities inside will get students looking at content (based around Exploring Science but applicable to most curriculum) from a range of different perspectives, force them to think outside of the box as well as getting them to explore new, more difficult KS3 and GCSE content. Contents include: • Scenarios • Word Scramble • Retrieval Roulette • Scientific Literature • Odd One Out • Key Word Scrabble • Thunks • Six Degrees of Separation • What’s the question? • Science & Engineering Challenges • Be Inquisitive • Guess Who? • Dingbats • Code Breaking • Spot the Mistake • What Happens Next? • A-Z Key Words • Code Breaking • Its Not Rocket Science I use this booklet to stretch and challenge the top 50 KS3 students in a project called ‘Science Academy’ which has been hugely successful in preparing students for KS4 as well as improving their academic achievement in KS3 Science. Enjoy.
