Knowledge organisers have become increasingly popular with both students and teachers alike. Research shows that students find them a much more effective tool to condense their topic notes, in order to learn the content for assessments. Even better is that the notes are laid out on one page, rather than over several pages in a textbook or revision guide. The knowledge organiser has two versions, a completed version/answer sheet and a worksheet version, which allows pupils to be more active in their learning and complete diagram labelling/sentences/tables etc. The knowledge organiser covers all of the gas exchange topic (topic 11) on the CIE IGCSE course and features the following subtopics: Lung structure and function Gas exchange and the adaptations of the alveoli The process of ventilation The effect of exercise on breathing Make sure you print out on A3 paper Thanks for looking.

This Biology GCSE complete lesson resource pack covers the topic of Lung Structure (the respiratory system). This pack includes a PowerPoint on lung structure (the respiratory system), with an associated worksheet (supported version included) to complete for students’ notes and homework task set on the lesson which can easily be assessed and involves no teacher marking. The PowerPoint has slides for both the supported version and the non-supported version (you can hide the slides not needed depending on the ability of your students). This lesson should take approximately 25 minutes. There is also a follow up PowerPoint and recap test sheet (A5, two copies per page and can be easily guillotined) for easy assessment of pupils on this topic. Marking can easily be done via peer marking, saving you time. The recap test should take approximately 10-15 minutes with peer marking and collection of marks by the teacher and makes a great starter activity for the consecutive lesson. Key features of the PowerPoint and worksheets: Visually engaging for students Clearly laid out for students Encourages pupils to work independently, with clear instructions given Comprehensive corresponding answer sheets for the teacher Helpful for lesson preparation for non-specialist science teachers Familiarisation of students with key words, their correct spelling and definitions

This Biology GCSE worksheet resource pack covers the topic of Gas Exchange (breathing) in Humans. This pack includes worksheets on the following: Structure of the lungs (respiratory system) - a differentiated supported version is included Gas exchange in the alveoli - a differentiated supported version is included Mechanism of ventilation (how we breathe) - a differentiated support version is included The huff and puff apparatus Summary crossword on the topic (with a few extension questions) Key features of the worksheets: • Visually engaging for students • Clearly laid out for students • Encourages pupils to work independently, with clear instructions given • Comprehensive corresponding answer sheets for the teacher • Helpful for lesson preparation for non-specialist science teachers How to use: • For completion in class as the topic is taught • As a homework task to complete after the lesson • Or a homework task to learn once completed in class • As a summative or formative assessment of the topic • Revision during exam prep

Visually appealing worksheets for GCSE biology students on the structure of the lungs. Perfect for use when teaching the topic of gas exchange and also for revision purposes. The worksheets could be set ss a homework or even be used as a progress test on the topic. The worksheets should take approximately 10-15 minutes to complete and pupils will be able to work independently through the activities. There is a differentiated lung structure worksheet for students who may benefit from extra support. There is also an answer sheet for the teacher, which is great for non-specialists teaching biology in schools.

A poster pack covering the external and internal structure of the heart. Ideal for A level Biology students. The posters are great for display around the classroom or to give to the students for revision. All posters have been provided in a choice of black and white or colour. The black and white copies could be coloured in by students to aid memory of the heart structure. Both posters have been provided in an A3 and A4 format to allow for printing in either size.

The first of three resource packs covering the Transport in Animals topic. This resource pack contains a comprehensive 20 slide presentation with four worksheets to be completed by students as the presentation is worked through. The presentation and worksheets cover the following subtopics: 1.) The need for a circulatory system 2.) Different types of circulatory system (including advantages and disadvantages of the different types) 3.) Structure and function of blood vessels with corresponding worksheet (1) 4.) Structure of blood vessels related to their function with corresponding worksheet (2) 5.) Exchange at capillaries with corresponding worksheet (3) - there is a support version provided too with the words given for students to complete the cloze activity if needed 6.) Formation of tissue fluid with corresponding worksheet (4) also includes mathematical calculations for the students on pressure 7.) Comparison of blood plasma, tissue fluid and lymph Answers are given in the presentation to worksheets 1 and 2 and answers sheets are provided for worksheets 3 and 4. The notes given with the presentation (seen under the slide when not in presentation mode) explain which worksheet should be used with which slide/s. This resource pack should take approximately 2 hours to work through. Although designed for OCR A students, the content is extremely similar for all A Level Biology specifications. Resource packs 2 and 3 to follow shortly - these will cover the heart structure, cardiac cycle, coordination of the cardiac cycle and transport of carbon dioxide and oxygen.

This resource pack contains four diagrams for biology students to work independently through and label. The diagrams could be used in assessment too rather than just as a class activity. The diagrams are aimed at GCSE students but could be used with able KS3 students or as a recap as part of an introduction to A level topics. The pack includes:- 1.) Structure of the Heart 2.) Structure of the Lungs 3.) The Structure of Digestive System 4.) The Structure of the Eye (Two versions, one for AQA one for CIE) Each diagram has a copy to label and a labelled copy to display.

A perfect revision lesson for GCSE Biology students, covering the topic of circulation. All worksheets are designed to be visually engaging and can be worked through independently by students. Each worksheet should take approximately 10-15 minutes to complete. Included are four worksheets covering the topics: 1.) Heart structure and function (+ a differentiated version to give more support) 2.) Blood vessels: structure and function 3.) Composition of blood 4.) Crossword on blood vessels and blood Answer sheets are included for the teacher.

A visually appealing set of two worksheets/placemats for GCSE students on firstly, respiration in animals, covering both aerobic and anaerobic respiration and secondly, fermentation in yeast. Perfect for use when both teaching the topic area and also for revision. Each worksheet should take approximately 10-15 minutes to complete. The worksheets will help students learn the equations for respiration, it’s role in living things and also familiarise themselves with key words related to the topic. As a suggestion the resource could be laminated and completed by students using OHP pens and then cleaned off for future use with other pupils. These sheets could even be used as a short progress test with students too. An answer sheet is included for both worksheets for teachers.
