NEW AQA Biology Trilogy Biodiversity and Human Activity

(0)
A lesson for the new AQA Biology specification about the effects of pollution and human activity on biodiversity. Videos can be included about biodiversity - probably the trailer for Planet Earth 2. This lesson compresses the following topics into one lesson with the use of information sheets and a table: 4.7.3.2 Waste Management 4.7.3.3 Land Use 4.7.3.4 Deforestation Students found this type of activity useful, but needs consolidating at the end with either an exam question of other AfL techniques.

These student friendly handbooks are for the NEW AQA (9-1) Biology GCSE . These follow a similar layout and pattern I have used for the free revision and paid revision mats from my shop. Samples of these booklets can be found using the following link: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/sample-new-aqa-science-required-practical-handbook-9-1-11945258 These include a how to guide for each practical, practical information and questions regarding the methods and techniques used in each practical. There is also graph paper included in this booklet. References for the ‘working scientifically’, ‘mathematical skills’ and ‘apparatus and techniques’ requirements for each practical. Paper 1 booklet: Microscopy Microbiology (Biology) Osmosis Food Tests Enzymes Photosynthesis Paper 2 booklet: Reaction Time Plant Responses (Biology) Field Investigation (Quadrats) Field Investigation (Transects) Decay (Biology) I have not included exam questions for copyright reasons, so exam questions would make this booklet even better (use exampro for this). I have also created a bundle that contains all the required practicals for each subject and can be found using the link below. https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/new-gcse-aqa-science-required-practical-booklets-9-1-11945151
