Each activity offered is differentiated and each lesson includes progress checks.
Past paper questions are also included to ensure adequate challenge is set to students.
Content was made for iGCSE students for edexcel 9-1 combined science.
A fast paced escape room containing 12 different challenges! - set at 5 minute intervals will easily fill your entire lesson with the students working to crack the code.
Each challenge is set at 3 different levels - these can be switched as needed for any challenge i.e. if you’ve covered the periodic table recently you might want your class to attempt the level 2 or 3 version of the challenge.
The challenges cover topics such as:
The Periodic Table,
Acids and Alkalis,
Circuits,
Motion graphs (Distance-time and Velocity-time),
Food tests,
Animal and plant cells,
Food chains / webs,
Radioactivity Half-life,
Reflection - pathway of light through many mirrors.
Separating techniques - filtration, crystallisation and distillation.
Moments / Turning forces
DNA triplet code reading
Slides can be printed to give out to students or projected on the board - not necessary to print.
An answer sheet for each student can also be printed.
The final slide contains the correct answers in the correct order.
