This assembly grabs the students attention with the first slide asking them to vote whether or not school should start at 10am instead of 8.50. The assembly goes on to look at the arguments for and against and the current research that is going on in the uk at the moment with 100 test school. I went on to tell them that unfortunately we haven't been selected for the trial but its findings could impact us. I then went on to say that until then they should take note of the sleep scientists top tips for a good night sleep which includes the science of blue light from mobile phone screens and its effect on the sleep hormone melatonin. This powerpoint lasts around 15minutes. Enjoy.

This resource includes 4 powerpoint based lessons with worksheets integrated into the powerpoint so you can print them off easily. I have created it based on the new national curriculum framework which appears to be bringing a lot of content down from the KS4 curriculum. This is followed by a fifth assessment based lesson where students complete a level assessed task. Each powerpoint contains footnotes to explain what should be done if it is not obvious. Each powerpoint is planned to take between 50 and 60 minutes and includes plenty of student lead learning and many opportunities for assessing student learning throughout the lessons. Thank you for looking.

Entire KS3 scheme of work with level assessed task and end of unit test with markscheme and levels. Created around the new KS3 national curriculum framework it encompasses powerpoint based lessons and associated worksheets, homework and assessments Each lesson includes a requisition list for lab techs and where it is not obvious foot notes have been created. Each lesson has been planned to last between 50-60 minutes and includes differentiated outcomes and activities I taught this to my year 7s and it worked really well but also allowed me to make a few tweaks that you can now benefit from. All in all it took me about 25hours to create during my summer holidays so save yourself some time and grab yourself a bargain!
