I got pupils into groups and got them to model lungs using straws, cocktail sticks and raisins. The fastest group to create the most accurate model! It worked really well! When explaining gas exchange in our bodies I got pupils to volunteer and gave them signs saying 'lungs&', &';heart', &'red blood cell&';, 'oxygen&' etc. and got them to act it out as I explained it! Hope you enjoy teaching it- I did :)!

First lesson on the respiration topic of the AQA syllabus. It worked really well and I did the combustion of icing sugar as a demo at the beginning of the lesson and also got the pupils up to breathe down straws into lime water!

Here are some G&T questions I made up to challenge my more able students! I stuck them on A5 playing cards in difficulty order e.g. 2-5 easy (Aimed more at Year7) 6-9 Medium (Aimed at year 8) and 10-ace hard (Aimed at year 9). They include some 'How Science Works&' questions and also some general extension tasks. Enjoy- my classes love them!

Lesson I used for a mixed ability year 7 class so is full of differentiation. The worksheet is differentiated 3 ways, you just need to cut it into 5 parts. When I talk about 'particle stickers' I just gave the pupils some small circle stickers to use which they enjoyed :) Hope this is useful!

I used this with a mixed ability year 7 class! Sheets included are one slightly easier that I gave to my weaker students. It also includes the picture I got pupils to annotate to consider what causes light to be blocked out. They loved colouring in the grapes and I had a lot of positive feedback! Give it a try :)!!

This was a fab, jam-packed lesson! At the start I got pupils jogging on the spot to music to look at the difference in pulse rate before and after exercise. In the middle there is also an opportunity for pupils to practice the '6 mark questions&'. Take a look and leave some feedback!

Lesson I used with a low/middle ability year 10 group about thermal decomposition of limestone and other metal carbonates. Includes a code breaker activity where students had to decode answers around the room! Worked well, and made the topic slightly more exciting :) Has a differentiated worksheet for writing equations for this topic too.
