Nitrogen Cycle Lesson and Exam Questions

This lesson and activity takes students through the N cycle.
I laminate and cut up the 2 slides with information about the key processes so that students can try to construct the N cycle themselves. This is a challenging activity, where they really have to read and process the information. I also laminate an A3 version of the N cycle images (see second ppt), so they can draw on the laminate with whiteboard pens. This means if they make a mistake, they can just rub it out.
I then display the diagram on the board, getting students to add the labels and correcting each other's. Then I talk through it with them and they make notes or annotate a paper copy.
There are then questions I use for a whiteboard activity checking knowledge of the bacteria and a longer answer application question.
Then I give the students exam questions from the booklet.
I finish with a Kahoot Quiz (multiple choice online quiz) for a plenary. These are really simple to make.
Happy Teaching
