6.5.2 Work done and energy transfer lesson created in accordance to the NEW AQA Specification (9-1). Includes: slide animations, embedded videos, and worksheet with answers as well as a interactive review task. If for any reason the video link does not work, a URL has also been included in the notes. For further enquiries please email paperfriendlyresources@gmail.com

If you have the opportunity this is an excellent practical to do with your KS4 separate sciences classes. It is not required but WS skills can be learnt from this activity. I adapted this worksheet after stubbling across a version on the net, I have tried to make it as student friendly as possible and also shared with you an image of the complete dissection done by some of my talented Y11 students. Credit to: https://science.jburroughs.org/resources/eye/eyedissection.html if you’d like the original version.

Complete lesson Includes: embedded videos, slide timers, slide animations, interactive answers on slides, and a plenary 3.2.1.1 In complex multicellular organisms, eukaryotic cells become specialised for specific functions. Specialised cells are organised into tissues, tissues into organs and organs into systems.

AQA A-Level New specification-The cell cycle-Cells 3.8 (3.2.2) Includes: questions, embedded videos, slide timers, slide animations, interactive answers on slides, and a plenary. Also includes a mini topic test, with markscheme. AQA Specification reference: 3.2.2 ALevel Biology Textbook: Section 2 Cells, Chapter 3.8

Mini topic test on Mitosis and the cell cycle, can be set as an open or closed book asssessment. Mark scheme included.

Unit 2-Practical scientific procedures and techniques Learning aim C: Undertake chromatographic techniques to identify components in mixtures. For many of my students this was the first time they needed to write a scientific report i thus produced a guide for this learning aim. This was a huge success and i had the pleasure of marking some beautifully written reports. The relevant P/M/D criteria for this learning aim have been covered within this guide. I’ve also attached the specification and assignment briefs so you can have it all in one place. Best of all enjoy it all for free :)

Aims In this activity students will use an aseptic (sterile) technique and a small part of a cauliflower ‘flower’ to clone and create an entirely new plant. Learning outcomes After completing this practical, students should be able to: • state why plant clones are genetically identical to each other • explain how using tissue culture creates a clone of a plant • explain why it is easier to clone a plant than an animal • explain and carry out a practical accurately and safely in order to successfully clone a plant.

Always helps to have a copy of this in the back of students exercise books.

I've attached an applied science-revision checklist. It's essentially a copy of the Pearson applied science specification-I've just broken it down and chunked relevant topics. I have handed this to students so they can use it as a revision tool. Hope it helps. I've also made a checklist for the physics and chemistry unit.

For ease of use i have uploaded AQA’s Required practical worksheets for all 10 biology practicals. Please note this included the practicals for separate science students.

This worksheet requires students to complete unlabelled diagrams using the AQA Biology textbook (page 188-189). This resource has been created to support the lesson on dialysis (check it out). *Top tip-print 2 copies to 1 A4 page to save printing*. AQA spec link: 5.3.3 People who suffer from kidney failure may be treated by using kidney dialysis. Students should know the basic principles of the operation of a dialysis machine.

Worksheet that can be used for classwork or assigned as homework. It covers WS 1.2 and WS 1.4 in the AQA specification ‘Students should be able to interpret ray diagrams, showing these two common defects of the eye and demonstrate how spectacle lenses correct them.’

An Internet-research based activity that allows students to explore the Wolly mammoth extinction theories. This resource allows students to apply their knowledge, if time allows it is also a fantastic way for students to present their findings to fellow classmates. Please leave a review on this resource.

Attached is the sample assessment material on UNIT 1 For the NEW (2016) BTEC applied science specification. I have given my students each a copy of the sample paper (w/o mark scheme) for an open book assessment, in preparation for their mocks but you can use it is as a class test. For ease of use i converted the PDF file into a word document which i have also attached. It was very fiddly to find this on the pearson website and i dislike editing pdf documents so i hope it has saved you some hassle. Please leave a review to let me know if it was useful or how you used it in your lesson.

This resource has been uploaded for free to celebrate the two year anniversary of paperfriendlyresources. Thank you for your continuous support and positive feedback! Air pollution lesson created in accordance to the NEW AQA Specification (9-1). Designed for a higher ability class, although content can be adjusted to suit any ability.Please note this lesson requires computing devices as the main activity requires students to undertake research. This lesson Includes powerpoint timers, slide animations, peer-assessment, mark scheme, embedded video’s and mini review. It also provides students the opportunity to work in groups. ***Paper friendly tips: Print the marking sheets as one A4 page-double sided. Alternatively you can email the marking sheets to students to complete on laptops/desktops. NB: If you are unable to play embedded videos please view slide notes for link. * AQA spec link: 4.7.3.2 Relevant chapter: B18 Biodiversity and ecosystems. AQA Biology third edition textbook-Page 290-291 Students are required to know the following; Pollution can occur: • in air, from smoke and gases such as sulfur dioxide, which contributes to acid rain.

AQA Biology third edition textbook-Page 288-289 Students are required to know the following; Pollution can occur: • in water, from sewage, fertiliser, or toxic chemicals • on land, from landfill and from toxic chemicals such as pesticides and herbicides, which may be washed from land into water. Pollution kills plants and animals which can reduce biodiversity.

Every year we have students that have gone above and beyond within our classes however, they aren’t always acknowledged in reward assemblies because of the large pool of students they are competing against. Most of the certificate templates I found online were either over complicated, childish or both. Students in secondary school wish to be treated as young adults hence, I have created a sophisticated certificate, one that students would be proud to take home. Reward the students in your chemistry classes for their achievement and effort using these certificates, download for free and edit away! If you like this certificate but don’t teach chemsitry, edit away! P.S I have attached PDF and Word doc versions, I recommend you print your certificates as PDF.
