Checklist for science method writing

Students can colour and create an interactive resource that they can stick in exercise books. The flaps lift up to show the effects of either physical, chemical or biological weathering. Students can then describe the process under the flap. Also including is a worksheet to assess knowledge and a teacher guide which contains photos of the finished products.

This can be attached to every TDA to show the amount of marks given for each TDA, it also speeds up the marking and assessing process. This can also highlight areas which your students are finding more difficult to write up so you can spend more time more time going over these weaker areas.

This is set up as a time saver so you can track what topics have been covered in your department for Y9,10 and 11. It has been formatted so all you need to do is type in the group and set, put the name of their teacher in and then once a topic has been completed type in a 9 for Y9, 10 for Y10 and 11 for Y11. This will change colour and keep you track and monitor who has been taught which unit.

Students cut out the sheets and take in sticking the 'window' pane down so that the symbol, hazard and controlling risks strips can slide up and down in their exercise books. Activity can be used to self assess knowledge, peer assess each other and then match up symbols,to hazards to controlling risks on the accompanying worksheet table. For extension work - encourage learners to extend their learning by looking up other symbols such as compressed and radiation.

20 ideas that range from investigations to one off lessons to making Christmas as scientific as possible. Ideas include how to brighten up your room/lab with science themed decorations, investigate factors that effect poor old Father Christmas from doing his job. Most ideas are linked to Chemistry and Physics but would be appropriate for any teacher of any specialism to use throughout the keystages.
