Breathing Build a model of the Lungs.

(0)
Instructions to make your own model of the lungs and student worksheet.

AQA Science Trilogy Assessment Bundle Biology, Chemistry, Physics

(1)
Requires Microsoft PowerPoint. 150 Multiple choice questions from the new specification. If Macros are enabled when prompted at the start of the presentation, the powerpoint will mark itself and give feedback (topics of weakness and more specific question feedback). Could be used at the start and end of the year to measure progress. Students can print results on slide 52 and use the feedback for independent learning or homework. I hope this saves you lots of marking. I have included hard copies of the questions and answers in case the ICT lets you down or you want to use it for a cover lesson.

Simple Combustion practical - Easy to resource

(0)
A PowerPoint with supporting instructions, starter and extension activities. Best if you use tealight candles. Encourages students to consider variables and to make accurate measurements. Students draw a graph to show their results. If students are difficult to motivate then ask them to estimate how long a candle would last in a specific volume (i.e. 300ml beaker) which they will have to produce a graph to extrapolate or interpolate to find this out. You could test a 300ml beaker at the end to test this. The extension activity promotes higher level scientific thought. It is unknown if the carbon dioxide smothers the candle or if the oxygen runs out first. Most students will say the taller candle as this will last longer!
Microorganisms - Virus, Bacteria, Fungi

Microorganisms - Virus, Bacteria, Fungi

(0)
Students are introduced to the different microorganisms and their contrasting structure. Students compare the scale of the microorganisms to familiar objects. Students will then research the microorganisms further and present their findings scientifically (using one of 6 randomly selected scientific formats).

Employability Skills - Career planning - Interview Skills - Speed dating

(0)
Two activities that promote good interview technique, positive responses and body language. Activity 1: sitting in pairs, students ask the example interview questions to their partner. The partner responds, they flip the card over (print both sides) and reveal the true meaning of the interview question as well as the perfect response. Students compare their response to the suggested response. Activity 2: With students in pairs, sit one on the outside (interviewer) and one on the inside of the desk (interviewee). The interviewer asks the questions provided and takes notes. After 4-5 minutes call 'time' and the students on the inside move to the next interviewer. When students return to the first interviewer they swap and become the interviewer. Worksheet: Interview candidates give their worksheet to the interviewer and receive a score for their body language during the interview. These activities will last 2+ lessons depending on class size.
