I have been teaching Biology for 20 years and I have struggled to find concise and engaging resources for teaching Biology, which is why I have set about creating my own.
I hope that my resources are enjoyed by your pupils and of course support their learning of such an interesting and great subject.

A comprehensive and visually appealing A level worksheet pack summarising the biochemistry topic of proteins. There are two worksheets included in the pack, designed for pupils to work through independently.
Answers are provided for the teacher.
Worksheet 1 covers:
Structure and properties of amino acids
Formation of dipeptides
Worksheet 2 covers:
The four levels of protein structure
Focus on haemoglobin as an example of a protein
The worksheets are provided in both an A4 and A3 format.
A3 size is recommended for printing for students.
Always a challenging topic at GCSE, this collection of visual worksheets and posters should help your students get to grips with the Carbon Cycle. There is a worksheet included, available in both colour and black and white for students to complete. Additionally a separate A4 poster for students to complete, also in colour or black and white. There is an answer sheet for the teacher included in the pack, great for non-specialists teaching GCSE Biology.
Perfect for use when both teaching the topic area and also when revising. The worksheet will help students learn the parts of the Carbon Cycle and familiarise themselves with key words.
As a suggestion the resource could be laminated and completed by students using OHP pens and then cleaned off for future use with other pupils. Could even be used as a short progress test with students too.
There are two A3 wall posters, for classroom display, of the completed carbon cycle included too in this pack of resources. The poster comes in both colour and black and white. The black and white version could be coloured in by students if desired.
