A lesson covering competition and adaptation. After delivering this lesson learners should be able to: Identify what animals compete for, Identify different adaptations of different animals / plants, Describe how these adaptations are advantageous, Explain the link between the animal population and which animal outcompetes the other. Explain the necessity of adaptations and how they mould different species.

A settler activity where students need to read and cross out incorrect statements in order to find the hidden letter. Includes 3 biology topics: Cells, Genetics Health and disease. Food chains, Food tests, Specialised cells.

A simple and fun competitive snap game using scientific terminology matched with pictures. PPT can be presented to the entire class for a whole class session, or can be printed and cut for team games - there will always be a snap between 2 cards but the students need to find and identify the correct scientific key word. The students who calls out the key word first wins the round. Key words included are: Units, DNA, Bunsen burner, Tripod, Beaker, Gauze, Heat mat, Measuring cylinder, Safety glasses, Repeatability, Dissolving, Melt, Solidify, Evaporate, forceps, solid, Liquid, gas, reaction, reproductive system, microscope, pH, Periodic table, pipette, carbohydrate, fat, protein, test tube, lab coat, kinetic energy, sound energy, gravitational potential energy, atom, thermometer, cell, digestive, system, Electrical energy, circulatory system, electron, respiratory system, nervous system, litmus paper, skeleton, photosynthesis, light energy. Excellent as a settling activity or starter / interim activity.

A comprehension lesson that teaches students about the carbon cycle, how carbon is found and moved throughout the ecosystem. Links here to the impact of increased carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and the forest fires experienced in Australia. Support sheets are also included to guide students should it be needed. Tasks are differentiated to suit the needs of each learner. Progress checks are present after each success criteria Past paper questions from the exam boards: WJEC, Edexcel international and UK including marking schemes. By the end of the lesson students should be able to: Learning objective: Evaluate the stages of the carbon cycle and make links between different processes and the movement of Carbon. Success criteria: I can describe 4 ways in which living organisms relate to Carbon. I can create a flow diagram to show the flow of Carbon. I can evaluate how sections of the Carbon cycle will be impacted by external factors. Powerpoint contains 20 slides and a lesson plan is also attached.
