I made these information cards to use with year 7, 8 and 9. I have previously used them for modelling cells and linking the adaptations of cells to their functions. The cards have photos, diagrams functions and adaptations. Included cards are: Palisade cell Sperm Cell Egg cell Red blood cell Ciliated cell Root hair cell
Energy and Heat revision activities

This resource is differentiated by task and also by time to be spent on each. Red activities = hardest, Orange = medium demand Green = easy The stars represent the time to be spent on each ( I change this depending on the ability of the group/ student e.g. each star represents 2 minutes) I usually display on the board and students work on A3 or print for lower ability classes.
