Tutor quiz boards that are presented in a PowerPoint format for easy projection or printing. Ideal as a quick 10 minute activity to engage students and get them thinking and discussing.

This is a card sort activity that can be used to learn the EU member states, their flags, and their capital cities. - The ‘teacher copy’ shows a grid with all items already matched. - The ‘student version - jumbled’ is a random layout, print this out and give to students. They can then cut out the items and match them, or stick them into their workbooks. - The ‘quick cut’ is designed so that you can produce 7 packs of cards quickly and easily using a guillotine. Each page has four cards 7 times over. 2022 Update: addition of current and pre-brexit variations.

A differentiated resource for producing a labelled diagram of a flowering plant. There are two main versions of this activity, but both of them require the information cards. These can be printed out and placed around the room. The first version is an all in one A4 sheet that has the diagram and labels that can be cut out and stuck on. This is better suited to lower ability students, they can find out where the parts are by looking at the information around the room. The second version requires the diagram with no labels. Students have to collect the information from around the room and write it on their diagram. I run this as a memory game, giving students two rules: they can only write on their diagram at their desk, and they cannot move the information sheets.

An 80+ slide PowerPoint presentation about Galvanic cells. Features quick questions as you go along, full printable notes, and a summary worksheet. Areas covered include analysis of galvanic cells to determine the location of the anode and cathode, plus electrode polarity, electron flow direction. Information is given about salt bridges. Furthermore, explanations about conventional cell representations and calculating overall cell voltage are given. This is the ideal resource to cover galvanic cells. Prerequisite knowledge will include redox, see my other resource that covers this information here.

This is a lesson based around the concept of adaptations. Areas covered: - general and specific adaptations - surface area to volume ratios - camel case study - polar bear case study - cactus case study - summary questions The main tasks include an information hunt, there are a total of 24 cards with information about adaptations for camels/polar bears. These can be placed around the room and students must get up and annotate their diagrams. This is a great active learning task, and I often add rules such as you cannot move the information, and you can only write at your desk (forcing students to memorise small chunks of information). There is also a 10 mark exam style question that can be used as a plenary or homework. I have made the slides as informative as possible with lots of pictures (image credits within the PowerPoint notes section). For the worksheets I have created separate files for 'paper savers' these try to condense as much on to one A4 sheet (6 diagrams), especially important if you have printing restrictions.

This is a fully differentiated activity for the labelling of the respiratory system. There are several different ways this resource can be used depending on the group ability and year, see the information file for examples. For lower ability groups there is a simple cut and stick activity, where students create a resource that they can test themselves with (seen in the cover image). Alternatively there are information sheets that you can place around the room, which students can use to annotate their diagram. I normally run this activity with a set of rules: they can only write at their desk and they cannot remove the information. This means they have to memorise small pieces of information in a short space of time. This makes for an excellent active learning task.

This is a card sort to help students learn words for numbers (30 words in total). This resource covers 1-20 and 30,40,50,60,70,80,90,100,1000,1000000. This would be a useful task with younger groups or low ability groups. There are three separate files, depending on how you want to present the task. - The 'teacher copy' shows a grid with all items already matched. - The 'student version' is a random layout, print this out and give to students. They can then cut out the items and match them, or stick them into their workbooks. - The 'quick cut' is designed so that you can produce 10 packs of cards quickly and easily using a guillotine. Each page has the same card 10 times over. This allows you to remove words that may not be suitable or needed. Alternatively you can print the same page twice double-sided to produce flash cards.

Here are levelled questions for all topics in the OCR Gateway C6 module. They have been taken from the student book and presented in an easy to use manner, with an included answer document. These are ideal for a home work or plenary. Each file has been set out to maximise the number of question sheets on an A4 piece of paper. Some have fonts large enough to be printed two to a page, should you have limits on printing. If you notice any typos please leave a comment telling me which file and I'll correct and update it.
