I teach a number of low ability classes. I want my pupils to do as well as they can. So here are a number of resources that I have developed to help them do that. From writing frames to entire lessons. I am currently making themed topics to rope in pupils, e.g. Disney themes.

Hydrothermal Vents

Hydrothermal Vents

(0)
A lesson about extremophiles. It starts with a video of hydrothermal vents with some music to play as they enter. There is then a challenge question as a starter. Pupils then listen to a podcast and watch a small video about how deep the ocean is and what hydrothermal vents are. There are questions with both to ensure that pupils take from the media what is needed. Pupils then go over the different types of extremophiles and decide which one's would be around hydrothermal vents. Pupils then have to write a script for James Cameron's documentary for a narrator. I used the beginning video as the scene they were to write a script for. They have to decide hydrothermal vents and extremophiles to the audience. With quick workers you can then ask them to present it over the video. This is a nice end.

Scooby Doo Science - Diet

(0)
This is aimed at a low ability KS3 class, with a Scooby Doo theme. Pupils begin by sorting some of the thing Scooby and Shaggy eat into healthy and unhealthy foods. They then watch a video on balanced diets. They then match the food group with what it provides the body with. This is an interactive slide, so can be printed as a worksheet or done on the board together. Pupils then sort foods into the food group they think it belongs in. Lastly pupils are given a worksheet and told that Scooby and Shaggy are going to order the meal on the sheet. They are to answer the questions about the meal.
