I used this as a competition whilst working at a school in Peru/ Can be used as an introduction to writing a scientific method or just as a fun little competition at the end of term etc. Students have to do exactly what the instructions say using a piece of paper.

PleasThese are PowerPoints and sheets I use in lessons and will need some adaption to your classes. Most lessons start with a "Do now" that students do as they enter. I should mention that there are running jokes about my dislike of dogs (sorry!

Genes, DNA bases, mitosis, miosis genetic engineering IGCSE. Everything they need to know with some revision of earlier work on Punnett squares etc too.

Two comprehensive lessons with practical sheets and presentations. Hooke's law for GCSE/IGCSE with calculation of spring constant and as an extension finding the spring constant for two springs in series and parallel.

Everything they need to know about seeds, germination and cotyledons for Cambridge IGCSE Biology. Making a "mini-book" exercise at the end.

Hazard symbols for year 7 - students then have to design their own.

Straightforward question sheet for use in class or as homework to re-cap work covered when studying the periodic table. Useful revision exercise.

I use this technique a lot. Students have to convert the 8 sentences into diagrams - hence "Draw the sentence". This is a great assessment exercise and is linked to my TES article at http://www.tes.co.uk/article.aspx?storycode=6112077 This is an easier one as both have equal but opposite charge - slightly harder examples have also been uploaded.

7th Grade Magnets Investigation

End of topic summary sheet to stick in their books. Useful for examination revision too. Could be used for them to write their own worksheets etc. Contains a 'party' analogy which I have found useful in explaining rates and collision theory.

EVERYTHING you need to teach this topic. Would be useful for A level Physics too. Includes revision material and TEST.

EVERYTHING you need to teach this topic. Presentations, worksheets, practicals and revision material. Great value for money for the amount of work you will save. Written by a very experienced IB Physics teacher. Presentations feature humour too!

Presentation, examples, worksheet and practical activities for the Equations of Motion (SUVAT). Written for IB but fine for A level and GCSE. Written with humour by a very experienced Physics teacher.

A good homework is ask them to do a simple practical at home for their parents. Obviously you have to be careful here – I use the Amazing Mug trick to demonstrate refraction for year 8s. Put a coin in the bottom far side of a mug and move your head so the coin is just out of view. Pouring water in causes the coin to appear as if by magic. Students have to demonstrate this to parents/siblings who sign a slip in their books to prove that it was done! This type of homework can also use internet simulations as the second worksheet shows.

Complete with music - play as a class - don't forget their lifelines! About 20 - 25 mins of classroom fun if played like the real game.

Step by step, easy to understand and humorous presentation explaining Newton's laws for year 9 and GCSE lower groups. Non-Physics specialist and don't quite understand them yourself? - You will now!

Presentation covers the whole of Orghanic chemistry for GCSE/IGCSE. Fractional distillation, Alkanes, alkenes, cracking, alcohols, addition reactions, polymers etc. Clear slides with humour too!
