A three-sided worksheet that covers gene probes and genetic tests. It is specifically aimed for the AQA A level Biology spec, but will be appropriate for most exam boards. It assesses student understanding of some core principles, whilst running through how geentic tests are carried out for cystic fibrosis, huntington’s and digeorge syndrome (using chromsomal micro-array). Comprehensive and projectable markscheme included

***Get 90% off the cost of your first resource worth up to £10 with code JANUARY90. New buyers only!*** A level Biology double-sided worksheet looking at the genetic code. This sheet has been produced with the AQA spec in mind but would be highly relevant to any A level Biology course. It touches on introns and exons, how to read a triplet table and the nature of the genetic code being Universal, Non-overlapping and Degenerate, whilst recapping some of the basics on nucleotides and amino acids. Also included is a comprehensive markscheme which you could scroll through via a projector to review with your class.

***Get 90% off the cost of your first resource worth up to £10 with code JANUARY90. New buyers only!*** Double sided A level worksheet on ATP and its uses.

New buyers only!*** A PowerPoint presentation which you can use to guide your students through a rat dissection with an accompanying sheet which allows students to identify and colour organs in thoracic and abdominal views

A PowerPoint which explores how DNA Methylation of promotors and Acetylation of histones affects gene expression. It is well illustrated and explores its implications in genetic disorders (prader-willi and angelman) as well as cancer. The worksheet then explores these concepts, which have suggested answers provided via the markscheme.

A level Biology maths skills worksheet. Single sided and answers included. Looks at percentages and percentage change calculations and using graphs. All under the context of lipids

A Simple presentation which includes a starter to recap the structure of the heart, and then promote discussion and to how coronary arteries may become blocked, risk factors and treatments for CHD. The powerpoint has supporting notes. The two sided worksheet includes low to higher demand questions to check understanding of CHD progression, risk factors and treatments. The dominoes are a nice pairs/individual loop activity which could be used as a starter to review heart structure and blood components

RAG Class Voting Quiz to use with Red/Amber/Green Cards Relay Quiz - Print slides 1 – 4 single sided in a separate colour for each team. Slice and put in a pile and staple the stack so it is in numerical order. Teams have to come and collect the 1st question, take it back to their team to answer, then bring it to you (the teacher) to have it checked. If they are correct they can move on to the next question. If they are wrong, you may choose to give them some verbal feedback they can share with their team. Great AfL activity which my students LOVE!

A comprehensive PowerPoint which reviews how Oestrogen triggers gene expression through the oestrogen receptor. This PowerPoint then reviews how the hormone and receptor can be implicated in cancer, and looks at how tamoxifen/endoxifen reduces tumour growth

GCSE Biology - Protein Synthesis mechanism presentation which can be used to walk through protein synthesis with your GCSE classes. Covers, transcription, translation and the triplet code (although doesn’t explicitly refer to them as transcription and translation!) ***Not suitable for Edexcel exam board as there is no mention of tRNA

GCSE Science based 'pictionary' style cards - these 27 cards can be used in conjunction with the FREE notebook file (included, but also available separately). This is a great game for end of term

***Get 90% off the cost of your first resource worth up to £10 with code JANUARY90. New buyers only!*** An alternative task to assembling a human skeleton - engage your students by getting them to assemble a gorilla skeleton using the printout on card and split pins. Use this to teach about skeletal structure (organ systems), to compare homologous features between humans and apes whilst teaching evolution, or as a fun activity for your 'Science club'!

Four worksheets that I have recently written in order to update some old resources that I was using. They are aimed at the Genetic Diversity 3.4 AQA topic. Suggested Answers provided for all The Genetic Code (2 sided) Splicing Mutations (AS) Classification and species

***Get 90% off the cost of your first resource worth up to £10 with code JANUARY90. New buyers only!*** Engaging activity on DNA replication - students work through the sheet using pipe cleaners to explain why the evidence proves replication is semi-conservative and not conservative or dispersive. Focusses on the experiment involving bacteria grown on heavy and light N isotopes. All you will need are 2 pipe cleaners of one colour, and 14 of another colour, per group (cut them into shorter ones to make them go further!). It is a student led activity - the presentation is a markscheme which allows you to work through the correct answers via useful PowerPoint animations

This is a visual sheet with various questions, colouring activities and CLOZE tasks. It gives an overview of the whole of the topic - communicable disease examples, body’s front line defences, white blood cells and immunity, vaccines, anitbiotics and resistance, and drug development.It looks great in A3. I have produced this with my foundation students in mind, who are perhaps lacking motivation with the exam season fast approaching. However, there are questions dotted throughout to stretch the student’s thinking
