Content is for the NEW AQA GCSE Biology specification.
35 slides of fun and engaging activities within this high quality PowerPoint presentation which contains all the resources (in one file!) for two complete lessons. To achieve the following learning objectives:
1) Why it is important to control your internal environment - set of assorted homeostasis cards where pupils take turns to discuss with their partner how their body conditions might change with respect to the images on the cards
2) The key elements of control systems - starter task to match the sense to the sense organ; complete the table: sense, sense organ, stimuli; worksheet (print slide A4 for students to complete (could be used as a potential homework dependent on timing) on homeostasis; plenary - choose the correct meaning for each of the terms.
3) Why you need a nervous system - gap fill exercise with extension task to illustrate how the nervous system detects a change and reacts to it.
4) How the structure of the nervous system is adapted to its function - starter task to sort parts of the body into sense organs, effectors, coordinators; information slides on the structure of the nervous system (CNS, peripheral nervous system).
5) How receptors enable you to respond to changes in your surroundings - information slides on how the nervous system works and the different types of neurons, AfL in gap fill and extension illustration task.
6) How Science Works - Required practical instructions, planning sheet and analysis worksheet with table to complete (print slides A4 for practical write-up), graph to plot results and follow up questions.
All activities come complete with fully integrated answers in the PowerPoint for peer/self assessment.
