Muddy Water - Simple distillation

Muddy Water - Simple distillation

(0)
Year 7 Science lesson with cross-curricular themes. Practical where students are given a sample of muddy water and need to consider how they would clean this. After having an initial brainstorm, then give them the equipment and see if they can use this to draft their method. Link to citizenship, as students consider the work of Water Aid, and the global issue and consequences that arise from lack of clean drinking water. Very thought provoking lesson, and encourages students to think deeply on the subject matter. Students really enjoyed the challenge of this lesson. Was rated outstanding by observer.

Biology lesson on theme of Conservation Starter: images printed on the tables.Students to link these to previous learning (human impact on the environment, population) and try to decipher the topic of the lesson. True/false activity - students write 1-6 in the back of their books and decide whether each statement is true or false. At the end of the session, revisit this task and allow them to change answers. Then go through altogether and see who has improved their understanding since they first did this.Amazing way to show progress! Main: group activity, each group given information pack on a species, and they work to answer the questions in the presentation and design a conservation program. Comprehension activity to consolidate learning. Plenary: conservation loop game to be completed in small groups, good competition! This lesson was graded as OUTSTANDING.
