Intro to Lab Skills (with experiment)

(0)
If you are keen to get your student completing labs, but they don’t have too much experience using lab equipment yet, start them off with this ‘intro to lab skills’ lab! Using a simple method to mix and then separate salt and water, we can give our students a chance to practice lots of different lab skills, including: Working safely in the lab by wearing safety goggles Measuring volumes of liquids Measuring mass of solids Setting up a Bunsen burner correctly Using a Bunsen burner safely Making observations using keywords Included in this resource are: Teacher notes Bell-ringers x2 & exit tickets x2 (for you to choose which is most appropriate) Optional booklet front page to print out if you want to present it to students as a booklet. Student friendly instructions and risk assessment Comprehension questions to secure student understanding of the method Drawings and explanation of the lab equipment required (designed to help students write the method themselves) Student written method and risk assessment worksheet (if you want the students to write their own methods). A page for observation writing, along with keywords and definitions that could be used. The equipment you will need to be able to complete the lab include: Beakers, measuring cylinders, stirring rods, balance, weight boats, Bunsen burners, tripods, gauze mat, heat proof mat, salt, water. Printouts of the worksheets.
Heart Structure Worksheets
KaylaWilliams89KaylaWilliams89

Heart Structure Worksheets

(0)
These heart structure and function worksheets are designed to help your High School students learn all about what is the heart structure and function. Included in this pack are: Diagrams & labels of the heart (heart anatomy diagram worksheet) - for cutting and sticking into books. A colourful pre-labelled heart (how heart works diagram) - ideal for peer/self assessing student work. A large blank heart diagram & large labels - ideal for getting ideas together before students label their own (laminate for multiple use!) or for reviewing the information at the end of the lesson. Key words - designed to help students writing their own explanation/description of how blood travels through the heart. A word fill activity using the same key words. A completed written answer - to be used as a model or for peer/self assessment (heart structure worksheet answers included). By the end of the lesson I would expect students to understand how does the heart’s structure help its function. There is a lot of variety around how you can use these resources! Please see below for descriptions of how I have used them in my classroom. If you are planning on using all the resources, I recommend taking more than one lesson. For some teaching tips on how to teach anatomy of the heart, I have written an extensive blog post which includes how I would plan a whole teaching unit around the heart and circulatory system. Head to the link to my website in my TES shop! How I have used this resource: Previously I have allowed students time to look at the labelled version, and then attempt to label the large diagram in pairs on their table. Then they can look at other groups to compare. The cut and stick diagram takes a little time, ideal if you have a class that need to keep their hands busy for an afternoon! I presented the written activity as a short essay style answer where they had to ‘describe the journey of the blood through the heart’. I gave them the key words to start with, and encouraged them to highlight words they used as they wrote. I gave my SEN students the word fill (I have students with dyspraxia and dyslexia, they struggle with writing big blocks of text from scratch). After the activity, I gave them the model answer - they looked through it, and added any detail they had missed (I asked them to underline/highlight what they had added so I could see what their original work looked like). Product: worksheet heart anatomy, structure and function.

A printable page for students with the lesson titles listed, along with the spec link and a RAG analysis for them to be self-reflective. Editable PPT’s for the 4 lessons included.

Seed Dispersal Investigation Lesson
KaylaWilliams89KaylaWilliams89

Seed Dispersal Investigation Lesson

(0)
Designed for introducing your KS3 students to ecosystems and the processes behind seed dispersal including a practical investigation. This lesson plan is fully prepped covering key vocabulary and gives students the opportunity to investigate seed dispersal by wind with a fun lab! What is included: In this file you get the lesson powerpoint and a corresponding keyword list with definitions included, you also get a knowledge organiser to help students throughout the topic. I have left the design simple but editable - this is due to schools in my area having specific requirements around colours and fonts. Seed Dispersal Lab: Students will use the paper helicopter template to investigate sycamore seed dispersal. Paperclips, scissors and a ruler will be useful for the investigation element. Students love decorating their seeds and sticking them in their notes after the experiment! The lesson plan follows the following 4 phase structure: Activate: 6 recall questions designed to get the students either retrieving previous knowledge linked to this or prior topics. These have been designed with my students in mind - they may look different for your students! Model: Set the scene for the lesson and outline key new knowledge. Show students how to approach a question or task. Practice: Give the students opportunities to use the new knowledge provided and attempt the tasks modeled in phase 2. Review: Check students grasp of new concepts with a quick review activity. On the first page of the PowerPoint, there is a link to a Google Drive containing the same resources just in case you teach in a Google school! Please note: This lesson is the second lesson in a topic covering ecosystems. You can get the first lesson for free by clicking the link below: FREE: Lesson 1 - Introduction to Ecosystems Lesson 2 which covers food chains and webs, can be found here. Lesson 3 which teaches students about predator prey relationships can be found here. Lesson 4 - human impacts on ecosystems can be found here. Lesson 5 covers the process of bioaccumulation, that can be found here. Lesson 6 - invasive species can be found here. Lesson 7 Learning the parts of the flower (including a lab).
