New AQA GCSE Biology 9-1 specification. Topic 5 - Homeostasis and Response is very large so I am splitting into two packs this is part 1.
Topic 5 part 1. This pack covers all of these theory topics; homeostasis, the nervous system, synapses and reflexes, the brain, the eye, correcting vision defects, negative feedback. The brain and an eye picture will need sourcing by the students - a fun activity has been suggested within the pack (in the notes at the bottom of slide) for the students to practise these drawings and create their own - it will really get them learning!
These cards are useful for students to use for revision (print 2 to a page), and for teachers to use in a lesson as an activity or plenary. Good instructional material for a flipped classroom.
Includes a 'Do' and 'Review' slide, the 'Do' will check understanding and make the learning more active, the 'Review' can help students check answers and act as a revision card. Equally works well as a starter for the next lesson to check retention. Many uses e.g. support mats, starter, plenary, revision etc.
These slides help pupils gain the skills and experience required for the 11+ Verbal Reasoning and Non- Verbal Reasoning papers. These were put together in the GL assessment style, although can also be good practise for any reasoning style papers. There are a range of activities to build skills and expertise from match ups to investigations, including a mastery task at the end which can be used as a timed activity. There is plenty here for a 1 hour lesson/workshop, good for 1:1 or classroom.
Includes: Numeracy, Literacy, Word Opposites, Related Numbers, VR Coding, NVR Coding and Make the Word.
I hope this will help teachers, pupils, and parents tutoring their children through the 11+.

New AQA GCSE Physics 9-1 specification. Four tarsia activity puzzle documents included on; energy, electricity, particle model, atomic structure. Each one produces a different shape, there is one domino, one triangle, a rhombus and a standard parallelogram.
My students have loved these activities, they are fun to work on in pairs, they guide the students to revise the particular key words etc that I know they will need to recall, and used together with my support mats (a large print out of my active revision card activities), the students can look up anything they are unsure of (they can quickly go over the content again).
OR a useful marking free homework - at a glance check the student have correct shape, can be peer marked by posting up the solution on the board.
You will require the free tarsia software downloaded to your computer, simply google it and install, if you would like on your school computer your computer technicians should be happy to help.

New AQA GCSE Biology 9-1 specification. Four tarsia activity puzzle documents included - I have produced two versions of each (both included in the zip file - total 8 documents). One version is ideal for trilogy, and another (named triple) ideal for biology as a single science. Both are aimed at higher tier candidates, you can adapted to suit foundation tier students if required.
Covers the topics; cells, organisation, infection, bioenergetics. Each tarsia produces a different shape, there is one domino, one triangle, a rhombus and a standard parallelogram. The triple version includes the part of the topic for biology only and is slightly more difficult as there are questions around the edges/ or bigger version of the puzzle.
