There are many uses for this resource depending on ability
High Ability
Higher sets are asked to read the review sheet as homework before the lesson, perhaps asking for a word glossary or mind map to be produced. The starter for the lesson would be to complete the work mat from memory, then switch to another colour to complete using the Information Mat (review). The rest of the lesson I ask a high ability set to apply the knowledge.
Low Ability
Lower sets are able to independently complete the work using the Information mat (review) and work mat together, they can read and simply find the answers.
Bioenergetics - A complete set of information mats AND worksheets/ work mats for students to collect and organise the information they require to meet the AQA specification. No books or other sources required as I have written all materials to work together and allow the students to work independently.
