I am a biology teacher who has many years’ experience working in the social care sector including managing care homes and home care services. I have been teaching health and social care and science since 2015, mostly to level 3 students. I believe learning is an active process helped by visualization of the processes. I create visual resources for both health and social care and science including BTEC and Cambridge Technicals in health and social care, BTEC applied science and GCSE biology.

They will not be able to revisit that card until they have finished going though all the cards. How quickly can they learn all the key terms? The game can also be played in small teams using a game board and counters. The group has a set of cards in a pile face down. Students will take it in turns for other students to ask them to define one of the key terms. If they get it right, they can move their counter one place up the mountain. If they get the answer wrong, they must make a note of the card and can study the card during the game. When all students get to base camp, they must have a last attempt to answer all the cards they could not manage earlier. The object of the game is for all students to reach the top of the mountain at the same time, so they need to help each other out. This resource includes: • A PDF document including 16 cards relating to the renal system. These should be printed double-sided so the key term will be on the back. • A PDF mountain climbing board.
