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.

BTEC health and social care anatomy and physiology reproductive system bingo

(0)
Reproductive system bingo for BTEC level 3 health and social care unit 3: Anatomy and Physiology. Students learn best when you make learning fun. I have always found that bingo is a firm favourite of students no matter which level of learning they are at. I usually have a box of prizes for the winner of the line and the full house to choose from for added motivation. The reproductive system includes a lot of new and complicated key terms which students can find difficult to learn and remember. This bingo game includes 20 of these key terms with 30 unique bingo cards to ensure you have enough for your class. By asking questions rather than just reading out the key term, students must first answer the question correctly before they can determine whether that key term is on their bingo card. This game can also be played in pairs and small groups to encourage discussion about the question enabling deeper learning. This resource includes: • PDF bingo cards with two cards per sheet. • PDF question sheet with tick box so you can tick off which questions you have asked. The resource can be used at the beginning or end of a lesson and will probably take about 15-20 minutes to complete. If you would like to test your students’ understanding of the processes relating to reproduction, why not try the reproductive maze game which includes 43 questions on the reproductive system. Enjoyed bingo? Homeostasis bingo is also available. If you would like more revision games to make learning fun, why not try the Anatomy and Physiology revision game bundle.

BTEC health and social care anatomy and physiology respiratory system wheel of fortune

(0)
Respiratory system wheel of fortune for BTEC health and social care unit 3: anatomy and physiology As well as including a lot of complicated key terms, respiration involves complicated processes which can be difficult to learn and explain. This revision game focuses on the understanding of the processes but adds competition and an element of luck to make learning fun. The game includes 30 questions relating to the respiratory system which should be laid out in rows in front of the class. Students can play in teams which will take it in turns to answer a question. The question to be answered is determined by the wheel of fortune spinner which will randomly select a number. The element of luck comes in because, if that number has already been answered correctly, that student is let off the hook and does not have to answer a question. To work the wheel, click on it to make it spin and click on it again to make it stop so the pointer will point to a particular number. As the questions are open questions requiring longer answers, you can determine how full an answer is required for each question. The questions can also be used without the wheel. Each student or group could be given a different question to answer. They must give the best answer they can and the rest of the class can give points for their response or suggest what else should have been included in the answer. The game is an ideal revision game but can also be used as a quick starter or plenary. Not all of the 30 questions need to be asked so the game can take as long as you want it to. Included in this resource: • PowerPoint wheel spinner to select a number between 1 and 30. • A PDF document with 30 question cards. Print double-sided to print the question number of the back of the card. • Answer sheet with suggested answers for each question.

There are several ways to play the game including both individual and team games. Students can play individually by laying the 16 cards face down in 4 rows of 4. They must start from the top right and define and locate the key term on the card. If they get the answer correct, they can leave the card face up, if not they must turn it back over again. 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.

BTEC health and social care anatomy and physiology tissue Guess Who

BTEC health and social care anatomy and physiology tissue Guess Who

(0)
Tissue Guess Who for BTEC level 3 health and social care unit 3: anatomy and physiology I find that students find it difficult to differentiate between the different types of tissues. Tissues can be divided into to specific groups making it the perfect subject for a game of Guess Who. Each student or small team should have a set of cards laid out in front of them in four rows of four. Each student can choose (or have chosen) a tissue that the other team has to guess. They must take it in turn to ask the other team about their tissue to gradually eliminate possibilities and eventually guess their tissue. To avoid random guesses, students are not allowed to guess the actual tissue until they are down to just two options. Instead, they could eliminate tissues by asking questions about the type of tissue (connective, muscle?) or functions or locations within the body. When tissues have been eliminated, those cards should be turned face down. This is a surprisingly challenging game as students need to know a lot of features of all the tissues in order to correctly eliminate cards. Playing in small teams allows students to discuss features with each other enhancing their learning further. The resource consists of two PDF sheets containing 8 tissue cards each. Remember to print single sided in order to cut the cards out. It is a good revision game to bring out any time after the main topic has been covered and will last about half an hour. If you like this resource, why not try the anatomy and physiology revision game bundle which includes different games for each of the different topics for this unit.
