Attached is four resources, the first two are the marking stickers. The topic has been broken down into two different stickers, but you could combine them if needed. The second two are a reference handout for students to use to help them when responding to marking and completing the tasks necessary to fill the gaps in their learning. The final resource is information on specialised cells to be used as reference for one of the DIRT tasks. On the marking sticker, colour code the different learning outcomes when marking their books as either red, amber or green to make it simple for the pupils to see which outcomes they need to focus on and which they are fine with. Or these stickers could be altered by adding an additional column and using WWW and EBI instead. Both are effective methods of providing feedback for pupils. The bottom two boxes allow for tasks to be set and any more generalised feedback to be provided by ticking any relevant boxes. The second attachment is the resources to be used by the pupils in a feedback lesson (DIRT lesson). I print the slides off two to a page, back-to-back with one between two for pupils. This provides them with the tasks necessary to meet the learning objectives and close any gaps in learning. I find these tasks much easier for pupils to use than simply directing them to textbook pages. Some of the pictures and questions taken from other resources and compiled here. Hope these resources help with your marking and feedback, if so please leave a review and feel free to view other resources I have.

Complete lesson on Preserving Biodiversity, designed for the new Activate Scheme but can be used for other syllabus’ as well. Includes definitions of extinction and conservation, gene banks and captive breeding. There are you tube videos included to support learning and a challenge grid of questions that can be printed and given to the students. The questions are differentiated with red being lowest level to green being highest with a challenge question in purple to stretch the higher ability students and get them thinking about the importance of conservation. Check out my other resources and if you like this lesson, please leave a review.

KS3 lesson on Genetic modification, looking at what it is, some examples and then discussion on what the problems could potentially be with GMOs. Lesson includes video, discussion, questions and activity where students need to create a cartoon strip on how GMO are created. If you would like to use an alternative activity, you could get students researching and writing a newspaper article on GM crops and the advantages and disadvantages. This would however, require a second lesson with access to computers/GM research. Please leave a review and check out my other resources. Thanks

Challenge Question pyramid based around the initial lessons for science for Year 7. Differentiated questions with easiest questions being worth 5 points and hardest question being worth 30 points. I usually set this as a challenge giving the students 20 mins to try and reach 100 points. Students highlight each question as they attempt them. This challenge can be approached in different ways from picking the easier questions and answering more questions or having less, but more challenging questions. It often surprises me as to how many students will challenge themselves to the harder questions and push themselves. Answers are included so students can self/peer assess. If you like this lesson, please leave a review and check out my other items.
