***Get 90% off the cost of your first resource worth up to £10 with code JANUARY90. New buyers only!*** A two-sided worksheet in which students can identify a variety of organs and colour them in. One side is a thoracic view, the other an abdominal. Goes well along side my PowerPoint presentation which can be used to help guide students through the dissection

A relay quiz in which teams compete to work through a series of questions, which provides an excellent opportunity for AfL. The content is focussed on A level Biology in vivo gene cloning. Instructions and markscheme included!

***Get 90% off the cost of your first resource worth up to £10 with code JANUARY90. New buyers only!*** Double sided A level worksheet on ATP and its uses. It has a particular focus on signalling pathways and cancer. Answers are included as well as a simple presentation to cover the key features of ATP

A PowerPoint which explores how DNA Methylation of promotors and Acetylation of histones affects gene expression. It is well illustrated and explores its implications in genetic disorders (prader-willi and angelman) as well as cancer. The worksheet then explores these concepts, which have suggested answers provided via the markscheme.

***Get 90% off the cost of your first resource worth up to £10 with code JANUARY90. New buyers only!*** A level Biology double-sided worksheet looking at the genetic code. This sheet has been produced with the AQA spec in mind but would be highly relevant to any A level Biology course. It touches on introns and exons, how to read a triplet table and the nature of the genetic code being Universal, Non-overlapping and Degenerate, whilst recapping some of the basics on nucleotides and amino acids. Also included is a comprehensive markscheme which you could scroll through via a projector to review with your class.

A single sided worksheet to guide students through the use of standard deviation when analysing and comparing data. It does not go over the calculation. Markscheme included

A visual 13 slide presentation which runs through the Sanger sequencing method in a fully animated comprehensive manner. The starter slide explores nucleotide structure and dideoxynucleotides. The slides then move onto the reaction, gel electrophoresis, autoradiograph production, and some key points about the value of genome sequencing.

This is a visual sheet with various questions, colouring activities and CLOZE tasks. It gives an overview of the whole of the topic - communicable disease examples, body’s front line defences, white blood cells and immunity, vaccines, anitbiotics and resistance, and drug development.It looks great in A3. I have produced this with my foundation students in mind, who are perhaps lacking motivation with the exam season fast approaching. However, there are questions dotted throughout to stretch the student’s thinking

GCSE Biology Enzymes Timed quiz which includes 12 questions which can be used as a good starter, plenary or general AfL

***Get 90% off the cost of your first resource worth up to £10 with code JANUARY90. New buyers only!*** GCSE Genes and inheritance revision relay quiz. A great team based games in which they compete to answer 16 questions correctly whilst giving you the opportunity to give verbal feedback! Instructions and markscheme included!

GCSE Science based 'pictionary' style cards - these 27 cards can be used in conjunction with the FREE notebook file (included, but also available separately). This is a great game for end of term

***Get 90% off the cost of your first resource worth up to £10 with code JANUARY90. New buyers only!*** An alternative task to assembling a human skeleton - engage your students by getting them to assemble a gorilla skeleton using the printout on card and split pins. Use this to teach about skeletal structure (organ systems), to compare homologous features between humans and apes whilst teaching evolution, or as a fun activity for your 'Science club'!

Cut and Stick activity and associated comprehension tasks, along with a projectable markscheme (PPT file). The cut and stick covers both stages of meiosis and genetic recombination, and provides a nice 20-30 minute activity that has proven to be an effective AfL task with my own classes, which was well received.

***Get 90% off the cost of your first resource worth up to £10 with code JANUARY90. New buyers only!*** Students have to complete a challenging cut and stick activity to consider impacts of base deletions, additions and substitutions, on the base and amino acid sequences.

***Get 90% off the cost of your first resource worth up to £10 with code JANUARY90. New buyers only!*** Engaging activity on DNA replication - students work through the sheet using pipe cleaners to explain why the evidence proves replication is semi-conservative and not conservative or dispersive. Focusses on the experiment involving bacteria grown on heavy and light N isotopes. All you will need are 2 pipe cleaners of one colour, and 14 of another colour, per group (cut them into shorter ones to make them go further!). It is a student led activity - the presentation is a markscheme which allows you to work through the correct answers via useful PowerPoint animations

***Get 90% off the cost of your first resource worth up to £10 with code JANUARY90. New buyers only!*** A Level Cut and Stick resource that covers - supplementation, replacement, viral and liposome vectors, germline and somatic and some of the ethical issues involved.

A three-sided worksheet that covers gene probes and genetic tests. It is specifically aimed for the AQA A level Biology spec, but will be appropriate for most exam boards. It assesses student understanding of some core principles, whilst running through how geentic tests are carried out for cystic fibrosis, huntington’s and digeorge syndrome (using chromsomal micro-array). Comprehensive and projectable markscheme included

Autosomal Linkage and Chi-Squared A Level Biology PowerPoint Presentation - 11 slides long. It is a comprehensive Powerpoint with useful animations which I have used many times to successfully walk my A level students through autosomal linkage. Most of the slides have information in the 'notes' section to help guide you through each slide. Covers the following: Why drosophila are used as a model organism Chi-squared in genetics Autosomal linkage How linkage is used in mapping Simple worksheet that has a CLOZE activity and answers
