The lesson introduces students to required practicals and microscopy.
Lesson consists of:
Starter
Explanation of required practicals
Learning Objectives
Labelling a microscope diagram
Introduction to biological diagrams (with examples)
Instructions for making own slide of animal and plant cell (RP only requires plant cell)
Extension sheets
Plenary
All resources are included in this pack.
This pack is planned for a 75 minute lesson.
Lesson for Mass Flow Theory of Translocation for A-Level Specification.
The lesson includes exam-style questions, as well as diagrams and explanations.
There is a Mass Flow Theory Display to match this, for free in my profile.
The idea of these was for students to stick them into the back of their books. The different categories on the cards then allow three different groupings for the class.
The three groupings are:
Metal/Non-metal
Group No
Period No
This means students won’t forget groupings that they are in, as well as familiarising themsleves with a particular element.
Lesson consists of:
Starter
My Expectations
Learning Objectives
A task thinking about what scientists do
A task evaluating different scientific discoveries
Plenary

A display to show the structure of Xylem and Phloem cells, including companion cells, which can be used to show how Translocation and the Mass Flow Theory work, as well as Cohesion-Tension Theory.
The resource includes 6 sheets, 5 sheets to show structures of vessels, and one sheet with molecules on, to be cut out and used on the diagram.
There is a Translocation and Mass Flow Lesson available on my profile which matches the resource well.
