<p>A complete set of 14 single-sided question sheets to cover all of the Biological Molecules section of the AQA A-level Biology specification. The questions are deliberately straightforward, to encourage students to revise and then to test their recall. They are useful across the ability range and would work well using a VLE. They don’t say ‘test’ on them and could be used as consolidation during a lesson.</p>
<p>(<em>I started with the carbohydrate one which is why the second one has a bit of a recap of the first. Students needed a bit of a second chance once they realised what was required</em>)</p>
<p>Each sheet is single-sided and has between about 22 and 30 marks</p>
<p>Every sheet has an accompanying answer sheet with the same format as the question sheet for use on a projector for peer/self marking.</p>
<p>A revision mat covering the following biological molecules topics:</p>
<ol>
<li>Carbohydrates</li>
<li>Lipids</li>
<li>Proteins</li>
<li>Food tests</li>
<li>Deficiency diseases</li>
<li>Types of carbohydrates</li>
<li>Nutritional labels</li>
</ol>
<p>Can be printed on A4 or enlarged to A3 paper size.</p>
<p>Also comes with a <strong>bonus</strong> biological molecules word search and matching activity.</p>
<p>Complete with <strong>solutions</strong>.</p>
<p>Digital worksheets covering biologyical molecules (protein, carbohydrates and lipids).</p>
<p>Each worksheet contains interactive elements, questions and research tasks.</p>
<p>Completed worksheets are also provided.</p>
<p>This lesson covers the structure of:</p>
<ul>
<li>Carbohydrates</li>
<li>Proteins</li>
<li>Lipids</li>
</ul>
<p>Packed full of tasks WITH answers!</p>
<p>Chapter 3 unit from the OCR Biology A A-Level all about biological molecules.</p>
<p>*The unit was planned with the intention of carrying out flipped learning whereby students do pre-reading on the topic prior to the lesson so that we can consolidate that learning with activities/exam questions during the lesson.<br />
*</p>

<ul>
<li>3.1 Biological elements</li>
<li>3.2 Water</li>
<li>3.3 Carbohydrates</li>

<li>3.10 Protein synthesis</li>
<li>3.11 ATP</li>
</ul>
<p>A comprehensive lesson which teaches students about the properties of water which make it essential for life. This lesson was designed to fit needs of the AQA a-level biology course</p>
<p>Tasks are differentiated to suit the needs of each learner.</p>
<p>Learning objective: Explore the properties of water and the role of inorganic ions in biology.</p>
<p>By the end of the lesson learners should be able to:</p>
<p>Success Criteria:</p>
<ol>

<p>Describe hydrogen bonding in water.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Explain the functions of inorganic ions.</p>
</li>
</ol>
<p>Powerpoint contains 26 slides.</p>
<p>Contains past paper questions that target this topic, some questions require knowledge from prior lessons.</p>
<p>A revision worksheet for Edexcel IGCSE Biology. It covers carbohydrates. Teachers could use it as a quick revision and students would love the visually appealing layout of the questions.</p>

<p>Thanks for looking</p>
<p>Revision booklet for the Biological Molecules topic from A Level Biology. Intended for OCR, however can be used for AQA and Edexcel.</p>
<p>Includes recall sections, exam questions and organises all the biological molecules separately.</p>
<p>Can be used for revision lessons or extended homeworks (I used to set my students to complete 1-2 pages per week for homework whilst teaching the topic in lessons) or can also be used as an interleaving project. (Especially if some Y13 pupils need some brushing up on Y12 content!)</p>
<p>A self marking, fully editable, Microsoft Forms quizzes on biological molecules and food tests (carbohydrates, lipids, proteins and test for them). Made for the Edexcel IGCSE Biology course, but would work for any GCSE Biology course. Makes a solid starter, end of lesson review or homework activity.</p>
<p>Provided here is the quiz and instructions for how to duplicate it, a PDF version of the quiz and instructions to set it for your students.</p>
<p>A free quiz on cell division is available here: <a href="https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/resource-12931038">https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/resource-12931038</a> and an example of what the quiz looks like for students to complete (enzymes quiz) is here: <a href="https://forms.office.com/e/vwBbUfxLKA" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://forms.office.com/e/vwBbUfxLKA</a></p>

AS Biological Molecules Revision Mats - covering Carbohydrates, Lipids, Proteins and Nucleic Acids<br />
I get students to complete these for end of topic revision - usually print them out onto A3 paper
<p>Follow my <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@biologywitholivia?lang=en" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">TikTok</a> and <a href="https://www.instagram.com/biologywitholivia/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Instagram</a> @biologywitholivia to see these notes in action. Any questions please email <strong><a href="mailto:hello@biologywitholivia.co.uk" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">hello@biologywitholivia.co.uk</a></strong>.</p>
<p><strong>DESCRIPTION</strong></p>
<p>Drawing on my experience as a teacher and extensive analysis of <strong>past papers, mark schemes and examiner reports</strong>, I’ve created ‘model answer’ notes that cover every point on the <strong>AQA specification</strong> (including required practicals).</p>
<p>These notes are presented in an easy-to-use <strong>Q&A format</strong>. <strong>Colour coding</strong>, <strong>diagrams</strong> and a <strong>simple layout</strong> makes learning easy.</p>
<p>After each sub-topic, you’ll find a list of <strong>common mistakes</strong> that will help you beat those specific mark schemes.</p>
<p>Having refined these over the last <strong>3 years</strong> alongside working as a <strong>teacher</strong>, I’ve seen first-hand the results they can achieve. I’m confident that they will be an invaluable tool to you.</p>
<p><strong>TOPICS INCLUDED (BIOLOGICAL MOLECULES)</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Monomers and polymers</li>
<li>Carbohydrates</li>
<li>Lipids</li>
<li>Proteins</li>
<li>Required practical 1</li>
<li>Nucleic acids</li>
<li>ATP</li>

A PowerPoint that covers organic molecules. Includes animations of the condensation reaction. It has been devised for OCR AS Biology Unit 2, but should be usable with other exam boards as well.
<p>Created to match 9-1 Edexcel IGCSE. This power point presentation has all about carbohydrates, protein and lipids. It does not contain enzymes which will be uploaded soon as a separate presentation.</p>
