<p>AQA GCSE Geography lesson for the new specification Unit 1C: In this lesson we look at types of hard engineering and where they are best applied.</p> <p>The starter is a quiz where the pupils need to select the squares that have a depositional landform. There are sound effects too so it’s all very exciting.<br /> We begin by looking at why certain areas of the coast need protecting and what factors go into consideration when planners are deciding whether or not to protect the coastline. The pupils are then given some information cards and a worksheet to fill in on the different types of hard engineering, they also have a visual scale to shade in for each one according to it’s effectiveness and durability, cost and sustainability. This can be done in a number of ways (group work, round the room, carousel etc). We then seek to apply this knowledge though the pupils completing a decision making exercise. This is based on a fictional town (Sandytown). The town has been divided into zones, the pupils read the information on each zone and decide what type fo hard engineering that zone needs and justify this.</p> <p>We finish with a 6 mark question on hard engineering with some guidance on how they can answer this.</p> <p>In a nutshell lesson includes:</p> <p>Interactive starter quiz on depositional landforms.<br /> Video clip.<br /> Hard engineering worksheet with visual scale.<br /> Decision making exercise activity.<br /> 6-mark GCSE-style question with guidance should the pupils need it.</p> <p>Hope this saves you some valuable planning time.</p> <p><a href="https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/markthegeographer">https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/markthegeographer</a></p>

<p>AQA GCSE Geography lesson for the 2016 specification Unit 1C: In this lesson we look at soft engineering methods of flood management.</p> <p>We start with a retrieval practice grid game based around the work we have undertaken in the rivers unit of work so far. The students then complete a cloze exercise to create a definition of what soft engineering is. The students then investigate flood warnings as issued by the Environment Agency and preparations by completing a guided reading exercise. We then look at three soft engineering strategies in turn: River restoration, flood plain zoning and afforestation. For each method, the students write a description, sort out the advantages and disadvantages and complete a task involving a diagram. There is a short video task on rover restoration. We finish with a 6-mark GCSE style question and there is some guidance for students who need it on how to answer it.</p> <p>Hope this saves you some valuable planning time.</p> <p><a href="https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/markthegeographer">https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/markthegeographer</a></p>

<p>AQA GCSE Geography lesson for the new specification Unit 1C: In this lesson we look at hard engineering methods of flood management.</p> <p>We start with a retrieval practice grid game based around the processes and landforms of erosion. The students then complete a cloze exercise to create a definition of what hard engineering is. We briefly introduce soft engineering, then the students have a blank diagram of a drainage basin which has undergone both hard and soft engineering strategies to reduce flooding. The students have to annotate the diagram and work out which is hard and soft engineering. The students are then given some information cards and have to record details on four methods of hard engineering:- dams and reservoirs, flood relief channels, embankments and channel straightening. The students record the advantages and disadvantages and complete a rating exercise for various factors. We finish with a 9-mark GCSE style question and there is some guidance for students who need it on how to answer it.</p> <p>Hope this saves you some valuable planning time.</p> <p><a href="https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/markthegeographer">https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/markthegeographer</a></p>

<p>AQA GCSE Geography lesson for the new specification Unit 1C: In this lesson we look at types of soft engineering and look at an example where they have been applied. We also use the lesson as an opportunity to practice some map skills.</p> <p>The starter is a simple retrieval practice grid based on the coasts unit of work. We begin by locating Crow Point which is an area in North Devon at risk from coastal erosion where soft engineering strategies have been used to prevent further erosion to the fragile dune system. The pupils will be given a large A3 sheet of paper with an outline map of the area including the dune system. The pupils then use grid references to add labels and features onto their map. Once they have completed this we look at the different types of soft engineering strategies and the advantages and disadvantages. The pupils are given grid references to the location these strategies have been applied. They locate them on their map and write the details in the appropriate box. We do this four all four strategies. This could be done as an info gather, round the room, carousel etc.</p> <p>We finish with a 4 mark question comparing hard and soft engineering with some guidance on how they can answer this.</p> <p>In a nutshell lesson includes:</p> <p>Retrieval practice starter<br /> Map skills practice<br /> Soft engineering information gather task<br /> 4-mark GCSE-style question with guidance should the pupils need it.</p> <p>Hope this saves you some valuable planning time.</p> <p><a href="https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/markthegeographer">https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/markthegeographer</a></p>

<p>Lesson covering gene modification/ genetic engineering. Lesson is pitched for grade 9-1 so includes the higher level part of how to genetic modify an organism. There is a worksheet of how E. Coli are used to make Human Insulin.</p>

<p>A series of seven short mulitple-choice quizzes that I use with my students when teaching the content of OCR Engineering Design R038 .<br /> Each quiz takes a couple of minutes to do and review - answers are all on the following slides - and are the perfect settler/starter activity and can lead to more indepth discussions.<br /> My students love them and get really competitive!</p>

This is a two-lesson activity that I designed to cover all of the Engineering Materials that students are required to know about for Unit 2: Product Investigation and the Unit 1: Exam. <br /> <br /> The presentation gives all of the answers to the worksheet, which has a number of gaps ready for the students to fill in. This can be delivered in a number of ways but I have found it best to deliver in a number of short bursts rather than a full lesson as it contains a lot of information. The worksheets can then be kept for revision purposes.

<p>The resource is a set of revision guides focusing on the primary functions of a bike with theory tailored for the WJEC Engineering level 1/2 course.</p> <p>They would benefit from having a visual aid (bicycle) in the classroom at the same time to help give context and meaning to subjects.</p> <p>This set of revision notes will be completed by students with QR codes embedded to promote independent study and further learning.</p> <p>Within resource are url links for teachers and exemplars to aid delivery.</p>

This lesson is designed for the NEW AQA Trilogy Biology GCSE, particularly the 'Inheritance, variation and evolution' SoW.<br /> <br /> For more lessons designed to meet specification points for the NEW AQA Trilogy specifications for Biology, Chemistry and Physics please see my shop: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/SWiftScience<br /> <br /> This lesson begins with a think &gt; share &gt; pair task for pupils to consider the definition of genetic engineering, once pupils have had a discussion about this the answer can be revealed. <br /> <br /> Pupils will then be shown a video about the steps involved with genetic engineering, pupils will need to answer questions whilst watching the video. Pupils can then check their work against the answers provided and correct anything they perhaps didn't get during the video.<br /> <br /> Pupils will then be given a diagram of the genetic engineering process, specifically using the example of the human gene for insulin being inserted into a bacterium. Pupils will need to copy the diagram into their books and choose the correct statements, from a jumbled list, to go with the correct steps. Pupils can self or peer-assess their work once this task is complete.<br /> <br /> The next part of the lesson is on the genetic modification of crops, pupils will firstly watch some videos which outlines various viewpoints of the growth and consumption of GM crops. Pupils should watch the videos and note down any benefits or problems they identify, a class discussion can follow this to ensure all students got the important points.<br /> <br /> The benefits of GM crops will then be highlighted to students with the aim to be used to feed the world's starving nations. After pupils have read through this they will be asked to come up statements that a collection of people might make about GM crops - an organic farmer, a charity worker for a world hunger organisation, a GCSE student and a GM scientist.<br /> <br /> The final activity is for pupils to complete the exam-style question on genetic engineering, once completed pupils can assess their work using the mark scheme provided.<br /> <br /> The plenary is for pupils to pick a task - either write a summary sentences including a list of key words or identify the questions for a list of answers. <br /> <br /> All resources are included at the end of the presentation. Thanks for looking, if you have any questions please let me know in the comments section and any feedback would be appreciated :)

Starters for engineering drawings to BS8888 These have helped my Year 10's in preparation and completion of engineering drawings to BS8888

If you use this resource please let me know what you think! Print these slides off in colour and spread them around the room, students can then collect information from the sheet about the different genetically engineered organisms. I think this is a good activity to illustrate the wide variety of ways that organisms can be genetically engineered.

Discussion of the main points of genetic engineering and some of it's uses with brief activity for students to state their view on the ethics of its use.
