You’ve gone out into the garden to pick some lovely vegetables for the Easter meal when suddenly, a strange looking fellow with long ears, a cute jacket and a basket full of shiny things appears at the gate. As you begin to call out, the rabbit hops away, leaving a trail of clues behind it. Will you solve all the clues to find the Easter bunny’s hideout and collect all the yummy chocolate eggs? Rooms include: • The Farmer’s Garden. Messy note: Learners need to read the passage and enter the missing words. They place these missing words in the squares and rearrange the coloured boxes to make an Easter associated codeword. • The Farmer’s Field. Shopping list: Can your learners find the hidden message in the receipt? Answer this to move to the next location. • The Meadow. Egg coding: The Easter eggs have a binary coded message for learners to solve. Begin at the bottom of the egg to find a 5-digit binary code then use the key to decode the word. Yellow=1, green=0. • The Forest. Through the looking glass: Learners cut out a panel and orientate this on the page to find a hidden message. Solve the riddle to move to the next location. • The Old Log. Suduko: The classic puzzle where learners fill in each grid so that every row across, every column down and every 3 by 3 box contains the numbers 1 to 9. Once complete, learners find the code by placing the numbers in the shapes in the correct order. • The Stream. Pathways: Spring time words are hidden in the grid. Learners create a continuous line from the start with words that can be horizontal, vertical or a mix! One word is missing from the grid, this is the codeword. • Down the rabbit hole. Tangram. Block puzzle. Pupils Arrange the cut-out shapes from their keys to fit the image below with the correct answers to each question. They then find the numbers which correspond to the numbers on the image. This will give a four digit code with an Easter theme which will unlock the door and find all the chocolate eggs! This resource includes: • PowerPoint with questions and map of the area, pupil instructions and teacher notes • 7 puzzle sheets, answers and keys Have fun and have a wonderful Easter! Any issues or errors please let me know and I’ll rectify ASAP. I don’t own any images in this escape room.

You’ve helped Santa make toys for good girls and boys all day. You were so tired after dinner that you’ve woken up to the grotto being locked- and you’re inside! Can you solve the puzzles to make your way through Santa’s Grotto and get yourself home before the big day? Rooms include: • The Reading Room (where Santa checks the naughty and nice lists). Matchsticks: Follow the instructions above each puzzle to complete them. To get the next key, pupils must give the three numbers on the right-hand side of the equals sign once you have solved the puzzles. • The Kitchen (where the reindeer treats are being prepared for a very long journey). Path puzzle: For this puzzle, pupils use all the grid of letters to create a continuous line from the start. There is one word missing from the grid. That’s the word needed to continue on. • The Light Room (where the Christmas tree lights are being tested for the festive season). Tree pyramids puzzle: Pupils Fill in the trees with the missing numbers. The number in each space is made from the sum of the two numbers below it. The key code for the next room is the sum of the top two numbers. • The Candy Room (where all the sweets are made!). Candy coding: The Candy canes have a binary coded message for pupils to solve. Begin at the bottom of the cane to find a 5-digit binary code then use the key to decode the word. Red=1, white=0. • The Workshop (where the science kits are being prepared for eager girls and boys). Pathways puzzle: To solve this puzzle, pupils mix the hydrochloric acid on the page with magnesium. Follow the pathways for both substances and record the symbols on the path. Decode using the cipher to find the answer to the question. • The Snow Room (because snow doesn’t just make itself!). Element words puzzle: Use the clue to find the word made from chemical element symbols. Rearrange the letters in the coloured boxes to make a Christmassy word. • The Front Door (how else did you expect to get out?). Block puzzle. Pupils Arrange the cut out shapes from their keys to fir the image below. They then Find the letters which correspond to the numbers on the image. This will spell A Christmassy word which will unlock the door and allow them to escape! This resource includes: • PowerPoint with questions and map of the Grotto, pupil instructions and teacher notes • 7 puzzle sheets, answers and keys Have fun and have a wonderful Christmas! Any issues or errors please let me know and I’ll rectify ASAP. I don’t own any images in this escape room.

This lesson is designed to meet specification points for the new AQA GCSE Trilogy Biology ‘Cells’ SoW. For more resources designed to meet specification points for the new AQA GCSE Trilogy Biology, Chemistry and Physics specifications please visit my shop: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/SWiftScience This lesson begins by pupils being introduced to the idea of stem cells, what they are and why they are important. Pupils will then watch a video about stem cells, the difference between adult and embryonic stem cells and their importance in medical research and treatments. Pupils will answer questions whilst watching the video and can self-assess their work using the answers provided once it has finished. Pupils will then need to summarise what they have learnt so far by completing a fill-in-the-blank task, this can be copied off the board or summarised in their book. The next activity is on stem cells in plants, pupils will be given some information on the board and will then need to answer questions about this information. The next activity will focus on the social, moral and ethical implications of using stem cells for medical research purposes. Pupils will need to read opinion/fact cards about the use of stem cells and firstly will need to discuss the pros and cons of using stem cells for medical research. The second task is for pupils to sort the information cards into ‘fact’ or ‘opinion’ columns - this can be self-assessed using the answers provided. The final plenary task is an exam-style question about use of stem cells, pupils can then self-assess their work.

This resource is aligned with AQA GCSE Biology revision carefully following the specification. It contains one question based graphic organiser/mind map with content on B1: Stem Cells. The answers are also included. How you can use this resource: Get your students to create their own GCSE mind maps by answering the information laid out in this resource. Use this task as an opportunity to outline areas for development by using retrieval practice. Set this as a homework task or revision task. Hold a GCSE biology revision quiz using this as your question paper. What’s inside: Mind-map with specification aligned questions on Stem Cells (from AQA B1 Combined Science Trilogy). Completed version of the mind-map with the answers Colour and B&W copies of both questions and answers. GCSE’s are fast approaching, the research tells us that retrieval practice is key to helping students retain information. I have outlined various strategies for incorporating retrieval practice into your lessons in the following blog post! Still unsure?
