Main: Play the slide show (the slides automatically move on) twice through whilst students complete Pathogens Summary Table.docx AND collect information to sketch a mind map which summarises all the main information. When I do this type of activity I usually play some music on youtube in the background - its makes for a very relaxing but productive lesson.

A version of this table that can be used as a an activity where the cells of the table are cut out and students have to reassemble them. 3. A blank version of the table that can be used as a connect4 activity.

End of topic test for the above unit. Mark scheme included.

Full lesson including resources for the new 2016 AQA GCSE Biology course. Includes PowerPoint, worksheets and exam question.

A 3 page worksheet (including answers) to support the unit 3 (Quantitative Chemistry) of the above specification.

There is a question for EVERY learning outcome on the specification. It is broken down into C4a, C4b, C4c etc. They are particularly good for those students that struggle with revision. I also use these following end of topic tests to fill gaps in knowledge before a resit.

HIGHER LEVEL AQA GCSE Chemistry 9-1 (2016) Unit 2 Bonding, Structure and Properties of Matter - END OF TOPIC TEST

A simple end of topic test I have used as a resit to assess factual recall. Could be used for revision.

Part 1: Put 'parts of a leaf follow me cards' around the room and students complete the answer sheet (just putting the number of the cards they visit in order). The good thing is they can start at any number card. They will need access to information (e.g. text books to help them complete this unless you explain the science prior to the activity). The powerpoint has a leaf diagram animation to aid AFL after this activity. Part 2: Produce a foldable (shown on PPT) to help students to do these LOs: Define ‘transpiration’ and ‘translocation’. Describe how the roots, stems and leaves are adapted for transpiration and translocation. State the factors that affect transpiration and explain the effect they have. The page numbers given refer to the CGP revision guide but any text book should be sufficient.
