This resource consists of two documents with questions which focus on the AQA separate science content; one for higher students and the other for foundation. Each contains 63 questions, split into 21 weeks, with students completing one question from each discipline each week.
One of my pet hates as a teacher is when students say “use the same ruler” as a control variable for this experiment. So this slide and the next slide can be used to talk about why theoretically the type of ruler should not make a difference (unless they have significantly different surface areas).
You can then also get students to find out whether there actually is a significant difference, by getting them to carry out the ruler drop test as detailed on slide 4. This will get students to come up with there own method and then consider how to make there experiment accurate, valid, precise and repeatable.
The last task has them answer exam style questions and complete data analysis for a box plot.
This complete lesson requires only very basic equipment - 30cm rulers and 1m rulers. This resource is designed to:
Challenge students science skills
Revise the Paper 2 required practical
Create links between the Biology modules
The first slide is a starter based on a random mix of questions from other topics.

This complete lesson does not require any practical equipment. Instead, it gives them a written method of the decay practical which is slightly different from one they will have seen before and has them answer exam style questions based on this. This resource is designed to:

Revise the Paper 1 required practical

This excellent revision resource is a selection of very difficult exam style questions based on GCSE Biology. It is 128 marks worth of questions, with eight 6 mark questions. From my own personal experience, this will fill two revision lessons, and will help to create links between the different modules.
Could be used with A Level Biology students at the start of the year to bridge the gap between GCSE and A Level.
This resource does not contain a mark scheme, please email WTHresourceSH@gmail.com if you would like me to send you a mark scheme.
