An excel spreadsheet which automatically updates the colour of the columns depending if the homework has been completed, missed or is handed in late. It also adds up the total number of late or missing homework.

A murder mystery about why Barry the Bush died. This lesson uses clues put around the room to help students deduce why the plant died. A sheet is included for them to fill in, along with an extension sheet.<br /> <br /> SPOILER: Barry was murdered due to lack of Nitrogen in the soil, due to his enemy Simon the Sunflower giving him fake soil!

<p>Looking at Animal Cells<br /> Objective: To identify the parts of an animal cell and describe their functions</p> <p>Looking at Plant Cells<br /> Objective: To understand the similarities and differences between plant and animal cells</p> <p>Newspaper articles about plant cells for students to gather information from, as well as posters to put up around the room to gather information from to label a diagram. Uses a chocolate factory as a model to describe how the different organelles in plants function.</p> <p>Extra scaffolding sheets for SEN/Low ability. Textbooks with plant/animal cell diagrams would help support this lesson.</p>
