Animal Sampling Lesson. The resource contains a power point to guide students through the lesson, and a task sheet for the students to complete during the activity. Circus activity instructions: You will need to print double sided and then laminate slides 5-16. This will become your sampling circus activity. It forms 6 stations, which you should place around the class room and tape down with the station number and questions facing upwards and the information facing downwards. In addition to these sheets, at each of the 6 stations you should put a tray with the corresponding piece of equipment on it. The students go around the room and study the item and think about what it may be used for an how. They fill in their thoughts on task one of their worksheet. After they have completed this, they then re-visit each station, turning the sheets over to reveal what they are used for and how, and complete task 2 of their task sheets.

This includes step by step instructions for students to build their own model and act out the lock and key hypothesis of enzyme action using plasticine. Can be used to introduce or reinforce learning on enzyme theory, and may be adapted to suit different classes. I have used for KS3 students, but may also be used for lower ability KS4 students. Works especially well for teaching about digestive enzymes. Their is also an accompanying power point which includes a rebus puzzle starter and guides students through the lesson.
