This dyslexia-friendly lesson is aimed at low to middle ability 11-14 year old learners. It can easily be spread over two lessons, as I have included two practical opportunities. Language is kept minimal to reduce confusion.
Animations take learners through the flow of blood from arteries to capillaries to veins, and from heart to lungs to heart again. You’ll need to practice the timing of when to click some of the animations forward, as I have included deliberate ‘pause points’ to allow you to gauge understanding, or for learners to predict what will happen next.
Teacher notes are provided for a practical and a demo. A crossword is provided (with and without a word bank) and comes with an answer sheet.
The PowerPoint uses dyslexia-friendly background, font, and character spacing. Icons indicate the nature of each section - e.g. group work, video, or note-taking. Key words, definitions, and phonetic pronunciation are also included in the PowerPoint. Feedback on this dyslexia-friendly style would be greatly appreciated!
