This is the lesson I use to deliver the Muscles topic for AQA and OCR A-level Biology.
It usually takes about 2 hours.
The lesson covers the arrangement of muscle fibres, the structure of a sarcomere, sliding filament hypothesis, neuromuscular junctions, fast and slow twitch muscles.
The diagrams in the worksheet support the powerpoint, giving students the opportunity to label or annotate their notes.
I have put comments into the powerpoint notes section to give ideas on how to use each slide/the purpose of each activity (like a mini lesson plan).
The sequencing activity can be laminated and cut up so that students can order the sliding filament hypothesis.
The exam questions are good for recall and application of knowledge.
I have found that this lesson works very well in helping students understand the topic.
Happy Teaching!
