This lesson is designed for the NEW AQA Trilogy Biology GCSE, particularly the 'Inheritance, variation and evolution' SoW.
For more lessons designed to meet specification points for the NEW AQA Trilogy specifications for Biology, Chemistry and Physics please see my shop: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/SWiftScience
The lesson begins with a recap on the relative sizes of structures found within the cell, starting with nucleotides & building up to nucleus and then cell.
The next task requires pupils to answer questions about the human genome whilst watching a video. This work can then be self-assessed using the mark scheme provided in the PowerPoint presentation.
The next part of the lesson shows students the structure of a DNA nucleotides and of the overall double-helix structure of DNA.
Pupils will then watch a video on the process of protein synthesis, pupils will need to answer questions whilst watching this video. Pupils can then self-assess their work using the mark scheme provided.
The final activity is for pupils to complete an exam-style question, pupils then either self-assess or peer-assess their work using the mark scheme provided.
The plenary task is for pupils to write a list of key words from the lesson today.
All resources are included at the end of the presentation. Thanks for looking, if you have any questions please let me know in the comments section and any feedback would be appreciated :)

HELP...I l have loved all your resources...except this one!! It has not been updated since the criticism 4 years ago, and the points made about protein synthesis are as valid now as they were then. Please tell me that you will have an updated AND much improved version of this resource available soon. Also, can it be made FREE to those of us who love your work, but hate this resource as it is unusable as it stands?
I second the comment below! - I normally do not have to edit your ppt but I had to change most of the slides. Quite a detailed topic and a video just does not cut it - more worksheets and afl needed.
I've bought several of your resources and they have been really great but I feel this one was not the same as the others. You essentially gave 2 5 minute TED videos for the students to watch followed by questions. That is not something that is worth paying for. Your video and therefore your questions for protein synthesis referred to mRNA and tRNA which are not on the AQA specification.
