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 task begins with pupils being asked to think > pair > share the specific characteristics that farmers might find favourable in cows, crops, chicken and sheep.
The next activity involves pupils watching a video on selective breeding and how this process works, pupils will need to answer questions as they watch the video. The work can be assessed when they finish using the mark scheme provided.
Pupils will now understand the process of selective breeding, the next task requires pupils to choose two dogs from a selection of dog breeds (pictures provided) to breed together in order to produce offspring with the traits the student would like. They can sketch a flow diagram to demonstrate how thus process occurs. The next activity is a worksheet on chicken breeds, once students have completed they can use the mark scheme to self or peer assess their work.
The final activity focuses on the problems with selective breeding, pupils are provided with some information which could be tag-read as a class. This can then be used to answer some quick-check questions. Once the questions are complete this work can be self-assessed using the answers provided.
The plenary task is for pupils to use a list of key words to write a summary sentence about what they have learnt from the lesson.
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 :)

great resource
Hi, great resources. I bought the bundle and this lesson is missing. How can I get this lesson? I can see it happened to someone else below, however I would love this lesson too :) <br /> <br /> Thanks so much
This was a good resource. It matches the specs perfectly and gives the pupils some challenge with the activities. It can be easily edited for lower ability groups. It saved me time, worth paying for.
I bought this resource as a bundle, but I noticed it is not the one described and is on cloning and not selective breeding, could you please add the selective breeding lesson? Many thanks. You're resources are really good.
