This lesson is designed for the NEW AQA Biology GCSE, particularly for the higher tier for the 'Infection & Response ' 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
This lesson begins by students being introduced to how bacteria are grown and then students will watch a video on the growth of bacteria, they will need to answer questions and then will assess their work using the answers provided. Using the information learnt from the video pupils will then need to fill out a method sheet to describe how you safely grow microorganisms on agar plates.
Pupils will then complete an exam-style question on what they have learnt so far as a mid-plenary and check their work.
(Optional practical activity: Instructions are given for pupils to now complete the practical to start growing cultures of bacteria on agar plates.)
The last half of the lesson will focus on mathematical skills related to working out the number of bacteria in a population. Pupils will watch a video to help them answer questions and then will need to complete questions by themselves, all answers are provided.
The plenary task is for pupils to summarise what they have learnt this lesson.
All resources are included at the end of the presentation.
