This revision resource has been designed with the simple aim of motivating the students whilst they assess their understanding of the content found in module 4.2.2 (Classification and evolution) of the OCR A-level Biology A specification. This module is often brushed over by students which leads to misconceptions and therefore time has been taken to explain the important concepts so that key points are recalled and retained. The resource includes a detailed and engaging Powerpoint (85 slides) and associated worksheets, some of which are differentiated to allow students of differing abilities to access the work.
The range of activities have been designed to cover as much of the content as possible but the following sub-topics have been given particular attention:
- The biological classification of a species
- Classification hierarchy
- The three-domain and five-kingdom classification
- The features of the five kingdoms
- Phylogenetic trees
- Anatomical, physiological and behavioural adaptations
- Calculating the standard deviation
- Continuous and discontinuous variation
In addition to these topics, some topics from other modules such as cell division and prokaryotic cells are tested in order to challenge the students on their ability to make links between the modules. The range of activities include exam questions and understanding checks as well as quiz competitions to maintain student engagement.

OCR A-Level Biology A Module 4 REVISION LESSONS
This bundle of 4 revision lessons have been designed to provide the students with lots of opportunities to evaluate their understanding of the topics found in module 4 of the OCR A-level Biology A specification. The bundle includes lessons which cover the three sub modules 4.1.1 (Communicable diseases), 4.2.1 (Biodiversity) and 4.2.2 (Classification and evolution) as well as a lesson to cover all of module 4 (Biodiversity, evolution and disease). As this module is often taught near to the end of the AS year, it doesn't always receive the time that the other modules do. With this in mind, each of the lessons has been written to include a wide range of activities that allow the important details to be covered and any misconceptions addressed.
