A PowerPoint presentation for AQA GCSE Chemistry - Organic Chemistry, Hydrocarbons and crude oil. Full lesson in a learning loop format.

Get hands on with science at home! Make your own skittle rainbow using resources you most likely already have at home, or you can easily purchase from a supermarket. A fun activity that most primary and secondary students can engage with (ideally suited to KS2/KS3). Includes a list of resources, easy to follow method, scientific description of how it works, things to think about and questions to answer. Please comment if you have any questions or feedback.

PowerPoint introducing monomers and polymers for AQA A Level Biology Unit 1 - Biological Molecules

AQA required practical 12: Investigation into the effect of a named environmental factor on the distribution of a given species. Template and accompanying PowerPoint presentation for students to plan and write up their investigation for practical 12. Designed to be conducted over a 2 hour session with an onsight investigation. Exam questions included have been taken from https://www.tes.com/member/m_adanah who also provides a free template for this practical and many others. Specification points covered: The size of a population can be estimated using: • randomly placed quadrats, or quadrats along a belt transect, for slow-moving or non-motile organisms • the mark-release-recapture method for motile organisms. The assumptions made when using the mark-release-recapture method Students could: • investigate the distribution of organisms in a named habitat using randomly placed frame quadrats, or a belt transect • use both percentage cover and frequency as measures of abundance of a sessile species. Students could use the mark-release-recapture method to investigate the abundance of a motile species.

This lesson is designed to follow a lesson on the homeostatic control of blood glucose concentration. The lesson explores type I and type II diabetes for AQA A level biology. Exam Qs are included but one worksheet referenced is on Kerboodle so cannot be shared. The end of the lesson introduces RP11. Specification points: The causes of types I and II diabetes and their control by insulin and/or manipulation of the diet. Students should be able to evaluate the positions of health advisers and the food industry in relation to the increased incidence of type II diabetes. Required practical 11: Production of a dilution series of a glucose solution and use of colorimetric techniques to produce a calibration curve with which to identify the concentration of glucose in an unknown ‘urine’ sample.

A flow chart for pupils to use to decide if something is an element (atomic or molecular), compound or mixture. Useful to generate pupil discussion about what the difference is between elements, compounds and mixtures.

A worksheet I created to guide less confident students through calibrating and using a graticule to measure a cell. Suitable for GCSE and A Level Biology. I teach AQA but could be used for other specifications. AT d - use of light microscope at high power and low power, including use of a graticule
