I am a super dyslexic teacher, with a dash of ADD, all my resources are built with access in mind, because honestly, if they weren't I wouldn't be able to read them. Note the pastel tones, chunking and clear notation ques. As such my resources are also super easy to scaffold or stretch, and definitely easy to replicate. Please enjoy, and hang in there, at whatever school you're at, I can guarantee that those kids need you in their lives a lot more than you realise.

KS3 B5.7 Seed Spreading

(0)
A fun and quite straightforward lesson, students will learn how seeds are spread either by animals, wind or water and just what special adapatations animals can make in order to eat them. Combined with making paper helocopters to show how sycamore seeds spread this lesson doesn't dissapoint, super easy to extend and just as easy to scaffold. https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/matthewharman777 Be weird, be funny, be gross, have fun, play, stick to your routines and find that little spark of madness we all have and electrocute the class with it! My style of teaching isn’t for everyone, I’m a dyslexic teacher who’s heard it all, my lessons are all catered towards accessibility (because if they were not I’d never be able to read them myself). Everything is short sharp and to the point, I don’t believe in endless writing, reams of printing, spoon feeding diagrams or pointless activities. Every minute matters! Be sure to check out all my other resources, as a personal goal I intend to share all my resources at least once because hey, the government isn’t going to make it easier and we both know you are reading this way outside of your work hours. Enjoy, comment or rate if you can, but most of all hang in there, they need you way more than you realise!

For my year 7's this lesson is one of the first lessons they have with me, its a great opportunity to demonstrate that they are being trusted with expensive equipment but that there are big expectations to live up to, genuinely they are nearly always totally shocked once they see some onion cells or pondwater. https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/matthewharman777 Be weird, be funny, be gross, have fun, play, stick to your routines and find that little spark of madness we all have and electrocute the class with it!

KS3 P8.5 Reflection

A super fun lesson using ray boxes and lasers, students will work out the angle of reflection, calculate and draw incidence and reflected beams, culminating with the class groups each calculating the angle required to reflect a beam from each group, I have had one class of 8 groups succesfully bounce a laser all 8 times and reflect back to the whiteboard. All my students remember this lesson. Any laser will do but green is the coolest! https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/matthewharman777 Be weird, be funny, be gross, have fun, play, stick to your routines and find that little spark of madness we all have and electrocute the class with it!

KS3 P6.1 The earth inside

(0)
Students will build the earth with a cut and stick exercise, excellent chance to demo with household products (level them out by density), then swiftly moving onto convection current and the good ol golden syrup and biscuit convection current demo. You'll have to wait for it to cool down before anyone munches on it though. https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/matthewharman777 Be weird, be funny, be gross, have fun, play, stick to your routines and find that little spark of madness we all have and electrocute the class with it!

A brilliant little lesson that is a great visual, if you have a doorway and corridor to demo with it then its super handy, a ripple tank would also be a great demo, however there's everything you need on here to demonstrate how waves defract and reflect. https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/matthewharman777 Be weird, be funny, be gross, have fun, play, stick to your routines and find that little spark of madness we all have and electrocute the class with it!

I had a revalation for this lesson, get two of your most overt and dramatic kids, two piles of printer paper and get them to ram the piles together and BOOM, instant mountain range complete with stratified layers, take a picture, get the kids to sketch and its easily the simplest easiest way to get them to understand how orogeny works.
