5 Biology Glossaries and 12 Crosswords (AQA 9-1 GCSE Combined Science Paper 1)
5 Glossaries and 12 crosswords to cover all of the Biology units of the AQA 9-1 GCSE Combined Science Paper 1 syllabus.
Cell Biology (3 cwd)
Organisation (Digestion) (2 cwd)
Organisation (Transport & Non-com Disease) (3 cwd)
Infection and Response (2 cwd)
Bioenergetics (2 cwd)
The crosswords are based directly on the glossary to encourage students to revise and then to test their recall. They are useful across the ability range. I tend to give neighbouring students different versions to discourage copying. They are roughly the same difficulty and could be used competitively.
Each crossword has about 20 words and an accompanying answer key with the same format as the original crossword for use on a projector for peer/self marking.
Regulation of blood glucose (A-level). 20 slide powerpoint, notes, two worksheets and a crossword
Animated, interactive powerpoint explaining glucose regulation and diabetes. Animations take students through the effects of hormones on liver/adipose/muscle cells (inc. carrier proteins / cAMP). The worksheets (including a crossword) complement the powerpoint. There is a ‘notes’ worksheet included so that students don’t need to copy the diagrams. Answer sheets included.

14 Biological Molecules Recall Tests
A complete set of 14 single-sided question sheets to cover all of the Biological Molecules section of the AQA A-level Biology specification. The questions are deliberately straightforward, to encourage students to revise and then to test their recall. They are useful across the ability range and would work well using a VLE. They don’t say ‘test’ on them and could be used as consolidation during a lesson.
(I started with the carbohydrate one which is why the second one has a bit of a recap of the first. Students needed a bit of a second chance once they realised what was required)
Each sheet is single-sided and has between about 22 and 30 marks
Every sheet has an accompanying answer sheet with the same format as the question sheet for use on a projector for peer/self marking.
Gas Exchange in Fish and Insects
Animated, interactive powerpoint which guides students through the countercurrent system of fish gills and the tracheal system of insects (28 slides). It is hyperlinked so that you can choose which bits to show. The accompanying document comprises three worksheets and answer sheets. They use a variety of cloze / colouring / short answer questions
Hardy-Weinberg Principle (Powerpoint and three accompanying worksheets - with answers)
A fully illustrated, hyperlinked, animated powerpoint presentation (21 slides) introduces the Hardy-Weinberg principle. Includes assumptions, derivation and three examples: Banded snail, Rhesus and Kuru (a prion disease caused by cannibalism in New Guinea). The word document includes 3 double-sided worksheets and full answer sheets. They were written to accompany the powerpoint. Aimed at A-level students.
Classification - A-level (Powerpoint and two worksheets)
Fully hyperlinked 30-slide powerpoint and two worksheets. Used with A-level students.
Written in frustration at the lack of material available to stretch bright students on this subject; classification and phylogeny. The concepts can be difficult for students from 14-16 yrs but they do engage with them. Designed to generate discussion about some of the more contentious issues involved in classification. Two double-sided worksheets with answer sheets.

I use them both as we finish a topic and later on as revision
(either as tests or revision activities)
