Set of lessons that have covered the unit 8 digestive system assignment C. This was taught over double lessons (2hrs) with access to IT for lesson 2 so might need splitting up if you teach in single lessons.
Lesson 1: Digestive system function and parts
Lesson 2: Enzymes and what they break down
Lesson 3: Absorption of nutrients and methods of absorption
Lesson 4: Nutrient uses and deficiencies
Lesson 5 (only 1 hour): Diseases that affect the digestive system and lead to deficiencies
Lesson 6: Food tests
Also included:
Help sheet given to students with bullet pointed structure for assignment completion.
Help sheets to allow students to complete assignments with a bit more support. This unit is very individual but should allow all students to achieve distinction.
A broadsheet that is useful for revision of the homeostasis unit. This doesn’t include human reproductive hormones as I teach this when I do reproduction and contraception.
Help sheets created for students to help with assignments. Students find the bullet point list/checklist idea helpful when creating a report and can follow it better than assignment briefs.
An intervention lesson based around data in science questions that students have struggled with. Lasts an hour. Questions taken from AQA spec and printed as a booklet.
A lesson I created for year 7’s but can be used throughout GCSE. The list of adaptations needs to be printed and cut out. There are two levels of demand for the list of adaptations - I printed these on 2 different colours of paper (pink and blue). The adaptations need to be placed around the room and students need to match them up to the polar bear, cactus, or camel.
