These resources sheets (A5) are designed to cover the objectives of a lesson. They are designed to make students focus on specific reliable supported resources that will help them develop there understanding whilst they are preparing for future tasks. They are aimed specifically at all KS3 students but can very much be used for low to middle ability kS4 students. They can be used to prepare students prior to a lesson which can then allow you to go deeper into a subject. They help support students if they are completing presentations, good home based distance learning resources. Each resource has links to written and youtube sources. Each resource has differentiated objectives (by outcome), each resource has suggestions on how they could be used to present, mentor and deliver the content they have learned. These resources are covered: current and charge; endo and exothermic reactions; exam question technique; forces; photosynthesis; interdependence; graph skills; reactivity series and displacement; respiration; voltage and resistance. The ppt slides will need to be scaled to fit.

This task is designed to be quick to do for the student and quick for the teacher to mark. The task has 3 points that the student will need to cover. Teachers will only need to highlight the points that the student has down well and what is needed to be done. A good way to assess and address any misconceptions.

This is an effective way show students how to approach and write 6 mark questions. These work very well along side my more structured 6 mark template approach - which is not sold as part of this set. Students love these. This resource is a designed to be quick to set up (with exam pro or existing 6 mark questions), aid the student on how to structure there answer, write in feedback, from which they can then write an excellent response to the question. You will need to add in the 6 mark question of choice (paste it in). It consists of three slides. the first one is the student copy. step 1) Students do not write in the answer but write in the ideas and connectives that will them answer. Step 2) from exampro, the ideas or statements from the 6 mark answer will be in the ideas box. Students write in feedback and corrections in green. Step 3) students then write the answer. Give a time limit. Step 4) mark and give back feedback. I found this to be really powerful, particularly in step 2 with the metacognitive phase. I have thrown in an example to show you how to do it.

A set of twelve cards with things not to do in the lab. A bit of fun and good discussion point for what to do and what not to do in the Sci lab. It really gets the students thinking and gets them motivated. Taboo. At the top of the card is the thing that must not be done in the lab. The student has to describe to another student what that thing is, whilst not using the words on the card. As a bit of a challenge - students should not be allowed to make actions. Enjoy!!

Quick Generic Science HWK activities for all abilities. All you need to do is add the information needed for the task. This could be an image, bunch of words, links to videos, a couple of questions. This PPT has 6 different home work activities that can be quickly edited, uploaded or printed off. These have been designed with the busy teacher in mind but not sacrificing the quality of the home work for the students. Each task is differentiated by outcome and all the students need to do is follow the task, number by number. They are easy and quick to mark as well. Highlight the the task (WWW) that they did well in one colour and highlight the task (EBI) that they did not do well. I will always add something specific for the student to focus on. I have trialled these in my class room and the students have enjoyed them. Always encourage them to spend time thinking and research before answering. Plus, because the task are quite short when the students get going, its easy to only accept quality work.

These home works are designed to be quick to organise and easy to mark, without sacrificing the quality of the home work for the students. All you need to do is add the information required for the home work activity. The instructions are differentiated by outcome and they too can be modified depending on the task. These are quick to edit, upload and print out. My students love these. Marking them is quick. Highlight in one colour the task which is a WWW and in another colour an EBI. I always try and give a sentence or two that is specific to the student. This makes it easier to hand the home work back quickly and for the students to respond to their feedback.

This lesson is designed to get the students really thinking about Science Investigation variables and what these look like in other investigations they never have seen before. This is also designed to get students thinking about alternative equipment for practicals. This lesson comes with worksheets and fully differentiated with model answers. This lesson is aimed to be about 50 mins but can be made longer when modelling physical equipment. Aims: I can define and write what the independent, dependent and control variables are in a scientific investigation. I can find and say where the variables are in many different experiments and identify examples of equipment used. I can write a scientific investigation title using my knowledge of variables and identify how I might use different types of equipment. Starter. Do it now style activity 10 mins. Objectives Modelling of what independent, dependent and control variables are and what it may look like from a classic experiment. Plus linking to a investigation title. Student work on A3 student Worksheet. Sheets with practical pictures are around the room. student circulate to identify variables and equipment from the pictures. Differentiated Bronze to Diamond. Work though model answers. Students correct with green pen. Quiz to assess understanding.

These are support cards that will help students with the: key terms in investigation skills. how to write a method. How top draw a graph and what type of graph How to describe results from line graphs These cards will have sentences starters as well as how to calculate the gradient of graphs.

This is a bright and colourful lesson targeting students from grades 3 - 8. It has Challenge for all, with model answers for every question, a card sort and frequent opportunities for Assessment. Objectives: I can define what is meant by potable water and pure water I can describe and explain some stages of how potable water is obtained from fresh water sources such as a reservoir. I can apply the ideas from potable water to different scenarios. Questionings and class assessment. Main lesson content delivery. Card sort of water process (with clues for weaker students - memory task as an alternative before card sort) to allow students to absorb process. Class discussion about process and card sort correction. Assessment to lead students to differentiated worksheet. Extension question sheet. Model answers. Plenary

This lesson will cover an hour and is aimed at students with target grades 2 - 8. The tasks for students to complete will be on slide 2 which will need to be printed A3. Aims: I can define what is meant by finite, reuse and recycle - stating examples I can describe how re using and recycling materials decreases environment impact I can evaluate and analyse ways of reducing the use of limited resources Questioning Starter. Differentiated. Students can choose level of difficulty. Aims Content delivery Task 1 (with model answers) quick knowledge building task. Links into starter. Exam Style Question activity. Questions printed on A3 (three sets) and are taped on the walls of room. Students in pairs will add one sentence to answer the question. Keep the students moving from question to question building answers. 10 mins. Students at questions mark the Exam Style questions in green. Model answers on ppt. Quiz to assess all students and individuals. The score will differentiate starting points on the student worksheets e.g. Bronze silver and gold. These have model answers. Students mark- when you through the answers. Plenary.

This lesson is on Density. It its aimed at KS4 students but can be used for high able KS3 students. It has worksheets and assessment opportunities at the start, middles and during the lesson. The worksheets have model answers. It is has many metacogntive parts to this lesson.

This a complete GCSE Specific Heat Capacity (SHC) lesson. It has key opportunities for assessment, metacognition when going through the calculation. All examples of calculations have model answers for green pen corrections. The practical is the standard SHC practical with a block and an immersion heater, then using the results to calculate SHC. The main worksheet is differentiated by the points that students start at, which is assessed by a true and false quiz based on objectives. The worksheet has model answers for green pen corrections. This is either a slow paced two part lesson (1 - six) or a high paced lesson (for a students grades 5 - 9). My students loved it

This lesson is the first lesson for the GCSE Chemistry AQA unit Energy Changes. It can used for other boards who also cover this lesson. This is a fun, fast paced lesson. The purpose of this is to cover the description of, what each part means and how to draw energy profile diagrams before getting to the nitty gritty when explaining endothermic and exothermic reactions. Doing this lesson well means you can go deeper into the science later on in the unit. Objectives: I can define activation energy is I can describe activation energy and to link examples to it I can link energy profile diagrams to activation energy and explain what they are showing. Starter. Choice between literacy or mini quiz. Objectives. Deliver content and Modelling of energy profile diagrams. Practical work. Observe. Assessment. Whiteboards. This will help determine what tasks students will complete. Differentiated Worksheet. Feedback Using Model answers. Plenary. This lesson is a perfect base for the unit and can be quickly adapted for grade 8-9 students.
