Designed for introducing your KS3 students to ecosystems and the idea of human impacts on ecosystems, this includes plastics in the oceans and the impacts of agriculture. This lesson plan is fully prepped covering key vocabulary and teaching students how population sizes of predators and prey are connected. What is included: In this file you get the lesson powerpoint and a corresponding keyword list with definitions included, you also get a knowledge organiser to help students throughout the topic. I have left the design simple but editable - this is due to schools in my area having specific requirements around colours and fonts. Independent research and opinion forming: This lesson has a research task (sources provided). The students will read about various impacts of human activity on ecosystems. They will then be asked to form an opinion about human activities and their impacts. The lesson plan follows the following 4 phase structure: Activate: 6 recall questions designed to get the students either retrieving previous knowledge linked to this or prior topics. These have been designed with my students in mind - they may look different for your students! Model: Set the scene for the lesson and outline key new knowledge. Show students how to approach a question or task. Practice: Give the students opportunities to use the new knowledge provided and attempt the tasks modelled in phase 2. Review: Check students grasp of new concepts with a quick review activity. On the first page of the PowerPoint, there is a link to a Google Drive containing the same resources just in case you teach in a Google school! Please note: This lesson is the second lesson in a topic covering ecosystems. You can get the first lesson for free by clicking the link below: FREE: Lesson 1 - Introduction to Ecosystems Lesson 2 which covers food chains and webs, can be found here. Lesson 3 which teaches students about predator prey relationships can be found here.

This photosynthesis assessment and feedback lesson is designed to help you and your students. You save time by marking one piece of work for this topic. The students benefit by getting specific and detailed feedback over what they are getting right, and what they need to work on. Marking is time consuming, and often does not benefit anyone. However, with this task, students will answer a detailed task to showcase what they know. There is also a success criteria they can use as a checklist to ensure they include all the detail needed. There is then space for teacher feedback (or peer feedback if you wish!), along with space for the student to address what they missed/got incorrect. When I use this resource I will spend one lesson on completing the task, and the start of another lesson for students to address the feedback I have provided. If when you are marking, you notice a lot of students are making the same mistake, you could plan to re-teach that and help all your students to make positive progress! Included in this resource is: Double sided assessment - page 1 is the task and space for the student to answer, page 2 includes the success criteria along with space for the teacher to leave comments and the student to respond and correct any work. Keyword linking activity (and model answers for the teacher to use) Photosynthesis themed word search (with answers) I hope your students find these worksheets useful!
