This is the free version of an assessment on Statins for KS4 students who are studying medicine, drugs, diet, cholesterol, treating high cholesterol, and evaluation skills. I have also produced a full resource pack available to purchase from TES at https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/use-of-statins-quality-mark-assessment-full-resource-pack-11606643 This FULL resource pack comes with several parts; 1. Word document printout of the task for the students to stick in their books. 2. Word document printout with a level ladder on so that the students can self/peer assess the work. 3. Word document containing writing frames to help students to draft out their answer, this could be particularly useful for students who struggle to get started on tasks, or those with issues with literacy. 4. Word document with the mark scheme and teachers notes. 5. Excel spreadsheet that can be used to automatically generate extended written feedback including improvement strategies for the teacher to give the students. A guide on how to use this resource can be freely accessed at https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/the-automarker-11191496 This is based on an old AQA Biology Exam Paper. This task is good for training students to answer long questions i.e. 6 mark questions at GCSE. This task is suitable for students at Grade E-A*, however I have removed these grades so that you can use the old or new grading system.

These are question cards on smoking, alcohol and drugs and include questions on the substances in cigarettes, short and long term effects of drugs, addiction, withdrawal, smoking related diseases, laws, carcinogens, smokers cough, cilia, statistics, medicinal drugs, recreational drugs, stimulants, depressants and hallucinogens. These are made to go with the Science Revision Board Game I made which I use with KS3 and KS4 students to revise for their end of unit tests or exams. The board game and some sample question cards are freely available at https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/science-revision-board-game-free-version-11445205 If the game board isn’t quite how you’d like it, or if you want your own question cards you could download my ‘Make Your Own Revision Board Game Resource Pack’ which can be purchased at https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/make-your-own-revision-board-game-resource-pack-11445322 For the teacher, this is quick and easy revision activity that requires a one-time set up and then it can be used time and time again! Very little effort is required by you and the students can happily spend all lesson playing the game (if you let them) leaving you free to do what you fancy! My students love it and I get chance to sit down with the students who need extra help, or catch up on a bit of marking. To get started: • Print the board game on white A3 paper. • Print the question cards on blue paper/card, cut them up and pop them in little bags. • Print the hazard cards on yellow paper/card, cut them up and pop them in little bags. • Laminate the board game (optional but makes the game last longer) • Get a little stash of counters or items that could be used as the player pieces e.g. coloured paper circles, novelty rubbers, little model etc • Get some dice. For a class of 30 I’ve found that 6 groups of 5 work quite well, therefore you’d need 6 game boards and 6 packs of cards. For each unit taught I’ve made my own quiz cards so the students can test themselves on the unit content, I have quite a few different units which I am in the processing of uploading to TES now. Keep your eyes peeled for the bundles I am putting together.

For a class of 30 I’ve found that 6 groups of 5 work quite well, therefore you’d need 6 game boards and 6 packs of cards. How to play: This game is suitable for 2-6 players, you need one di and each player needs a counter (coloured tokens or paper circles will do). • The players put their counter on the start square, take turns to roll the dice and move across the game board. • The aim of the game is to be first to get to the end of the board. • If the players land on a YELLOW square they should pick up a yellow hazard card. • If the players land on a BLUE square the person to their left should pick up a blue question card and ask the player the question on the card, if the player gets it right they can move two spaces forward, if they get it wrong they stay where they are. The question cards have the correct answer either shown at the bottom or highlighted in bold. These are the rules my students came up with but feel free to alter them to suit your needs. For each unit taught I’ve made my own quiz cards so the students can test themselves on the unit content, I have quite a few different units which I am in the processing of uploading to TES now.

This is a resource pack with a range of level ladders for marking practical investigations. Each word document contains a slightly different arrangement of assessment points so hopefully you will be able to pick the most suitable for your investigation. See the descriptions below... 1. This assesses all sections of a practical investigation including method writing, identifying variables, plotting graphs, writing conclusions and evaluations. 2. This assesses just method writing and is set out in a similar style to KS4 coursework method writing mark schemes such as ISA’s. 3. This assesses method writing and identification of variables. 4. This assesses method writing, identification of variables, and graph plotting (most appropriate for line graphs rather than bar). 5. This assesses graph plotting, writing conclusions and evaluations. NEW RESOURCE ADDED! 6. This is a level ladder for method writing, and gives the students a percentage of how 'AWESOME' their method is. I made this as schools are still wrapping their heads around the new GCSE levels and the consequent impact on KS3 levels.
