A-Level lesson format: I teach in more of a lecture style compared to GCSE. In the majority of my A-level lessons the beginning portion of the lesson is mainly teacher-led, where students are expected to take notes onto a handout/in their books. This is then mixed in with student-led activities, as well as questions and exam prep.
You will find some of my slides have blank spaces for you to add more detail/descriptions/explanations. If you look at the ‘Notes’ section underneath each of these slides, you will find additional content which you can add in as you teach!
To begin this lesson on cancer, students will review their knowledge of cell processes. They should be able to describe mitosis, the prophase, and cytokinesis in detail.
For a quick recap on mitosis students will watch a short video, then use their mini whiteboards to name cell cycles and their roles based the images on the following slides!
Students will then learn to calculate miotic index (MI). The following slide features an exam-style chart for them to practice calculating MI values.
They will then learn to calculate the time a cell spends in each stage and complete example calculations by showing all of their working on their mini whiteboards. Answers for self-assessment are on the following slide.
Using their knowledge on MI and cell stage time students will begin to think about cancer. They should make note of the definitions of key words before moving on.
Students will then watch a short video on the cancer genome project and answer four questions in their books while watching. Answers are provided for self-assessment.
The cell cycle is controlled at three checkpoints, at which the cell can continue or stop production. Students should make clear note in their books before moving on to discuss how these checkpoints are relevant to cancer. The following slides define proto-oncogenes, oncogenes, and mutated tumour suppressor genes, so students should be able to explain how mutations cause cancer.
Students are then taught how cancer treatment works in the cell cycle. The following slide considers the cellular side-effects of treating cancer.
To consolidate students will practise an exam-style fill in the blank task. Answers are on the following slide for self-assessment.
The plenary task is for students to draft a WhatsApp message to a friend explaining what they have learned about cancer in this lesson.

This lesson on co-transport and absorption of glucose in the ileum begins with a starter discussion which asks students to compare and contrast transport and diffusion. They are also asked to discuss the importance of transport rather than diffusion in regard to reabsorption in the kidneys.
The first task is a microscope activity for students to work in partner pairs and investigate adaptations of the epithelial cells of the ileum. Students will set up their light microscope to examine prepared slides and answer some questions. Answer samples are in the notes below the slides.
The following slides define villi and microvilli for students to note in their books. There is a brief explanation of the relationship between increased surface area and space for carrier proteins.
Students are then introduced to the role of diffusion in absorption and should take clear notes regarding facilitated diffusion. They should use the diagram on the slide to discuss why glucose concentration differs between epithelial and ileum cells. Relying on diffusion will only result in the concentrations either side of the intestinal epithelium becoming equal. Students should discuss why this is a problem, and how it might be overcome.
The next slide is a complete diagram explaining co-transport of amino acids or glucose molecules. Students should take notes in their books because the next task is to complete a cartoon of this process and summarise the main steps.
Students are then asked to ‘think > pair > share’ about the co-transport process and decide whether it is a direct or indirect form of active transport. They should use the details on the slide to inform their discussion.
The final task is an exam-style question, with a mark scheme on the following slide for students to self-assess and consolidate their learning from this lesson.
The plenary task is to either; summarise the lesson in three sentences, or complete definitions for five key-terms from the lesson.

This lesson on diffusion begins with a starter discussion to remind students of the functions of the proteins in the cell membrane and the ‘fluid-mosaic’ model.
Students will then ‘think > pair > share’ to discuss what sorts of substances cells import/export across the cell membrane. They should also examine why the cells import/export these substances. Answers are on the slide for self-assessment.
Diffusion is then laid out in two diagrams to explain the passive nature of diffusion. Students should use these diagrams to inform the next ‘think>pair>share’ and discuss with a partner what factors might affect the rate of diffusion.
Students are then introduced to facilitated diffusion, and the proteins required. They should take detailed notes on the features and functions of channel proteins and carrier proteins.
Another form of facilitated diffusion is then introduced, in which the carrier protein picks up molecules of a matching shape, rather than changing its own shape.
To quick check student understanding, they are asked three questions to answer in their books regarding the two forms of facilitated diffusion in comparison to simple diffusion, answers are provided on the next slide for self-assessment.
Students will then complete an exam-style question, as always, a marking scheme is available for self-assessment.

This lesson on humoral immunity & antibodies begins with a starter discussion to get students to describe the role of cytotoxic t-cells, and the role of lysosomes during phagocytosis. They should also discuss the fate of cloned t-cells during a cell-mediated immune response.
Humoral immunity is defined first, and students are asked to consider why the term humoral is used. Then, students will fill in gaps on their worksheet as humoral immunity is further explained. There are extra notes below the slide, and the answers will appear for self-assessment.
The next slide sets out a diagram of humoral immunity, then students are asked to arrange the process by sequencing sentences, then self-assess.
In pairs, students will then be given information on either plasma cells or memory cells and teach each other about the cell they’ve been assigned. Each student should complete descriptions of both types in their books.
Students are then asked to consider why lymphocytes don not attack their own cells and taught the significance of lymphocytes development in the foetus.
The next task is to sort information cards into categories; cell-mediated, humoral, or both. They can self-assess this task to the following slide.
Students are then introduced to the structure of antibodies. They will watch a video, and answer seven questions, including a diagram. They can self-assess to the slide before considering how antibodies lead to the destruction pathogens. Students are also asked to consider why it is important that antibodies have two antigen binding sites.
The plenary is to spend a full minute discussing with a partner what they have learned from this lesson.

This lesson begins with an introduction to proteins, the importance of such molecules in the human body as well as the general structural formula of an amino acid.
Students are then shown the structural formula of two amino acids - glycine and alanine - and are asked to used their mini whiteboards to show how a condensation reaction could occur between the two molecules to form a peptide bond. There work can then be checked against the answer provided on the PowerPoint.
Over the course of the next few slides, you can run through the main principles of the formation of a protein from the primary -> secondary -> tertiary -> quaternary structure. As students listen to the main principles, they can write these down onto their ‘Protein Summary Sheet’ - provided.
Students will then be given a worksheet which shows an image/description of a protein as one of the four levels of protein formation, students have to identify which level it is at (primary, secondary, tertiary, quaternary). Once complete, students can self-assess their work using the answers provided on the PowerPoint.
Students will now be introduced to the Biuret test for proteins, which they will need to be able to recite as well as give details of a positve/negative result.
The last activity is a past-paper question to test students knowledge of what has been learned this lesson, which can be self-assessed using the mark scheme provided.

This lesson in exchange systems begins by asking students to think of example of exchange systems and the substances which would need to be exchanged. The next slide demonstrates the differences in exchange process for single and multicellular organisms. Notes are available under the slide for discussion.
Using the pictures on the slides, students will then identify some examples of substances that need to be interchanged between a living organism and its environment. Those images are then ordered specifically on the next slide to demonstrate SA and body size. If multicellular organisms relied on diffusion, they would die, so they have evolved in other ways!
Students should identify these evolved features in their next task. They will fill a table out to explain how each feature functions to help organisms exchange the substances they need. They should be able to identify why multicellular organisms need specialised exchange surfaces or systems.
The next slides explain Fick’s Law and define important terms before asking students to calculate the surface area of cells. Answers for self-assessment are on the following slide.
Students will then complete lab task CP8 to engage with the effect of SA:V ratio on the rate of diffusion. Materials and method are explained on the slides.
Exam-style summary questions are included to consolidate the lab task with lecture notes, and answers for self-assessment are on the following slide.
As a plenary, students will spend 60 seconds speaking with the person next to them about what they learned from the lesson over all.

This lesson begins by reminding students of the four general things that need to be exchanged between an organism and their environment and the three factors which may affect the rate of diffusion. This discussion leads into the first few slides which explain how an organism like an amoeba gets the substances it needs.
A worksheet is included for this lesson for students to complete as they take notes throughout.
An amoeba is used as an example of a unicellular organism, which is then compared to insects. The following slides explain the basic form and function of insects, then the process by which they exchange water and O2.
Students should take thorough notes on the spiracle, trachea and tracheoles in their books. The slides in this lesson are lecture based and very detailed, students will want to be sure they have a good understanding of the three ways that respiratory gasses move in and out of the tracheal system. The slides explain that gasses move along a diffusion gradient, through mass transport, and as the tracheoles fill with water.
A quick check of exam-style questions and mark scheme follows to help students assess their learning.
The plenary task is a true or false activity!
