Suitable for all year groups but I use this with year 7s as a core lesson in teaching students how to 'work scientifically'. There are 2 lessons in this pack. Both lessons come complete with mini-pleanaries, 1 worksheet each lesson and a learning tracker for students to show their progress on the learning objectives. This fits in very nicely with the Oxford Activate SOW but can be used with an SOW as it is a very important topic for students to understand early on in secondary school or even late primary. I spend a lot of time on making my lessons and only upload the best to TES premium so I hope you find these useful, leave me feedback/stars and see my other upload.

A lesson plan with presentation slides and worksheets for new KS3 Science Curriculum. This lesson covers: -What is variation -Continuous and discontinuous variation -Species -Hybrids Probably works best with Google Presentations: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1oGkWjowadxhIA5KsaPZHlAc0i2D4EjYYxahzkxY61fY/edit?usp=sharing

By the end of this lesson students should be able to recall the structures of plant and animal cells, and describe how mineral salts are taken into roots by active transport.

By the end of this lesson students should be able to explain the role of a plant cell, and describe the difference between plant and animal cells. Students are to copy all blue text. Please check slide notes for any additional information.

By the end of this lesson students should be able to describe the factors that can slow down the rate of photosynthesis, and analyse data on these factors. Please read slide notes for any extra information. (On all my PowerPoints I put text that should be copied in blue).

It surprises me how many KS4 students still need to be taught how to draw a graph. An essential scientific and mathematics skill forgotten by most science teachers due to the content driven curriculum. This resource is very 'How Science Works' This can be used as a poster in the centre of student examples, displaying perfect graph work or even examples of what not to do. Or this can be used as a guide to stick in their science books.

Please read notes on slides for more information.

A simple worksheet I made to help my BTEC class answer the assignment questions for P5. Asks about the effect of different concentrations on rates of reaction, as well as the possible effects of temperature, catalysts and particle size. Hope this is useful.

Starter: Videos on farming AfL: Card Sort (Print Slide 4) Main: Answers + Eutrophication Develop: Discussion / Debate Plenary: Hot Seat Other Tags: Intensive, Organic, Free Range, Conventional, Decay, Decomposition, Lesson Plan.

A double lesson for KS3 pupils to start the Activate 2 Energy Unit. Guides students to learn about the energy we get from food and how quickly we use that energy through various activities. First LO covered by: Video, Class discussion, Higher or lower game LO2: Class discussion with answers + Graph drawing (working scientifically) LO3: Example calculation + 5 further calculations of energy consumed vs energy used. (numeracy skills) This lesson is expected to take between 90-120 minutes. No printed resources needed.

The first lesson in the Reproduction Unit for Y7. This lesson contains: QFL, LOs and Starter Group work for main activity (Sharing prior knowledge) Categorising changes for boys and girls activity 5 Question Test / Review of learning Exit Cards All activities include answers.

Similar to Badger tasks, this task has been created with literacy and scientific vocabulary in mind. You can download the files as an editable Powerpoint or a flat Printable PDF. The student file consists of a front page asking students to explain the workings of the human body from organelles up to the full organism. Success criteria is detailed within an 'IDEAL' grid, and keywords are given. After 2 pages there is an area for teachers to give feedback and students to respond. I have also written up a 4 page 'IDEAL' answer for the task which can be used as a guide or read out to the class from time to time. I will be making many more of these and uploading them on to TES throughout the year so please look out for them. Key-search-words: human body, organs, organism, organ systems, organelles, organisation, specialised cells, quality of written communication, essay.

Made for 2 x 45min. lessons. Lots of activities for students to practice and share their understanding. The last 5 slides are printable to be used as worksheets for the 2 lessons. Print double-sided, 2-per-page. Please leave a review, it really helps out :) Keywords: Glucose, Hormones, Regulation, Homeostasis, Type 1, Type 2, Revision.

This took me a long time to make. Hopefully its all right and you guys find it useful. Sorry I couldn't fit in combustion of fossil fuels. You can get the kids to draw an additional arrow for that in their books. :)

This SOW follows very closely with the Oxford Activate KS3 SOW. In this SOW you will find the following lessons: 1. Levels of Organisation 2. Breathing VS Respiration 3. Gas Exchange (from TES) 4. The Skeletal System 5. Joints 6. Muscles All slideshows can be downloaded individually as PowerPoint files or edited in Google Slides if saved as your own copy. Keywords: Cell, Tissue, Organ, Organ System, Organism, Repiratory System, Muscular System, Antagonistic Pairs, Tendons, Cartilage, Ligaments, Alveoli.
