CB6 - literacy intervention

We all know that a big problem for low confidence lower ability students are their levels of literacy. This is my attempt to close the gap on the literacy deficit of some of our student. This activity comprise of 3 different task based around the key language of CB6. The first activity is dual coding where students draw images of the key words. The next is a match up activity and the final is an MCQ task. Really interested to hear your thoughts.

With the time constraints we have left here is CB6 in two lessons. This does not cover the higher content but will ensure the basics are understood. I have included a more detailed plant cell adaptations lesson and a literacy intervention I am trialing with some success.
