This was a CPD session on the importance of modelling for the students. The presentation focuses on a case study that I ran over three lessons using model answers rather than personalised feedback. The CPD session also includes the evidence for it.

This is a revision resource that encourages independence and learning of key outcomes. This would take a couple of lessons to complete as there are multiple tasks to improve understanding.

Practical lesson that covers filtration.

The lesson start by engaging the students with a guess the LQ activity. The students then are guided through producing a mind-map of the spread and prevention of the exam spec diseases before they attempt a 6 mark question. As a class they review the mark scheme self assess their own work and redraft to perfect there answer.

The lessons starts by a quick review of the factors that affect enzyme activity before a exam style questions on enzymes. This is not a stand alone resource and best used with the revision collection.

The lesson looks at endangered species and moves to discuss deforestation. Students then have to design their own ecosystem before there understanding is demonstrated with work sheet. The lesson concludes with an exam question.

On the Wasted Years report recommendations this is the third lesson in a scheme of work that looks at preparing Year 6 students for secondary science. It is written by a secondary science teacher for the cross phase development program being run 2016-17. The spec is based on the interim assessment framework (IAF). The lesson focuses on an experiment to test the solubility of sugar and salt vs the amount of stirs it takes to dissolve. There intended outcomes of this lesson are for students to be able to use lab balances, record data and have some understanding that a substance may dissolve.

The lesson is a well constructed and differentiated lesson intended for the new Edexcel 9-1 GCSE. The lesson starts with a comparison between apes, humans and pre-humans before introducing the idea of fossilisation. There are then a couple of videos showing great apes acting in a human fashion. Students then complete a research task making a time line of human evolution. Learning is assessed before there are two differentiated worksheets to best cater for the level of need. The lesson concludes with a GCSE exam question.

The lesson starts by reviewing the WHO concerns on antibiotic resistance before looking at how it works. After students see this they prepare a storyboard on antibiotic resistance. Students then attempt an outcome differentiated worksheet before a 3 mark exam question and review of that to end the lesson.

Lesson 5 look at the concept of relative motion, it is a lesson aimed for students who are looking to study GCSE Edexcel. The lesson starts with a review of previous learning via the RAGing of topics over the last 4 lessons. It then moves on to look at a train crash (not graphic or upsetting) an gets the students to think about what the implication of this are. The lesson swiftly moves to some animations of relative motion to encourage the students to gain an understanding via a think, pair, share activity. There is then a hinge question to direct learning and assess understanding this leads into a differentiated task either gold, silver or bronze, there is included a purple extension. Student have the opportunity to demonstrate their understanding with a differentiated challenge question the lesson concludes with an exit ticket.

The lesson requires microscopes and slides, it focuses on identify key organelles in prokaryote cells. There is a differentiated activity to help the students build ideas, this focuses on the dangers as well as key organelles in bacteria. This is followed by a new spec exam question. There is an exit ticket at the end.

The resource includes the learning outcomes with RAG code for confidence and an exit ticket tracker for recording the exit ticket scores at the end of the lesson. There are two knowledge organisers both with differentiated questions on the back.

This resource is the learning outcome sheet to CB4 - from the new Edexcel GCSE spec. This is not a stand alone resource but an essential part if purchasing a series of lessons.

The lesson starts by matching the keywords to the images. The lesson then moves to review the examples of the evolution of giraffes linking each stage to the exam specification. The students then rate their confidence and move on to differentiated storyboard tasks looking at the evolution of the woolly mammoth. The lesson finishes with a 6 mark question with a mark scheme so the students can self-assess their answers.

This knowledge organiser makes and ideal in lesson help sheet or a homework revision activity. On the reverse are standard and higher progress question to ensure the learning outcomes have been achieved.

Core practical for Biology topic one

More lessons in the series are available on my premium resources - ScienceMastery The lesson starts with a series of questions to illicit prior understanding of the students. There is then an explanation of gravity and the calculations extensively modelled. After that the students get an opportunity to select from a series of tasks and opt to work, this is outcome differentiated via gold, silver, bronze tasks. The students then complete a hinge point question (AFL) that directs them to 1 of 3 differentiated tasks, there is a purple (high order thinking) task available for the students to move onto once their tasks are completed. The lesson concludes with an exit ticket and a rag of LO.

The lesson starts by identifying the key word ... cavity. The students then get to investigate how best to keep a coffee warm, this is then summarised by a worksheet. The Lesson concluded with an exam question specific to Edexcel 9-1. This lesson has been designed to start getting motivation back into a difficult year 10 class. It is one that I did not think was good enough to list on TES premium however it is not a bad lesson.
