Waves and Electricity - 13 lessons and end of topic assessment.
Waves and Electricity is a scheme of work for year 8-9, it is engineered from the Edexcel 2016 GCSE therefore the spec points a prerequisites for start the GCSE. Lessons are highly differentiated and aimed for high ability to low ability. Much AFL is embedded with in the scheme, this includes hinge questions, short answer assessment an redraft for success.
There is a sample of the work on the free downloads. type ' lesson 8 frequency calculations'
Admin: this includes an exit ticket tracker, learning outcomes, and knowledge organiser.
Lesson 0 - is an entry test to establish what is already understood by the students.
Speed distance time: Applied worksheets
Here are 4 differentiated worksheets on speed distance time.
Bronze worksheet: very basic unit and number manipulation in a scaffold-ed table.
Silver worksheet: harder question than bronze yet still within a table structure.
Gold worksheet: harder questions than silver with a more open style.
Purple worksheet: Exam style open ended questions
Forces and Energy Learning Outcomes and Knowledge organiser
This resource is not a stand alone resource rather should be purchased with any of The 'Forces and Energy' resources by razeitlin.
The year 7 and year 8 learning outcome sheets feature all learning outcomes for the 6.5 week term. Aligned with the learning outcomes is space to record exit ticket scores, these scores are used to provide formative feedback to both the pupils and the teacher and reduce the need to extensive marking as the exit tickets are diagnostic of understanding.
Next to the Exit ticket score is place for a RAGing of learning, this allows the students to customise their revision and feedback. The colour of the learning outcome related to the colour on the knowledge organiser, this allows student to take accountability for their own learning and progress as the knowledge organiser aims to close the feedback loop.
The Knowledge organiser has questions on the reverse of it, again colour coded to the learning outcomes to make progress accessible.
Forces and Energy - Lesson 4 - speed, distance, time. Applied
The lesson start with a puzzle of lateral thinking for the students. It then goes on to model more complex SDT problems than lesson 3 involving unit conversions. As the students start to understand they move on to the bronze, silver, gold, purple activities with in the 20 minutes. The learning is then demonstrated by calculating their own Speed before the lesson concludes with a true or false exit ticket.
Alleles - Edexcel 9-1 GCSE Biology: Topic 3, lesson 4 Alleles
Topic three lesson four focuses on Alleles. The lesson starts with a review of previous learning. The lesson moves onto an independent research task to help embed meta-cognitive regulation, this is the discussed via teacher and slides to ensure pupils have understood. Understanding is assessed via a hinge point question and a bronze (mini lesson), silver (structured task) or gold task (structured open) is allocated to evidence differentiation and give the students the most appropriate task. students then get to see and exam question which is modelled on the board before the lesson concludes with an exit ticket.
Eukaryote organelles
The lesson requires a print out of some of the slides to enable the students to gain the information in a engaging and discovery led way. The students develop their ideas with a differentiated activity before attempting the same exam question to demonstrate their knowledge. There is an exit ticket at the end.
The lesson embeds high quality student led learning and matches the learners' needs via differentiated activities.
Prokaryote vs Eukaryotes
Overarching concepts in biology.
The lesson requires microscopes and slides, it focuses on identify the difference between prokaryotes and Eukaryotes. The AFL component is a 10 mark hinge question this lead to a differentiated outcome depending on the score. There is an exit ticket at the end.
Lesson allows student to be independent but at the same time provides structure and fits the students needs.
Meiosis - Edexcel 9-1 GCSE Biology: Topic 3, lesson 3 Meiosis
Topic three lesson three focuses on Meiosis . The lesson starts with an key word to definition starter. The lesson moves onto a open discussion and a video. Understanding is assessed via a hinge point question and a bronze (cloze), silver (cloze) or gold task (structured open) is allocated to evidence differentiation and give the students the most appropriate task. The lesson gives the students the opportunity to demonstrate their knowledge with a step by step labelled diagram before the lesson concludes with an exit ticket.

Enzymes - amylase and experiment
The lesson starts by getting student to make the link between amylase and sugar. Three Key definitions are reviewed before a table and colour scale is given out. The students then experiment with amylase, the method made clear. They then demonstrate their understanding with a graph before reviewing learning with and exit ticket.
Cell specialism: sperm, egg and cilliated epithelial
The lesson starts with a presentation focus to ensure the students show pride in their work. It then moves in to introduce the main cells of the lesson: cilliated epithelial, sperm and egg. After a brief introduction to these there is a ten minute Kagan activity where students can gather information about the cell before sharing with their group.
