Edexcel Biology GCSE 2016: This is the whole of topic one 'overarching concepts in biology' this is a module that features in both paper one and paper two.
Save yourself 25-30 hours of work! Teaching, Testing, Tracking all in this one purchase.
**lesson 11 is available on my free resources
The new Edexcel GCSE Biology paper comprises of two assessment papers, paper 1 and 2. Topic one 'Over arching concept in biology' is included as a prerequisite in both papers 1 and 2. This is ideal for year 9 and 10 to lay the foundation of biological knowledge.
The 15 lessons included in the purchase are highly differentiated to cover all but the lowest SEN sets as well as pushing the higher attaining students via the purple high level questions. The Scheme of Work is build around hinge point question which lead to different activities so each student will receive a bespoke learning experience over the course of Topic One. Included in to support the 15 lessons is a assessment pack, this includes higher and foundation end of topic 60 mark exams, exit ticket tracker, tracking sheets, short answer test and key knowledge organisers. Whether purchasing to reduce your workload and improve the standard of lesson or looking at investing in an affordable high quality scheme for your department this set of lessons is a must have for any aspiring or currently outstanding teachers.
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.
Enzymes higher level lesson based around nutrition (written by Nutrition major)
The lesson start with a key word match up to overcome difficulties in language. This is followed by a video with questions to provide an active watch for the students.
The lesson assesses learning via a hinge point question and the students move on to attempt a differentiated task. The task looks at various illnesses induced by enzyme deficiency, there are corresponding question to assess the understanding.
The lesson concludes with an exit ticket.
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. This rolls into a true or false hinge point question to direct learning via differentiated association squares. The learners solidify their understanding with a Cloze activity before finishing with an exit ticket.
The lesson start by looking at variety in plants, this case study in the venus fly trap.
There is then a hinge point question to decide the starting point for the SOLO taxonomy task; this starts with basic key word match up and finishes with adaptations of cacti and stomata. This includes both the ppt and the SOLO work sheet.
The lesson is specific the new Edexcel GCSE and part of topic 5.
The lesson starts by engaging the students in what it means to be healthy before to learning outcomes are discussed. The lesson moves to look at the WHO definition of help with memory trigger pictures to help students make associations. After this a graph is interpreted that helps establish the correlation between wealth and health, there are questions to guide thinking and HOTS questions to stretch able students.
Definitions of communicable and non-communicable disease are reviewed with students before a work sheet and a further HOTS questions stretch learning and demonstrate understanding the lesson concludes with an exam question and model answer.
The lesson is specific the new Edexcel GCSE and part of topic 5 (lesson 2).
The lesson starts with a gcse biology question looking at the prevalence of TB and HIV.
The learning outcomes are then reviewed before the students attempt an independent research task looking at five communicable diseases and answering questions that lead to an understanding of the learning outcome.
Their understanding is assessed by matching question and answer card sort, included were in the download, there is a higher order question two push the top end of students. The lesson concludes with a 10 mark exam question which students record in an exit ticket tracker and rank their learning outcomes.
There is a model answer to the ten mark exam question included to ensure consistency for the students.
This a core concept for Edexcel 9-1 GCSE physics. This lesson is aimed at year 8-9 however could be made course specific.
The lesson starts be acting on any feedback from the previous lesson before establishing the learning outcomes for the lesson. The teacher demonstrate the limit of proportionality with the spring and masses, there is space on the ppt for the results to be recorded and a graph drawn showing the elastic limit. students then rank their confidence before selecting a differentiated gold or silver task. The lesson concludes with an exit ticket.
Bundle includes Edexcel 9-1 - topic 5.
This is a 10 lesson bundle of Edexcel 9-1 topic 5 Health and Disease lessons. Tracking, differentiation, assessment and AFL are build into the lessons.
Lesson 0 - entry test
Lesson 1 - health
Lesson 2 - communicable disease
Lesson 3 - spread and prevention of disease
Lesson 4a - sexuallty transmitted disease
Lesson 4b - chemical and physical barriers
Lesson 5 - immune response
Lesson 6 - antibiotics
Lesson 7 - non-communicable disease
Lesson 8 - obesity and BMI
Lesson 9 - assessment and revision
These are 'plug and play' lessons designed for ease of application and good to outstanding lessons. I am very pleased with this series of lessons as it has inspired a difficult year 10 cohort and increased motivation in science.
The lesson starts by recapping what a force diagram is before looking at examples of force diagrams. There is the a active watch video with HOTS questions to answer. The understanding is assessed via a mini-whiteboard identification of forces. The lesson further assesses understanding with a hinge question an this leads a differentiated activity on force diagrams. The lesson concludes with an exit ticket.
The lesson start by looking at the Apollo 8 rocket taking off and introduces the huge unbalanced forces at play. The teacher then lead with a series of images of scuba divers an gives an opportunity to question the class. The lesson builds to start including numbers so the student can calculate the resultant force before the students construct meaning using a simple worksheet on force diagrams. The lesson concludes with a detailed exit ticket.
This is the Learning Outcome sheet for GCSE Biology, Edexcel Topic 5 - Health and disease. This includes of the combined science biology spec points for topic 5, exit ticket tracker, RAG by learning outcome and entry and exit test tracker.
**This resource is not a stand alone resources, to be bought with my other Topic 5 resources.

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.

Lesson 1: Health and disease - defines WHO definition of health.
Lesson 2: Communicable disease- what spreading disease is.
Lesson 3: Spread of disease - reviews the four ways most diseases are spread.
Lesson 4: STI - what STIs are and how they are prevented.
The lesson is of vital importance to young adults as it make students aware of the risk of unprotected sex.
The do it now activity is a image to inspire disgust and conversation around the topic. There is a short video clip and some active watch questions to inspire conversation. The lesson them moves to looking a facts of 7 STIs and ranking them in an arrowhead 7. There is a brief look on the prevention of the contraction of the disease and then students attempt a exam style HSW worksheet; there is an extension built into the worksheet.
The lesson starts by assessing baseline knowledge by reviewing the meaning of energy. There is then a card sort which involves associating the energy with pictures to act as a memory prompt.
There is a short video to push the students to identify forces and reviewing their knowledge. The lesson has an AFL task embedded in it to direct learning, this leads to 3 different task, two on the attached KO and one Cloze activity. The lesson concludes with an exit ticket.
