Aimed at low ability students, targets level 4 Starter: differentiated starter questions Main: watch the video about a yogurt pot,thin about its journey fill in grid showing the different stages of the LCA use textbooks to support Class vote - which do they think is the most enviromentally damaging paper or plastic bags Carry out LCA of paper and plastic bags using textbooks evaluate which they think is most enviromentally damaging Plenary: question to list the stages of the LCA

aimed at a mixed ability class Starter: differentiated starter questions, with answers on following slide Main: mini debate to start, 6 statemenets rate from 1-5 on 1 being comfortable 5 being completely against. Students watch video to hear some viewpoints about the use of stem cells. students then are given one statement so they either need to argue for or against stem cell research using their knowledge from the video and from the information sheets Whole class debate Finally summarise the points on the board into two columns, one for stem cell research one against stem cell research Plenary: exam question

Aimed at low ability students. Targets of level 4. Starter task, green pen. Revision from previous topics Main – Recap types of waves, and key points from last topic, students fill in the gaps. Explain journey of the wave focusing on the wave is coming from a source and being absorbed Students stick in EM spectrum, label their spectrum as you go through and label key properties. Extension question for students if other students are slow to label Chart with uses of EM waves, to engage and show students we use these all the time, they will study these in future lessons. Discuss visible light and explain this is the only wavelength that can be seen, mention wavelengths of visible light A very annoying, yet catchy video, to try and reinforce the order of the waves. Worksheet from kerboodle physics foundation workbook P.77. Recap learning for the day and summaries the lesson. Extension: wavelength question practice (answers for worksheet and extension are available on the slides) Green pen answers, Plenary Verbal plenary questions: try and list the EM waves in order from longest to shortest without books.

Revision resource covering all specification points for biology OCR A.

Starter - retrieval questions based on P1 energy Main - -explaination of what a wave is task to sort waves into mechanical / electromagnetic Description of transverse/longitudinal Worksheet to complete, answers included Exam question plenary

Aimed at higher ability students Starter: retrieval questions based on P1 Main: Mini review of parts of the wave. Both wave period and wave speed equations shown with examples in the powerpoint. Differentiated worksheet to consolidate wave equation, starting with faded practice, followed by lots of SLOP, and finally exam questions on the wave equation. All answers are on the powerpoint Plenary: Mini white board plenary

Foundation and higher differentiated wave equation worksheets

Aimed at KS3 lesson.

P2 - energy transfer by heating Revision powerpoint for the topic, with a booklet for students to work through P2 following the kerboodle specification

Complete paper one Chemistry revision following the AQA trilogy specification. Parts for higher only are highlighted. work booklets to accompany powerpoint, which can be used in lessons or revision sessions. Questions embedded in the powerpoint with answers for students to practice and focus on key concepts My year 11s have found these benefical.

Aimed at a mixed ability year 9 class Worksheets are from TES Starter Activity Answer starter questions Main – Go through state symbols, make a note of what each means Explain the conservation of mass – need to write down the defintions Stretch: why do some reactions appear to gain/lose mass Go through steps on how to balance equations. Supporting worksheets to build up. Make sure there is an emphasis on what the ‘big’ and ‘little’ numbers mean. Do examples at each step, then get students to complete the rest Extension sheet of harder equations to balance for students flying through Plenary Plenary – make rules for balancing equations
