An infographic made for Year 11 Separate Biology students (Edexcel HT Spec). My students were struggling to remember the differences and processes involved in protein synthesis, so I made this for them. It quite a simplified version of events but includes all the key terms in a engaging and memorable format. I gave the students a copy of this and asked them to create 4 and 6 mark questions based on the content, they then peer assessed the responses. Hope you enjoy!

A simple worksheet activity for students to complete in groups or pairs. The task is for students to list healthy and unhealthy behaviours and lifestyle choices as task 1. Task 2 asks them to define and give examples of communicable and non communicable diseases. Task 3 asks students to list diseases and illnesses that are caused by protists, fungi, bacteria and viruses. Some examples and answers given for task 1 and 2. I used this at the end of my teaching of 'organisation' 4.2 in AQA biology new spec 2016+
