A set of revision resources for 4.1 - cell biology unit (new AQA GCSE scheme of work). The download includes a teacher powerpoint to talk through in lesson and also a set of pupil handouts that can either be printed out, or used as a guidance for pupils to create their own revision resources. All resources are in ppt and so are easily adapted depending on the needs and abilities of the class.

New AQA GCSE Biology scheme (2016). This lesson covers how to carry out the transect method for sampling an area as well as how to correctly analyse the data from the investigation. The lesson guides pupils into planning a valid and repeatable investigation and also includes a 20 mark exam paper in order to assess pupil progress. This lesson is complimented by L4 and L5 Quadrats method and data analysis

New AQA GCSE Biology scheme (2016). This lesson outlines feeding relationships within a community. The lesson covers key words for the ecology unit and how to use these words in context. Pupils are also shown how to build food chains and interpret the impact of changes in food webs. This lesson includes a teacher powerpoint with differentiated pupil activities.

New AQA GCSE Biology scheme (2016). This lesson looks at energy transfer along a food chain (how energy is used and then passed on to the next consumer). The lesson also details how to draw accurate pyramids of biomass in order to show the energy transfers in a food chain. This lesson includes a teacher powerpoint and differentiated pupil activities/exam practice.

This lesson looks enables pupils to explain the difference in densities for different states of matter. Pupils build on their knowledge of the arrangement of atoms in the different states to explain why solids usually have the highest densities. Pupils then go on to look at the calculation for density and are given different examples to apply their knowledge to. This resource includes a teacher powerpoint and differentiated pupil activities.

New AQA GCSE Biology scheme (2016). This lesson starts by exploring the different reasons why certain fish stocks have declined in recent years. It then goes on to explore different methods of making fishing more sustainable (including fish farms). The lesson includes a teacher powerpoint and differentiated pupil activities/exam practice.

New AQA GCSE Biology scheme (2016). This lesson outlines factors that affect food security. Pupils then go on to look at different farming techniques and the social, moral, economical and ethical implications of these. This lesson is complimented by L17 Sustainable Fishing. This resource includes a teacher powerpoint, differentiated pupil activities and exam practice.

New AQA GCSE Biology scheme (2016). This lesson covers the biotic and abiotic factors that can influence the distribution of a species. The lesson includes instructions on how to make a brine shrimp ecosystem to engage pupils in the topic, as well as differentiated exam practice to allow pupils to apply their knowledge and assess their progress.

New AQA GCSE Biology scheme (2016). A lesson on how to analyse data from a quadrat investigation. In the lesson, pupils are shown how to use results from a quadrat investigation to estimate full field coverage of plantain. There are worked examples, which build in level of difficulty as the lesson progresses. The resource also includes differentiated exam practice, to allow pupils to apply their knowledge and assess their level of understanding from the lesson. This lesson is complimented by L5 Quadrat Method lesson.

New AQA GCSE Biology scheme (2016). This lesson outlines human impact on global warming and biodiversity (as a consequence of global warming). Within the lesson, pupils are encouraged to look at and evaluate evidence on global warming and the impact that human activity has had on this. The resource includes a teacher powerpoint and differentiated pupil activities.

New AQA GCSE Biology scheme (2016). A lesson on the common adaptations of organisms that live in extreme conditions, including cold/hot and dry climates. This lesson also promotes investigative skills and data analysis through an investigation on the effect of fur on heat loss. Include a teacher powerpoint and differentiated pupil activities.

New AQA GCSE Biology scheme (2016). This lesson covers the common adaptations of predators and prey (including mimicry and warning adaptations). The lesson includes differentiated exam practice so that pupils can check their understanding.

New AQA GCSE Biology scheme (2016). This lesson outlines the basic principles of decay and the conditions required to speed up decay. The lesson progresses to how decay can be used as compost and to generate biogas. This lesson includes a teacher powerpoint and differentiated pupil activities.

New AQA GCSE Biology scheme (2016). A lesson on the processes, compounds and organisms involved in the carbon cycle. This lesson uses a lot of active learning strategies in order to cement pupil learning. The lesson also outlines the basic process involved in the water cycle. This resource includes a teacher powerpoint, differentiated pupil activities and exam practice.
