I am a biology teacher who has many years’ experience working in the social care sector including managing care homes and home care services. I have been teaching health and social care and science since 2015, mostly to level 3 students. I believe learning is an active process helped by visualization of the processes. I create visual resources for both health and social care and science including BTEC and Cambridge Technicals in health and social care, BTEC applied science and GCSE biology.

BTEC health and social care anatomy and physiology disorders revision game

(0)
Disorders revision game for BTEC health and social care unit 3: anatomy and physiology The anatomy and physiology unit includes nearly 40 disorders for the students to learn. The exam will cover a number of these, but it is anybody’s guess which ones will turn up. This revision game offers more than one way to help students commit all these disorder to memory in a fun way. The disorder cards can be played as a board game which includes elements of competition and luck to make learning fun or they can be used individually by students to learn the disorders. The game includes 39 disorder cards with information about the disorder on one side and just the name on the other. The board game includes the traditional start and finish squares and different requirements for landing on particular squares. Some squares are gray and can just be landed on without any need to answer a question. Other squares allow the student to roll the die again so as to advance further along the board. The other squares require the student to state specific facts about the disorder on the next card in the pile. If they do not get the answer correct, they must stay on the square they are on and not advance. The squares may ask for the category of the disorder which means they must identify the body system it is a disorder of, or whether it is a genetic or congenital disorder or a dysfunction of homeostasis. Other squares require an overview of what the disorder is and other squares ask for symptoms of the disorder. Some squares require all three aspects of the disorder to be identified by the student. Students can use the disorder cards for individual revision by laying down 9 of the cards face down in three rows of three. They must start at the top right and state information about the disorder. If correct they can keep the card face up, if incorrect they must turn it over again. Students cannot revisit this disorder until they have gone through all of the cards. How long will it take to learn all 9 of the cards? To make it easier, students can learn different aspects of the disorders at a time such as category, overview or symptoms. If you would like more revision games for this unit, why not try the anatomy and physiology revision game bundle which includes different games for each of the different topics for this unit.

Homeostasis bingo for BTEC health and social care unit 3: anatomy and physiology Bingo is a firm favourite of students and is ideal for topics which include a lot of key terms to learn like homeostasis. For this game, students must understand the definition for a key term before they can decide whether they have that word on their bingo card or not. The 3x3 bingo cards cover 20 key terms between them and there are 30 bingo cards in total giving the option of having one bingo card per student. Alternatively, students can play in groups so they can discuss the answers to the clues and decide whether they have that key term on their card. To add challenge, some students could have more than one card to monitor. In order to succeed at this game, students need to solve all the clues given. Students can play for a line and then a full house to ensure the maximum number of key terms are covered during the game. This resource consists of a PDF document containing the clues to the key terms with a check box to tick them off when you have given the clue and 30 individual bingo cards organized two to a page. Bingo is an ideal revision game and can be played more than once to revisit the topic after several weeks.

I have also included a self-test version where students can fill in a page then click the link at the bottom of the page to check the answer. Research has proven that students learn best when notes are written in their own words. This is partly because students have to think more clearly about the topic when they have to put it into words which they would not do if they copy from a PowerPoint. It is also because they are more likely to understand it later if it is in their own words. This notebook encourages students to write their own notes whilst guiding them on what to write the notes about. It is designed to be used alongside other learning activities about the topic. It can also be used as a revision aid where students can try to complete the pages from memory – the self-test version is ideal for this purpose.
