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.

This 6-page illustrated notebook on the lymphatic and immune systems is available in both printable and editable PDF to allow for choice and comes with a completed version.
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 whichthey 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.
Biology is a subject that benefits from a good imagination in order to visualise the structures and processes involved. The high quality illustrations used in this notebook enable students to develop good visualisations to help them learn.
