Questions and answers based on the AQA textbooks. I created these resources for my Triple class as a means of revision, a tool for them to use with parents and siblings to test their knowledge (especially for those families who don’t have a scientific background/ have not studied GCSE themselves). Ways this resource can be used: Printed out with all the content for students to learn. Students can test themselves or each other by folding the page down the middle. Edited so most of the answers are blanked out, this way students can use the textbook and their workbooks to answer the questions. Used as part of retrieval practice or starters in lessons. Questions can be set as homework for students, followed by a short quiz at the start of lesson. (There is a lot of information on these sheets. May need to be edited according to the classes you teach). *If you notice any spelling errors, please let me know!
