Average Rating4.66
(based on 402 reviews)

I have been teaching Biology for 20 years and I have struggled to find concise and engaging resources for teaching Biology, which is why I have set about creating my own. I hope that my resources are enjoyed by your pupils and of course support their learning of such an interesting and great subject.

GCSE Biology: Knowledge Organiser on Gas Exchange and Breathing Topic

GCSE Biology: Knowledge Organiser on Gas Exchange and Breathing Topic

(0)
Knowledge organisers have become increasingly popular with both students and teachers alike. Research shows that students find them a much more effective tool to condense their topic notes, in order to learn the content for assessments. Even better is that the notes are laid out on one page, rather than over several pages in a textbook or revision guide. The knowledge organiser has two versions, a completed version/answer sheet and a worksheet version, which allows pupils to be more active in their learning and complete diagram labelling/sentences/tables etc. The knowledge organiser covers all of the gas exchange topic (topic 11) on the CIE IGCSE course and features the following subtopics: Lung structure and function Gas exchange and the adaptations of the alveoli The process of ventilation The effect of exercise on breathing Make sure you print out on A3 paper Thanks for looking.
Biology CIE IGCSE Classification and Cell Biology Multiple Choice Pack *With Answers*
beckystokebeckystoke

Biology CIE IGCSE Classification and Cell Biology Multiple Choice Pack *With Answers*

(3)
The Biology CIE IGCSE Classification and Cell Biology Multiple Choice Pack has forty multiple choice questions covering the following topics from the specification: 1 Characteristics and classification of living organsims 2 Organisation of living organisms 3 Movement into and out of cells Uses of the Question Pack: As a class exercise: students work through the question pack as individuals or in small groups with a competitive timed element and see which individual/team can get the most correct in the time allocated - this works well during revision sessions. As a homework task for students to complete - there is an student answer document provided for students to write their answers into for marking. As a formative assessment to identify topics covered by the questions that students may need to revisit. As a summative assessment at the end of teaching the topics covered by the questions. Or another way I have used the packs is to print off several copies and place in a labelled document wallet. During general exam preparation sessions, these are provided alongside other topic MCQ packs (I will be adding more topic packs soon as a bundle). Students can pick and choose which topic packs to attempt, but they don’t write on the question paper so it can be reused. Answers can be recorded in a printed copy of the student answer table. You can also print off a few of the mark schemes for pupils, and place in the folder too, so they can mark their own answers or peer mark. There is two formats provided for the answers: A table of correct answers which can be displayed or printed with all answers shown at the same time. A PDF copy of the questions, marked up with the correct answers, this is great for displaying on an interactive board for discussion of the questions and their answers
