A collection of visually appealing worksheets focusing on how the leaf is suited to photosynthesis and also limiting factors of photosynthesis. A visually appealing set of two worksheets/placemats for GCSE students on firstly, the structure of the leaf and how it is adapted for photosynthesis, and secondly, the process of photosynthesis and limiting factors. Perfect for use when both teaching the topic area and also for revision. Each worksheet should take approximately 10-15 minutes to complete. As a suggestion the resource could be laminated and completed by students using OHP pens and then cleaned off for future use with other pupils. These sheets could even be used as a short progress test with students too. An answer sheet is included for both worksheets for teachers.

This resource features a multiple-choice pack containing 20 questions. This pack covers Topic 8 of the IGCSE CIE course on Transport in Plants. These packs can be used in a number of ways: Use as a homework task for consolidation or assessment of prior knowledge of a topic Multiple-choice challenge, where students either individually or in teams compete against one another to get the most correct answers (15 minutes is a good time allowance to give) As an assessment (15-20 minutes) For revision of a topic before an exam Answers are provided (can be projected to go through the correct answers and allow pupils to self or peer mark), and also an answer grid for students to complete if you would rather reuse the question papers, rather than the students writing on them.

This is a 40 mark/40 minute assessment featuring 10 multiple choice questions and 30 marks of structured questions to give students practice of both styles of question. A mark scheme is included for the assessment.

There is a separate answer sheet provided for the teacher too.

A visually appealing and well laid out A level worksheet pack focusing on plant responses and the plant hormones involved. There are three worksheets included in the pack, designed for pupils to work through independently. Once completed these worksheets will create a set of useful and detailed revision notes for students. Worksheets cover the following: Overview of plant responses and the roles of the 5 main plant hormones. This worksheet comes with 5 information sheets, one for each hormone, that pupils can use to complete the table element of the worksheet. Plant responses to the environment Types of plant response (tropisms) Answer sheets are provided for all three worksheets.

This Biology GCSE worksheet pack covers the topic of characteristics of life and is a great introductory lesson for any Biology GCSE course. Objectives covered are: Define the terms which describe the characteristics of living organisms Recognise examples of characteristics in different organisms and how they relate to one another for survival Resources Included: Two worksheets with answer sheets included The first worksheet is designed for pupils to record the key definition for each characteristic. The second sheet is a set of questions, which are of varied demand and can be used as either a consolidation task, an assessment or as a homework which can be peer marked the following lesson. A colour poster of the characteristics of life for display Key features of the worksheets: Visually engaging for students and clearly laid out Familiarisation of students with key words, their correct spelling and definitions Neat summary of the content for students’ notes (can be easily placed into a file or stuck into books) Comprehensive corresponding answer sheets for the teacher Helpful for lesson preparation for non-specialist science teachers These sheets are also available in a whole lesson pack with a PowerPoint to support the delivery of the lesson and integration of the worksheets into the lesson. https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/gcse-biology-complete-lesson-on-the-characteristics-of-life-mrs-gren-12284659

This is an all inclusive worksheet pack on the well-known osmosis and potato chip investigation. In reality this practical does not always generate the expected results due to sources of error and time constraints to set up, hence why I have put this investigation pack together. All answers are provided for the teacher. The pack contains the following: Worksheet 1 introduces the set up of the investigation and pupils need to come up with a hypothesis. Pupils are given results and are asked to calculate change in mass and percentage change in mass. Three versions of the graph paper are provided, each with a different level of support, as many pupils will find drawing the graph with a negative y axis challenging. Worksheet 3 focuses on identifying the different variables and drawing a conclusion from the results. Worksheet 4 focuses on sources of error and how to improve the practical to reduce these, so focuses more on developing pupils’ evaluative skills. There are also extension questions on osmosis and its effect on cells, for those students who may work quicker through the activity.

The biological drawing skill is an important one to develop in students and is assessed by a number of exam boards at GCSE, including CIE.

This package includes: An ‘exemplar for improvement’, for students to review and evaluate weaknesses and strengths of the drawing A mark scheme with the key issues with the ‘exemplar for improvement’ drawing listed to develop students understanding of the key criteria required when producing a biological drawing A model exemplar to show students the drawing with all ammendments made 5 practice biological drawing exam questions with the addition of a marking criteria rubric to guide students with the key elements needed to achieve a biological drawing of a high standard (each question has a exam board mark scheme provided for the teacher)
