GCSE Biology B1 - Cell Levels System revision follows the Gateway Science specification. This resourse is for Year 9 - 11 pupils. It summaries the key concepts on all the B1 topics to include B1.1 Cell structure, B1.2 What happens in cells, B1.3 Respiration and B1.4 Photosynthesis. Students must fill in the keywords that are missing on the ‘student version’ ppt. There is answers on the ‘answer’ ppt. that accompanies the student version and there is a help sheet, this displays the keywords for students. Please note triple concepts are not included in these summaries (I usually get my triples to do up their own slide on the triple concept that is missing.) The dept of practical/experimental knowledge is also missing but please see me other resources on GCSE Biology practical summaries. Students (especially the lower ability) find these revision sheets very helpful and they form the backbone of their revision.
