I specialise in general science resources for KS3 and KS4 and biology for KS5. I try to make my resources suitable for non-specialists and teachers new to the subject, by including answers to any questions and full step-by-step explanations. I love flashcards and try to make a set for each unit I deliver. I am in the process of upgrading these to colour coded (differentiated) sets. All newly added resources will have a remote-learning version too (just in case :-))

This is a single lesson on ‘The scientific method’ Produced for KS3 it is also suitable for KS4 lower sets. We have produced 5 sets of 4 lessons for year 7 and year 8 which we deliver in 5 'skills weeks throughout the year. I will make these lessons availably singly, in sets of 4 and as whole year sets as they become available. This is year 8 - skills week 2, lesson 4 The lessons can of course be taught in any order and as stand-alone lessons. All lessons have literacy support sheets where needed for students who struggle with writing. Lessons are suitable for delivery by specialists and non-specialists and this lesson has a remote delivery version included.

This flashcards have been made using the AQA biology text book as source material. 78 of the questions are both combined and separate science 24 of the questions are separate science only (and are labelled as such) Print double sided (flip long edge) to produce the correct answer on the back of the correct card. These took me a whole weekend to make so I hope they’re useful. (also available in a bundle)

40 flashcards to help revision for unit tests or GCSE exam - combined content (no cards for fission or fusion). Print double-sided to ensure answers are on the back of each card (flip long edge). Blank card pages included too so students can create their own questions and answers if needed.

Please note the preview shows cards with words carried over from one line to another - they do not look like this, I’m not sure why the preview has squeezed the file! I have created these homeostasis flashcards to help my GCSE biology students to revise for their Biology exams. This set covers homeostasis. Print double sided (flip on long edge) so that the answers are on the back of the card. In this set I have identified which cards are separate science only, so that I don’t give these to my combined science students. It took my eight hours to make these so I hope you find them useful. I have other sets available, but this is the first set that I have highlighted the separate science content. I hope you find it useful - please leave feedback if you have time.

This is a set of 54 double sided flashcards (print double sided, flip long edge) on the atomic structure unit. I have colour coded them (blue = easiest, green = harder, red = hardest), so you can differentiate by asking different groups to focus on learning different colour groups. I’ve made these for my year 9’s end of unit test, but I will also be using them with my year 11s for revision.

This is the Introduction to Homeostasis lesson I made for my year 10s as a gentle introduction to the topic. It includes a link the the Amoeba Sisters video on the topic, but I’ve included a sheet of questions students should try to answer while the video is on so they don’t switch off.

These are 29 flashcards (print double sided - flip on long edge) for the Activate 1 (2016 edition) book Electromagnets: Potential Difference and Resistance. I have updated these to colour-code them for differentiation. Blue spotted questions are the easiest, then green spotted questions. Red spotted questions are the most difficult. There is a sheet which explains how to use the flashcard five tick method.

No text books are needed for this session. This is a gentle introduction to homeostasis that I created for my lower ability year 10s. There are a few slides where they need to take notes (print off for some students) There is a 6 minute video (the lovely amoeba sisters) overview of homeostasis. I have included a question sheet (answers in powerpoint) so students are answering questions as they watch. A short exam question at the end to test understanding - then a quick plenary question session to check recall of the main points. The exam question is basic - you may want to replace this for a higher ability class.

This is a Powerpoint that covers all of chapter B1 of the AQA Biology text book in one revision session. Can be used for pre paper 1 biology revision or for an end of chapter test for younger students. It’s a whistle-stop tour of the main points from this chapter. Students write down the parts they are unsure of only There is no content in this chapter than is separate science only, so this is suitable for both combined science and separate science.

Encourage your students to learn key definitions as they study with this keyword definition list for B1 (AQA). Includes blank list (so students can find their own definitions), definitions and test. I will be making these for each unit as I prepare to teach them so look back here for more lists appearing. Each keyword list is designed for top set Biology students aiming for grade 9. For lower sets and combined science students, delete as many of the words as needed to make it manageable for them as appropriate.
