Powerpoint to guide students through how to tackle the more complicated questions
Two worksheets to test understanding. One has answers, the other will have very soon.
Students complete the flipped learning (attached) prior to the lesson. They then arrive and complete a variety of tasks.
Starter - Odd one out, with reasons why
Main - Labelling EM images of cells
Plenary - Exam Questions
Students complete the pre reading prior to the lesson (pre reading included)
Starter - Students check their understanding of standard form and the use of micro, nano and milli
Main - Menu of activities for students to complete their weakest areas first
Plenary - Check understanding based on what they didn't know at the start of the lesson
Students arrive at the lesson having completed their pre reading, and creating a resource for the lesson
Starter - Recap on the previous topics in this chapter, and then recap on KS4 knowledge
Main - Variety of tasks enabling students to identify the stages of mitosis
Plenary - Exam questions on this topic
Lesson looking at Nuclear Fission. My lesson is based on an iPad lesson and the students having access to the files and Keynote. However, you could print out the resources and do cut and stick.
Sequencing tasks have the students order the steps for fission. 1 is easier, 3 more difficult
Starter - thinking about images and the microscopes used to visualise them
Main1 - Label a microscope
Main2 - Look at cells down a microscope
Main3 - Magnification images
Plenary - Overview
Posters of information about each stage should be spread around your room. Students then use the template to determine the order of the life cycle. They are then required to answer one or both of the 6 mark questions. This takes a double lesson with me.
Students complete the pre reading prior to arriving at the lesson
Starter - Activities to label a Plasma Membrane and to recall the definition of Active Transport
Main - Activities to describe active transport, compare it to Osmosis and Diffusion and then look at exam questions
Plenary - Summarise all three transport pathways
First lesson introducing cells.
Starter - Draw a cell
Main - Activities looking at the structures and functions of cells. Long answer questions
Plenary - Kahoot, or you could use the long answer questions if no Kahoot.
All worksheets are in the powerpoint
Students need to arrive to the lesson having complete the pre reading.
Starter - Students recal their knowledge of mitosis using diagrams of the phases
Starter - Students compare mitosis and meiosis
Main - Students complete exam questions where they are required to draw diagrams
Plenary - Kahoot quizzes
Differentiated worksheet and lesson plan to guide students through drawing electronic structures.
For high ability students it starts them looking for patterns which links nicely to the second chapter - The Periodic Table (Which I also have to download)
