I'm a teacher working in a leading secondary school and I have always enjoyed resourcing. I resource many of my lessons and these are always well received by my department so I thought I'd try to bring them to a larger audience. I have a firm belief that worksheets should combine aesthetics with functionality and pride myself on polished, well presented resources that scaffold without leading and encourage critical thinking from students.

6 Resources
Make a huge saving of 45% on these 6 revision resources: Five double-sided A3 revision sheets targeted at topic 3.6 of the AQA A-level syllabus alongside a relay quiz to further reinforce subject knowledge. Nervous Control sheets 1 and 2 deal with synapses, neurons, receptors, resting potential, action potential and more besides. The muscles sheet works through the structure of muscles and muscle types before examining sliding filament theory. The kidneys sheet works fully through the processes of ultrafiltration, reabsorption and osmoregulation. The newly added Blood-Glucose regulation sheet examines this homeostatic process in detail. Exploring the various ways in which glucose can be metabolised as well as reviewing the organs involved and the actions of Insulin, Glucagon and Adrenaline at a cellular level.
