This sheet forms a summary of the action of ADH and how it affects water reabsorption in the kidneys. The finished diagram excellently serves to illustrate osmoregulation as part of a negative feedback system.

This single sided sheet examines the structure of the sarcomere and challenges students to apply newly acquired knowledge in a straightforward manner encouraging future recall. A full markscheme is included. Do note, this sheet complements my other muscle resources, available through my shop.

This sheet and PowerPoint introduce family trees and reinforces work on monohybrid inheritance and punnet squares. The sheet includes interpretation and completion of a family tree alongside some punnet squares and reasoning questions. The Powerpoint of only 4 slides acts as an initial stimulus but also shows the solution to the family tree.

A double-sided worksheet (with markscheme). The worksheet requires students to work out the efficiency of energy transfers at different trophic levels and consider these in a real world context. Questions examine where energy is lost at each stage and also begins to link this to the sustainability of food production.

This PowerPoint of 8 slides outlines the structure of the chloroplast and examines the smaller structures within. The accompanying work/note-sheet allows students to record the information in a visually engaging way. This is aimed at A-level students (16 to 18 years old) and would serve as an excellent activity as part of an introduction to photosynthesis or in partnership with a chlorophyll chromatography practical activity.

This single sided worksheet and markscheme serves to summarise the key parts of a respirometer and it's use in measuring rates of reaction.

This 11 mark sheet challenges students to convert units from cm or millimetres into micrometres and to use the magnification formula to complete 3 calculations as well as identify the type of electron microscope used to obtain each image. The included mark-scheme is a PowerPoint file allowing easy feedback and peer or self assessment.

This resource serves as an excellent summary of how ADH is used to regulate water reabsorption in the kidneys. Included is the template sheet, a sheet of 2 tile-sets to be cut out and a PowerPoint markscheme that can be projected and used to add tiles one at a time as a stimulus. The sheet includes the hypothalamus, pituitary gland, the action of ADH at the kidney and how this affects reabsorption in the collecting duct. Works equally well as an accompaniment to my PowerPoint on the Kidneys or as a stand-alone activity.

This sheet, printed at A3 provides a full summary of both the Light Dependent and Light Independent reactions of photosynthesis presented as a detailed flow chart. There is room for annotation as students revise/as you talk through the processes.

This double sided sheet can be printed at A4 but works better as an A3 resource. This sheet covers the key areas of neuron structure, reflexes and synaptic transmission (including neuromuscular junction, summation, inhibition and drugs). Please note this sheet is part 2 of 2 and, when coupled with Sheet 1, a more comprehensive coverage of the necessary nervous control aspects results. Individual sections contain marking points/scores so as to allow easy feedback and AFL with the included full mark scheme. This gives you flexibility as to how you use the resource and opens up peer assessment/self assessment opportunities.

2 Resources Included: 1.) Reflection practical worksheet - looking at specular and diffuse reflection. A more open-ended extension activity for more able students forms the final task and allows further experimentation - with curved mirrors for example. 2.) A consolidation or homework task that puts the emphasis on the correct drawing of ray diagrams.

The resource consists of a 16 slide PowerPoint, a short summary worksheet, and practical task worksheet. The PowerPoint details learning objectives and a starter/stimulus activity for students before diverging into four separate sections which can be navigated from the central menu. The four sections deal with: Explaining Refraction; Ray Diagrams; Lenses; and Refraction in real life. Each section consists of animated slides and diagrams which help explain all the necessary content with a few optional extras for those more capable classes. The summary sheet should serve to help students reflect on and revise the taught concepts and ties in with the PowerPoint. The Practical Worksheet talks students through a series of experiments using rayboxes and prisms/lenses (Specifically rectangular prisms and converse lens prisms - though an extension activity allows for further experimentation) and has an open-ended extension activity for more able students.

The resource is targeted at a GCSE required practical on the AQA scheme of work. Contents include a PowerPoint of 9 slides, a foundation and higher level practical worksheet (differentiated around drawing the results table), a purpose made excel spreadsheet for recording class data for detailed analysis and a printable template you can stick on a metre rule to measure reaction time. The PowerPoint includes a stimulus activity that recaps the nervous pathway and 3 slides outlining animal reaction times/speeds of response for comparison/stimulation of interest. The practical sheet includes full instructions for students and some summary questions. The excel spreadsheet is locked for editing aside from an area for students to complete in a central location (ie- projected onto the whiteboard) and will draw a graph complete with range bars based on average class data. The graph can be printed after the practical as required to allow more detailed analysis of class results.

This A-level resource challenges students to apply their existing knowledge of absorption in the small intestine to explain how ORS works as an effective treatment for Cholera. Students will need to apply their knowledge and understanding of what happens during absorption and apply it to unfamiliar situations. A full makscheme is included to allow teacher, peer or self marking as best fits your afl needs.

This PowerPoint is a step-by-step, annotated accounting of the working of the sodium potassium pump. Simple animations show the interactions of pump, ATP, ADP, sodium ions and potassium ions. Also included is a scaffolded notesheet including part-drawn diagrams that students can quickly complete as they learn about the process. Please note: The preview thumbnails have unfortunately created some graphical glitches/artefacts that don’t appear in the actual slides.

This resource serves as an excellent summary of how hormones released by the pancreas regulate blood glucose levels in the body. Included is the template sheet, a sheet of 2 tile-sets to be cut out and a PowerPoint markscheme that can be projected and used to add tiles one at a time as a stimulus. The sheet includes content up to A-level (16 to 18 yrs) complexity and details action of the pancreas both as receptor and effector.

This worksheet includes a colour in key and complete the diagram task alongside a number of short answer questions. A PowerPoint mark scheme is also included.

This sheet looks at how glucose is transported across epithelial cells of the small intestine and into the blood. It requires students to demonstrate their understanding of active transport (the Sodium-Potassium pump) and co-transport in a series of tasks and questions. A full markscheme is included.

This double sided sheet can be printed at A4 but works better as an A3 resource. This sheet covers the key areas of receptor function in creating a generator potential (specifically the Eye and Pacinian corpuscle), Resting Potential and the propagation of an Action Potential. Please note this sheet is part 1 of 2 and, when coupled with Sheet 2, a more comprehensive coverage of the necessary nervous control aspects will result. Individual sections contain marking points/scores so as to allow easy feedback and AFL with the included full mark scheme. This gives you flexibility as to how you use the resource and opens up peer assessment/self assessment opportunities.

This double sided worksheet serves as a summary of the main points of the Nitrogen cycle as covered at A-level and creates a useful revision resource when completed. The fist question involves a short sequencing/cut and stick activity to create an overview diagram of the cycle with the following questions testing students understanding of the processes it shows. Later questions tackle leguminous plants and eutrophication as well as how carnivorous plants use alternate strategies to harness nitrogen. Also included is a full markscheme that can be printed for traditional teacher assessment or projected for peer to peer or self assessment, introducing each answer with a click of the mouse.
