Short lesson which outlines the importance of Surface to Volume ratio. Includes short video clip and worksheet where students perform some simple calculations. Suitable for most A level Biology specifications.
Full lesson which outlines what the humoral and cell-mediated responses are. Also contains a simple card sort activity, students then use this to come up with and design their own flow diagram to illustrate the humoral response. Also illustrates the roles of the different types of white blood cell.
Fact sheet produced for students of all ability. Students should memorise all facts on sheet on sheet in preparation for their B2 Biology exam. They could highlight, tick off and annotate fact sheet. Facts should match up with key points from markscheme.
Full lesson which supports the Core Practical 12 - Using optical method to measure bacterial growth. Lesson and power point outlines how to carry out Aseptic techniques, provides sample data, sample graphs and will allow students to evidence the standards for this core practical. Also involves calculation of exponential growth rate constant.
This lesson relates to new Edexcel Biology B specification, Topic 6 Lesson 1 - Microbial Techniques. The lesson illustrates what Aseptic techniques are (using a card sort) and students then summarise in their own words. It also outlines the different methods of measuring bacterial growth, counting, turbidity etc. It includes a series of exam questions and these are also embedded throughout the lesson. Contains a step by step lesson plan which can be easily adapted. A practical on aseptic techniques could be incorporated. 100 minute lesson but easily split into two separate lessons. Also contains an exam question associated with the Exponential Growth Constant as per the new specification.
Excellent resource which outlines all aspects of electrolysis. Power point contains a detailed breakdown of what happens at the anode and cathode in various electrolysis reactions. Suitable for all exam boards. Contains multiple activities, easily adaptable to suit class of any ability.
Full/complete ready to teach lesson about Esters. Lesson outlines how esters are formed, naming of esters. Structure of esters, word and symbol equations. Also included simple practical activity in which students can make a variety of esters. Lesson also involves use of molly mod kits. Could be used as a double or single lesson. Ideal for C3 Edexcel exam board but will fit with any exam board in which Esters are covered.
Full lesson which outlines what reversible reactions are, what happens when we change the temperature and pressure of these reactions. Lesson also includes details of the Haber Process and involves the completion of a 6 mark question about the Haber Process. Excellent lesson ready to pick up and teach.
Full lesson outlining Gas Volume calculations, ready to pick up and teach. Includes colour coded differentiated calculation questions. Exam questions for edexcel C3 also included with markscheme.
Full self explanatory lesson, with demonstrations, video clips and exam questions. Ready to teach. Outlines how ethanol can be produced using fermentation or using ethane and steam. Easily adaptable to suit any class. Will work for any exam board but was originally made for Edexcel C3.
Full 100 minute lesson and lesson plan about Protein Synthesis. Includes differentiated statement sheets to assist students of all abilities. Suitable for all exam boards but was originally made to support Edexcel Biology B2 Topic 1.
2 x 50 minute lessons for Topic 1 Biological Molecules. In L3 Metabolism, students will learn what metabolism is and how it is a combination of anabolism and catabolism, this links nicely with the theory of Hydrolysis and Condensation reactions covered in the previous 2 lessons. (See L1 & L2). In L3 students will focus more closely on Lipids/Fatty acid and begin to gain a better understanding of condensation reactions and how ester bonds can form to make triglycerides. Essay questions and multiple learning activities included in both lessons.
Long Answer booklets I created to use with Chemistry, Biology and Physics triple Science students. Print booklet off as A5 for each student and use during the revision period. Suitable for AQA or Edexcel. 30-40 pages of 6 mark questions in each booklet.
Lesson 2 in the SOW for Biology B Topic 1 - Biological Molecules. In this lesson students focus more closely on carbohydrates and describe the key differences between alpha glucose, beta glucose. They also will be highlighting the differences in structure and function of glycogen, cellulose and starch. Molly mod kits are needed for this lesson. There are also an assortment of exam questions which can be used.
Atomic Structure and Nuclear Physics KS3 Scheme of Work created to replace the Rocks and Weathering Unit at KS3. (As the majority of the Rocks content has been taken out of the new Science GCSEs first exam June 2017). This includes 9 full 100 minute lessons plus resources for each. The full scheme of work and lesson plan for each is also included with additional technician notes for each lesson. This unit is ready to use and implement and could save hours and hours of work for your team. We have been using this with our Year 8 pupils and it is a great way to introduce some difficult concepts early on such as Atomic Structure and Nuclear Physics.

A full lesson, easily adaptable for a single or double lesson. Lesson plan can be found on first slide. This is entirely suitable for the first ever Biology A-Level lesson as an introduction into key Biological Molecules. This could even be used as a Biology A-Level taster lesson for prospective 6th form students. This is suitable for use with new Edexcel Biology B specification. Lesson also involves the active use of molecular model kits.
Simple worksheet also included for students to complete during the lesson or as independent study. The worksheet simply requires them to draw, name and describe the uses of Key Biological molecules.
A series of posters I created and laminated in an attempt to create and ‘interactive’ class room in which teachers can use the starters or plenaries on the walls or even let the pupils choose them. Also contains a power point with a series of different levelled questions. Over 4000 minutes worth of editing time. Great for display boards in class rooms. Starter and Plenary essentials.
One contains a variety of starter activity that can be used as a display or as booklets on the desk. The second contains a variety of plenary displays that can be used as a display or as booklets for the teacher to use. The other is a very colourful Blooms’ Higher order Thinking Board, we called this the HOT board and we get students to select questions and phrases to use in their exercise books.
2 worksheets created for a lower ability Year 8 class. Perfect for a starter activity, students can match up the pictures to the description and name of the resource. This could be completed on the interactive white board or printed and given to students as a short starter activity.
Non-renewable and renewable energy resources covered.
