I am a secondary science teacher from Plymouth, United Kingdom. I have a passion for designing interactive, engaging and well scaffolded resources that are inclusive for all pupils. I teach all years, from years 7-13. I teach KS3 Activate (Biology, Chemistry and Physics), AQA GCSE Combined Science Trilogy (Biology and Chemistry), AQA GCSE Biology, AQA GCSE Chemistry, and A Level Biology (OCR A).

This is a worksheet designed for a KS3 class studying the structure of a flower.
Students use the key word bank to identify and label the key reproductive organs in a flower (anther, carpel, filament, ovary, stamen, stigma, style).
Students will also describe the function of each reproductive organ. Students can select the correct function from the support box.
Includes an answer key.
These definitions are in line with the KS3 Activate curriculum.
A full 1 hour lesson designed for a mixed ability year 8 class.
This is the 7th lesson in “Chapter 1 - Health and Lifestyle” from Activate 2, Biology.
This lesson should be suitable to teach to any KS3 Biology class, even by those where Biology is not their specialism.
From this lesson, students should be able to:
Define the term ‘drug’
Describe the difference between medicinal drugs and recreational drugs
Name some examples of illegal drugs
Describe the effects of recreational drugs on the body
