Revision worksheet for the new Exploring Science 7D unit all about Ecosystems. Intended to be printed as an A3 double sided worksheet - has learning outcomes on reverse side to check learning against

SB1f lesson from the new Edexcel Biology GCSE (9-1) all about testing foods. The lesson includes an enzymes recap, the iodine test, the Benedict’s test, the ethanol test, the biuret test and how calorimeter’s work. Also included is a structure strip to help students stucture the write up to the SB1f core practical in their books (the idea is that they stick it down the left side of their page and write the correct information in each section)

SB3e lesson from the new Edexcel Biology GCSE (9-1) all about genetic variants and phenotypes. The lesson covers using an mRNA/amino acid table, what mutations are, mutations in haemoglobin and the effects of mutations in non-coding DNA. One of the tasks (about 10 minutes of the lesson) involves the use of the Pearson ActiveTeach worksheets, but could easily be replaced by other worksheets/tasks

Revision worksheet all about the kidney / osmoregulation aspect of the Edexcel SB7 topic for the biology GCSE. Answers provided in the second document.

Useful microscope images (all labelled) from the first year of the OCR biology A Level. Intended to help students get to grips with the kind of things that might come up in the exam for them to recognise or label.

Quick revision activity for Edexcel B3 (old spec). I give each student a card which has a question and an answer on it and they need to arrange themselves to match up the correct questions and answers. The start card only has a question and the end card only has an answer (depending on how many in the class they could be placed on either side of the room).

Revision activity to help students revise all the topics found in the year 8 part of the new Exploring Science scheme of work. The idea is that students make their way around the clock, spending 5 minutes on each section.

Revision worksheet for the Edexcel GCSE Combined Science CB1 topic (cells, enzymes, transporting substances). The idea is that students spend 5 minutes on each segment of the worksheet and make their way around the clock. The page numbers referenced are the Edexcel Combined Science text books .

Revision activity for the Edexcel combined science CB5 topic ‘Health, Disease and the development of medicines’.

Revision activity for the Edexcel combined science GCSE CB6 topic and biology GCSE SB6 topic. The idea is that in pairs/groups, students roll two dice to determine which questions to answer and fill them in on the sheet.

Revision activity for the new Edexcel combined science CB6 topic. The idea of the activity is that they need to get all the questions answered on their sheet working cooperatively with the rest of class, with each person only being able to contribute one answer to each worksheet. I also allowed them to ask me to answer one question but could also be done independently amongst the students.

A worksheet for students to do whilst watching the Our Planet documentary The High Seas episode (season 1, episode 6). The episode is currently available on Netflix and DVD. Answers are also included.

Lesson looking at some different science based careers and the transferable skills gained in science lessons.

Collection of QR codes for students to scan to take them to relevant wider reading / watching about modules 3 and 4 of the OCR biology A A Level. Includes links for: Chapter 7- Exchange surfaces and breathing Chapter 8- Transport in animals Chapter 9- Transport in plants Chapter 10- Classification and evolution Chapter 11- Biodiversity Chapter 12- Communicable diseases

Revision activity for the biological molecules topic in the OCR Biology A Level. Students get given the cards and have to arrange themselves in order so that the questions and answers are next to each other. One card has just a question (the beginning) and one has just an answer (the end). Covers content on carbohydrates, lipids and proteins.

CB8a lesson from the new Edexcel combined science GCSE (9-1) all about efficient transport and exchange. The lesson includes which substances are taken in by the body and which are excreted, a recap on diffusion, how exchange surfaces are adapted to increase the rate of diffusion, Surface Area: Volume ratio, alveoli and a recap on root hair cells. There is one task near the end of the lesson which requires the use of the ActiveTeach worksheets but could easily be missed out or swapped for other available worksheets.

A series of 21 (one for each weekday in October) black scientists from across different fields for use/display within science lessons this Black History Month (October in the UK).

Revision worksheet for the Edexcel GCSE Combined Science CB4 topic (evolution, natural selection, classification, selective breeding, genetic engineering). The idea is that students spend 5 minutes on each segment of the worksheet and make their way around the clock. The page numbers referenced are the Edexcel Combined Science text books .
