Common Species Field Guide

(0)
A field guide for use with identifying species on a field trip. Made with a specific location and field trip in mind but all the species are very common across the UK and could be used in most places. The field guide is separated into sections including Grassland (44 species) Trees (28 species) Pond Life (20 species) Invertebrates (32 species) Mammals (16 species) Birds (52 species) Also included are the species record sheets that we used and the PowerPoint presentation used to introduce the students to the field trip at the start of the day including how to use the field guides.

A lesson looking at Women in Science and the contributions they have made, hopefully inspiring young girls in Schools to consider a career in STEM fields. Starter: Work out what all the pictures have in common (all discoveries made by women), match up the questions to the percentage answers. Main:Task 1- complete the 'Women In Science Factfind' worksheet using the computers. Task 2- Create a factfile about a particular woman in Science. 5 factfiles to go through as a class to give them an idea of what to include. Plenary: Sharing in pairs information about their woman in Science, then presenting to the group interesting facts about their woman in Science. Homework: Produce a poster or leaflet to persuade more women / girls to get into scientific fields of work. The last slide has links to different organisation that work to get more women into scientific fields of work.

Edexcel B3 Loop Game

Edexcel B3 Loop Game

(1)
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).
Edexcel CP7/8 'Find Someone Who...' Activity

Edexcel CP7/8 'Find Someone Who...' Activity

(0)
Revision activity for CP7/8 units in the new Edexcel Combined Science GCSE (9-1). 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.
