Cell revision lesson - Year 7

(7)
Year 7 revision lesson on the cells topic. Students play bingo by listening to the definitions of the key words. Students put up their hands to give their answer which is shared with the rest of the group then ticked off. The second half of the lesson is designed as a 'pub quiz' activity - students get into team of 5/6 and come up with a team name. Answers are peer-assessed. Prizes were given to the winners to keep up the competitive spirit. Please rate & comment as appropriate

Animal & Plant cell structure - Year 7

(5)
A year 7 lesson with a focus on animal cells and also animal & plant cell structure. Students prepare slides with their own cheek cells, then examine them under the microscope. They then compare these with the onion cells they examined in the previous lesson. Students are given the black and white version of the animal and plant cells - they draw lines to match up the correct parts of the cell. The plenary can be done as a drag and drop or as a drawing the line. Students can vote on whether they agree/disagree with the answer given. Please rate é comment as appropriate.

Students start by matching famous parents with famous children (most do get correct answers!). Then a discussion on how they did this an dhow characteristics are inherited. It touches on sexual and asexual reproduction through discussion on how different organisms reproduce. Good introduction to a topic. Please rate & comment.
