This is lesson 2 of 7 lessons that can be used in part or whole to teach the biology topic of interdependence in animals and plants. These lessons are not board specific and can be used (dependent on ability) from KS3 and KS4. Lesson 2 - Sampling Plants (Quadrats) (THIS LESSON) THESE ARE ALSO AVAILABLE TO BUY Lesson 1 - Interdependence & Biodiversity Lesson 3 - Abundance of Animals (sampling techniques) Lesson 4 - Competition in Animals Lesson 5 - Competition & Adaptations in Plants Lesson 6 - Adaptations in Animals Lesson 7 - Predator Prey Population Graphs Each lesson has a interactive PowerPoint that has a starter and comprehensive explanations that will allow for questioning and discussion. There is a pupil worksheet (both in Publisher for editing, and PDF forms). The worksheet mirrors what has been taught in the lesson. There is a question (and a mark scheme) that can be used to consolidate the learning in the lesson or as homework. The lesson is labeled in the CLF (common lesson format) so pupils are aware of what that section is about.

Since the declaration that GCSE Science pupils wont be able to use equations sheets in future exams, I have been thinking of a system that will help them learn the equations and help staff in facilitating that learning. I have devised this. It is supposed to be used as a starter / plenary for pupils to go over and over and try to implant the equations over time. I will use it in every lesson, parrot fashion for success! This is not board specific as they all will need to learn them, and can be used for the current legacy GCSE students too as a revision resource. This PowerPoint has 10 multiple choice questions on each of the following aspects, SI UNITS, Kinetic Energy, Power, Gravitational Potential Energy, Efficiency and Specific Heat Capacity. The PowerPoint is interactive and not linear so you can jump to any sets of questions from the home page and do them in any order. If you would like to have a look at what it looks like there is a free demo that just has the SI questions. These take some time to make, but I will group the other equations together as I have for the energy equations. I have used the template for my ABCD cards for this endeavour, but you don't need those to utilise these PowerPoints. Be patient, I'm going as fast as I can. Enjoy. *If the person who bought the previous version (without the Specific Heat Capacity) leaves a comment with their e-mail, I will send you this newest version)

This is the full PowerPoint, but a free demo version only has the questions for 'Acceleration' questions, but you will get a good idea of what the paid product will be like. The GCSE PHYSICS Speed Equations full can be found in my store. It has questions on SI Units Questions, Speed/Distance/Time (v=d/t), Acceleration (a=v/t), Force?mass?Acceleration (F=ma), Kinetic Energy (1/2 m v^2), Wavelength/Frequency (v=ƒ λ) and Momentum (p=mv) HIGHER TIER Only. There are another demos and full powerpoints on Energy Equations and Electricity Equations on my page. I have used the template for my ABCD cards for this endeavour, but you don't need those to utilise these PowerPoints. Enjoy.

This is lesson 5 of 7 lessons that can be used in part or whole to teach the biology topic of interdependence in animals and plants. This lesson explains what plants compete for to survive. Modeling gives examples of plants and how they get space, light, water. After the modeling there is opportunity for pupils to apply their knowledge to new examples. Look at how some plants adapt to live in very hot environments. Challenge looks at how leaves are different on different plants and how they help them survive.

I have put together a complete system of resources that will allow staff to easily record and monitor the required practical aspect of the new GCSE science that is replacing the old ISA coursework. The resources include Whole Class Practical Tracker, Pupil Cover Sheets for Each of the Practicals (8 required practical sheets) and an 'On-The-Day' Practical sheets (again one for each of the 8 Chemistry practicals), for the teacher to use in class during the practical to record the Apparatus and Technique (AT) skills that each pupil has to be competent with in Chemistry. This bundle covers the 8 required Chemistry practicals for the Combined Science and Chemistry GCSE's All of the resources compliment each other, use the key coding for assessment to reduce workload and make things easy. I have mirrored the A'Level AQA Practical Assessment for the AQA GCSE, it just seemed logical so that the systems are similar. I have bundled these resources so that it is more cost efficient. If you wish to see how the bundle works and see some screenshots then the instructions are a free download on my page. Enjoy.

This is my new GCSE grade 9-1 tracker. I have designed it so that it can be edited and changed so that it can be used in any subject. The sheet has space for 250 students to be housed. This sheet is your one stop place to track your GCSE class data. The sheet are 12 custom tests (which you can change the raw score and label) and 3 summative tests - these are collated to give an average and an old grade (A*-G) and the new GCSE grading system (9-1) along side each other AND the level of progress. The sheet will calculate the %, grades (old and new), averages and levels of progress.The tests are grouped into three sections (4 tests in each) so - science (Biology, Chemistry, Physics) or English (Written, Literature, Creative) etc. There are 3 Monitoring areas that you can record scores that go towards the whole school data - if this data is below the levels of progress then it will flag the possibility of intervention. Parts of the sheet are protected so that staff can only add their raw data and not accidentally enter where there are formulas that generate supplementary data. The sheet comes with instruction and the password to unlock locked areas of the sheet should you wish. There are screen shots on my page that are free to look at if you want to see what it can do and does before purchase.

This PowerPoint has 6 film picture quizzes (with answers) and interactive format that allows you to go back and forth to the different quizzes in any order you want. The 6 categories are Comedy Films Action Films Horror Films Superhero Films Animated Films Sci-Fi Films Great for end of year class fun, in the classroom and virtually over Zoom / MS Teams or with the family.

This resource has 9 6 mark questions to help with the notoriously bad sucess students have with these questions There are 3 biology examples - photosynthesis, reflex arc and food tests. There are 3 chemistry examples - copper sulphate salts, LCA evaluation and rusting. There are 3 physics examples - density, resistance in a wire and refraction. The PowerPoint has a generic section about how to complete a 6 marker, glossary and then each example has a student sheet and the powerpoint has hints to help write them and then the mark scheme. The PP is fully interactive and you can navigate through the PP with ease with movement keys.

This resource contains 29 quick quizzes I have compiled for the AS AQA new Biology course. Each quiz has 10 questions of varying difficulty and then the answers. There is a linked excel sheet to record results and instructions as how to link the PowerPoint to the excel sheet (can be used without linking to the excel sheet as a stand alone resource too). The PowerPoint contains 29 quizzes spanning the whole AS course with questions and answers and an integrated results sheet to record the results from your class and a handy macro will rank them in order depending on their average through the quizzes. From the menu screen you can skip to any quiz and return back to the menu. Great for starters, plenaries and revision throughout the year.

I have created an assessment analysis tool that can be used for any test up to 20 questions in length. The Excel sheet is primarily designed for science but could be redesigned for other subjects. A sheet is used to enter the year, title, question type, question marks and question description. The % at which levels are given can be changed to suit the year, assessment test in question. All of these will be used to generate a report. The report will have individual information about a students progress in the test. The data generated will be - Total, %, Residual, Level (9-1), Levels of Progress and Progress label. Depending on how well students did for individual questions, the report will highlight which areas (where a student achieved 50% or less of the marks available) students need work on to get them to standard. The test is broken down into the individual science aspects so that staff, pupils and parents can be aware of the strengths and weaknesses of individuals so that areas can be addressed where the standard is below what is expected. TO SEE WITHOUT PAYING - you can download the instructions. I have attached the instructions for the sheet that shows how the sheet works and examples of the generated Mail Merge report. This sheet will not only inform staff, pupils and parents but save time for the staff and be an invaluable tool in identifying areas to help pupils reach their targets.

This is an opportunity to just buy the worksheets from the lessons I have posted. They follow the Biology GCSE Specification (4.6.1) and the Oxford Book Chapter 14. Do NOT buy this if you have bought the bundle as you will already have the worksheets. I have included the Publisher originals as well as PDF copies so people can amend and differentiate should they wish.
