This is a lesson I used myself to teach the cell recognition and immunity concept of unit 2 cells - a level biology, AQA specification. Learning objective: Analyse the pathway of immune response, compare passive and active immunity and evaluate the structure of an antibody. By the end of the lesson learners should be able to: Success Criteria: Identify the different components of an immune response. Describe the process of active immunity. Explain why antibody structure leads to its success in eliminating pathogens. The lesson is broken to be split across 2 teaching periods (1 hr each) The first lesson is outlined above. The second furthers the learning to first infection and second infection in terms of antibodies in the system, explaining this and exploring herd immunity. Contains past paper questions that target this topic, some questions require knowledge from prior lessons. Powerpoint contains 29 slides and 9 past paper questions. A lesson plan is also attached outlining how I would teach the lesson.

I can describe the process of DNA replication. I can explain what is meant by the semi conservative hypothesis. Powerpoint contains 10 slides. Contains past paper questions that target this topic, some questions require knowledge from prior lessons.

This is a lesson I used myself to teach the studying cells concept of unit 2 cells - a level biology, AQA specification. Learning objective: Compare microscopes, calculate magnification, calibrate eyepiece graticules and evaluate cell fractionation. By the end of the lesson learners should be able to: Success criteria: SC1: I can calculate magnification and compare this to resolution. SC2: I can compare transmission, scanning electron microscopes and optical microscopes. SC3: I can explain the process of ultracentrifugation and cell fractionation. Contains past paper questions that target this topic, some questions require knowledge from prior lessons. Powerpoint contains 14 slides and 7 past paper questions.

Resource designed to use when delivering the Pearsons international BTEC Applied Science Level 3: Unit 14: Genetics and Genetic engineering Basic DNA techniques and genetic engineering technology Learning aim D: Explore basic DNA techniques and the use of genetic engineering technologies.

A revision poster that includes material needed for section 8 of the edexcel iGCSE combined science double award biology. Section 8 - Ecology and the environment A blank copy for students to fill in is also included for students to test their knowledge. I would recommend to print these in A3 and guide the students through the answers using the completed revision poster attached. Due to the amount of detail needed to squeeze into one poster, the font is small in some sections which might need some further zooming in on presenting devices.

A series of 3 lessons which teach students the principles of industrial fermentation. **Lesson 1: Bacteria and yoghurt ** Learning objective: Evaluate the conditions needed for bacteria to thrive and produce insulin / yoghurt. Success criteria: Identify the steps of yogurt production. Describe the role of bacteria in fermentation. Evaluate the use of industrial fermenters. 21 slides. Lesson 2: Yeast and bread Learning objective: Explain why yeast is used in the process of manufacturing bread. Success criteria: Identify the equation for fermentation. Describe how bread is made. Explain why people don’t become drunk from eating bread… 8 slides Lesson 3: practical investigation Learning objective: Analyse how factors affect the growth of yeast and justify your conclusions. Success criteria: I can identify independent and dependent variables. I can describe control variables that will impact the investigation. I can evaluate how temperature affects growth. 23 slides Each activity offered is differentiated and each lesson includes progress checks. Past paper questions are also included to ensure adequate challenge is set to students. Content was made for iGCSE students for edexcel 9-1 combined science.

A collection of 3 posters that summarises the content needed for unit 1 Biology Applied Science Pearsons Edexcel level 3. The following concepts are covered: Cell theory, Ultrastructure of cells, Prokaryotic cells and Gram stain technique, Specialised cells, Epithelial tissue, Muscle tissue, Nervous tissue, Nerve impulses, Electrocardiogram graphs of the heart. The revision poster includes blank versions and answer keys.

All features work when used with google slides. All features should work with PowerPoint, but might need some rearranging. By the end of the lesson learners will be able to: Identify the key characteristics of fossils of the oldest primate. Describe the process of peer review. Explain how a recent fossil find makes scientists question earlier explanations about evolution.

Lessons created to complement the activate 3 unit of work - Detection in biology. By the end of the lesson learners should be able to: Identify factors that can be investigated from a body. Describe the role of a pathologist. Compare dental records to bite marks.

A comprehensive collection of 32 slides which contain all of the relevant information for BTEC Applied Science Unit 9B Homeostatic mechanisms used by the human body Includes a writing frame to help students. B. D2 Analyse the impact of homeostatic dysfunction on the human body - discusses the impact of hyperglycemia and hypoglycemia. B. M2 Explain the role of hormones in homeostatic mechanisms - discusses the impacts of ADH on the nephron, the impact of insulin and glucagon on blood glucose levels. B. P2 Describe how homeostatic mechanisms maintain normal function - Discusses the function of thermoregulation, the endocrine system, osmoregulation, the kidneys, the nephron and blood glucose levels. Questions are included in the majority of slides in order for students to engage with the content whilst being taught. There are unlabelled diagrams of the: endocrine system, urinary system, the kidney and the nephron. With labelled content with function to reach the “illustrative” criteria of the coursework.
