This build your own airplane task uses 18 information cards. Students choose 6 cards and calculate the forces involved. There are 3 options for each of the parts:
- nose cone
- wings
- flaps
- engines
- fuselage
- tail fin
This should be a fun but informative activity that gets students thinking and analysing problems. I have added a template that can be used with lower ability students.

A differentiated resource for producing a labelled diagram of a bacterium. There are two main versions of this activity, but both of them require the information cards. These can be printed out and placed around the room.
The first version is an all in one A4 sheet that has the diagram and labels that can be cut out and stuck on. This is better suited to lower ability students, they can find out where the parts are by looking at the information around the room.
The second version requires the diagram with no labels. Students have to collect the information from around the room and write it on their diagram. I run this as a memory game, giving students two rules: they can only write on their diagram at their desk, and they cannot move the information sheets.
The PowerPoint features an example for students to follow (for the cut and stick). It also has the diagram for you to project and annotate on a white board if necessary.
