GCSE Biology worksheets covering transpiration, xylem, phloem, hydroponics and water movement.
These 6 sheets can be printed as A4 or A3 worksheets.
You can use them as a starter, a plenary or even to set as a homework.
Questions start easy and get harder, finishing with a 6 mark question.
Thank you for looking at my resource. If you like it, please leave feedback.
These sheets cover aspects of GCSE Biology - adaptations.
There are 9 different sheets covering, worksheets, research task, help sheets and revision packs.
GCSE Biology ppt covering what classification is (kingdoms, vertebrates, binomial system and how classification has changed over time. (DNA etc)
Worksheets cover classification questions.
GCSE Biology ppt covering Blood pressure, what is it, systole, diastole, high and low Bp.
Includes a literacy class activity where they have to watch the ppt, then read the information in the task sheet. They then have to make a poster, or class notes on Bp, under 4 specific headings.
The worksheets can be used as starters, plenarys, home works, or just as a quick test next lesson.

This resource was made for my students to follow a comprehensive lesson on Blood Glucose Control. It shows Diabetes, the symptoms and how medical staff test for blood glucose levels. It includes clinistix, blood glucose testing and blood glucose monitoring devices.
The worksheets include a revision card, a quick test and an activity.
This resource works really well when students carry out the Urine stick test practical. An important fil-in help sheet is included for the practical.
Helpsheetscovering cell membrane structure, diffusion, facilitated diffusion, osmosis, active transport, carrier and channel proteins and co transport.
These 5 sheets can be used as worsheets, revision cardsor just as help for struggling students. All of my students loved these....even the A students.
This ppt covers all aspects of the AQA syllabus for the Nitrogen Cycle.
It covers decomposition, ammonification, nitrogen fixation, nitrification, differences in normal soil and water logged soil, finishing with leaching and eutrophication.
The 3 pages of nitrogen cycle questions can be used as a starter, plenary or a homework. I have used as quick revision. (Answers are included)
The help sheet shows a typical revision card for students which you can show and either use, or get them to make one of their own.
This is an 13 slide power point covering the aspects of photosynthesis.
Slides cover chloroplast structure, pigments, light absorption, Light dependent, phosphorylation/chemiosmosis, light independent cycles and finishes with carbon numbers of the calvin cycle.
The workbook can be used with the ppt or used as a homework task, plenary, starter or as a revision tool.

From cell structure to immunity, these essential PowerPoint presentations from TES Gold Author Jacqueline Byers will engage and inspire AS-level biology students.
This power point was made specifically for my Foundation & GCSE Double Award students and only covers that strand of the specification.
It is colourful, has pictures and easy to follow key points. An excellent class resource to show the class and for them to make appropriate notes in their exercise books.
A worksheet which can be used as a plenary sheet or to set as a homework.

This is a 9 slide power point on Respiration.
I use this with my Foundation & GCSE Double award class as a class presentation and as a starter for my Triple Group. With Triple groups you will only need to include the chemical equation for respiration and go into more detail with respect to ATP, which is not required for double award.
It includes aerobic and anaerobic respiration, differences between the two, the word equations, release of energy (ATP), oxygen debt and RQ quotient.

This is a power point explaining all of the key terms related to ecosystems with exam terminology and great pictures and diagrams. I uploaded this onto my school system as a homework to test students on all of the key terms and what they mean. I have also used a plenary to lessons and as revision at the end of the unit.
Also, found this really helpful with GCSE foundation/SEN groups; as the term are easily read and the pictures are bright and eye catching.
The work sheet has every key word written and students just fill in the definitions. They can then stick the sheet in the front of their books.
The second worksheet is for a class activity, or a home work and sets students tasks to complete on ecosystems, predator - prey relationships, etc.
The following terms are stated: classification (artificial and natural), evolutionary trees, binomial system (genus & species), habitat, ecosystem, producer, consumer, pyramid of numbers, biomass , predator, prey, equation foe energy transfer in food chains, energy loss through food chains, parasites, mutualism, interspecific and intraspecific relationships, adaptations (specialists, generalists, extremophiles, anatomical and behavioural adaptations).
You have two power points covering all aspects of the GCSE Biology syllabus covering the Carbon and Nitrogen Cycles. They are aimed at Higher Tier students but can be used with a good "intervention" group.
