This resource is an online escape room covering some of the main topics studied at GCSE . It is a great retrieval activity and is great for the students to get know each other in your class.
When you purchase the resource you will be given a link to the website. All the clues are submitted into the google form.
Topics covered include:
Osmosis
Meiosis
Respiratory system
Plant transport system
Natural selection
Nervous system
Protein synthesis
Students can use their textbook/notes to search for the answers if they get stuck and there is a teacher walkthrough/answer sheet.
The activity takes around 45-50 minutes.
You do not need a google account to access the site and no data is taken from the students.
An assessment task which combines students knowledge of material studied over the two year course.
Protein synthesis
Protein Modification
Hormones and their function
Transcription factors
This activity is suitable for an assessment; build up class notes; retrieval practice and revision.
Combining topics gives students access to the “bigger picture” and has been shown to be effective in helping students make links with exam questions.
Students recall the names of the symbols in the laboratory and search for the term in the wordsearch.
Suitable for retrieval practice or revision of the topic.
Starter or plenary.
Answer sheet included
A pdf worksheet which supports students learn the excretion and function of the kidney. Students label the diagram and describe the function of the parts in the table.

Practical write up support sheets.
Students focus on planning, results, conclusion and evaluating with these prompts. Introducing terms like dependent/independent variable; control variable and anomalous results.
Students are shown how to set up results tables and graphs.
There are prompt questions for the conclusion and evaluation.
These sheets help develop student´s confidence when planning and writing up scientific investigations.
In this practical, students will investigate the effect of light intensity on the rate of photosynthesis in pondweed or another suitable aquatic plant. The oxygen is collected and measured to allow a calculation of the rate of photosynthesis. Light intensity is varied by moving a lamp closer to the plant.
The worksheet contains equipment, method, table of results, graph and focused questions.
This activity is designed to promote independent learning, allowing teacher to circulate room and support students who need guidance.
These student worksheets provides support for the core practical on osmosis in potato strips. In the osmosis practical, students collect results for one potato strip in each solution but I would recommend collating results and allowing students to calculate the mean values if they have time.
Students perform the experiment and record their results in table and graph provided. They need to calculate the percentage change in mass.
Students write a conclusion to explain what their results show. Students use graph to estimate the salt concentration inside the cells.
Students perform a simple distillation procedure. There is a method and diagram to help them set up the equipment. Students boil the ink mixture and collect the distillate. They will then write a description of what has happened using the keywords.
This experiment should be performed after students have some knowledge of distillation.
The aim of this investigation is to determine the optimum pH on the rate of digestion of starch by amylase. Students will be provided with different pH solutions (pH4 - 7) to determine which is the optimum pH.
The worksheet includes the complete set of instructions for the experiment and the equipment. Students collect their results, plot a line graph and draw a conclusion. There are prompt questions to ensure they analyze their results.
2 worksheets to support student’s observation of cheek and onion cells.
Includes apparatus, method, observations and questions to prompt understanding of the activity.
Practical activity in the lab.
Today´s research shows that retrieval of memory produces a better long-term retention of material than simple restudy of material (rereading notes or highlighting information). For this reason, I have been using it in my classroom to help my students perform better in examinations (I teach A level and GCSE classes).
Retrieval practice helps my students recall information they have learned, but more importantly, it highlights material that they have not learned well or have not understood.
Retrieval practice is easy to implement in the classroom, and it can be presented in many forms from a simple question and answer session, a quiz or a brain dump.
I have spent the last two years working on different resources so students are not bored with the activity. It also sets a bit more of a challenge.
When using these resources, I frequently use them as again a month or two after completing a topic as this spacing ensures material is not being “forgotten”. My students see the benefit of this, especially as we have exams in January and May so it keeps the content fresh.
Resources in this pack:
Links activity - students must find a connection between the two words in a grid. This isn´t always easy to do and it helps students really think about the topic they are studying.
Total recall - is similar to a brain dump but the page is divided into sections with keywords to focus students knowledge recall.
Wordsearch - students search for words related to the topic they have studied. The number of words is given but not the word itself. Once students find the word, they must define it.
If you like my product, I would appreciate a review. Thank you!
Students can label the worksheet of the structure of the leaf that students can label independently or with teacher guidance. The diagram can be colored to highlight different tissues.

Resources in this pack:
Cops vs Robber - one of my favourites. Students write down what they remember about a topic (brain dump) in the cops section. They can then write down facts stolen from a neighbour in the robber section. This activity is great for weaker students who cannot remember a lot of facts but also helps highlight what they need to now focus on.
Wordsearch - students search for words related to the topic they have studied. The number of words is given but not the word itself. Once students find the word, they must define it.
