I have been a secondary school science teacher for 9 years and have just started using more resources that pupils can use in their interactive notebooks. I have found these are going down very well with pupils and they are using them throughout the year to revise and recap. All my resources are tried and tested and are up to date with the new curriculum at KS3 and KS4.

Start/End of topic test/quiz for ecosystems - KS3

(0)
I use this with my year 7's to show progress and to plan for future lessons. At the start of the topic they do the test by just highlighting the answers they think, we quickly mark and make a note of what they get. At the end of the topic we do the test again to show how far they've come. It's really motivational for lower ability students as they might get lower marks but they usually always make progress which boosts confidence. See my other resources for similar tests.

Meiosis Foldable

Meiosis Foldable

(0)
A single sheet to create a meiosis folding step by step revision aid. You only need to print on one side to save on photocopying and pupils can either stick the steps on the inside or the outside depending on how they want to learn or revise it. This has gone down very well with my year 10 and 11's. I should note this does not include the actual phases as it is designed for the new 2016 GCSE specification.

An easy to follow presentation and worksheet allowing pupils to carry out the required practical on osmosis in potato chips. It includes a worksheet with two tables - one for results and one for making up solutions of salt. I have also included an order sheet for apparatus. The powerpoint takes pupils through the practical and has answers to all questions as well as example data and an example graph. This has worked really well with all of my classes right through year 9-year 11 and all abilities.

Reflex Arc Foldable - two versions/differentiated

Just one sheet of A4 to print out. Pupils cut along all the dotted lines and fold down the middle. They then stick the key words onto the outside to give the pathway of the reflex arc. It includes stimulus/receptor/sensory neurone/synapse/relay neurone/synapse/motor neurone/ effector/response. There are two versions, one has an example on the other side so they can put it into context. Pupils can also colour in the key words if they want to.
