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.

Relevant for all new 2016 GCSE specification in cell biology Teach pupils the function of nucleus, ribosomes, mitochondria, membrane, cell wall, chloroplasts, vacuole in eukaryotes and plasmids in prokaryotes. Print the laminate sheet double sided and laminate for students to use as reference. Print the foldable double sided and fold into three. Cut along the dotted lines to provide flaps for animal, plant and bacterial cells and also flaps for the organelles. Pupils then use these to test each other and learn the parts of the cell. PowerPoint then goes through each structure. Crossword and word search for organelles - both with 3 versions differentiated can be used as plenary and there is tick list to check understanding.

The PowerPoint goes through images taken from an electron microscope. It then shows the differences between an electron and lit microscope. For this there is a card sort with the answers on the PowerPoint. It then goes through how to work out magnification and there is a worksheet on working out magnification and actual size. Answers are in the PowerPoint. Pupils have loved this, especially the images at the start and the card sort.

Everything you need to a whole lesson on the heart. Designed for the new AQA GCSE 1-9 spec. Laminate the posters, print of the diagrams and puzzles and leave the pupils to it - very independent lesson that lets you work with needy pupils 1 on 1. Print the heart poster slides in colour and laminate for one between two. Go through the presentation on heart structure, double circulator system, pacemaker cells and vessels. Leave the "to do list" on the board and give pupils the laminated posters and diagrams of the vessels, heart and pacemaker location. Also pupils can make a heart with tabs that open up by cutting out the blank heart and sticking the tabs down. There is then a differentiated crossword and word search to use as a plenary.

An A4 sheet to print in colour and laminate - it basically contains all the information from the specification on bacterial, viral, protist and fungal diseases. Then give each pupil an A4 foldable sheet. They cut out both boxes, write key points under the flaps and on the second square and then stick the flaps onto the second square. Can then be used for revision and testing each other. Good for all abilities.

A tick sheet for each topic of the new AQA GCSE Biology 2016 specification with key words at the bottom. I print them of at the end of each lesson or topic and the kids use them to check their progress.

Digestive System and Enzymes - WHOLE LESSON AQA New 2016 GCSE Biology

(0)
Everything you need for the Human Digestion System - very independent lesson with plenty of resources, starter and plenaries. Not complicated at all and can be used at all levels. Start by printing out an A2 coloured digestive system poster found on the powerpoint - run a poster challenge where pupils are put into groups and take it in turns to look at the poster outside of the room for 30 second - the whole team have to try and recreate the poster in a certain time - prize for the winner. The give the pupils the worksheet - have the posters for the digestive system printed and laminated around the room OR upload the powerpoint to iPads or laptops - pupils use these to condense the information on the Digestive System Worksheet. Then give pupils the enzyme foldable and leave the slide of chemicals in the digestive system on the board - they use this to create a foldable for Protease, Lipase, Carbohydrase, bile and hydrochloric acid. As a plenary pupils can do word search and/or crossword which are differentiated. Then they can go through the tick list for the topic to review their learning. Ideas for plenaries are also on the powerpoint. Also a results table for the required practical. I have done this lesson with all of my GCSE classes and they loved all of the activities. All printed and laminated resources can be saved and used for years to come!
