"Everything should be made as simple as possible, but not simpler"-Albert Einstein. These wise words from the worl'd greatest physicist has long inspired my lesson plans, ensuring that concepts are made as simple as possible without dumbing down. All paid for lessons follow the same design, all lessons are clearly differentiated, with plenty of peer assessment and self assessment to reduce teacher workload and are fun and engaging for student and teacher alike.

I have these colourful posters displayed randomly around my room, i print them double sided and alternate them every fortnight. They are pictures taken from the I love science group on Facebook filled with the newest advances in science to help engage students and to allow students to see how what they are learning in the classroom can change the way our world works. There are a mixture of Chemistry, Biology, Physics and Engineering.

CSI Challenge: Blood Drops, ISA preparation.

This was designed as an end of year, fun but also useful lesson. Each student was given a booklet to work through in pairs, all they needed was some fake blood (which I made by mixing red and brown paint with water), a pipette a metre ruler and a few sheets of A3 paper. After the practical there are some ISA style questions, I told my year 9s we were going to be using this as an indicator for where to start with them during next year's ISA lessons.
