This is a great worksheet for GCSE students and covers the basics of cell structure and function. I've included a pdf and a word doc version. It includes True/False questions, filling in the blanks, box matching and word choosing activities. Use this sheet as a quick starter, plenary or homework. Make sure you ask your kids to think of reasons behind the answers (especially the True/False questions). Get groups to write explanations for each answer to question 1 as a follow up activity (or as a good extension activity for students who finish early).

This quick test/worksheet covers the pharmaceutical products testing section of IBDP Chemistry Option D (FE 2016). Questions include: 1. Testing drugs on animals and cell cultures tells us three things. What are they? 2. What does LD50 mean? There's also a flow chart to fill in (the docx file has the answers (just remove the boxes).

This is the perfect starter, plenary or homework for any advanced biology lesson that introduces students to cellular respiration. This resource is suitable for 'A' - Level and IBDP students. This quick quiz (with answers) covers the following: 1. The differences between reduction and oxidation (essential prior knowledge for any student hoping to learn about respiration) 2. The four main stages of glycolysis There is also a handy acronym at the end that helps students to remember the four stages of glycolysis

The resource is ideal for GCSE or IGCSE students, and is designed to act as a fun way for the students to do the following: 1. Learn how to describe each part of their timetable (e.g. "On Monday lesson 1 I have Science") 2. Learn how to ask which lesson their partner has. For example, learning how to say “which lessons do you have on a Thursday?” Both students in the role play are given a timetable, with some blank spaces missing. Each student must describe their timetable to their partner, and fill in the blank spaces. Syllabus references: CIE IGCSE German: Area A2 (School routine). Edexcel GCSE German: Section One (High Frequency Language): Numbers, Time experessions, Times of the day; Days of the week Section Two (Topic Specific Language): Daily life. What school is like. Other IGCSE and GCSE exam boards also require knowledge and understanding of this topic.

After teaching and tutoring thousands of chemistry students over the years, I've found that the topic of ions tends to cause tremendous confusion (and is generally poorly understood).This is one of those fundamental topics that must be understood properly if students are going to learn about balancing equations, stoichiometry and advanced level chemistry later in in school. I created this resource booklet as a very clear way for students to understand the following: • What the period and group numbers tell us about the structure of an atom • What anions and cations are • How to use the group number of an element to figure out what kind of ion it will form Complete with full colour images, activities and answers; this booklet finally offers a clear and comprehensive explanation of this fundamental topic in chemistry. At the end there is also a link to a website, where students can take this topic to the next level and learn about ionic bonding and the formulae of ionic compounds. I've set the price at 2 pounds because this resource took a lot of time to create, and is of a very high quality.

The role of chlorophyll 2. The photolysis of water 3. The exchange of various (oxygen and carbon dioxide) 4. The role that hydrogen plays after photolysis is completed 5. Some chloroplast structure vocabulary (grana and stoma)

This is the fourth chapter in my book, and describes the secrets you need to know if you want to teach advanced learners (GCSE and above) effectively.
