Forms quizzes for AQA Biology - Biological molecules topic
Templates for you to duplicate and use through Forms or set through Teams.
Great for flipped learning from September - mostly self marking, just have to give feedback for longer answer questions.
Each one follows the general format of:
Upload your notes on Carbohydrates from your text books and the link below:
WEBLINK
Answer the multiple choice questions that follow the video,
Answer the longer question at the end,
Write a target based on the task.
You will have to change the Theme as it is our schools logo.
Have been really useful during lock down and could be good to share - I think I have included the right links to let you use these correctly. Let me know if there are any issues.
If you haven’t used Forms through Teams before you have to set the task, then go into the Teams version of that “quiz” and reset the File upload question so that it creates a SharePoint area to save it. If that makes no sense, maybe replace the File upload questions with something like “Have you spent 20 minutes + making notes?” and a Yes or No tick box question.

A Level Biology - Immunity - Past paper assessment - Very structured!
Three questions on the topic of particle theory (AQA - A Level Biology - Immunity) that are on a nicely laid out sheet for completion and sticking into books. Includes self assessment at the bottom to allow them to choose which topic requires attention based on their score, not just their feelings towards it.
The next slide has the answers in the wrong order so they actually have to read them not just copy them!
Included is a blank version you could use for other topics.
[image is just an example of others I have done]
B2 Organisation - Past paper assessment - Very structured!
Three questions on the topic of Organisation (AQA - Physics - B2) that are on a nicely laid out sheet for completion and sticking into books. Includes self assessment at the bottom to allow them to choose which topic requires attention based on their score, not just their feelings towards it.
The next slide has the answers in the wrong order so they actually have to read them not just copy them!

Flipped HW - light dependent reactions of photosynthesis
First side:
10 short answer questions about the light dependent reactions of photosynthesis.
Space to write notes from the lessson.
Second side:
Links to YouTube video and website for further research into the next lesson (light independent reactions of photosynthesis) with space to make notes.
Useful for a regular and structured homework ensuring review and research is done from lesson to lesson.
My pupils really like the routine and know exactly what to do - it is manageable too but i tell them its a minimum.
KS3 - Differentiated Respirtatory System
Lesson on the respiratory system with two differentiated main tasks.
Word search starter with task to write down words they don’t understand.
Link to great animation website focused on the alveoli for discussion.
Task 1: Creating a resource about alveoli split into two options. One lower on Blooms, one requiring them to use a text book (you have to provide this…) or website.
Extension for task at bottom of slide.
True / False task with answers.
Task 2: Journey of an oxygen molecule. Two options again, one listing and labeling. The other more descriptive and creative.
Another extension at bottom of slide.
Plenary: 3.2.1. Task (list three… Name two… What one… etc.) focused on lesson.
A-Level Biology - All HW for Mass transport topic - Flipped style
Good structure for flipped learning, especially for beginners and the kids really liked the consistency, not just “research the next lesson”.
Set of linking homeworks for the mass transport topic in the AQA A-Level Biology course.
Structure is 10 short answer questions on a lesson on the left. Then a suggested YouTube link (and description) and Website link (and description) for further research about the next lesson.
Includes:
Two blank templates to use for the future
The first name is what the questions are about and the second is what the research is on:
Tissue fluid / Haemoglobin
Haemoglobin / Oxygen dissociation curves
Oxygen dissociation curves / Xylem and Phloem
Xylem and Phloem / Mass Flow Hypothesis
Mass Flow Hypothesis / Transpiration
Transpiration / Limiting water loss
Revision and essay guidance for AS Biology topic - Pathogens and Immunity
Lesson structure at the beginning to explain what will be covered:
