KS3 and KS4 generic assessment template
Can use for any subject to structure an assessment for KS3 (A5) or KS4 (A4).
Fill out the main box in the middle with a variety of questions (5 marks for KS3 and 10 marks for KS4 - can change) and get students to identify whether it is peer, self or teacher assessed.
Space for target, GRAFT, DIRT at bottom.
Reproduction in plants KS3
Lesson on reproduction in plants at KS3 level.
Includes questions for a YouTube video in printable format.
Starter and plenary included.
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.
Flipped learning homework template
The first sheet has space for 10 questions based on the lesson just taught on the left and space for summaries of the key ideas on the right.
The second sheet (the back sheet if copied front to back) has space on the left to write a link to a YouTube video and space for notes with suggested styles of note taking at the bottom. The same is laid out on the right for a website link.
My A-Level students really liked the structure for keeping up to date with notes and preparation for the next lesson but could be used or adapted for KS3 and KS4.
It can be taken in the following lesson and/or self assessed as the starter giving you a chance to go around and check completion.
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.
Quotes from famous scientists (mostly)
To be used on a quote / inspirational quotes display or as a tutor / assembly resource.
Ten slides including black and white photo, brief biography (name, date, job) and quote for:
Richard Feynman
Carl Sagan
Neil DeGrasse Tyson
Dalai Lama
Aristotle
Marie Curie
Albert Einstein
Bill Nye
Stephen Hawking
Christopher Hitchens
Can print on coloured paper or keep black and white.
Activity for any Science video
Use this sheet to focus students through a video of any length and give a chance of assessment.
While watching the video students come up with 10 (or more if you add rows) questions and write the answers on the back.
After watching, they swap and answer each others quizzes, hand them back and get them marked. There is space for feedback as well.
I never let students watch videos without a purpose and as this is generic it can be kept behind the desk as a back up.
Emoji assessment task
Student select, draw and describe (with possible sentence starters and endings) which emoji sums up how they feel about the task they have just completed.
Can be added onto any task and adapted to include add any criteria.
Printable version on separate slide for slower writers / lower abilities.
Rates of reaction - task
Self contained task which:
Tests knowledge of the required practicals
Graph drawing skills (with self assessable mark scheme)
Descriptions, explanations and extension questions
All tasks have marking criteria with scores
Three slides that are easy to print off and write on
Fourth slide includes all answers to mark-able features.
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!
