At the present time I am Head of Science at an independent Prep School. Teaching KS3 Science so the majority of resources are KS3. I teach several year groups in mixed ability sets so most of my resource included differentiated resources to enable all students to engage whatever their ability level. In previous job taught AQA Triple Science so a selection of resources for teaching these concepts also can be found here.

This was used as an introductory lesson on a cross curricular day linking science to the holocaust.

I used this with both Yr 7 and Yr 6 in the week before their end of year exams. In end of unit tests lots of pupils were missing marks as they were not giving enough detail to gain full marks - I used this ppt and attached questions to try and rectify this and to calm their exam nerves!
