Ppt covering how the growth of microbes can be prevented: the difference between disinfectants & antiseptics and practical using different strengths of disinfectant to see effect on growth of bacteria on agar plates.

Used for a revision lesson before end of unit test on Reproduction - print out the three slides onto card and then cut out - in teams students have to match the sides of the triangles together to make one giant triangle

These were revision aids produced for our Yr 8 Chemical Models unit that covers Elements, Mixtures and Compounds, Metal reactions, displacement reactions and corrosion

This ppt was used for a mixed Yr 7 class for a double lesson. Covers parts of eye and function, long/short sightedness and eye dissection - finishes off with some optical illusions. Assessment opportunities included. SEN sheet used as starter with Downs syndrome student

This is a ppt used to introduce drugs - students were then put into five groups and each given one of the drug information posters (adapted from a resource on TES - thank you!) to carry out marketplace activity. Worked very well with students supporting/teaching each other with very little need for input from teacher - ideal!!

This lesson was taught at the end of a topic on rocks and weathering. The Rock cycle was briefly talked about then students were given task sheet and image on Slide 10 of ppt to use in order to construct a comic strip of the life of Robbie the Rock - the students really got into this and produced some very funny cartons - all showed really good comprehension of cycle at the end with hardly any teacher input! Ideal!!

These are resources I put together for a Separating Mixtures sow - it covers atoms, elements and compounds too as an introduction to what a mixture is. Includes lots of opportunity for assessment and practical activities.

Used with mixed Yr 7 group as first lesson introducing bunsen burners - was a double lesson. Opportunity for teacher assessment and peer assessment (thank you to other TES contributers). Also SEN starter sheet used with Downs syndrome/v.low ability studenst

Ppt that covers deficiencies in our diets and also the consequences of eating too much of certain foods. Worksheet (from TES - thank you) that I have adapted and differentiated to account for large range of learners in my class

This ppt was used for a double lesson for a mixed Yr 7 group - contains information on parts of both animal and plant cells and then goes through some examples of specialised cells - has assessment opportunities as you go through to check progress

Ppt and worksheets used with a demo of the digestive system (bowl and masher for mouth & teeth; rubber glove stomach; tights for small intestine etc - see crib sheet attached). Worksheets differentiated to account for wide ability of learners within group

A4 sheet covering Energy types, transfers, fuels, fossil fuel formation, photosynthesis, production of electricity renewable energy and climate change - used as revision tool before unit test. Now including answer sheet.

Ppt and activities to help students the importance of evaluating scientific evidence using the MMR studies of Dr Wakefield and Honda. Lots of opportunity for assessment, group work etc. Some resources have been adapted from Upd8 - the news story used in the starter activity is differentiated for lower/higher ability students - this lesson kept a very difficult yr 10 all on task!

All you need for a revision lesson on conduction, convection and radiation. Includes mindmap with gaps to fill in for students, ppt to use during lesson that includes extra assessment opportunities, a quiz, a crossword and some exam questions (and answers) to practice with

Powerpoint that goes through weathering - opportunities to get children to work out the three types with the use of a selection of photos - I got children to talk in pairs to come up with an explanation of how each set of photos could result in rocks being broken down - worked very well. Differentiated worksheets to sum up each process.

Everything you need to revise Cells for end of KS3 exams - I stick the specialised cell sheets around room and allow students to extract necessary information to fill in on their sheets - assessment opportunities included on ppt

I teach this lesson after an introduction to animal/plant and specialised cells. I found that some classes always struggled with MRS GREN so I came up with a set of different activities to help them work out the 7 processes themselves. I laminated the instruction cards and placed them round lab with the various bits of equipment. Each student then was given one of the differentiated practical ws (SQUID = high, CRAB = mid, and STARFISH = low). The students then went round the room and completed each activity and writing the relevant word on their ws. We then went through answers & ppt in class to get a correct list of MRS GREN. Students then got into their ability groups and used MRS GREN to work out if various objects were living or not - group task sheet. This worked extremely well and I've found that students have a much better grasp and retention of this topic after this active lesson compared to me just talking.

This is a ppt that I use to teach specialised cells - I stick the info sheets round the room and the students have to go round and collect information to complete their sheets - these are differentiated to allow for the wide ability range in the class
