These cards can help students to understand the difference between intensive and organic farming, as well as the advantages and disadvantages of each. Given these cards, students can sort the cards into their various categories. An extension activity for students would be tasking them to independently research each of these advantages and disadvantages for each side and to build up a debate argument for and against each activity. I find this activity most useful for Year 11, 12 and 13 learners.

This card sort incorporates the key words and definitions from the Year 7 Solar System and Planets section. Use the cards as a starter activity, a plenary activity, or all together with other resources at the end of the year to do revision sessions. I particularly enjoy this resource because after 3 uses, most students can get the cards sorted quite quickly and in only a few minutes. Have fun!

This resource gives step-by-step instructions of how to calculate the percentage composition of molecules. There are also a few exercises students can try themselves. I hope this helps you! This is part three of the four important Chemistry Calculations

Have you ever tried to think of equations for your students to practice balancing equations on, but you've just run out of ideas? Here are a full 4 pages of equations that you can give them to balance, including a bit of space for calculations. You can use this resource as a starter, as the main part of your lesson or as the plenary. Copy this on to a double sided A3 sheet to make it easier; then they're all on a single page. BETTER YET: You get the answers too - which means you don't have to work out all the answers to the worksheet yourself. Have fun!

This is a game that helps students remember the 7 Life processes, and what letter stands for and means in terms of function in the organism.. This can be used as a quick starter activity, or just pop one or two on a slide at the start or end of a lesson for a bit of a wrap up/recap of the processes. This is a game for 2 - 7 players. Each of the 7 life processes are on a card accompanied by a question. The instructions for the game are as follows: To play the ‘I am’ game, you need 7 or less players, each of whom receive a card (or more than 1 card). Player 1 will start and ask the question on their card. Another player will answer the question using the bold answer on the top of their card; the group will decide if the answer is correct, and then that player will read their question out. Repeat until all questions and answers are read out. Have fun!

This is a great game that matches questions about Cell, Organs, and Organ systems to their answers-which are on other cards. Great for end of topic quizzes and for student's problem-solving skills. The photograph above shows what the resource will look like when the game is complete and the cards are properly assembled into their loop. This resource contains a pack of 30 cards, and is great for a class of 30 or less pupils. You can print the cards onto coloured paper and laminate them, you’ll only need 1 set per class. Each card has a question on the top and an unrelated answer at the bottom. The question at the top relates to an answer on a card elsewhere in the pack, and the answer on the bottom relates to a question elsewhere in the pack. This game is excellent because students need to be able to answer each question to be able to locate the answer on another card, and they need to understand and be able to work out what the question would be for a particular answer to locate the question. This is a subtle but effective way to teach students both content and exam technique: because the skill of knowing the answer in a test or quiz is never enough: they also need to be able to work out with what question the answer will be prompted. Have fun!

This is a fantastic resource to round up the Year 7 Human Reproduction topic. The resource can either be used as Quiz questions to save a bit of time; or as a board game if you wanted the students to have a bit more fun. Use at the end of the topic and combine with other Quiz cards at the end of the Year for a full-year revision syllabus. The final page has the board for the game; this should be printed on to A3 paper. Instructions are included on the first card, as: "All players begin on the ‘Start’ square. Each player rolls dice to start and moves that number of squares. If landing on an instruction square (i.e. “miss a go”)-follow the instruction. If landing on a Q square, answer the question correctly to move the stated number of squares forward. If question answered incorrectly, stay where you are. First player to ‘End’ square who answers the final question correctly, wins." If you print the first 3 question pages onto coloured paper and laminate, this will make them easy to combine with different colours for the end of year revision session to make them easier to sort back into topic sets afterwards. Have fun!

This resource gives step-by-step instructions of how to calculate empirical formula of molecules. There are also a few exercises students can try themselves, and just so that you don't have to, I have included the answers too. I hope this helps you!

This is a card sort designed for Year 7s and 8s for the Habitat, Environment and Food Chains topics in KS3. The card sort has the keyword on the left hand side and the definition on the right hand side. Possible variations for uses of these cards: -Group work: given the cards, separated, and they need to sort as a group. -Pair work: Use the keywords as a question for an opponent. -Give each student a card sort as a homework/classwork activity. -Give each student the page of cards to fold and stick the words back to back to make keywords to learn for revision. -Choose a few as a starter activity, jumble them up, and pop onto a slide for the beginning of a lesson -Any other use you can think of!

Finally! A card sort that helps students to put the different parts of the circulatory system through which blood flows around the body in the correct order. You can use this in one of two ways - 1. Students can put the parts in order starting at vena cava and sequencing all the parts through which blood flows around the body. OR 2. Students can sort the cards into two groups, those parts which carry 'oxygenated blood' and those which carry 'deoxygenated blood'. I use these cards from Year 7 all the way to Year 13. The cards come with a set of instructions: pin these to the cards and just let students decide which activity they want to do; more able will do both activities, less able will be able to do activity 2.

This resource contains revision questions for Year 7, 8 &9 Biology. This will help your students to revise for Cells, Tissues, Microorganisms, Organs, Systems, Photosynthesis, Plants, Animals, etc. You can use these cards in a multitude of different ways. • As starter and plenary questions within lessons. • Print the three pages and cut them up as a card sort. • Cut up only the answer cards and leave the ‘question’ cards as strips of questions. • Fold the questions and answers so they are back to back, then you will have either a revision quiz game, or a solo revision game, depending how many students you have. Have fun!

These revision mats were designed to summarise the first chapter of each of the new Biology, Chemistry and Physics units. Each sheet also includes revision and summary information on two core practicals that fall within the unit. They do include the details of which Pearson Edexcel textbook page numbers each little section refers to for reference if the student wishes to go back and recap. They also include some exam-style questions. Our students responded really well to these: basically I summarise the pages, we give them out, the students fill them in a memorise the pages, and then they do pretty ace in their assessment as the assessments now are about knowing the content backwards (the revision mat) and then because they know the content, application within the assessment is far easier no matter what question is asked. I hope they help.

This is a summary sheet I made for my students using the Pearson iGCSE Student book: the questions in each box inspire students to summarise the work that they need to know for this section. I am gradually adding the other Chapters as I go along, including the Biology and Physics chapters. I would print this A3 sheet double sided. It would also be good to pop it onto a coloured sheet, then you can make each subject (Bio, Chem, Phys) a different colour to easily refer to them in class.

This is a bundle of A3 summary sheets I made for my students using the Pearson iGCSE Student book: the questions in each box inspire students to summarise the work that they need to know for this section. THis resource includes the first two chapters of each of the Biology (Section A: Life Processes and The Variety of Living Organisms) and Chemistry (Section A: Kinetic Theory, Diffusion, Atomic Structure) topics. I am gradually adding the other Chapters as I go along. I would print each of these topics on an A3 sheet double sided, so that the same topic is on a double-sided sheet. It would also be good to pop each double sided-sheet onto a coloured A3 sheet, then you can make each topic (Bio/Chem) a different colour to easily refer to them in class.

I know how frustrating and time consuming it is to try to find resources for your students. I have downloaded all the Chemistry Sample Papers and Exam papers issued by AQA for the 9-1 Papers along with their markschemes and placed them on TES for you. I have no copyright on these and they are freely available elsewhere, as well as through AQA as individual downloads that you need to save one by one, I just felt it easier to put them all in one place for you, as a single download. With sensible names. I will keep updating this download as the years go by for you. If you would like other resources, please do check out my shop. x
