Unit 7 - Biomechanics - Learning Aim A - Linear Motion
Powerpoint & tasks used with Y12 students. Currently working on Learning Aim’s B & C.
Created for Edexcel GCSE (New spec) - Component 2: Topic 1 - Health, fitness and well-being.
Includes 25 cards and answers. Question on the right, the answer is on the left of a different card. Excellent way of engaging all students in a revision activity.
Additional slides can be added in to create more questions. I have also produced a set for topic 2 and 3 from component 1.
I created this lesson using last years assessment to help my students understand how to answer questions & get them used to understanding what questions are asking for.
The lesson looks at 3 questions from component 1 - on muscle actions, heart rate and antagonistic muscle pairs.
Includes printable slides to use as support in lesson. The powerpoint breaks down the question & includes model answers & mark schemes to self assess!
I have also created a similar lesson for component 2!
Created for Edexcel GCSE PE (New Spec 2016)
I used this lesson as a practical way of teaching the theory of how deoxygenated blood becomes oxygenated. I had previously taught a lesson on this so the students had a prior understanding of the heart & blood vessles, and used this as a consolidation lesson / to address misconceptions.
The starter recaps previous learning to label the features of the heart. The rest of the lesson students work in small groups following the journey that blood takes around the body. I did this in the sports hall as there was more space available!
Worksheet included to give some writing tasks to support the lesson. Students really enjoyed the lesson!
GCSE PE (Edexcel 2016 Spec) Loop cards revision activity bundle - All topics
Contains loop cards for all 6 topics across the Edexcel GCSE PE (2016 Spec). Each set are a different color. Includes questions and answers to help with revision lessons.
Really good response from students who find them an enjoyable and engaging starter activity to revision lessons.
Each topic also sold individually (£3)
Created to support students with long answer (9 mark) questions in assessments. Question based on muscle fibers for a 5000m runner!
I used a similar lesson to help them write developed statements on shorter responses which they found really useful (lesson resources available - writing developed statements). This lesson focuses on building those same writing skills to 9 mark questions to help them write extended answers with more success.
Lots of my students either wrote lots of simple statements, which restricts them to only 3 marks. Or they wrote the explanation / analysis without the statements / definitions first. This lesson worked really well to support them in writing more concise, and successful answers.
Format of the lesson is to give them the 9 mark question first, I then did some general revision / Q&A / discussion on different topics as a break between answers, and then got them to re-write their answers after discussing how to answer it with more success. Finishing off with a peer assessment task to compare answers.
I then asked them to look back through other 9 mark questions we have done, choose one and have a go using the same structure!
Created for Edexcel GCSE PE (2016 Spec) to support students with 4-6 mark questions in assessment.
Supports students with a framework to write extended answers with greater success in gaining marks - this can link to 9 mark questions, i used this lesson to embed the skills of how to answer shorter questions first.
Questions focused around skeletal system / cardiovascular system (Component 1)
Key words flash cards created to support my GCSE PE group with their revision (Edexcel 2016 spec)
Includes 152 key words with definitions! Created on powerpoint - one slide containing 6 key words, the following slides with the 6 definitions.
This can either be used as flash cards with key words on one side, with the definition on the other. (Print double sided) OR print on individual sheets and use as a matching exercise to pair up each key word with its definition.
*If printing double sided - check printer settings to ensure the correct definition and keyword are paired up.
Key words & definitions taken from the Pearson Edexcel GCSE 9-1 Physical Education 2nd Ed textbook (2016).

My group enjoyed being able to still complete some revision at home in the format of a normal lesson. Students only need a pen & paper to complete the work so it is easily accesible & requires no handouts to be provided before students are isolating.
This is an excel spreadsheet which I have developed to monitor progress of the GCSE PE cohort & also speed up a lot of data analysis work!
Spreadsheet includes:
Overview tab which demonstrates progress over time & performance in all 6 assessments.
Individual assessment tabs to show marks scored in each question.
Staff need to update the tracker by inputting individual question marks into the correct assessment tab - the total score, % and WAG are automatically generated, as well as the overview tab at the front. Each question is RAG rated to show which questions need to be revised!
PPT instructions file included.
Includes 6 end of topic assessments & mark schemes. *Note that the tracker is set up to be used alongside these assessments - using different assessments will require the exam tabs to be amended.
