These 5 worksheets were developed for low ability / SEN students to understand crude oil formation and hydrocarbons. There are story boards (formation of crude oil), and easy worksheets with "fill in the gaps" . These worked brilliantly with my low ability BTec group, but I also used them as starters and plenarys for my Foundation GCSE Chemistry group. Fun and easy to follow and complete. Many thanks for looking at my resources. Please leave feedback or follow me if you like them

Easy to follow text, bright colourful pictures and diagrams. Slides include the following: human population graph (why increase and decrease over the centuries), pollution caused with full explanations of Acid rain, Global warming and Ozone depletion, human impact on our environment and how it can be seen in water quality and air quality, indicator species discussed and how they are used to carry out checks on pollution, finishing with the advantages and disadvantages for the two types of pollution technology.

This ppt covers the AQA CoreBiology syllabus for fighting disease. It covers pathogens (bacteria & viruses), antigens, immune response (antibodies / anti toxins), growing bacteria, antibiotic resistance, vaccinations and antiseptics (semmelweiss). Plus 3 w/sheets.- story board for semmelweis, gap fill in for fighting diseases, an extension sheet for higher ability students and finally a test which can be set as a test, a home work, revision or even class activity.

These 14 work sheets cover the following part of the F215 OCR Biology A2 syllabus. The sheets can be used as starters, plenary at the end of the unit or for revision purposes. The sheets cover the following: Biofermenter structure and uses Batch and continuous processes Primary and Secondary metabolites (Insulin and penicillin included) Typical microorganism growth curve with diagrams and students to fill in phases.
