Roadmap to show the year overview in Science Y8 following CIE Checkpoint. I use it as a poster so that students can follow the scheme of work for the school year in a simplistic way. The traffic lights (end of unit tests) show the unit number with a colour code depending on the science. I have included a printable version and an editable version so that it can be tailored to fit other textbooks. Feedback would be very appreciated as I would like it to be useful for my students so if you find something wrong or missing do let me know.

Editable power point to fill with tips for students. This one gives tips for passing AS Biology.

This power point shows some basic activities to be done with the app iCircuit. It is a great opportunity for KS3 science students as the can build easily parallel and series circuits and then some more complex ones with more components.
