This lesson gets students up and about and promotes independent learning. Posters with useful information are laid out around the room, outside, in the corridors. Students each have a workbook/worksheet to take around with them to carry out the task. On pages 2 and 4 of the worksheet, miniplenary AfL activities are included to consolidate their learning. Plenary draw an elbow joint activity consolidates learning of joint components. Proposed lesson plan is provided. Starter Activity - 10 mins Activity length - 30 mins Dissection Demonstration - 10 mins Plenary - 10 mins

These were created in response to a CPD session on improving the use of literacy across all subjects. Designed specifically for science using the key words that students may face when answering questions or writing scientifically.

This resource was designed for a lower ability year 7 class. The lesson is very active and very student led. Can be used outside! There is a suggested guide as to how to use the resource and I have included the master word file for you to make your own alterations. The ppt file table could be used as a plenary / mini-plenary / AfL.

A series of 4 lessons in one powerpoint using the Angry Birds as a Theme to the lessons. Fully interactive (students can select lesson from 'main screen'). Covers the topics of speed, acceleration, distance time and velocity time graphs.

I designed this resource in a lesson to help explain to bottom set Y11 that the Menstrual Cycle isn't linear as is depicted by most of the graphs we use to teach it. This is a linear graph that has been designed as a homework to allow students to practice graphing and interpreting data. Once assembled, this graph can be linked to itself to make it cylindrical so that the students can rotate it once the lines are plotted, to see that the menstrual cycle is continuous.

A template which can be used as an exit slip, designed to look like an instagram post. Space to draw what they have learnt from the lesson and room to write underneath too.

Slide one of the attached ppt allows you to print a working set of protein synthesis machinery for each student, or for groups of students. There are tRNA molecules, Amino Acids, a Ribosome, blank DNA and mRNA strands. The mRNA strands should feed into the Ribosome and the window of the ribosome displays exactly one codon at a time. If you would like to see examples of the resource being used, see the following link: https://twitter.com/edwardturner_/status/830079180419321860

This is customised graph paper to teach students about how to draw and label graphs properly. Boxes are provided adjacent to major axis segments to teach students to label axes on the segment lines and not in between as is so often the case. Large and Small grid line paper options

This is a more interactive way of introducing students to the Haber Process. Students watch the BBC video and answers the pre-defined questions. Students could have a minute to read questions before starting. You could differentiate this for Higher Ability by putting in economical considerations not mentioned in the video. I used this as a starter activity for my bottom set Year 10 OCR Chemistry B class.

This is a simple but effective pupil tracker created in Excel. When using stations or student-guided learning, it is easy to assess students' progress by logging their position. This allows you time to focus on those who are not progressing and allows you to differentiate accordingly. Good evidence to show progress to OFSTED through generation of graph of progress.

This document is set up for a quiz quiz trade activity. Questions are adjacent to their answers. I used this as a main activity for a lower set year 10 Chemistry class doing C2 OCR Gateway. Could also be used as a starter / plenary for upper set year 10 or top set year 9 extension.

This worksheet is designed to be completely self-contained. This in itself should allow students to discover ionic bonding themselves throughout the lesson. This allows the teacher to move around the classroom and assess students and advise on the go without lecturing to the class in such a boring way. Students can use their text books and periodic tables to help them with the tasks. Tasks are levelled in accordance with SOLO. There is an evaluation section at the end of the booklet so students can reflect on their learning.

This is a powerpoint which acts as a lesson plan template. Students will assess learning pre and post lesson. Starter activity relates to real-world issues and tests knowledge. Learning Objectives have been assessed by SOLO. Students use hand signals at the end of the lesson to show progress also. Potassium Permanganate experiment coupled with a levelled task stretches student understanding.

A quick summary board of several of the major topics covered in the OCR Gateway Science B C2 module for Foundation Tier. Students should fill in the blanks / equations. A nice and easy, quick self-assessment revision tool for students.

This collection of resources was used as a whole lesson to a bright set of year 9 pupils who were being introduced to competition. The lesson began with a model of competition and adaptation outside for students to interact with. The lesson then continued indoors where the ppt was used to assess their learning of the model. The fox posters were then laid out around the room, and students were provided with differentiated worksheets to go and collect the information and interpret data. NLS and NNS crosslinks in this lesson.

A selection of questions and answers to be used as a Quiz Quiz Trade activity to revise Topic 5 of the P1 unit for Edexcel GCSE. Questions should cover the majority of this topic. Includes questions for Foundation and Higher

A different way of getting to know some useful information about electrolysis. Designed to align with the Edexcel specification, pupils play a board game to discover information around electrolysis. Students are provided with the printed board game. They can create a dice at the beginning of the lesson. Questions are provided which can be altered for any tier or specification. It is intentional that there are only a few questions so that they are recycled during the game to ensure students have learnt the answers.

I created this APP to go with a scheme of work that we teach in year 8. I wanted to see what students had understood about variables and how to identify them. This task is a thought experiment, asking students to come up with an experiment and plan it without actually carrying it out. You could extend this and actually get them to collect data and analyse it.

Students analyse an investigation into Biomass and how it is formed. Students use numeracy skills to complete data entry and then use levelled assessment task to write a conclusion to the investigation. Gradecam can then be used as an instant feedback plenary to assess students' learning.

A complete resource pack which allows students to work independently to revise the core practicals for the Edexcel Biology 9-1 Paper 1.

Posters to perhaps be used on a learning walk or student self learning activity. Place them around the room or in corridors to get your students up and keep them active. I got my students to write the stages in their books and evaluate the purpose and importance of each stage.
