A revision booklet i made with the help of a colleague for the OCR Gateway Science GCSE new specification 2012. I made it to provide students with a way of revising 6 Mark questions. These booklets definitely improved my students abilities to answer the 6-mark questions sucessfully. When i made the booklets I also added other questions and worksheets to support their learning. Please provide feedback *P2 now added - kindly made by another TES member

A work booklet for the new OCR gateway scheme of work for the B1 unit - Understanding Organisms This workbook only covers the foundation content and accompanies activities in the classroom. The codebreaker code I had laminated and hand out during those lessons , as it is the same code throughout. I am currently using it with a low ability GCSE Y10 group and it is proving very helpful. ** I am currently making a C1 and P1 booklet - if anyone using this wants to suggest some improvements then please send them to me **

A group activity where they design an Eco -home trying to minimise heat loss. Covers convection conduction and radiation. Can be used with KS3 students or GCSE students.

Debate cards on the issues surrounding selectively bred chickens. I have also included the powerpoint i used for the lesson

This is an excel document I made that can be used to quickly provide written feedback and targets for an assessed piece of work. Simply input 8 different success criteria and 8 different target criteria and then use the excel document to generate a feedback sheet for individual pupils. I have left some example marking in to show people what the excel document does. Hopefully it will help people provide valuable feedback to pupils without it being massively time consuming. Please give feedback on this, as I am always trying to improve the resources I put on TES. *updated

A simple idea to give detailed feedback without having to write the same things over and over again. Simply enter the success criteria and some target criteria for an assessment task, plus some personalised comments and then select them from a drop down list in a handy template that can then be printed and given to students. I have included a recent example that I have used. If you do use it (especially for science) please email it to me (Time saving!) Thanks and enjoy (please give feedback - this is still developing and I keep making changes) David

Skills sheets with checklists and peer assessment criteria to help students draw line graphs, results tables and conduct effective research. I have only just made these this year and am still improving them so please add comments

A science licence I use for my year 7’s. It has a theory test, an actual licence (that looks like a driving licence) and i give them a practical test as well.

Its the first time i have used this idea, but they Y7s love it, and are keen to get the gold licences

I have made a number of these topic starter sheets that the students stick in their books. I photocopy them on one sheet (2 sided).

It has really helped my KS3 classes track their progress as they can return to this sheet throughout the topic to re-assess their knowledge

A group activity that covers instinctive behaviour and imprinting, by looking at the plight of breeding turtles on an Island. Working in groups, students have to come up with a plan to help the Turtle population whilst not upsetting a number of different people on the Island. I normally run this activity after covering turtle instinctive behaviours and the threats against them. I.e. heading towards bright lights - and hotel / road lights The island diagram has loads of issues on it, and the students normally find something that I didnt even think of when drawing it.
