A presentation on the three types of Pollution ideal for B1 AQA

Presentation on Pollution Indicators

I use the AQA specification to produce a basic fact sheet that we use to drill students for each paper in the basic facts. Once they have these they are confident to complete past papers. The language of the specification comes up on exams over and over. Blank student sheet with questions on and answer sheet for teachers is provided. Some students take home multiple copies and drill themselves over and over at home. This resource is for 2022 Biology FT Combined Science taking into account advanced information. Resource is 6 pages long and covers ALL Paper 2 FT Biol facts required
