Heart and lung dissection
Burning Candles
Measuring cardiac output - this practical does not require a lab and could also be conducted in an online lesson.
Respiration in Yeast
Proper use of the microscope.
Growing bacteria: this is one of my favourites because they enjoy it a lot.
Check the slides’ notes for some extra info.

This resource contains a power point with a “sudden death quiz” about pathogens and immunity (KS4 level). Easily adaptable and editable for other levels.
There are 15 questions with interactive buttons. Only the right question leads you to the next one. Wrong questions lead you back to the beginning of the quiz. It is a great resource for revision that can be used as a class by projecting it on the whiteboard or it can be shared with students for them to navigate it on their own.
You have the editable power point for you to add questions or edit them to increase/decrease difficulty. To add questions, you can just copy the last slide before the “well done” slide and move the interactive buttons to match the right answer.
In presentation mode the only way to go to the next slide is using the interactive buttons, the mouse or arrow keys will not work (kiosk mode). Press Esc to stop the presentation.
You also have the “show” version of the power point that can be shared with students so that they can use it as revision.
