Prior Knowledge Breathing is movement of air in and out of the lungs. Respiration is the release of energy from glucose. Yeast is a unicellular fungus that undergoes fermentation. Bread, beer and wine are products of fermentation. Respiration happens in the mitochondria of all plant and animal cells. Aerobic respiration uses oxygen to release energy from glucose. Anaerobic respiration does not use oxygen to release energy from glucose and produces lactic acid which causes muscle cramps. Word equations for aerobic respiration and fermentation.

Prior Knowledge Required Magnetic materials can be made into magnets. Iron, cobalt and nickel and their alloys are magnetic materials. Unlike poles attract and like pole repel. There is an invisible magnetic field around a magnet made up of field lines. Draw the field lines around a bar magnet. The closer together the field lines the stronger the magnetic field. Draw the field lines around two bar magnets with like and unlike poles facing. There are more field lines around the poles where the magnetic field is strongest. The magnetic field strength gets less as distance from the magnet increases. Field lines point away from the south pole and towards the north pole of a magnet. When a magnetic material is made into a magnet, the randomly facing domains all line up to point in the same direction. The Earth acts as though there as a south-type pole at magnetic north and a north-type pole at magnetic south.

A comprehensive and enjoyable introduction to atoms, molecules, elements, compounds, the periodic table, chemical symbols, formulae and naming compounds. What’s Covered All atoms of one element are the same but are different from the atoms of other elements. Atoms combine to form molecules. If combining atoms are from the same element, a molecule of an element is formed. If combining atoms are from different element, a molecule of a compound is formed. An element contains only one type of atom A compound contains two or more different types of atom. Elements are listed in the periodic table. Each element has its own symbol. Symbols can be the first letter of the name (capital), two letters from the name (capital then lowercase) or taken from the Latin name of the element. The formula of a compound tells you how many atoms of each element are in it. Working out the number of atoms of each element in a compound from its formula. Naming compounds with the groups CO3, SO4, NO3. Compounds containing only two atoms end in ide. Mono = 1, di = 2, tri = 3.

This action-packed lesson introduces current as a flow of electrons and explains the relationship between current, voltage and resistance using the analogy of a diver using up energy obtained from food and giving off heat as they swim through pipes filled either with water (low resistance) or water and rocks (high resistance). The food as a source of energy is then replaced by the battery, the diver by the electron and the rocks by metal ions. Both scenarios are animated in the PowerPoint. This explanation is then extended to compare the resistance of long, short, thick and thin wires. The practical explores the conditions needed for current to flow in a circuit. Objective To know that current is a flow of electrons through a conductor when they are given energy or pushed by a voltage from the battery. To know and explain how metal ions cause resistance. To know and explain the comparative resistance of wires according to length and thickness. To explain why electrons lose more heat passing through a high resistance conductor. To know the conditions needed for current to flow in a circuit.

This action-packed, differentiated, lesson on the structure of plant and animal cells is fully resourced with 12 activities and 14 learning outcomes. Pupils learn to label and know the functions of the nucleus, cell membrane, cytoplasm, mitochondria, cell wall, chloroplasts and vacuole. It explains that differences between plant and animal cells stem from the lack of a skeleton in plant so that the cells must provide support and that plants, anchored into the ground and unable to move to hunt, must make their own food. Easy to follow instructions are given on PowerPoint and worksheets so that the lesson practically runs itself. Activities include literacy, group work, peer assessment, self-assessment, pupil response to assessment and feedback to teacher on pupil learning via an exit ticket quiz. This pack contains material for two hours lesson time in total to enable the teacher to select resources to totally bespoke their lesson according to pupil ability, time available for the topic and focus of departmental/school policy. Any unused resources can be utilized as additional homework or pre-examination revision. An easy to follow one-page flow chart lesson plan indicates where logical choices between resources can be made and indicates whether each activity includes literacy, oracy or AFL .

Finish and reinforce a middle school module on breathing and the respiratory system or revisit it prior to exams with this innovative, enjoyable and challenging escape room lesson. Prior Knowledge Required Breathing is movement of air in and out of the lungs. Respiration is the release of energy from glucose. Breathing provides the oxygen for aerobic respiration and gets rid of waste carbon dioxide. Label the trachea, right bronchus, bronchiole, alveolus, intercostal muscle, rib, diaphragm. Label a diagram of an alveolus and show the direction of diffusion of oxygen and carbon dioxide. Experiment using limewater to compare the amount of carbon dioxide in inhaled and exhaled air. Compare the percentage of oxygen, carbon dioxide and nitrogen in inhaled and exhaled air. Mechanism of breathing. Changes in volume and pressure inside the chest during inhalation and exhalation. Evaluate a model of the mechanism of breathing. Students have to work their way through the clues to find the code to a combination lock on the school exam paper store in which the substitute teacher has been accidentally locked in the stationery store. The pack contains: PowerPoint – scene setting and instructions (sound effects and built-in timer); crossword; word search; dominoes activity; worksheet; code breaker sheet; answers; lesson plan. If time is limited just the crossword, word search and domino can be used. The worksheet is the most challenging clue to solve and this can be omitted completely for less able classes. Both 3 and 4 number combination locks can be purchased very cheaply online or the teacher can pretend to phone the school office for the staff to attempt to release the teacher.
