Respiration and Breathing Explained Two Fully Resourced Lessons Plus Animated Quiz
Two comprehensive, engaging, fully resourced lessons explaining everything the KS3 science student need to know about cellular respiration and breathing plus an enjoyable and challenging animated team quest quiz. Each lesson comes with an easy to follow, animated PowerPoint and a collection of sixteen worksheets, guided notes, activities and homework. A one – page flow chart lesson plan shows where logical choices can be made between resources if time requires.
The game is closely related to the topic content and can be used to reinforce learning after the topic has been taught or for test prep. Team Quest is a 61 question, animated, interactive team quiz with built – in scoreboard for up to seven teams. All questions are pictorial and multiple choice.
What’s Covered
Breathing is movement of air in and out of the lungs.
Respiration is the release of energy from glucose.
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.
Anaerobic respiration creates oxygen debt which must be cleared using oxygen and is why breathing rate does not return to normal immediately vigorous activity ceases.
Yeast is a unicellular fungus that undergoes fermentation.
Word equations for aerobic respiration and fermentation.
Conditions necessary for fermentation.
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.
Design an investigation into how breathing rate varies with exercise.

Playing Team Quest Quiz
Each team will attempt their own three questions, the answer to each of which must be decided by the whole team. If a wrong answer is given, the next question goes to the first hand up and, if correct, that person’s team get to try the rest of the round.
Each team will also have to solve the clues to identify a fact or process.
There are five lightning rounds in which team members consult to try to identify a slowly revealed fact or process…
Memory Test – questions on the order and detail of eleven objects which cross the screen then disappear.
Individual Rounds
Two unscramble and identify rounds which consists of a picture which has been cut up and rearranged.
Memory Test – give coordinates of runners which have moved around a grid
Finally, the fifteen - question individual bonus round. This round allows flexibility in terms of the time the quiz takes as not all the questions have to be attempted. The quiz therefore can last between 40 and 50 minutes.

Plant and Animal Cells Structure Differences and Specialisation Two Lessons and Two Revision Lessons
Two action - packed, fully resourced and differentiated lessons on the structure of, and differences between, plant and animal cells. Pupils will learn to label and know the functions of the nucleus, cell membrane, cytoplasm, mitochondria, cell wall, chloroplasts and vacuole. Pupils will learn to identify the differences between specialised cells and typical cells and explain how that difference equips the specialised cell to perform their particular function. Specialised cells studied are chloroplasts, red blood cells, fat cells, nerve cells, root hair cells, ciliated cells, sperm cells and egg cells.
Each test prep lesson consists of a smart board quiz at the end of which each pupil will have constructed a personal detailed revision fact sheet.
Objective
To be able to label the organelles of plant and animal cells.
To know the differences between plant and animal cells
To explain specialisation in red blood cells, root hair cells, fat cells, sperm cells, palisade cells, nerve cells, ciliated cells and egg cells.
