Stretch & Challenge Articles for GCSE OCR A Biology

A bumper pack of engaging and highly relevant articles to accompany a whole year of the GCSE course - 16 articles for Year 1 and 18 articles for Year 2. With follow-up activities for every article and full links to specs, this is a wonderful addition to any scheme of work.

Excellent coverage across the topics, a nice variety of follow-on activities, well written articles and well elected further stimulus material to extend pupils

J Willoughby, Head of Junior Biology and Peer Reviewer
  • Fascinating examples of both cutting-edge and historic developments to engage students with Science.
  • Totally flexible – use as a core lesson element, extension activity or a homework.
  • Discussion questions and comprehension questions allow students to consolidate, then take their ideas further.

A fantastic resource to stimulate learning and further research; challenging enough to stretch the most able, but supported by structured questioning to make it accessible to all pupils
