  3. Design Your Own Bacteria - A Primary School Activity in Microbiology. [doc]

    Lesson/Activity Plan, Primary, Microbiology

    This activity is designed to teach students about bacteria and allow them to have fun designing their own! I have designed and tested the activity myself as part of my final year project.

    The activity plan includes some facts students enjoy, a simple 'Simon Says' game to teach students about different structures and the main event of designing their own bacteria!

    If you have any questions regarding the activity then please email me: katielouiseheald@gmail.com

    I can also provide the powerpoint presentation, as I am having problems uploading currently.

  4. Can you imagine the future without antibiotics? A GCSE activity in microbiology. [doc]

    Lesson/Activity Plan, Secondary, Microbiology

    This activity is aimed at GCSE students (or KS3) to discuss antibiotic resistance and relate it to everyday life. It includes discussion on 'the future without antibiotics' with a list of ideas, discussion on what bacteria and antibiotics are, role play game of a cell and antibiotics as well as a debate concerning ethical questions of antibiotic resistance (e.g. should patients be made to take antibiotics under observation?).

    I have designed this activity along with a 'design your own bacteria' activity for primary school students as part of my final year project and am happy to take any questions or help out.

    The activity notes are provided here, and the power point presentation in a separate resource (could not upload here!). The activity notes contain what you will need to reproduce the activity and a basic outline of the main activities, while the presentation contains detailed notes.

    I am currently having problems uploading the presentation so please feel free to email me and I will send it, or contact the STEM team at the Museum of Science and Industry..
