A full lesson package introducing/reviewing the human respiratory system, covering what respiration is, why it's needed, relevant structures, common respiratory diseases, and how respiration differs in fish.
Cornell-notes style presentation reviewing blood cell types and covering ABO/Rh blood typing and transfusion compatibility, part 3 of a blood unit for high school Anatomy & Physiology/Biology.
A PowerPoint lesson explaining the anatomy and physiology of breathing (pulmonary ventilation), covering the mechanics of inspiration and expiration at rest and during exercise.
Choose a note set to introduce digestive structures, nutrient topics, or tooth anatomy. The nutrition presentation begins with questions that revisit the anatomy vocabulary, giving you a bridge between lessons. Students can record terms and explanations in their own notes. For a separate practical comparison, see earthworm dissection lab .
A senior high school biology lesson covering reproductive hormones, the male and female reproductive systems, spermatogenesis, the ovarian and menstrual cycles, hormonal negative feedback (LH, FSH, estrogen, progesterone), controlling reproduction, and puberty.
A math/interdisciplinary PowerPoint lesson exploring the Golden Ratio (Phi, 1.618) as it appears in the human body and in Leonardo da Vinci's Vitruvian Man, connecting math, art, and history.
Use the slide notes to guide students through digestive structures and their roles. Organ headings and short explanations give learners a framework for their own notes, while opening review-style questions provide a way to begin discussion. A separate earthworm dissection lab offers a practical comparison with another animal’s digestive anatomy.
Teach GCSE-level PE Anatomy & Physiology students about gaseous exchange in the human body: diffusion at the alveoli and the role of haemoglobin.
A lecture slide deck teaching the structures and functions of the human brain and how they relate to behavior and mental processes, aligned to AP Psychology content standards.
Deliver a multi-day slide-based lesson on the human digestive system, covering why the body needs digestion, digestive organs, digestive enzymes, and mechanical vs. chemical digestion.
Three PowerPoint note-taking presentations covering the female reproductive system, male reproductive system, and the menstrual cycle for a high school Anatomy/Physiology or Biology class.
A PowerPoint lesson presentation on Excess Post-exercise Oxygen Consumption (EPOC) for GCSE PE anatomy and physiology, explaining oxygen debt and recovery from exercise.
A notes presentation covering cell organelles for a secondary biology or anatomy/physiology course, including a review of cell theory/prokaryote-eukaryote basics before introducing organelle functions and a plant-vs-animal cell comparison.
A GCSE PE (Anatomy & Physiology) PowerPoint lesson teaching the definitions, chemical equations, and sporting applications of aerobic and anaerobic energy systems.
An introductory notes presentation on the cell for a high school Biology or Anatomy/Physiology course, covering the history of cell discovery, cell theory, prokaryotes vs. eukaryotes, and the plasma membrane.
GCSE PE Anatomy & Physiology lesson teaching students to identify major bones of the body, locate them on a skeleton, and link bones to their function in sport.
Teach high school Anatomy & Physiology/Biology students the structures of the heart as the second part of a cardiovascular system unit.
PowerPoint lesson teaching the three classes of lever systems as they apply to the human body, for GCSE PE movement analysis.
Three PowerPoint presentations cover human blood physiology for high school anatomy and physiology classes: a 14-slide deck on platelets and blood physiology, a 14-slide deck on red and white blood cells, and a 12-slide deck on blood types, transfusions, and blood disorders. Across the set, direct-instruction slides — covering hemoglobin's oxygen-carrying role, the three plasma proteins (albumin, globulin, fibrinogen), the five white blood cell types, and ABO blood typing — are accompanied by question-and-answer review slides in the platelet and blood-types decks, such as naming erythropoiesis's controlling hormone or recalling the names of the formed elements. The editable PowerPoint format lets a teacher reorder slides or adjust wording before presenting the three-part unit.
Introduces the psychology of sensation, focusing on vision and audition (hearing): how sense organs transduce stimuli into neural signals, feature detection and parallel processing, color vision theories, color blindness, and the anatomy of the eye and ear.
Use the four note presentations to introduce a cardiovascular topic and pause for students to recall an answer before revealing the explanation. The files cover blood vessels, heart structures, physiology, and disorders, with review questions connecting the topics. For a separate practical follow-up, sheep heart dissection lab offers a specimen-based activity.
A 1-2 day lesson package covering the physics and biology of hearing: frequencies, hearing loss causes/prevention, sound intensity, and ear anatomy.
Teach the structure, components, and sporting function of synovial joints for a GCSE PE Anatomy & Physiology course.
Provide 20 days of short daily review activities (bell ringers/warm-ups/exit tickets) covering the digestive, circulatory, and respiratory body systems for a high school biology class.
