At KS4, there are 18 required practicals that you must complete to get your qualifications. We have completed some of these already. The videos below cover some of these practicals; make a mind map, cue cards or any other revision tool that works for you for each one.
You will have exam questions about these practicals so you need to understand them.
PRACTICALS COVERED BELOW:
1.6 Investigate biological specimens using microscopes, including magnification calculations and labelled scientific drawings from observations.
1.16 Investigate osmosis in potatoes.
2.11 Investigate the composition of inks using simple distillation and paper chromatography.
