Science at key stage 3    (Year 7)

Unit 7B: Reproduction
Section 10: Checking progress

QCA

Objectives
Children should learn:
  • to summarise and make connections between key ideas in the unit
  • to plan and develop ideas and lines of thinking into continuous text

Activities

Outcomes
Children:
  • Ask pupils to produce a short illustrated account of the growth of a foetus and birth, which could be used with a younger sibling when a new baby is about to arrive in the family. Ask them for their ideas of the main points to include and how to organise the material.
  • produce an account identifying key points and linking them in an appropriate sequence, using links of time and cause

Points to note
  • A writing frame could profitably be used to give structure to this activity.
