Unit 7B: Reproduction
Section 14: Reviewing work

QCA

Objectives

Children should learn:
  • to bring together information about a particular aspect of reproduction
  • to distinguish between the main ideas in the unit

Activities

Outcomes

Children:
  • Provide pupils with a series of statements about the human life cycle, the processes of fertilisation, embryo development and birth, and about the specialisation of cells. Ask pupils to sort the statements into groups and use them to make summaries of the ideas encountered in the unit.
  • produce summaries which are appropriately sequenced to show key ideas
  • distinguish between aspects of reproduction, eg fertilisation and gestation

Points to note

  • It may be appropriate to give some pupils statements in one category first and then extend the work.
