This Biological Sciences unit explores how living things grow and change. Animal offspring (including humans) are compared with their parents and plants are grown from seed in order to observe change over a period of weeks.
An assessment task in which students will demonstrate their knowledge and understanding of how living things grow and change.
A 60 minute lesson in which students will demonstrate knowledge and understanding of the stages of the human life cycle.
A 60 minute lesson in which students will develop their understanding of the concept of metamorphosis.
A 60 minute lesson in which students will demonstrate knowledge and understanding of simple life cycles.
A 60 minute lesson in which students will plant seeds following the procedure of the scientific method.
A 60 minute lesson in which students will investigate push and push forces at work in the playground.
