AT THE END OF EACH UNIT BELOW THERE IS A SPACE FOR THE SCIENCE DEPT TO OUTLINE HOW THEY INTEND TO DO THIS. Text book references are given to help teachers teach, and also provide a reference for pupils. However this does not replace the good practice of teachers using a variety of resources to teach and explain further in order to cover the curriculum standard fully.UNITS – SEMESTER 1OrderMONTHUNIT TITLE/ NUMBER from S.O.WSchemes of Work - SubtitlesSoW PAGE numberLIFE SCIENCE1SEPT7L.1– Specialised cells*Animal and plant cell structure and the function of parts of a cell.Specialised cells, tissues and organs.*Making model cells.
