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 2UNIT TITLE/ NUMBER from S.O.WSchemes of Work - SubtitlesSoW PAGE numberLIFE SCIENCE19L.4 MovementTypes of jointsPage 3Antagonistic muscle actionPage 429L.5 InheritanceSexual and asexual reproduction; cloningPage 299Variation and genetic engineeringPage 300EvolutionPage 301Inheritance of sex; DNA, genes and alleles; inherited disordersPage 30139L.6 Hormones and nervesHomeostasis and role of hormonesPage 307Nervous system and types of nerves; pathway of nerve impulsePage 308Structure of the human eye and earPage 309MATERIALS9M.3 – Energy ResourceExothermic and endothermic reactionsPage 333-334Fossil FuelsPage 335-336Renewable and non-renewable energy resourcePage 337-3389M.4-PolymersMaterials made from polymersPage 343-344Molecular structure of polymersPage -344Relating structure to propertiesPage -345-347Building materialsPage 348-349EARTH AND SPACE 9E.1 The visible universeStars and GalaxiesPage 353Stellar evolutionPage 354-355The evolution of universePage 355-356PHYSICAL PROCESSES9P.5 Moment and levers -Moment.Page 395-Simple machinesPage 396-3979P.6 Structures- How strong are different materials?Page 401-403- Making and testing a structurePage 403-4049P.7 Sound-Sound: its transmission and hearingPage 409-410- Sound quality, pitch and loudnessPage 410-411- The velocity of soundPage 411Related to Inquiry StandardsNot found in main or alternative resourceLife ScienceMaterialsPhysical ProcessesEarth & Space KEYSTRANDScheme of Work UnitMonth/WeekTime / SubtopicC.SSCIENCE CURRICULUM STANDARDCHAPTER0-03-046224-X (Life Science)PAGESNOTCOVEREDALTERNATIVE RESOURCEBiology For YouISBN 978-1-4085-0920-3Life Science9L.4 Movement4hours2 hoursTypes of joints9.9.1Describe the structure of a joint and the types of joints in the human skeleton.Chap 22-Body Organization & structure Sec 2Skeletal systemJointsPage 5862 hoursAntagonistic muscle action9.9.2Describe how the contraction and relaxation of muscles enables locomotion.
