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 jointsP 293Antagonistic muscle actionP 29429L.5 InheritanceSexual and asexual reproduction; cloningP 299Variation and genetic engineeringP 300EvolutionP 301Inheritance of sex; DNA, genes and alleles; inherited disordersP 30139L.6 Hormones and nervesHomeostasis and role of hormonesP 307Nervous system and types of nerves; pathway of nerve impulseP 308Structure of the human eye and earP 309MATERIALS9M.3 – Energy ResourceExothermic and endothermic reactionsP333,334,335Fossil FuelsP335,336Renewable and non-renewable energy resourceP337,3389M.4-PolymersMaterials made from polymersP343,344Molecular structure of polymersP 344Relating structure to propertiesP 345,346,347Building materialsP348,349EARTH AND SPACE 9E.1 The visible universeStars and GalaxiesP 353Stellar evolutionP 354,355The evolutionof universeP 355,356PHYSICAL PROCESSES9p.5 Moment and levers Moment.P 395Simple machinesP 396,3979p.6 Structures How strong are different materials?P 401,402,403Making and testing a structureP 403,4049p.7 soundSound: its transmission and hearingP 409,410Sound quality, pitch and loudnessP 410,411The velocity of soundP 411KEYRelated to Inquiry StandardsNot found in main or alternative resourceLife ScienceMaterialsPhysical ProcessesEarth & SpaceSTRANDScheme of Work UnitMonth/WeekTime / SubtopicC.S SCIENCE CURRICULUM STANDARD(Life Science)ISBN:13:978_0_618_61518_6ISBN:10: 0_618_61518_0CHAPTER PAGESNOTCOVEREDALTERNATIVE RESOURCENew Biology 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.Unit 5Chap 17 System Support and MovementSec:17.2Page: 595,5962 hoursAntagonistic muscle action9.9.2Describe how the contraction and relaxation of muscles enables locomotion.
