Biology |
Plants • Identify, classify and describe their basic structure. • Observe and describe growth and conditions for growth. Habitats • Look at the suitability of environments and at food chains. Animals and humans • Identify, classify and observe. • Look at growth, basic needs, exercise, food and hygiene.
|
Plants • Look at the function of parts of flowering plants, requirements of growth, water transportation in plants, life cycles and seed dispersal. Evolution and inheritance • Look at resemblance in offspring. • Look at changes in animals over time. • Look at adaptation to environments. • Look at differences in offspring. • Look at adaptation and evolution. • Look at changes to the human skeleton over time. Animals and humans • Look at nutrition, transportation of water and nutrients in the body, and the muscle and skeleton system of humans and animals. • Look at the digestive system in humans. • Look at teeth. • Look at the human circulatory system. All living things • Identify and name plants and animals • Look at classification keys. • Look at the life cycle of animals and plants. • Look at classification of plants, animals and micro-organisms. • Look at reproduction in plants and animals, and human growth and changes. • Look at the effect of diet, exercise and drugs.

Chemistry |
Materials • Identify, name, describe, classify, compare properties and changes. • Look at the practical uses of everyday materials.
|
Rocks and fossils • Compare and group rocks and describe the formation of fossils. States of matter • Look at solids, liquids and gases, changes of state, evaporation, condensation and the water cycle. Materials • Examine the properties of materials using various tests. • Look at solubility and recovering dissolved substances. • Separate mixtures. • Examine changes to materials that create new materials that are usually not reversible.
|
Physics |
Forces • Describe basic movements. Earth and space • Observe seasonal changes.
|
Light • Look at sources, seeing, reflections and shadows. • Explain how light appears to travel in straight lines and how this affects seeing and shadows. Sound • Look at sources, vibration, volume and pitch. Electricity • Look at appliances, circuits, lamps, switches, insulators and conductors. • Look at circuits, the effect of the voltage in cells and the resistance and conductivity of materials. Forces and magnets • Look at contact and distant forces, attraction and repulsion, comparing and grouping materials. • Look at poles, attraction and repulsion. • Look at the effect of gravity and drag forces. • Look at transference of forces in gears, pulleys, levers and springs. Earth and space
• Look at the movement of the Earth and the Moon
•Explain day and night
