Curriculum learning
objectives:
DOUBLE
2.47 understand the biological
consequences of smoking in
relation to the lungs and the
circulatory system, including
coronary heart disease.
TRIPLE
2.37 describe experiments to
investigate the evolution of
carbon dioxide and heat from
respiring seeds or other suitable
living organisms.
DOUBLE
2.57 describe the composition of
the blood: red blood cells, white
blood cells, platelets and plasma
2.58 understand the role of plasma
in the transport of carbon dioxide,
digested food, urea, hormones and
heat energy
2.59 explain how adaptations of
red blood cells, including shape,
structure and the presence of
haemoglobin, make them suitable
for the transport of oxygen
TRIPLE
2.61 understand that vaccination
results in the manufacture of
memory cells, which enable
future antibody production to
the pathogen to occur sooner,
faster and in greater quantity
DOUBLE
2.60 describe how the immune
system responds to disease using
white blood cells, illustrated by
phagocytes ingesting pathogens
and lymphocytes releasing
antibodies specific to the pathogen
TRIPLE
2.62 understand that platelets
are involved in blood clotting,
which prevents blood loss and
the entry of micro-organisms
DOUBLE
Review and Assessment
TRIPLE
Review and Assessment
Student learning outcomes: DOUBLE
Students can explain the causes of
heart attacks. Students apply their
knowledge by deducing the
likelihood of individuals suffering
from an attack using data and
lifestyle information.
TRIPLE
Students design a qualitative
experiment to produce evidence
that respiration produces heat and
carbon dioxide using pea seeds.
DOUBLE
Students to produce
presentations on red blood cell
structural adaptations, shape
adaptations or presence of
haemoglobin for oxygen
carriage.
TRIPLE
Students interpret graphs of
antibody concentration to explain
the need for vaccination
programmes in a community.
DOUBLE
Students produce a storyboard to
demonstrate the process of the
immune response.
TRIPLE
Students produce a flow chart to
explain the process of blood
clotting.
DOUBLE
Students complete an end of unit
assessment and peer assess.
TRIPLE
Students complete an end of unit
assessment and peer assess.
