Lesson 2 Biological sciences GROWING AND CHANGING Teacher notes Science inquiry focus: How do humans grow and change from a baby to an adult? Science Inquiry Skills: • Questioning and predicting QP • Planning and conducting PC • Processing and analysing data and information PA • Communicating C Science as a Human Endeavour: • Students act like scientists when they make observations, ask questions and describe changes in human beings at different stages of development. Technology/Engineering/Mathematics links: • using a QR code reader to view a video • using iMovie® (or similar) to create a time-lapse video • submitting a video online or via email Background information • All living things grow and their features change over the course of their life. Growing and changing is part of an organism’s ability to find and use available resources, reproduce and survive. • The appearance and activity of people, animals and plants changes as they go through a complete life cycle. • The human life cycle can be divided into different stages in a number of ways. The stages include infancy, childhood, adolescence/teenager, adulthood and old age/elderly. The lengths of these stages vary across individuals, cultures and time. Development in the stages is affected by environmental and physiological factors, as well as differing experiences. Assessment focus: • The worksheet on page 10 may be used as a formative assessment to gauge student understanding that humans grow and change throughout their lives. Resources • Photographs of the teacher at different stages of life if possible (baby, child and adult). These can be scanned for viewing on the whiteboard • Photographs of each student as a baby and throughout their childhood to the present day. Ensure students bring at least 12 photographs from different stages of their life. Alternatively, parents may provide digital photographs instead • Sufficient copies of page 10 • Computer tablet with iMovie® or similar application, and QR code reader © R.I.C.

Biological sciences GROWING AND CHANGING Lesson 2 Lesson plan Introduction: 1. Guess who? Display the baby and child photographs (of the teacher) on the whiteboard and ask the students to identify the person. Display the adult photograph so the students can see the answer. What changes can you see (physically) from one photograph to the next? In what other ways do people change as they grow? What things can an adult do that a baby or child can’t do? QP Development: 2. Show the baby photographs of the students one at a time, for students to guess who it is. How have they changed? How do they look the same? How do they look different? QP 3. Provide each student with a copy of page 10. Students scan the QR code and watch the time-lapse video of a baby growing into a girl. Individually, students write about themselves and what they looked like or will look like at each stage. Students think about what kinds of things they were able to do at the different stages and what they are looking forward to being able to do as an adult, and include this information on their page. PC PA 4. Students use the photographs that they have brought in and a computer tablet to take a digital photograph of each individual photograph. Students then use the iMovie® application (or similar) to create a movie using the digital images, similar to the time-lapse video they watched. Teachers may wish to ensure they understand how to use iMovie®, but it is relatively simple, as explained at . PA C Differentiation • Assist less capable students to complete sections of page 10 and question them to help them develop appropriate conclusions. • More capable students can complete page 10 independently and may be asked to write additional details for each stage. Reflection: 5. Select students to talk about how they have grown and changed from the time when they were a baby, and what they expect to look like or be doing as an adult. They can refer to their completed worksheet and also show their time-lapse video of themselves. C 6. The teacher may also wish to upload the student time-lapse videos to the school website, e-newsletter, class blog site or send it via email. Students can assist where appropriate. C © R.I.C.
