Polish version of revision summary.

revision complete polish

1D3 and 1G3 are getting close to the end of the Cells and Reproduction topic. The test for 1D3 will be next Friday – 3rd June. 1G3 have missed periods for sports and trips, so their test will be at the end of the following week – around 10th June.

Teaching materials are not available for all topics as they were written in a format which you would not be able to view on line.  Materials are available on the blog for the microscopes and cells only, not the reproduction and DNA.

As with the last few topics, you have been issued with a revision summary. You have been taught in class how to do active revision – highlighting key words, drawing up vocabulary lists, changing format (e.g. paragraph to mind map) and read, cover, write check. In the last topic some people were disappointed with test marks, but admitted that they had not prepared well for the test. This is your opportunity to do something differently.

• Start early.
• Revise short and often rather than leave it all till the night before.
• Use active revision

Using a Microscope Homework 1

1D3 and 1G3 are now experts in using the microscope, preparing materials to look at under the microscope and drawing what they see accurately. We have made a fantastic scientific discovery – living things are made up of much smaller units called cells. These cells all have similarities in their structure, but may be different in shape, size, form and arrangement depending on what they do.

The next part of the topic is to look at cells – what makes cells different in animals and plants? What are the parts of the cell and what do they do? What makes different cells suited to the jobs they do?

I have enjoyed this topic because it has been fun and interesting. My favourite experiment was the separating iron from sulphur

i have enjoyed this topic because i got to do lots of different experiments and work individualy  and in groups it also improved my confidence in doing experiments

I really enjoyed this topic on Chemical reactions it was very enjoyable with all the experiments that we had to do ,
