Topic ELEMENT
Cells, Muscular and Skeletal Systems
I can state that cells are the fundamental unit
"building block" of organisms
I can name some equipment that may be used
to observe cells
I can list the main parts of cells (cell wall, cell
membrane, nucleus, vacuole, mitochondria and
chloroplasts)
I can list some tissues and organs

I can state that the process by which material
moves into and out of cells is diffusion
I can identify parts of a cell from a diagram
7
I can accurately draw parts of cells when
viewing them under a light microscope
I can identify the structural adaptations of some
unicellular organisms
I can describe how multicellular organisms are
organised (cells > tissues > organs > organ
systems > organisms)
I can describe the structural adaptations of
some animal and plant cells
I can describe the functions of the main parts of
cells, including the cell wall, cell membrane,
cytoplasm, nucleus, vacuole, mitochondria and
chloroplasts)
I can describe a tissue, an organ and an organ
system
I can compare and contrast animal and plant
cells
I can compare eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells
7
I can state that some muscles may be stronger
than others
I can identify parts of the skeletal and muscular
system
I can describe the individual functions of parts
of the skeletal and muscular system
I can describe methods of measuring the force
from muscles

I can explain why some muscles may need to be
stronger than others
I can explain how parts of the skeletal and
muscular system work together
I can explain the function of antagonistic
muscle pairs
I can suggest how artificial parts of the skeletal
and muscular system may affect an individual

Learning Focus
Assessment
What do plant and animal cells look like?
Explore the different features inside cells
To know how to use a microscope
How are cells specialised to carry out their function?
To describe how cells, tissues, organs and systems are linked
together
Describe and explain how cells get the materials they need
To explore different types of unicellular organisms and their
adaptations
Understand the structure and function of the human
skeleton
Understand the function of joints and muscles
Design and carry out an investigation into which muscle is
the strongest
To research how different artificial parts of the skeletal and
muscular system can affect an individual
