Key ideas from curriculum documents
Science Understanding
Cells are the basic units of living things and have specialised structures and functions






examining a variety of cells using a light microscope, by digital technology or by viewing a simulation
distinguishing plant cells from animal or fungal cells
identifying structures within cells and describing their function
recognising that some organisms consist of a single cell
recognising that cells reproduce via cell division
describing mitosis as cell division for growth and repair
Multi-cellular organisms contain systems of organs that carry out specialised functions that enable them to
survive and reproduce






identifying the organs and overall function of a system of a multicellular organism in supporting the life processes
describing the structure of each organ in a system and relating its function to the overall function of the system
examining the specialised cells and tissues involved in structure and function of particular organs
comparing similar systems in different organisms such as digestive systems in herbivores and carnivores,
respiratory systems in fish and mammals
distinguishing between asexual and sexual reproduction
comparing reproductive systems of organisms
Science as a Human Endeavour
Scientific knowledge changes as new evidence becomes available, and some scientific discoveries have
significantly changed people’s understanding of the world


investigating developments in the understanding of cells and how this knowledge has impacted on areas such as
health and medicine
investigating the development of the microscope and the impact it has had on the understanding of cell functions
and division
Science knowledge can develop through collaboration and connecting ideas across the disciplines of science


considering how advances in technology, combined with scientific understanding of the functioning of body
systems, has enable medical science to replace or repair organs
researching the use of reproductive technologies and how developments in this field rely on scientific knowledge
from different areas of science
Science and technology contribute to finding solutions to a range of contemporary issues, these solutions may
impact on other areas of society and involve ethical considerations

discussing ethnical issues that arise from organ transplantation
Science understanding influences the development of practices in areas of human activity such as industry,
agriculture and marine terrestrial resource management

describing the impact of plant cloning techniques (asexual production) in agriculture such as horticulture, fruit
production and vineyards
People use understanding and skills from across the disciplines of science in their occupations

recognising the role of knowledge of cells and cell divisions in the area of disease treatment and control
Science Inquiry Skills
Questioning and predicting
Planning and conducting
Processing and analysing data and information
Evaluating
Communicating.

DIFFERENTIATION
Students requiring support can…
The learning experiences within this unit can be differentiated by increasing:
• the frequency of exposure for some students
• the intensity of teaching by adjusting the group size
• the duration needed to complete tasks and assessment
Students requiring extension can…
For guided and/or independent practice tasks:
• student groupings will offer tasks with a range of complexities to cater for individual learning needs
• rotational groupings that allow for more or less scaffolding of student learning
