(0)
The “Puberty” worksheet for Year 8 Foundation Science focuses on the changes during puberty. It starts with a fill-in-the-blank paragraph where students use terms to describe puberty, including its onset ages, stages, and hormones. Next, students label a diagram using provided words. Following this, there is a matching activity where students link hormones to their functions. The worksheet also includes a reading passage about physical, social, and emotional changes during puberty, with questions for students to answer based on the text. These questions cover the types of changes, reasons behind them, and coping strategies. Classroom Usage: Introduction: Start with a discussion on puberty, explaining the changes and why they occur. Guided Practice: Complete the fill-in-the-blank paragraph together, ensuring understanding of key terms. Diagram Labeling: Use a board diagram to guide students in labeling their own diagrams. Matching Activity: Have students match hormones to their functions, then review answers together. Reading and Discussion: Read the passage as a class, discussing each type of change. Question and Answer: Students answer questions based on the reading, with class discussion to ensure comprehension. Coping Strategies: Discuss coping strategies and encourage students to share their thoughts and experiences.
