Aimed at Year 13, a series of activities on the topic of human cloning. First there is a gap-fill activity linked to the song 'Klonen kann sich lohnen'. This is followed by a T / F / NiT activity relating to a news report. Students then have to read and sort 18 statements about human cloning into 'For' and 'Against' groups. They must then analyse and categorise the arguments into moral arguments, medical arguments etc. This is followed by a translation into German and an essay title.
