Puberty, Periods, and the Human Life Cycle: Understanding girls’ puberty and how the changes we experience fit into the greater human life cycle. This one-hour lesson is designed for students in UKS2 (specifically for Year 6, though it is also suitable for Year 7). The lesson recaps students’ previous knowledge regarding the changes girls commonly experience during puberty (Year 4/5) before providing a wider context of how adolescence and puberty fit into the greater human life cycle. Created with progression in mind, the students will learn about the menstrual cycle in greater detail than previously covered, before embarking on a scavenger hunt to discover a range of different period products, how they are used, and some pros and cons for each. While this lesson references pregnancy and the fact that mammals must mate to reproduce (Year 5 science curriculum), it does not discuss or reference sexual intercourse. Who are EC Resources?

Conception and making babies: what happens when egg and sperm meet? This is the fourth lesson in our Year 6 unit on puberty, genes, and the human lifecycle. In this lesson, we will recap our Year 5 science lessons, where we learned about reproduction in mammals, before delving deeper as we apply this knowledge to humans and how reproduction plays a key role in the human life cycle. We will look at the role of the male and female sex cells (gametes) and how their union leads to a genetically unique offspring that inherits traits from each parent. Please note that this lesson predominantly focuses on the scientific aspects of reproduction, with a particular focus on fertilisation and conception. While sexual intercourse is briefly mentioned, it is not taught in detail. This topic will, however, be revisited when we learn about loving and intimate relationships later on in the school year.
