RO18 LO1.4 Recognise & evaluate methods of contraception, their efficiency & reliability Cambridge N

Lesson on Recognising and evaluating methods of contraception, their efficienct and reliabilty from learning outcome one (1.4) Cambridge Nattional level1/2

Powerpoint shows the two types of contraception: barrier and hormonal methods and starter activity is a discussion for student on ‘when should we start thinking about contraception’ with feedback to the teacher.

Types of contraception are written in different styles on slide eight and student are given 60 seconds to study them. After the 60 seconds students are given the same amount of time to recall as many as they can that were displayed. More able students should attempt to explain how some of the methods work.

Information is then provided, first on barrier methods and then on hormonal methods of contraceptives. Students are then shown a table which lists the methods of contraceptives and students are to complete their own stating the pro’s and con’s for each method. ( I also print out some handouts on each method from the internet- NHS site is quite good for them)
More able and less able tables provided.

Next activity is to apply their knowledge by creating an informational poster:
Instructions:
Decide what factors the poster will incorporate
Decide what information will be given about each factor
Design the poster
Use words like – where, when, how, who etc
Pleanry is to discuss and show the rest of the table/nearby students one anothers posters.
