This engaging and detailed lesson has been written to cover the content of point 5.3.5 (Contraception) as detailed in the AQA GCSE Biology & Combined Science specifications. This is a topic which can be difficult to teach due to the awkwardness of a class or students believing that they already know all of the information without really knowing the detail which is laid out in the specification. With this in mind, a wide range of activities have been included in the lesson to maintain motivation whilst ensuring that this important detail is covered. Students will learn about a range of hormonal and non-hormonal methods including oral contraceptives, progesterone patches, condoms and diaphragms and IUDs. Time is taken to look at alternative methods such as abstaining from sexual intercourse during the times around ovulation and sterilisation. Due to the clear link to the topic of hormones in human reproduction, previous knowledge checks are written into the lesson and challenge the students on their knowledge of FSH, LH, oestrogen and progesterone. There are also mathematical skills check so that students are prepared for the added mathematical element in this course.
This lesson has been written for GCSE-aged students who are studying on the AQA GCSE Biology or Combined Science courses but is suitable for younger students who are looking at contraception in their Science lessons
