A year 7 introduction to reproduction. Students are asked to write any words they know associated with reproduction - this is a good point to discuss what is slang and which words will be acceptable to use in science. Students are then asked to come up with their own rules for how to behave in the lessons on reproduction. Students also came up with consequences for breaking these rules. Students then share any previous knowledge by completing the table. The lesson ends with an anonymous question-answering session. Please rate & comment as appropriate.
