In this lesson students will learn about the adult and late adulthood stages of the human life cycle. They will learn that adults are fully developed and stop growing before looking in detail at how as humans age, many of the body systems gradually decline leading to the changes we see in elderly people. They will be given detailed information about these changes which they will read and complete related questions. Finally, they will complete a true or false quiz to assess their understanding.

In this lesson, students will learn about the adolescence stage of the human life cycle. They will learn that puberty is the process of a child’s body maturing into an adult body. They will learn about the different changes that boys and girls can expect and will then be quizzed on this new knowledge. An optional video link is also included to support understanding. This lesson does not include detailed images of the private areas. The task will include writing down the key changes that happen during puberty before thinking specifically about the changes that happen for boys and girls. Finally, they will learn about the changes animals go through during puberty also. A knowledge organiser for Animals including Humans is included. This lesson is 1/5 on Animals including Humans.

In this lesson, students will learn about the baby, toddler and child stage of the human life cycle. They will be tasked to observe younger children in their school setting and give recommendations of how to support development using what they have learnt from the lesson and caregivers. Finally, they will create a leaflet for new parents on what to expect from their children age 0-10 and how they can help support development. This lesson is 1/5 on Animals including Humans.

In this lesson, students will learn all about what happens in the womb during gestation. They will learn about fertilisation and how the foetus develops in the womb. They will look at each month of pregnancy specifically, understanding key developments and comparing to the size of a fruit or vegetable for easy understanding! They will be quizzed on their learning throughout. For the tasks, they will have to match up the descriptions of development with the month of gestation before then writing an overview of pregnancy for an expecting mother. Finally, they will look at gestation periods of different animals. A knowledge organiser for Animals including Humans is included. This lesson is 1/5 on Animals including Humans.
