Below is an outline (in red and colours oher than black) for Ms Lupone's Unit 1 Biology for Term 1 2014. Student's should use this as a guide and refer to it every lesson an in particular during an absence. Please note that the text in red has been modified for this year. The black was last year's curriculum.
Work outlined in this colour refers to work from the Heinemann Text Book which is referred to as the "text" or Biozone Student Workbook which is identified as Biozone.

Please Note: I will not be here on this day as I am on Year 7 Activity day. Make sure you bring Heinemann Text book to this class. 1. Read through PowerPoint Cell Structure and Function found by clicking on following link. Cell structure and Function
2. Read through all Chapter 2 and complete questions you have not done. Include Chapter 2 review. These are to be finished by next class. Email me any questions you cannot do so I can go through them in class.
3. Complete worksheets. To be done for homework.
Weekend Homework
Ensure you are up to date with all work asked to be completed in this lessons. If you have any questions from Chapter 2 please email Ms Lupone by 4.00 p.m. Monday 17/02/2014. I will go through these questions during the week.
