Focus on Knowledge, Skills and Understanding
Success Criteria: You will show your learning by...
  1. Cells are the basic building blocks of all living organisms.
  2. A tissue is a group of cells with a similar structure and function.
  3. Organs are aggregations of tissues performing specific functions.
  4. Organs are organised into organ systems, which work together to form organisms.
  5. Students should be able to develop an understanding of size and scale in relation to cells, tissues, organs and systems.
Think about how you can match the needs of ALL students
