  4. What’s relevant to ZSL? • Working scientifically: • Observing over time • Identifying and classifying • Fair testing • Research • Pattern seeking • Yr 1 – classifying, ‘scientific language’, seasonal change • Yr 2 – Habitats and micro-habitats, food chains, classifying • Yr 6 – Evolution and Inheritance

  5. New and adapting existing provision… • World Habitats (KS2) – adapting and scaling down KS2 session content for KS1 version and adding self-guided resource to encourage comparison of habitats (Science Yr 2 – Living things and their habitats) • Classifying Minibeasts (KS2) - adapting and scaling down KS2 session content for KS1 version (KS1 Working scientifically – classifying) • Bones and Movement (KS2) – changing session – possibly exploring evolution content with bones (Science Yr 6 – Evolution)

  6. New and adapting existing provision… • Behaviour study (KS3/4) – real data for analysis and evaluation (application of mathematical concepts etc.) (KS3 Working Scientifically) http://www.lpzoo.org/education/initiatives/observe-learn (Apple only) • Sustainability and Climate Changetopics underserved • Literacyand numeracysupport for alltopics • How do we encourage ‘multiple-interventions’? Possibly through ‘observing through time’ or ‘pattern seeking’? (discounted multiple entry tickets?)

  7. Other opportunities… • Computing and Sciencecross curricular project – • Cross-departmental D&L, CP and IoZ • Mission driven from ZSL perspective • Conservation in context • Biodiversity and conservation technology links • Foster longer term relationships

  8. Other opportunities… And some other content to explore: • Poetry CPD for teachers with ZSL poet in Residence (Ahren Warner) KS3KS3: Reading - Range and Content: Literature The range of literature studied should include: - Stories, poetry and drama drawn from different historical times, including contemporary writers - Texts that enable pupils to understand the appeal and importance over time of texts from the English literary heritage.
