Pupils needing extra support

Could use the Knowledge organiser – Science: Introduction to plants and Knowledge organiser – Science: Plant growth to summarise plant facts in the Recap and recall activity; should use the Activity: Investigating ocean litter: support version which provides a word bank that can be circled to summarise their observations of the results; could use the Knowledge organiser – Science: Habitats to help construct a correct food chain; could photograph the food chains written on whiteboards so they do not need to be rewritten in their books.

Pupils working at greater depth

Should use the information from the experiment, book and game explored in this unit to convince people why it is important to reduce ocean litter and pollution; could further their argument with advice about how to reduce the impact of litter in the ocean; could apply their knowledge of the words carnivore, herbivore and omnivore when describing animals in a food chain.
