Year 9 Independent Lesson Work


Year 9, your Task is to complete the Lessons below during this time away. Each Lesson has a scanned Text book page. Your First job will be to read the information and make some summary notes of new information that you have learned (include diagrams if they help you). Then you must write out the questions and answer in complete sentences (keep your presentation neat). Finally you must make green pen corrections, when you check your answers against the mark scheme included with each lesson. ​This work will be checked for both completion and presentation on your return (achievement points and more rewards will be given to the best!). Your teacher may ask for you to take a picture of your work and send to them via email also.

Easter Holidays - Easter Project

Your task for over the Easter Holidays is to follow this link https://www.nasa.gov/content/human-missions-list  and write a report on 1) The International Space Station (its construction and mission) 2) Write about a past NASA mission, what happened? who was involved and what was it it's purpose (there have been some tragic missions as well that could be interesting to research) 3) Write about a possible future mission NASA is planning to undertake. Your report in total should be around 2 pages of a MS word document (you can include pictures). Remember, do not copy and paste information (apart from a pictures) as it must be your own words. Deadline for submitting your project report by email to your class teacher is Monday 20th April by midday.

May Half Term 25th - 29th May

Wildlife Photography May Half Term Challenge 

Your task during this half term (now that lock down rules have been slightly reduced) is to go out and take a picture of the most interesting biological specimen (either plant or animal) you can find in the surrounding neighbourhood (if you have an exotic Pet and you think it would be an interesting specimen then you can use it also). You will then need to research the specimen you found, finding out the scientific name and some facts about it life-cycle and how is survives. Email your picture and facts to your teacher - Deadline is Monday 1st June.  

If you do not have a garden, Nunhead Cemetery and of Course Peckham Rye are excellent places to find organisms (Reptiles live in Lake in Peckham Rye! and can be easily seen on a sunny day) but please obey all Social Distancing rules while out and remember do not harm any organism on your quest to get your perfect picture.

Week Thirteen (Sets 1 - 6) Start 6th July

No lessons have been set for this week as you will be conducting Ranking assessment in many of your subjects. Your Science Ranking Exam will be on Wednesday 8th July during your live remote lesson. Make sure you email your teacher any questions if you are unsure about what to do well in advance of this day. ​

Final Week Research Project Start 13th July

Your task is to research 3 careers linked to Science that you would be interested in doing. You must write up the qualifications you would require (including GCSEs, A-Levels and type of Degree). A summary of the training or experience required after your education. An explanation as to what you would do in that career and also the starting salary and final salary you might receive. You must submit this to your Science teacher in the form of a PowerPoint presentation or word document, this must be submitted by Friday 17th July (Last day of the Summer term). Remember this should be what you would be interested to do so spend time thinking about this and exploring, using the internet to help you. If you are interested in any Biology linked career, please click on the careers tab on this web site as there are lots of articles already assembled to help you.
