    Strategies to sustain and improve the results
    1. Baseline assessment – results submitted to SESs
    2. Topic tests at the end of each topic – Results to be submitted to
    SESs
    3. Provide terminology-based activities per topic - monitored by SESs
    4. Diagrams or mind maps.
    5. Case studies/reading with understanding
    6. An investigative question must be included in EVERY formal test
    and exam paper – moderation by DH.
    7. Common SBA practicals
    8. Intervention classes

    Baseline test – when starting a new topic, assess what prior


    knowledge learners have. For example: grade 10 cells – what
    do they remember from previous grades etc.

    Topic tests – this shows you what the learners know. Did they
    learn anything?

    Please forward the stats to your SES


    Training:

    16 April – Exam paper setting


    Grade 10 & 11
    7 May – Scientific investigations

    Other training might be added


    throughout the year
    Grade 10 & 11

    This is the basics that


    learners must do
    RELABs
    Provide them with extra
    questions and activities

    Use resources from our


    google drive
    Calculations

    Learners are expected to round off their answers to two decimal points unless stated otherwise
    Scientific investigations
    • A greater emphasis on practical work and practical tasks of good
    quality in Grades 10 and 11 will assist in preparing learners more
    adequately for questions based on scientific investigations.

    • Learners must be challenged to design their own investigations by


    being given an 'observation', 'hypothesis' or 'aim’.

    • Use the practical worksheets provided on Google


    drive

    • Training on practical investigation question will be done online 7 May

    Practical worksheets – how to use it
    WORKSHEET 3 (a)
    Aim: To demonstrate that oxygen is used Ask questions like:
    during respiration
    Apparatus: What are the variables?
    •Two vials Oxygen and respiration
    •2 stoppers Always look at the AIM not the results, the results shows how the dependent
    •2 gauze sacs with lining is measured. Never refer to independent as the “effect of something” this
    •Germinating seeds changes the meaning.
    •Boiled seeds
    •Methylene blue solution Which is independent and dependent?
    •Pipette Independent = respiration(one we change)
    •Method: Dependent= oxygen (one we measure)

    Usually, the independent is written first and dependent second in the aim.
    So, this aim will be better written as:
    To demonstrate that respiration requires oxygen

    What is the purpose of the control?


    A 'control' is a group in an experiment that does not receive the treatment of the
    independent variable tested.

    To see if oxygen used depleted because of respiration and not another


    variable/factor. Comparing the results of the experiment where respiration took
    place to the control where no respiration took place.
    Practical worksheet – how to use
    Observations:
    Vial State of Colour of Colour of Oxygen:
    seeds: methylene blue methylene blue present/absent
    living/dead solution at the solution at the
    beginning of the end of the
    experiment experiment

    Discussion: Discuss what the observations mean

    Conclusion: Refer to the two variables. Give the relationship between the two variables.
