The Achieve! series of Science titles has been developed for teachers who require modified, curriculum-focused activities for secondary school students who struggle to read and comprehend regular classroom materials because of poor literacy skills. Many of the pages will also be suitable as supplementary material for regular classes.

This downloadable PDF resource will assist teachers to develop lessons for the biology sub-strand in science understanding for years 7 and 8. Units of work cover a variety of topics including classifying organisms according to characteristics, vertebrates and invertebrates, food chains and food webs and the role of humans and introduced species in these, cell structures and analysis, and systems such as the digestive system, reproductive system, eyes and ears. Work sheets help students build their scientific language knowledge and understanding of key concepts.
