Year 10 Science Summer Homework

Over the past year, your child has been following the new specification for science, issued by the AQA examination board.  We have found the increased content more challenging and the higher demand on numeracy requiring additional time to be spent embedding concepts and ensuring students are making long term memories of their Science lessons.

To continue the gains of this academic year, the science department require every year 10 student to complete a summer assignment which will engage their brains over the extended break and gain time at the end of year 11 for additional examination preparation and practice.  This project is part of the final Biology unit on ecology and can be found attached to every student’s show my homework account as well as emailed to their school email account and on the school website.  Every student has access to the Science text book through www.connect.collins.co.uk and can use the text book to assist them.

We are issuing the project in plenty of time before the summer to allow students to read through what is required of them and to come and see their science teaching staff in case there are any issues or questions.  Also, students may wish to complete the project before the summer if they are really keen.

We hope that you can support your child in the completion of this project and ensure that it is completed, ready for handing in the first week back after the holidays.

If you have any questions, please contact me at school.

Yours sincerely,

Mrs K Fox

Head of Science
