reference sheet
True or false?PurposeTo review the students’ knowledge about reproductive body parts.
Teaching notesThis activity can create an excellent opportunity for students to learn
from one another. It is a flexible activity that could be used in many
ways, including as a revision activity. Focusing the discussion around the
differences in responses and on the cards placed under the ‘Not sure’
heading will be more beneficial to the students than focusing on what they
already agree upon.
Procedure1. Divide the class into groups of 4-6 students.
2. Give each group an envelope containing the ‘True’, ‘False’ and ‘Not
sure’ headings on coloured paper and the statement cards.
3. Ask the students to place the ‘True’, ‘False’ and ‘Not sure’ cards on
the table or floor. One by one, they should read each statement and
discuss under which heading it should be placed.
4. When all groups have completed the activity, allow them time to view
the responses of other groups.
DiscussionPoints for discussion could include:
• Why were statements placed under 'Not sure’?
• Is it important to agree?
• How can you find out if something is true or false?
• Which statements were more difficult to answer?
• Which statements would you like to find out more information on?
