Common questions

What do Year 7 students learn about living things & life cycles?

Features of living things, plants and animals, needs and life cycles. At Year 7, our resources focus on: describing how light, water, temperature and salt affect living things; identifying variables in a plant growth investigation; calculating an average from repeated measurements; interpreting results to find the best conditions for growth.

Where should we start?

Start with the Level 1 or Level 2 worksheet, then move up a level. Finish with the topic test if there is one.

Are answers included?

Yes — every worksheet has an answer sheet. Maths answer sheets show the working; English tasks include model answers or success criteria.

How to use these resources

  1. Read the short explanation together before starting the questions.
  2. Where a worksheet suggests a simple experiment at home, try it: seeing beats reading.
  3. Ask "How do you know?" so answers are backed by evidence.
  4. Use the answer sheet to talk about why an answer is right, not just whether it is.
