Learning Pack for Biological Diversity – Unit 1 (Science in Action 9)
2
‘Focus in Action’ UNIT LEARNING PACKS
These booklets are designed to provide Grade 9 students with all the resources needed to review or reinforce concepts, covered in the Alberta Science Curriculum, and included in the Grade 9
Science Final Exam in June. There are circumstances in which an entire unit may be missed and covering the concepts from that unit (for the final exam) can be difficult. This can happen for a number of reasons:
Students – new to the school – register throughout the year (from other provinces, school jurisdictions or countries)
Students may be ill or have surgery and often can miss one or more units
Students have extended holidays throughout the year
Transfers from another school, who have completed the units in a different order
For additional support, students are directed to the Edquest Middle School Science Website or, Scienceman Resource ( www.scienceman.com/scienceinaction/pgs/hot_9u1.html )
