I have at least 4 years experience of teaching. I teach both online and offline, I teach both kids and elderly ones. I can take biology, chemistry,then physics to some extent. Likewise,I had my Thaanawiyy certificate where I graduated from Zumratul-Adabiyyatul-Kamalyyah Ilorin, Kwara State, Nigeria,where I graduated with Mitāz(first class).This simply mean that I am also an Arabic and Islamic Teacher , I can take Al-Qur'an together with Tajweed,and Other Arabic Subjects. I am a passionate, enduring, understanding and Jovial teacher.

The area of my specialty and where I have achieved Most is Quran and Arabic language.

Degree: Bachelors of Science - University: BSc(Ed)

Degree: Thaanawiyy

The syllabus is designed in such a way that it has all the fundamental topics that one need to study about the living organism . The syllabus of class 7 is very helpful for the students as they guide them by giving some vital information on the academic session.

• Learning Objectives:

  UNIT 1:Tissue

  UNIT 2:Kingdom Classification

  UNIT 3:Plant Life

  UNIT 5:Health and Hygiene

• Course Outline:

  Unit 1. Tissue

  Plant Tissues

  ●Tissue – definition

  ●Classification of plant tissues:  Meristematic tissue and Permanent tissue (simple and complex)

  ●Meristematic tissues – characteristics (any two), simple structure, location, function, examples.

  ●Simple permanent tissues – collenchyma, parenchyma, sclerenchyma (simple structure, location and functions of each) and their examples.

  ●Complex permanent tissues – phloem, xylem- function only. (Elements of phloem and xylem not to be mentioned).

  Animal Tissues

  ●Epithelial tissue – simple location and function (types of epithelial tissue not to be mentioned).

  ●Connective tissue – location and functions of bone, cartilage, blood, ligament and tendon.

  ●Muscular tissue: location and one function of:

  ○striated (voluntary or skeletal muscle),○unstriated (involuntary/ smooth muscle),○cardiac (specialised muscle).

  ●Nerve tissue: parts of the neuron (cell body, Dendron, axon).

   

  Unit 2. Kingdom Classification

  ●Meaning and concept of classification

  ●Need and advantages of Classification

  ●Characteristics of each kingdom with suitable examples:

  • Monera: bacteria – shape; useful and harmful bacteria ( daily life applications to be discussed);
  • Protista: Amoeba – their basic structure and life processes (nutrition, respiration, locomotion, excretion and reproduction – by multiple fission and binary);
  • Fungi: basic structure of mould, their nutrition and respiration in mould, useful fungi and harmful fungi (daily life applications to be discussed);
  • Plantae: characteristics and examples ( plantae classification is not to be discussed);
  • Animalia
  • Vertebrates.
  • Invertebrates: nine major Phyla, Porifera, Cnidaria, Coelenterata, Nematoda, Platyhelminthes, Annelida, Arthropoda, Mollusca, Echinodermata)

   

  Unit 3. Plant Life

  Photosynthesis

   

  ●     Definition and  basic process, factors affecting photosynthesis: (light, carbon dioxide, water, chlorophyll), significance of photosynthesis, setup.

  ●     Experiment to demonstrate the photosynthesis process.

   

  Respiration

   

  ●     The basic process, word equation; respiration – a process which releases energy; types of respiration in plants: two types (anaerobic and aerobic: basic concept, word equations for both, examples).

  ●     Respiration and photosynthesis in plants are different processes.

   

   

  Unit 4. Human Body

   

  Excretory System

  ●     Excretion – Definition

  ●     Organs and their excretory products (kidneys, lungs, sweat glands);

  ●     Renal Excretory System – kidneys, urinary bladder, ureter, urethra ( functions and location to be explained along with diagram);

  ●     Role of kidneys infiltration of blood through millions of nephrons (the structure of nephron not to be discussed); common disorders of the urinary system: Urinary Tract Infection, kidney stone.

   

  Nervous System

  ●     Main parts: brain, spinal cord, nerves.

  ●     Brain: cerebrum, cerebellum, medulla oblongata (location and function).

  ●     Spinal cord: location and function.

  ●     Nerves: what are nerves; their general function.

   

  Unit 5. Health and Hygiene

   

  Allergy

  ●     Concept of allergy

  ●     Allergens: Common allergens like dust, pollen grain, mites, strong sunlight and particular food items.

  ●     Entry routes of allergens: mouth, nose, skin.

  ●     Symptoms of allergic reaction.

  ●     Types of allergies: seasonal and perennial with examples.

  ●     Precautions and care to be taken by a person who is exposed to allergies.

   

   

• Recomended Audience:

  The audience of this course is students of Grade-7   from ICSE Board. All the Chapters are well designed and its coverage as per latest curriculum released by the board. Still Student have complete flexibility to enhance or modify the course coverage during the course of learning process with Teacher. We are expecting that students of Grade-7 should drive their classes with Teacher as per chapters mentioned and also as per syllabus of their school and applicable School district or Board.

• Pre-Requisite Requirement:

  For attending this course, prior knowledge of Grade-6  Biology    is required, this course assumes that students have prior experience with all the topics of  Biology  of Grade-6 . This is not an Introductory class for absolute beginners on the subject Biology   of Grade-7  . So therefore,  Participants should already be familiar with the basic concepts..
