1 Learn about the aims of the course; expectations of the course; understand how they can achieve credits; be aware of the activities and tasks likely to be part of the course
Discussions of what the students feel they want to get out of the course; what they are going to learn about;
practical activities to give them a taster of the activities on the course, e.g. visit to shops/ use of ICT to research/
visit the areas of interest in the locality
All students to have a timetable/ schedule of activities for the year ahead; and be aware of what the course entailsThis qualification is internally assessed by the centre staff (eg teachers, support workers) and externally moderated by OCR. Assessments are set by OCR.Units will be graded Pass or Fail.

teacher demonstrating this first.
The teacher could demonstrate and explain
how to read weighing scales and encourage
learners to weigh different objects to the
nearest labelled division.
The teacher could shows learners a pair
of kitchen scales and weigh various items
identified and described by learners. The
teacher could also encourage learners to read
the scale and recognise abbreviated forms.
This activity could develop into capacity and a
discussion of litres in full and
abbreviated forms.
The teacher could ask learners a quiz of true
and false questions about capacity such as:
there are 100ml in a litre, a can of pop holds
330ml, temperature is measured in degrees.
This will encourage a discussion and test prior
knowledge. Images of jugs, thermometers etc
