Micro-Organisms
There are some organisms that are too small to see with the naked eye; we call these micro organisms. Some micro-organisms cause us harm whilst others are beneficial.
Micro-organisms can be harmful. Bacteria and viruses can invade our bodies and make us ill. Some microbes, like moulds and fungi grow on our food and make it rot.

There are many small organisms in the world that we call micro-organisms or microbes. Some are harmful - they may cause illness. Bacteria and viruses may carry diseases.
Other micro-organisms help in the production of food. Yeast is a micro-organism - a kind of fungus that produces bubbles of gas that makes bread rise. Bacteria are essential to making yoghurt and cheese.

Micro-organisms (short unit) (6b)
http://www.standards.dfes.gov.uk/schemes2/science/sci6b/?view=get
Through this unit children learn that there are many very small organisms called micro-organisms which feed, grow and reproduce and which may be harmful or beneficial. Experimental and investigative work focuses on:
-making observations -drawing conclusions -suggesting explanations for conclusions, using scientific knowledge and understanding. Work in this unit also offers children the opportunity to use scientific ideas to explain some causes of illness and decay, to relate micro-organisms to food production and to relate science to their personal health. Some of the work in this unit is likely to be undertaken in relation to the school's programme for personal, social and health education. This unit takes approximately 6 hours.
