This e-textbook combines an Avita textbook and a workbook. The study set is divided into topic blocks, which in turn consist of chapters. The updated and corrected material is presented in an age-appropriate and interesting manner. Each chapter begins with guiding questions and key concepts. To make the subject easier to acquire, the study kit includes more photos and illustrations, videos and links to related websites. Additional texts with interesting facts differ from the main text. In order to better acquire the topics covered, the textbook contains tasks and practical work that require the application of the natural scientific method and the use of ICT. Class 7 deals with vertebrate animals, their characteristics and life processes. All vertebrate groups and the metabolism, reproduction and development of vertebrates are studied. In addition to the study text and illustrations, the study set includes questions and tasks that help the student to record what he or she has read and to check the comprehension of the text. Each chapter has a set of assignments from which the teacher can assign assignments for homework, class work or grading, both individually and for the whole class. Tasks develop both creativity and critical thinking. The answers to all the tasks can be checked and evaluated by the teacher. In the case of fact-based tasks, the teacher is given the correct answers. Both teachers and students can supplement the study set with their material. The teacher can also make his / her own extras available to students. The publisher confirms that the textbook complies with the national curriculum of middle school level and the requirements for study literature established by the Minister of Education and Science.
