You also need to add in another 30 hours of practical work into this plan. I haven´t added it on because I assume you will be doing it as you go through the course
and not as a separate block of 30 hours! Feel free to merge/change the lesson titles as required. I have just used the outline straight from the IB subject guide but
obviously you will have specific lessons as opposed to the general titles I have given here! Also, if you cover something from one topic in another – just merge the
rows as required. This is simply a guideline to help formulate your scheme of work – do feel free to manipulate the plan to suit yourself!
