Investigative Task

Started using my very own materials to kick start my p5 Science class. Recapped their p3 and p4 work. Revisiting is indeed necessary for children to retain what they had learnt. Briefed them on how to use the materials and lay down my expectations. Lesson recap was on magnets and the girls were excited to make their very own magnetic bookmark. Creativity comes to play when time was given for them to design their bookmark with with the key concepts for the topic, and the results was amazing. Oh yeah, Science is fun indeed! Recording observations and firming their conclusion are part of the learning process thought, and this will tell me how much my student has learnt and captured.  Reflection is a must for me, to allow me to understand my students’ inner thoughts and as a feedback for me too. What works and what not, to better improve my teaching pedagogies. Next up, classifying animals. Not the easy cut and paste like what I will do for my P3 students. Same piece of work, but different ways to go about executing it. I challenged them to think how to cut all and paste in the tiny boxes. Took them some time to digest the information and attempted a few times of suggestions before giving my approval for the last one, ie, to stack and paste the animals and make them 3D, not flatly paste them.  Lesson over and they bemoaned over the time passing too soon.
