2018 – Mouldy Bread, Stacking Cups (p6 science)

Results from last week’s experiment was interesting. The boys had never seen orange mound and they were curious. It’s good exposure that their vocab extends beyond ‘black, grey, green’ in describing fungi. Went through recap and building in of key words via the experiment. Next on, stacking cups with food chain templates. Gave my instructions… Continue reading 2018 – Mouldy Bread, Stacking Cups (p6 science)

2018 – Fungi/Food Web Fun (p6 Science)

Materials prepared for today’s lesson. Boys were ready to grow their fungi experiment. It’s a simple p3 work, but I got them to link to the p6 topic on Interactions Within The Environment. It really got them thinking…. really hard. Part of it was they had forgotten what they had learnt in p3. After drilling… Continue reading 2018 – Fungi/Food Web Fun (p6 Science)

2018 – P5 Science (March Hols) – heat, materials

Same for my p5 girls. Promised them to do a p4 activity on heat. They were so excited! As this was a special activity, there wasn’t any printed work. Instead, I challenged them to plan an experiment task sheet with the aims/materials/processes/observation. They gathered around after completing their planning and recited what they had written… Continue reading 2018 – P5 Science (March Hols) – heat, materials

2018 – P6 Science (Interactions)

Science time! We did a simple activity on how the environment will affect things around us. Using bread, we aim to grow mould on it. Instructions are to be highlighted from the Investigating Task activity and discuss how to set the experiment up. Sprinkle, sprinkle. Recording and observing what they had just done. Part 2.… Continue reading 2018 – P6 Science (Interactions)

2018 – P6 Science – skeletal, diversity

It was the eve of Chinese New Year’s eve yesterday. It’s been proven my students had no mood for lessons, so I had to improvise. Lessons still went on for the week, but with added fun elements. Yesterday, I challenged the boys to complete as many Investigate Tasks as possible, and I put on the… Continue reading 2018 – P6 Science – skeletal, diversity
