2018 – P6 Science (adaptations)
I went through the same videos, same lesson topic, same key words that I taught to my p6 boys yesterday to today’s p6 girls. Same same but different results. Contents are the same, but the presentation is different. Another 2 pieces of masterpieces by my p6 girls. Challenged them too to condense what they had… Continue reading 2018 – P6 Science (adaptations)
2018 – P6 Science 2 (March Hols) – adaptations
Back to back lessons are back breaking, but I enjoyed myself, sans the tiredness of lessons with no breaks. The last lesson of the day, is still Science. Another of my p6 class. We continued the lesson from previous week. I like the flexibility of doing different topics concurrently, even if I have 2 p6… Continue reading 2018 – P6 Science 2 (March Hols) – adaptations
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 (food web)
The boys have been set in their routines. Do seat work/revision/lessons before getting their hands on their Investigating Task activity. The always highlight of every lesson for all my students. I like to give instructions with open endings to allow space for my students to think. This is the interpretation for the boys. Totally different… Continue reading 2018 – P6 Science (food web)
2018 – Back To Fun! – food web
Post Exam lessons. Started on Food Chain and Food Web. My p6 girls were happy they had a break over the drill and grill exam papers practice. After going through the basics of the ecosystem, the girls poured over the cards and prepared to build a massive food web. Massive and messy food web. Good… Continue reading 2018 – Back To Fun! – food web
2018 – Rice & Food! (P6 science)
Today’s lesson. Rice and food. Pun intended. Not cooking rice to eat, of course. It’s for experiment! The first hands on was on frictional forces. The trick to lifting the bottle with the stuck chopstick is that the rice grains need to be compact enough to be able to ‘grip’ the chopstick. That’s frictional force.… Continue reading 2018 – Rice & Food! (P6 science)
2018 – Shooting & Tearing (p6 science)
Preparing for the challenge! They started practicing with their rubber bands before the actual showdown. D getting ready for his first shot. Not bad! JY first attempt was impressive too! Both did 5 rounds to determine the winner. Making connections to the activity. Got them to write down the energy changes taking place in their… Continue reading 2018 – Shooting & Tearing (p6 science)
