Science
Science outcomes- which can be seen, heard, felt, tasted or smelled either directly by an individual or indirectly by a measuring
device e.g. a ruler, camera or thermometer.
Overview/Science question:
What is chemical science? What are the different objects in the school? What does it made of? And what part of the body we use
to find the objects? How does this object feel? What shape is this object? How are the ends of this object the same or different?
What do you think this object is made of? What is the objects name?
Assessment
Diagnostic Assessment
How will you assess the students prior
knowledge and skills.
Formative Assessment
Through what other evidence will students
demonstrate achievement of the desired results?
Summative Assessment
Through what authentic performance task will
students demonstrate the desired
understandings?
Observations
Anecdotal records

Learning Steps
Tuning In:
As we already done the mind map of the school before. Review students
what we going to do today and purpose of the lesson observe the objects.
Create a class KWL chart- what I Know, what I Wonder and at
conclusion of unit what l Learned.
Explain that students will go for ar walk around the school to explore the object
they observed and the materials it is made of. Explain that students will first look
at objects in their classroom to help them observe and describe objects and the
materials that they are made of. Using one everyday object, model this process
by asking students questions,
Country
Mind on maps and objects observation
The name game
Making sense of materials
Waterproof wonders
Location
time.
Collect a range of objects that are made of different materials that have different
properties, for example, strength, flexibility, hardness, such as: Class recycling
objects near the book corner.
Take a familiar object, for example, a pencil, and ask students what they might
say if they felt the pencil when it was inside the box. Ask questions, such as:
How does this object feel?
What shape is this object?
How are the ends of this object the same or different?
What do you think this object is made of?
What is the objects name?
Display the contents of the Feely box and discuss how objects can also be made
of more than one material, for example, spoons can be made from metal, plastic
or wood. Ask students to suggest reasons why the same object would be made
from different materials.
Play a game on the mat with whole class by hiding some different objects in the
back and class will ask them questions regarding the objects.
Make a word chart for display.
suggest why some materials are more suitable than others to make particular
objects draw a picture of an object made of an unsuitable and a suitable
material.
Review the class picture map and ask the students to recall what the objects in the
school environment were made of, for example, metal, wood, concrete, brick or plastic.
Ask students to suggest why these were used. For example, they are strong and easy to
build with and they are waterproof. Discuss students experiences of what objects
outside the classroom are made of and ask What happens to different materials when
they get wet?. Discuss different ways that materials can get wet outside (rain, school
sprinklers, dew, students spilling drinks).
Use small container and Introduce the selection of materials the students will test (pop
sticks, white crepe paper, writing paper and plastic). Put a sample, a label and a
description of each material in the class science journal.
Week 5- Location
Tunning in what we learning this week. What they feel about their learning.
Share the ideas and different objects observation with class.
Use the objects that available in the class and make a special object for
class.
Give a reflection on the object what they made.
Ask question like:
To elicit what students understand about objects, materials and the use of materials for
particular purposes, ask students questions, such as:
What is your object?
What material is your object made of?
What can you tell us about the materials you used?
Why did you use that material for the object and not another material? For
example, using plastic and not paper.
Finding Out:
Every day on while science lesson student are welcomed to write about their new
object that they find on the white board.
Sorting Out:
Observe and compare the different objects. Participate equally while pair to pair
and class discussion.
Going Further:
Students take on the challenge of finding out about another objects in school and
at home.
