TAILIEUCHUNG - Lecture Science 1 - Associate Degree in Education: Lecture 25 - Dr. Arshad Bashir

Choose a specific topic and grade level that you will discuss and elaborate on. The task is to identify age-appropriate activities that teach concept of choice to children in elementary grades. Use hands-on inquiry activities if possible and to make them intriguing. Ask the following questions: what kind of question could children in elementary investigate? What kind of challenge could they solve, and what concept would they learn as a result? What kind of learning outcomes could be expected at that age level? | Lecture # 25 SCIENCE 1 ASSOCIATE DEGREE IN EDUCATION DESIGNING FORCE AND MOTION ACTIVITIES DISCUSS AND ELABORATE Choose a specific topic and grade level that you will discuss and elaborate on. The task is to identify age-appropriate activities that teach concept of choice to children in elementary grades. Use hands-on inquiry activities if possible and to make them intriguing. Ask the following questions: what kind of question could children in elementary investigate? What kind of challenge could they solve, and what concept would they learn as a result? What kind of learning outcomes could be expected at that age level? Daily Life Examples Motion can be observed in everyday life all the time (vehicles move around us, we walk, leaves are blown by the wind, raindrops fall from the sky, and rivers run downstream). The forces behind each motion and the exact nature of the motion are less intuitive. Therefore, the concepts of force and motion require age-appropriate teaching and learning over years. Prospective teaches should develop a range of ideas and activities suitable for children in the early elementary grades. Balls and ramps (Example for Force and Motion) You can provide children with ramps and tubes, allowing them to build roadways and explore the different behaviors of balls as they roll down inclines, up hills, and around bends. During these activities, they are continuously engaged in exploration, discovery, and problem solving. As they explore, they observe and share their experiences in groups using descriptive language. They make predictions and draw initial conclusions. Children can investigate the effect of gravity (in their own words, it would be the ‘pull’ of the Earth) on objects falling to the ground or rolling down an incline. Children can observe how the steepness of a ramp influences a ball’s acceleration due to gravity. They can compare different balls travelling down ramps and observe that the size and weight of the balls do not affect how
