They manipulate materials to observe how light and sound are produced, and how changes can be made to light and sound effects. They examine how light and sound are used in everyday life and by a variety of cultures. They make predictions; share ideas and sort information about light and sound and represent and communicate their understandings in a variety of ways.
Science
LESSON OUTCOME:
(Key Knowledge and Skills students should achieve in the lesson taken from relevant curriculum documents.) Understand that light can come from a variety of sources and can be observed . Understand that some objects reflect light from light sources instead of producing their own light.
LESSON STRUCTURE: Time 1.55-2.30 Students sit in a circle Introduction (Set): Teaching Approaches Experiencing the known and the new (authentic pedagogy) learning is situated, contextual and grounded in the real world and connects school learning with practical application in a real life context) Applying appropriately and creatively(functional pedagogy) learners expand their ways of making and expressing meaning in effective and powerful ways. Analysing functionally(critical pedagogy) interpret the purpose of texts the human purposes, functions and motivation by situating texts. Learners engage in critique to analyse perspectives and connect conceptual learning to causes and effects. Conceptualising by naming(didactic teaching metalanguage and wide frame of reference for meaning-making)
