30 October - 5 November

FOCUS / ARONGA learning intentions:

We are EXPLORING on recognising how electricity works.

We are EXPLORING on experimenting an illustration of electrical components.

We are EXPLORING on reading information about electricity and connecting our understanding of it.

Success Criteria: I can...

• Write answers to questions about electricity.
• Illustrate a robot of your own choice which shows electrical components.
• Connect information about electricity.
• Read an article about electricity.

                                                                                                     Achievement Objectives:

Explore, describe, and represent patterns and trends for everyday examples of physical phenomena, such as electricity.

                                                                                                                      Monday

• The students will first watch this about different electrical components.
• Then they will create an information sheet of the different electrical components using this site.
• Afterwards, they will draw, label and colour their own version of neon lights.
• Finally, they will draw, label and colour what it would be like during Diwali as well as the gods/goddesses of Diwali.
• The students will show cultural connection with those who celebrate Diwali.

                                                                                                                     Tuesday

The students will first watch this   about how Ironman's arc reactor works.

• In their science books the students will write and answer the questions below:

• 1. Before you read this, what are electrical components? 

  2. List stories, films, books which show electrical components in them.

  3. What similarities or consistencies are there between them.

• Students will then read the article "Explainer: How batteries and capacitors differ."
  

• They will write any keywords and scientific vocabulary which are related to electrical components.
• Finally, they will rule a 10cm by 10cm frame and draw a picture, icon, or meme that represents the concept/theme of electrical components.

OR

They will complete the "Explainer: How batteries and capacitors differ" grid.

OR

They will write notes about the article "Explainer: How batteries and capacitors differ" which summaries the main points in them.

                                                                                                                Wednesday

The students will draw a robot of their own choice which shows electrical components like in this link. If they need help with knowing the functions of the electrical components they can look at Energy Education.
