Lesson Plan for Science Year 5: Subject: Time: Date: Number of students: Class: Topic: Sub-topic: Year 5 Unit 7- Heat Hot or Cold? Science 1220 pm- 1320pm (60 minutes) 4 July 2013 30

Learning objective: 4.1 Understanding the temperature is an indicator of degree of hotness. Learning outcome: At the end of the class, the pupils are able to: I. II. III. IV. V. Pre-requisite knowledge: State that when a substance gains heat, it will become warmer. State that when a substance loses heat, it will become cooler. Measure temperature using the correct technique. State the metric unit of temperature. State that temperature of an object or material increases as it gains heat.

Pupils learnt about conductors of heat in Year 4. In Unit 4 of Year 5, pupils have learnt that heat is a form of energy and it can be derived from other form of energy and can be transformed into another form.

Scientific skills/ thinking skills Manipulative skills

Classifying, Predicting, Experimenting, Making conclusion.

Content

Learning activities Teachers activity Pupils activity -Pupils focus on the video.

Notes Science process skill: Observing.

Set Induction (5 minutes) Video

-Teacher shows a melting ice video.

Thinking skill: Relating

Teaching Aids: Video Eliciting ideas (7 minutes) Questioning -Teacher asks questions: -Teacher asks: a) What you feel when you touch the ice? (cold) b) What happen to the ice? (melting) -Teacher shows a basin of ice water as Restructuring Hands-on ideas (38 minutes) Activity Basin A and warm water as Basin B. -Teacher then asks: a) What you feel when you touch Basin A? (cold) b) What you feel when you touch Basin B? - Pupils topuch the water in the basin and answer the questions. -Pupils look at the thermometer and learn types of thermometer. -Pupils learn how to get the reading at the Teaching Aids: Thermometer, clamp, beaker, glass rod, wire Thinking skill: Relating. Science process skill: Observing, Classifying. -Pupils give as many examples as they could. Science process skill: Classifying.

Thinking skill: Relating.

(warm) c) What happen if the water inside the basin A and B are left for a few minutes? -Teacher explains the warm water becomes cooler because it loses heat to the surrounding. The cold water becomes warmer because it gains heat from the surrounding. When the water losses heat, it cools down. When it gains heat, it becomes warmer. -Teacher shows types of thermometer such as mercury thermometer, digital clinical thermometer and alcohol thermometer. -Teacher introduces the correct technique when using a thermometer to measure thermometer and proper way to read the marking on thermometer at the meniscus of the liquid.

meniscus of the liquid. -Pupils carry out the experiment under teachers guidance. -Pupils write down the reading of the experiment.
