Lesson Overview |

|
Title |
|||
|
Lesson Focus: Shadows,
Change over time
|
|||
|
[kt1]Learning Objectives (Content & Technology): Students will conduct a science experiment to record
the change of shadows and record data on a data sheet, coupling events of
their school day with changes in the shadows.
As appropriate for their developmental level, students will also write
using emergent spellings, telling about each event. Finally, they will describe why they think
the shadows change. |

Content TEKS/Standards: SCI. TEKS 112.2
K.1, K.2, K.4, K.5, K.6, K.7 |

[kt4]Cognitive Theory - Bloom’s Taxonomy: |
|
||
|
Explain briefly: When coupled with classroom activities, students
will be using all the learning styles and intelligences. The technology activity itself
incorportates the visual/spatial, kinesthetic, naturalistic, and verbal
linguistic intelligences and can be structured easitly to fit all the
learning styles. In cognition, students
must not only report changes in the shadows location but analyze why they
think that actually occurs. |

|
Lesson Implementation |
||||
|
[kt5]Instructional Strategies: |
|
|||
|
1.
Students will complete a variety of classroom
activities within the Shadows unit, encompassing all the learning styles and
intelligences |
||||
|
2.
Students will use a paper plate and pencil to make
a "sundial." |
||||
|
3.
Students will "visit" the sundial at
various times through the day and record (on a data sheet) the change in the
location of the shadow cast by the pencil. |
||||
|
4.
Students will use the tip lab to transfer their
data, relate the changing shadow to various activities in their normal day
through the use of the stamp pad. |
||||
|
5.
Students will also
use emergent writing (or dictation) to explain those activities and to
describe why they think the shadow moves. |
||||
|
|
||||
|
[kt6]Accommodation/Modification Options:
Instead of emergent writing, students could dictate
explanations and descriptions. |
||||
|
|
||||
|
Prerequisite Student Skills: Students should know the basics of Kid Pix,
including the stamp pad and text box functions. |
||||
|
|
||||
|
Time Frame (Example: 45 minutes, 2 hours, ongoing all year): Lab session will only take 1- 1 hour session. However, the other classroom activities
could fill at least one week of activities.) |
