  3. Vision Inquiring Minds, Scientific Thinkers CHIJ Primary (Toa Payoh) What they are learning in P6

  4. Adaptations • Goose/Flying Frog 2015 • Turtle/ Camel 2014 • Shell Animal 2013 • Why do animals adapt? • Get air, water and food • cope with physical conditions such as temperature and light • Protect themselves from their enemies • Reproduce

  5. Vision Inquiring Minds, Scientific Thinkers CHIJ Primary (Toa Payoh) Learning outcomes for Primary Science http://www.moe.edu.sg Syllabuses Sciences 2008 Primary Science Syllabus (pdf)

  6. Vision Inquiring Minds, Scientific Thinkers CHIJ Primary (Toa Payoh) Skills • Observing • Comparing • Classifying • Communicating • Inferring • Using apparatus and equipment • Analysing • Generating possibilities • Evaluating • Formulating hypothesis • Predicting

  7. Vision Inquiring Minds, Scientific Thinkers CHIJ Primary (Toa Payoh) Assessment • CA I (100 marks) – Term 1 Week 9 • SA I (100 marks) - Term 2 Week 8 • Prelim (100 marks) – 21 Aug • PSLE- 29 Sep

  8. Vision Inquiring Minds, Scientific Thinkers CHIJ Primary (Toa Payoh) Holistic Assessment • Assessment Format- CAI, SAI & Prelim • 1hr 45 min

  9. Vision Inquiring Minds, Scientific Thinkers CHIJ Primary (Toa Payoh) Teaching Approach 5E Learning Cycle Model • Engage • Explore • Explain • Elaborate • Evaluate

  10. Engage, Explore through PLAY

  11. Engage, Explore through INVESTIGATION

  12. Engage, Explore through Concept Cartooning

  13. Explain, Elaborate, Evaluate • IJ Worksheets • Science Journal • Past PSLE Questions

  14. Answering Open-Ended Questions 4 girls stretch their rubberbands to different lengths. Explain which rubberband will travel the shortest distance? • Choose (Amy) • Read the data (Her rubberband stretches the least) • Concept (least elastic potential energy) • Link to Question (least kinetic energy)

  15. PSLE 2015 Routine List 2 variables that must be kept constant in the experiment. Variation Why must we use the same ball for the experiment?

  16. Common Mistake in Energy Explain why there is a louder sound when the ball is dropped from a higher place? More Gravitational potential converted to Kinetic Energy More Gravitational potential converted to More Kinetic Energy

  17. Relate to daily experiences Look at that. What do you think is that? What do you think will happen?

  18. Newspaper/ Internet

  19. Vision Inquiring Minds, Scientific Thinkers CHIJ Primary (Toa Payoh) What can be done at home? • Have a revision schedule • (By Sections or by Topics) • Time management (5 minutes of checking time, MCQs-1.5 minutes, OE-4 minutes) • Mastery of Science concepts and key words (P3-P5) • Use mind maps and concept maps to draw connections with key concepts • Get them to do a research on the internet and answer your questions • Work with the teacher to bring out the best in your child 

  20. Additional Support • Extra Supplementary Classes in Term 3 Class Target • As & A*

  21. Secondary School Matters

  22. THANK YOU Vision Inquiring Minds, Scientific Thinkers
