04/19/234
Students were ecstatic about the exploration of static electricity.
04/19/235
This field trip proved to be a hair raising event!

Challenging problem
Students worked with a partner to create a circuit board
04/19/237
Challenging problem
Students made a recording device.

Working with real objects
Students created their own wetland “critter” using recycled materials.

Working with real objects
Given a basic creature and an understanding of its role in the wetland ecosystem, students engineered their own “critter”.

Working with real objects
Next, they produced their play using a wetland backdrop and newly created animals. This was filmed as an i-movie

Creating Something That Works
These are examples of student- built moving electrical devices made to culminate the science units “Electricity and Magnetism” and “Mechanism using Electricity”
Students were encouraged to use recycled materials

How Do You Know That Students are Engaged? Students are quiet and listen carefully to instruction.
Students successfully collaborate in small groups
Students successfully problem solve to wire a functioning circuit board that is able to record and replay voices. Students are also able to produce a play and i-Movie
Students are excited to share what they had learned with parents, friends, and school staff members.

How is the Content Engaging? Very hands on Students use background knowledge learned
previously in the classroom. Students are exposed to different
materials and teaching styles Students experience total immersion in
science activities Students can see future application of new
knowledge

What Would the Students be Able to Do After This Lesson? Plan, design and build a vehicle that moves using electricity (batteries). Using circuits and switches, students build on the knowledge they learned in the grade 4 unit “Building devices that move”
Work safely and know the dangers of electricity.
Use technology such as i-Movie Collaborate and share knowledge to create a unique product
