Introduction
Create a Science Learning Centre in the classroom. Display reference books, books with fun
experiments, posters, science club journals etc. Have also a collection of science equipment commonly
used in the Science laboratory. Make sure they are labelled. You may wish to also have two similar potted
plants, one placed in an area where theres sunlight and one where theres no or minimal sunlight. This
will come in useful later on in the unit (refer to pages 86-87 of the Textbook). If any pupil belongs to a
Science club, have them speak to the class about the activities in their club. It would also be a good idea
to display the website addresses of any Science clubs for pupils in Singapore. Pupils should be able to use
the materials and return them to the Learning Centre easily. You may assign pupils some tasks related to
the theme of this unit. Include extension work for higher ability pupils and practice work for special needs
pupils.
1. Greet the pupils. Ask whether theres a student absent or not and why. Revise the
previous material.
2. Discuss the unit title on page 74 of the Textbook with pupils.
