Flouting and sinking

     بِسْم الله الرحمن الرحيم

This morning teacher Huda setup a science activity for the children.  It was about floating and sinking.  The children helped to prepare by choosing small objects from the classroom, we filled a bowl with water to test the objects to see which items would float or sink. We put the items on a tray beside the bowl of water. 

Malak was very exited and watched carefully to what was happening  to all of the items that we were going to test, two friends had taken turns, one item sank and the other floated the  teacher explained the result, Malak now realities what the difference is between floating and sinking.  

when Malak has a turn the teacher will ask her what will happen to the item, she  chose to test  (spoon ), Malak said its going to sink, after testing Malak was proud of herself. 

Later in the day while out side malak had great time playing with the water. She  played the floating and sinking game with her friends.


       

Review of learning 

• Language development: Using descriptive words to express ideas and opinions.
• Make connections with real life experiences.
• Promote scientific thinking: predictions, observations, comparison, reasoning, data gathering, experimentation and evaluation
• Hand-Eye Coordination and Control
• Cause and Effect
• Concentration

What to next ? 

We will keep on supporting you to explore more about science and ways to express your self :)
