Lesson Plan for Primary 1 - Basic Science and Technology - ater (meaning And Sources) + Athletics (simple Ju

Title: Discovering Water and Exploring Simple Jumps Grade: Primary 1 Subject: Basic Science and Technology and Physical Education (PE) Time: 60 minutes (30 minutes for science and 30 minutes for PE) --- ### Part 1: Basic Science and Technology #### Topic: Water (Meaning and Sources) #### Objectives: 1. **Knowledge**: Students will understand what water is and identify its different sources. 2. **Skills**: Students will practice observing and identifying sources of water. 3. **Values**: Students will appreciate the importance of water in daily life. #### Materials Needed: - Pictures of different water sources - A small clear container of water - Chart paper and markers - Water Drop song (optional) #### Procedure: 1. **Introduction (5 minutes)**: - Start with a simple question: "What do you drink when you are thirsty?" Most kids will say "water." - Show students the container of water and ask them to describe it (e.g., color, taste, and use). 2. **Presentation (10 minutes)**: - **Meaning of Water**: Explain briefly what water is (a liquid that we drink, use to wash, clean, and help plants grow). - **Sources of Water**: Use pictures to introduce different sources of water such as rain, rivers, lakes, wells, and taps. - Engage students by asking them to name any other sources of water they know. 3. **Activity (10 minutes)**: - Show the students the pictures and ask them to identify and name the sources of water shown in each picture. - Group Activity: Divide the class into small groups and give each group chart paper and markers to draw and label various sources of water. 4. **Review (5 minutes)**: - Have each group present their chart to the class. - Reinforce the key points by summarizing the sources of water. 5. **Song (Optional, if time permits, 5 minutes)**: - Teach the students a simple "Water Drop" song to help memorize the sources of water. --- ### Part 2: Physical Education (Athletics) #### Topic: Simple Jumps #### Objectives: 1. **Knowledge**: Students will learn the basics of simple jumping techniques. 2. **Skills**: Students will practice and improve their jumping ability. 3. **Values**: Students will understand the importance of physical activity. #### Materials Needed: - Whistle - Cones or markers - Soft mats (if available) #### Procedure: 1. **Warm-Up (5 minutes)**: - Begin with some light warm-up activities such as jogging in place, arm circles, and stretching. 2. **Introduction to Jumps (5 minutes)**: - Explain the importance of jumping in various sports and everyday activities. - Demonstrate simple jumps: standing jump, double-leg hop, and jumping over a line. 3. **Skill Practice (15 minutes)**: - Station 1: Standing Jumps – Students practice jumping on the spot. - Station 2: Double-Leg Hops – Students hop forward and backward. - Station 3: Line Jumps – Place a rope or line on the ground and have students jump over it back and forth. 4. **Activity/Game (5 minutes)**: - **Jumping Relay**: Organize a simple relay race where students jump to a certain point and back before tagging the next member of their team. 5. **Cool Down and Review (5 minutes)**: - Perform some stretching exercises to cool down. - Ask a few students to demonstrate a jump and describe what they learned. #### Summary: - **Science Section**: Understanding water, its meaning, and different sources. - **PE Section**: Learning and practicing simple jumping techniques. --- ### Assessment: - **Observation**: Monitor students' participation and understanding during activities. - **Group Work**: Evaluate the group charts on sources of water. - **Skill Assessment**: Check students' jumping techniques and improvement during the PE activity. ### Homework: - **Science**: Draw a source of water you find at home and bring it to class. - **PE**: Practice jumping at home with a family member. ### Reflection: - Assess the effectiveness of the lesson by noting students' engagement and understanding. - Adjust future lessons based on observation and feedback. --- This lesson plan aims to integrate basic science and physical education through engaging, interactive, and enjoyable activities.
