Lesson Plan for Primary 2 - Basic Science and Technology - lay + Identification Of Icons And Their Uses + Mo

### Lesson Plan: Basic Science and Technology **Grade:** Primary 2 **Duration:** 60 minutes #### Topic: Clay + Identification of Icons and Their Uses + Movement and Sounds Made by Man, Animals, and Machines --- ### Objectives: By the end of the lesson, students will be able to: 1. Understand the basic properties and uses of clay. 2. Identify various icons and explain their uses. 3. Describe different movements and sounds made by humans, animals, and machines. ### Materials Needed: - Samples of clay - Picture cards of common icons (e.g., recycle, Wi-Fi, play/pause buttons) - Audio clips of sounds made by humans, animals, and machines - Visual aids of animals and machines - Sticky notes - Drawing supplies (crayons, markers, paper) - Whiteboard and markers ### Lesson Outline: #### **Introduction (10 minutes)** 1. **Welcome and Introduction:** - Greet the students and introduce the day's topic. - Briefly discuss what they know about clay, common icons, and sounds made by people, animals, and machines. 2. **Objective Sharing:** - Share the objectives of the lesson with students. #### **Part 1: Clay (15 minutes)** 1. **Discussion and Demonstration:** - Explain what clay is, showing the actual samples. - Discuss the properties of clay—color, texture, and how it feels when wet or dry. - Demonstrate simple clay shaping techniques. 2. **Activity:** - Let students feel the clay and try to mold simple shapes like balls or snakes. 3. **Wrap-up:** - Ask a few students to share what they have created with clay. #### **Part 2: Identification of Icons and Their Uses (15 minutes)** 1. **Explanation and Identification:** - Show picture cards with common icons (e.g., trash bin, play/pause, Wi-Fi). - Explain what each icon means and where they might see it in their daily life. 2. **Activity:** - Divide the students into small groups and give each group some sticky notes. - Ask groups to match icons with their uses by sticking the notes next to the correct icon on a poster board. 3. **Review:** - Go over the answers as a class to ensure understanding. #### **Part 3: Movement and Sounds Made by Man, Animals, and Machines (15 minutes)** 1. **Discussion:** - Explain how different creatures and objects make sounds and move. - Use visual aids to show different animals and machines. 2. **Audio Clips and Identification Game:** - Play different audio clips of sounds (e.g., a dog barking, a train honking, people talking). - Ask students to identify the sound and describe what makes that sound. 3. **Movement Activity:** - Ask the class to stand up. - Call out names of different humans, animals, and machines—students should act out how they think each moves (e.g., hop like a rabbit, march like a soldier, move arms like a robot). #### **Conclusion (5 minutes)** 1. **Recap:** - Quickly recap the day's lessons on clay, icons, and the sounds/movements of humans, animals, and machines. 2. **Questions and Answers:** - Allow students to ask any questions. 3. **Homework Assignment:** - Ask students to draw their favorite icon at home and explain it during the next class. - Ask them to observe sounds in their environment and share new ones they find next time. --- ### Notes: - Ensure every student's participation to keep the class interactive. - Use praise and encouragement to boost confidence in sharing their work and ideas. - Be ready to provide additional support for students who may need it, ensuring no one feels left out.
