    aashie24
    This lesson plan aims to teach year 7 students about the water cycle. Students will be grouped and instructed on the key parts of the water cycle through a PowerPoint presentation. They will take notes and complete a worksheet to demonstrate their understanding. An experiment using glass bowls, cling film, and weights will allow students to observe the water cycle in action. The next day, students will analyze their experiment results. Vocabulary terms like evaporation and condensation will be emphasized.

    INTRODUCTION 20 minutes
    Connecting, Engaging and Modelling Inquiry
    MAIN BODY- 70 minutes
    Guiding Inquiry and Practice
    CONCLUSION- 10 minutes
    Sharing, Explaining and Reviewing Inquiry



    Engage:
    Explain the learning intention written on the
    board.

    Start with the Short recap (Formative
    Assessment) at the start of the lesson of the
    concept studied in Lesson 3 in Unit Outline. (Slide
    13 on Water Cycle PowerPoint) PRIOR
    KNOWLEDGE

    Watch video on Slide 12 on PowerPoint showing
    a water molecule in the water cycle.

    Students write the story of water molecule in their
    own words in Inquiry Journal. MOTIVATION















    Explain & Elaborate:
    Going through the PowerPoint slides 14 -20
    on water cycle and students take notes as
    well. Water Cycle PowerPoint - 30 min
    Formative Assessment: After going through
    each slide asking random students to reiterate what I
    explained INTELLECTUAL ENGAGEMENT WITH
    KNOWLEDGE

    Elaborate:
    Handing out worksheets to students and they
    complete them in given time and stick it in
    their notebooks for later reference. (Students
    are allowed to use their notes or discuss with
    partners) Worksheet -10 min
    Formative Assessment: Students complete
    the worksheet.

    Explore:
    After this, tell students that they will be
    conducting a practical to see water cycle in
    action. Explain the instructions to them
    showing the equipment and students write a
    hypothesis in their practical book THINKING
    SCIENTIFICALLY

    Elaborate:
    Divide students in groups of 4 and they set up
    the equipment for water cycle experiment and
    leave it in sunlight to observe for the next day.
    Water Cycle Experiment - 30 min
    Formative Assessment: Conversation with the
    students while they set up equipment related
    to the concept taught.


    Evaluate:
    After this, I randomly select students and they
    write new learnt words on the word wall.
    OPPORTUNITIES

    Evaluate:
    Students write a reflection at the end in their
