  • Generating and testing hypotheses (8)

Reading a story I would stop and ask the students about what animals are alike and what is different about the animals.

 

Have them to draw different kinds of animals and tell me what is different and what is the same about the animals.

 

Bring groups of children to the front . Have the children sitting down tell what is alike about the children that are in groups. Also have them tell what is different about the children in groups.

 

Ask open ended questions about the animals as the students play.

 

Have the children act out in centers what was discussed in group time.

 

Have them draw pictures about what was discussed in group time. For example, they could draw the stages of how a tree grows.

 

Teach them an activity where they have to practice it everyday over and over. This helps with routine.

 

By using the flip camera or iPod a demonstration can be illustrated or spoken and the children can imitate this in centers.

 

Have them do science experiments and ask them questions about what they think will happen and why.

 

Pause while reading a story to ask children what will happen next. Discuss their predictions at end of story.

Technology-Supported Examples

Identifying similarities and differences (1)

Play a matching game on the computer to tell what animals are alike. Also use the ipod to listen and compare the animal sound.

 

Using the flip camera to make a vodcast showing the similarities and the differences of objects in the centers demonstrated by the teachers. This can be used in the room or viewed at home with parents.

 

 

Homework and practice (4)

Send web site home of matching games so parent can pull them up and get involved playing the game with their child.

 

Download movies on flash drive of sorting activities demonstrated by children or teachers.

 

Could scan their drawings of what has been discussed in group time. This could be made into a slide show.

 

 

Generating and testing hypotheses (8)

make a video of children giving their predictions of different animals and post it on your wiki page. Also use the ipod so the students can make predictions of the different sounds that the animals make.

 

Making a video of a science experiment. The teacher can go through the process of the experiment asking questions of what they think will happen next. These ideas can be tested to show if they are successful or not. If not successful what can they do to make it successful.

 

Make a video of birds feeding from a bird feeder. Ask the children why they think the birds will come or not, how much food do they think they will eat, why do you think the bird feeder was there?
