This information is the general knowledge needed for further learning of this topic.]]> 2018-09-27 12:33:40 UTC https://padlet.com/cfr5/rtyx6f7u56ap/wish/286464204 kal27 https://padlet.com/cfr5/rtyx6f7u56ap/wish/286464668 The students will be taught more details involving the various states of matter and the different properties formed. A review of mass and weight will be used to describe conservation of matter. ]]> 2018-09-27 12:34:40 UTC https://padlet.com/cfr5/rtyx6f7u56ap/wish/286464668 slp16 https://padlet.com/cfr5/rtyx6f7u56ap/wish/286467022 The students will be taught the different states of matter (solid, liquid and gas). Then they will be taught that states of matter can be changed with heating and cooling processes. Finally, they will learn that matter is not always able to be reversed and sometimes it can be reversed. It is necessary to establish an understanding of solids, liquids, and gases before teaching the processes of heating and cooling.]]> 2018-09-27 12:39:17 UTC https://padlet.com/cfr5/rtyx6f7u56ap/wish/286467022 kal27 https://padlet.com/cfr5/rtyx6f7u56ap/wish/286467171 The students will be taught  that when two or more substances are mixed a new substance with different properties is formed. Then they will be taught that no matter the reaction or change in properties, the total weight of the substance does not change.  *Mass and weight are not distinguished at this grade level*]]> 2018-09-27 12:39:31 UTC https://padlet.com/cfr5/rtyx6f7u56ap/wish/286467171 kal27 https://padlet.com/cfr5/rtyx6f7u56ap/wish/286479712 Since this experiment involves a boiling part for some of it, students will mostly observe the teacher and record data. The teacher will heat water,  soup, popcorn, chocolate chips, and butter. The students will then record what they see had happened with heating the items. Then the students will take the items to the refrigerator and let them cool for an hour. Students will then record what they observed and decide whether or not the items were able to change back to its original state. ]]> 2018-09-27 13:02:54 UTC https://padlet.com/cfr5/rtyx6f7u56ap/wish/286479712 kal27 https://padlet.com/cfr5/rtyx6f7u56ap/wish/286489000 Students will be given chocolate chips, butter, marshmallows, and mints . They will first find the weight of each item at room temperature. Next, with teacher supervision they will heat up and melt each product seperately and record the weight of it after. Lastly, the students will freeze each melted product overnight and weigh them the next day in class. After recording all of the data, students will make conclusions about conservation of mass. We will review with students the Law of Conservation of Mass and that matter cannot be created nor destroyed even after going through physical changes.]]> 2018-09-27 13:17:04 UTC https://padlet.com/cfr5/rtyx6f7u56ap/wish/286489000 kal27 https://padlet.com/cfr5/rtyx6f7u56ap/wish/291670873 Differentiated Instruction

During this time period students will begin to develop an understanding of more complicated ideas, such as cause and effect. Physically, these learners develop the ability to run and play longer. It will be important to give these learners their play time and recess time to get their energy out. During this time. students are spending more and more time with peers. These learners will enjoy being part of a team, group or club at this age.With this, they begin to form close friendships, which can lead to peer influence in the classroom. The formation of friendships can lead to peer exclusion, which will hurt the feelings of other learners and greatly impact the classroom as a whole. These learners will start seeing things from other points of view and incorporate that into their lives. Emotionally, students will have moments of insecurity and self doubt. With this, they will need lots of encouragement and support, from both the teacher and family. A supportive and comfortable environment must be created for the students to learn efficiently. During this time frame, these learners will look for the reasons behind things and ask many questions. We must acknowledge these questions and remind ourselves that no question is a bad question. Another important cognitive achievement is that these students will have a longer attention span. They will be able to sit and pay attention to something that interests them for at least 30–45 minutes. All of these developmental characteristics should be acknowledged and used when planning for the lesson. ]]> 2018-10-11 12:17:56 UTC https://padlet.com/cfr5/rtyx6f7u56ap/wish/291671134 kal27 https://padlet.com/cfr5/rtyx6f7u56ap/wish/291671466 In 5th grade, learners will typically begin to think more abstract and outside of the box. They are beginning to be able to see things as not concrete and not everything is based on facts. Learners will start understanding how certain things are connecting in a sequence such as the effects of behaviors and moods that have on others from just one person, extending on their knowledge of cause and effect from the second grade development level. Physically, learners at this developmental level are beginning to show improvement in controlling their handwriting, handling of tools and develop a stronger hand eye coordination, which can assist them in being more successful in the classroom. As they feel more confident in their writing skills they are more likely to want to learn, write and be creative. Socially, students are becoming increasingly independent and wanting less to rely on their family and teachers for guidance, which can create that separation in the classroom from the student needing a lot of assistance to wanting to try it themselves. They also are beginning to have a deeper understanding of relationships with others and peer pressure is becoming a stronger element in their lives, which has a big impact on how they think of school and their learning. As they continue to think abstractly and not base their thinking on what has already happened, they can begin to predict the consequences of an action. This has an impact on how and what we teach in the way that learners are no longer relying on simple facts and what has already happened for their information. They are able to take those facts into consideration and begin to think abstractly and use their imagination to see the bigger picture. ]]> 2018-10-11 12:18:41 UTC https://padlet.com/cfr5/rtyx6f7u56ap/wish/291671466 kal27 https://padlet.com/cfr5/rtyx6f7u56ap/wish/291671863 For second grade, students are just observing what heating and cooling does to a substance. They are trying to figure out if the process of heating/cooling can be reversed. We can differentiate instruction for students who need more support in understanding and remembering content. We can have students do a matching activity that involves them taking a substance and matching it to an outcome after it has been heated or cooled. Students at this grade level are just starting to understand cause and effect and this will help them practice their skills along with learning about states of matter. ]]> 2018-10-11 12:19:28 UTC https://padlet.com/cfr5/rtyx6f7u56ap/wish/291671863 kal27 https://padlet.com/cfr5/rtyx6f7u56ap/wish/291692032 For fifth grade, students are learning about the Law of Conservation of Mass. They are trying to prove that matter cannot be created nor destroyed even after going through physical changes. We can differentiate instruction for students who are more visual and word learners. During the lecture portion of the lesson, students can follow along with the text book. This allows them to hear and see what the teacher is teaching.]]> 2018-10-11 12:59:16 UTC https://padlet.com/cfr5/rtyx6f7u56ap/wish/291692032 ant61 https://padlet.com/cfr5/rtyx6f7u56ap/wish/291692044 Being able to compare and contrast two different grades and development levels can show us as new teachers that everything can be built upon and interconnected. Learners can be taught one thing in one grade and it can be built upon in another grade in the future such as our example for assessing the changes in matter. Teachers can take any prior knowledge students have to be able to build on and grow their knowledge on the matter. Despite development levels seemingly being different and unrelated, they are actually interconnected and built off of each other as we can do for lessons and content. This proves that whatever we teach is revisited in the future and being built upon, so what we do teach needs to be solid in background in order for the student to be able to recall it. Being able to look at different standards and connecting them to a similar activity really builds on the connectedness. ]]> 2018-10-11 12:59:18 UTC https://padlet.com/cfr5/rtyx6f7u56ap/wish/291692044
