Location and Perspective Lesson Plan

Icon for Phys Sci-Force Motion-Loc Perspective-Engage game

Engage

The Engage session activates students’ prior knowledge of spatial relationships. In this session, students use their digital Notebooks to record what they know and then watch an animated video that gets them thinking about the topic. Students also participate in a teacher-led discussion regarding the importance of clear communication. To complete the session, students collaborate with peers offline and continue to unpack their prior knowledge.


Icon for Phys Sci-Force Motion-Loc Perspective-Explore game

Explore

The Explore session promotes interest in and curiosity about spatial relationships. In this session, students follow precise directions to locate the correct object. Students also participate in a teacher-led discussion that encourages them to wonder about the importance of accurately communicating information to others. To complete the session, students work collaboratively offline and further explore specific location terms.


Icon for Phys Sci-Force Motion-Loc Perspective-Explain game

Explain

The Explain session mixes animation with real-life video clips to provide a clear and concise description of how to describe the location of an object from any perspective. Students are also encouraged to express their understanding, in their own words, as they participate in teacher-led discussions. To complete the session, students participate in an offline activity that allows them to demonstrate mastery of the content.


Icon for Phys Sci-Force Motion-Loc Perspective-Location Poem game

Location Poem

This Elaborate session promotes the use of formal definitions and explanations in a format not traditionally used in science instruction. In this session, students view an animated literature piece and use their digital Notebook to record their ideas. Students also participate in a teacher-led discussion that emphasizes the science content. To complete the session, students participate in offline activities that reinforce the connection between science, literature, and the arts.


Icon for Phys Sci-Force Motion-Loc Perspective-Which? game

Which?

This Elaborate session allows students to practice and apply new terminology related to the module content. In this session, students participate in a selection of activities that focus on vocabulary and content understanding. To complete the session, students work independently, or with peers, to complete an offline activity.
