Based on the teaching aids, I had created two teaching activities; each for high achiever and low achiever students.
1.2.2 : Activity 2
Activity 2（for high achiever students ）
Learning outcomes:
To compare and measure volumes of liquid using non-standard units.
Materials:
water, cups, glasses, bowls, buckets, student worksheets.
Procedures:
1. Tell the students how to measure volumes of liquid and compare the capacity of the containers.
2. Hold up a paper cup and a glass.
3. Ask the students to estimate which containers can holds more water and which one can hold less water.
4. Appoint a student in the class to refill the glass with water and pour the water from the glass into the paper cup to check their estimate.
5. Have the students write their finding in the statement below, in their worksheet.
a. The paper cup can hold________ liquid than the glass.
b. The glass can hold _________liquid than the paper cup.
6. Divide the class into group of 6 students and have them work in their cooperative groups.
7. Give each group of students a bucket and three containers of different sizes: paper cup, glass and bowl.
8. Ask the students to measure the volume of water the bucket can hold.
9. Have the students to pour water into the bucket with paper cup until it is filled to the top. Count how many cupfuls of water are used.
10. Repeat step 8 and 9 using the glass and bowl cup.
11. Ask the student to record their result in the following table and statement, in their worksheet.
containers | Paper cup | glass | bowl |
Volume of water in the pail | _______cups | _______glasses | ________bowls |
12. Have the students discuss on the paper cup, glass and bowl, which have the largest and smallest capacity.
13. Instruct the student to write their conclusions, as below, in their worksheet.
Conclusion: The ______ has the smallest volume of liquid and the ________ has the largest volume of liquid.
14. Ask the students to discuss and answer the 3 questions in the worksheet
as their enrichment activity.
