Online Resources & Tools
This module has been very beneficial and insightful and I’m excited to incorporate some of the resources it introduced into my teaching.
Marvin & Milo: I believe they will be captivated by these visual aids when conducting science experiments, as they are presented in a very child-friendly manner. Additionally, the students could create their own comics to illustrate the steps of their experiments, reinforcing their understanding and creativity.
Stellarium: I thought this was excellent! It would serve as a fantastic introduction to a lesson about space, instantly capturing the students’ interest. This resource could spark engaging discussions and enhance oral language skills, particularly when exploring the differences between night and day. Furthermore, it presents excellent opportunities for cross-curricular activities, such as art projects where students create space-themed pictures using chalk or paint.
