How certain foods can change.

We were working with finding out about how certain foods can change.

We talked  to the children first and find out how much they know.

We asked them how to make an ice cube, what happens

when you boil pasta or an egg, what happens when you leave ice-cream

out in the sun, etc.

Then we gave them the opportunity to experience of some of these changes.

                                   Sink and float   

During the Week, we introduced the concept of floating and sinking. For this activity, we asked the kids to play with water and some fruits and vegetables as well as other objects. It was good experience of introducing the concept of floating and sinking. While playing, we talked to the kids about things float and others sink. They experienced the knowledge through practice and actual involvement. We extended the learning throughout worksheet activity.  Each child was trying to put different food and objects in water, then they pasted pics of the same objects on paper with pictures of two containers of water. Many kids were able to reflect their understanding of the concept on the paper, while few kids needed some help.

Purpose:

• To achieve the goal of Grid 10 and introduce the concept of floating and sinking.
• To know, experience and practice about sinking and floating.
