Teaching and Learning Activities

Lesson Plan for Low Achievers

How to Measure and Compare Volume of Liquid

Activity 1 : Using non-standard units

Learning Outcomes:

By the end of the lesson, pupils will be able to measure and compare volume of liquids by using non-standard units correctly.

Prior Knowledge:

Pupils had learnt how to compare objects: more or less, many or a few, high or low during their previous lesson while learning A Whole Numbers.

Teaching Aids:

5 various small containers of different sizes
A small water cup.

Vocabulary;
more, less, empty, half full, full,

Procedures:

1. Divide the class into groups of four and have them work in their cooperative group learning.

2. Appoint one student to be the recorder in each group to record their findings.

3. Give each group 5 set of containers of different sizes, a pail of water and a small water cup as the measurement tool.

4. Each group will record the number of cups needed to fill the water in every containers which provided to them.

* Also teach the pupils estimation such as half full, full and empty

Conclusion;

For this activities pupils will bear in mind that the volume of liquid will be determined based on the containers used. The bigger the containers the more quantities of water is needed to fill in.

How to Measure and Compare Volume of Liquid By Using Standard Units

Lesson Plan For High Achievers

Activity 2 : Using standard units

Learning Outcomes:

By the end of the lesson, pupils will be able to measure volume of liquids by using standard units correctly.

Prior Knowledge:

Pupils had learnt that the content of water will be determined based on their containers. The bigger containers show more volume of liquid while the smaller containers give us less volume of liquid.

Teaching Aids:
Different sizes of containers ( with units on it ), a pail of water,

Vocabulary :

more, less, empty, half full, full,

Procedures :

1. Divide the pupils into group of four to do work in their cooperative learning.

2. Appoint one student to be the recorder in the group

3. Give each group 4 containers of different sizes, a pail of water and two measuring cylinders. ( One for milliliter and another one for liter)

4. Each group will fill every container with water.

5. They will measure the volume of liquid in each container by pouring the water from the containers into the measuring cylinders.

6. A group member record the results in the form given

Introduce the pupils that 1 liter = 1000 milliliter

1 liter x 1000 milliliter = 1000 milliliter

Conclusion:

For this activities pupils know that volume of liquid can be measured by using metric units such milliliters and liter. They able to understand the relationship between both measuring tools.

Hai.....viewers.....this blog is specially created to fulfil my HBMT2103 subject's coursework requirement. So please don't hesitate to leave your comments. Your comments are most welcome.

First of all I would like to thank everyone who help me to succeed in this assignment. The first person who I would like to thank is my lecture Pn Sharida Bt Hashim who helped me a lot throughout this task. She guided me without getting angry.

Maturity the thing that I gained throughout this experiment. I had some problems with time management before doing this assignment. My involvement in this educated me in time management. I learned to manage my time by doing some useful activities during my free time. Other than that i also learned about creating blog. Which is something important in this era. In order to finish my assignments, I learned that co-operation from family members is very important. “Without your involvement you can’t succeed and with your involvement you can’t fail”, this is what i learned.

Regarding the title of my assignment, I learned a lot about creating blog. At the beginning I taught that creating a blog is a simple and easy, but this seems to be wrong. I learned a lot of methods and precautions which should be alert in preparing a blog.

I realize that teaching and learning mathematics isn’t a simple job. A lot of practice and exercises needed for someone to do well in mathematics. Measuring Volume quiet tafe to teach specially to younger kids. If, we as teacher can master in this, then subtraction won’t be a big issue for our future generations . They can even say that subtraction isn’t a big deal. This is what I learned throughout this assignment.

I am not an expert in this subject,but I know that a little bit more practice will ensure high marks for me in this subject. Old people use to say “practice makes perfect”.

Thank, you.

ASSIGNMENT QUESTION

Misconception on capacity may arise among the students while teaching Volume of liquid especially when comparing capacity of two containers that can hold more. Students often make the comparison on height rather than its capacity. Find ONE (1) video in the internet that show how volume of liquid are measured. Create TWO (2) teaching aids that can be applied to Year Two students to help them understand better. Based on your teaching aids, you are required to create TWO (2) teaching activities; each for high achiever and low achiever students. Finally, you are required to develop your own blog and post the video, teaching aid and teaching activities in your blog. You are free to choose any platform that are available in the internet. For reference you may browse at www.blogger.com on developing your blog. You are only required to submit link to your blog.
