UNIT: ECOSYSTEMS
COURSE/LEVEL: 5º PRIMARY EDUCATION
SUBJECT: NATURAL SCIENCE
- INTRODUCTION:
This is the first one I have done using AICLE methodology.
I have choosen this topic because I have worked it during this course although in Spanish.
I have to say that I am not teaching in a Bilingual School or in a school with Bilingual Section, so this unit is just theorical, I can not bring practical experience.
The main purpose of this unit is to become aware of the relationship between all the beings of an ecosystem, and how the human being can influence these ecosystems, both negatively and positively.
To this end, I pose the following objectives:
- Understand that all living beings are necessary to maintain the food chain.
- Understand that the weather and the amount of water will lead to different ecosystems.
- Be aware of the damage that human beings cause in the environment.
- Commit to do our part to try to reduce this damage.
In this way, work will be promoted with different groupings and using new technologies. Especially in the tasks:
- Prepare a presentation in which they analize all the elements of a nearby ecosystem.
- Carry out a work using images in which the negative effects of some activities of the human being are explained, and provide possible solutions for each of those problems.
SESSION 1: we will dedicate this session to make clear the difference between living and non-living things. For this, we carry out the following activities:
- Brainstorming: What characteristics does a living being have?, What functions do living beings do?, How can we distinguish living beings from non-living?
- Alphabet soup:
- Classify words:
