Objective of the Learning Engagement:
To foster inquiry-based learning with fun and engagement, to encourage curiosity
Beginning the new class with magical experiments that pique curiosity, students are likely to be motivated from the outset. This initial excitement can set a positive tone for the entire science course, encouraging active participation and a thirst for knowledge.
Encouraging students to observe, question, and record their observations fosters inquiry-based learning. They are prompted to think critically about the scientific principles behind the seemingly magical experiments, thereby developing their analytical and problem-solving skills. Fun and enjoyable experiences create a positive learning environment where students feel comfortable exploring and experimenting. Integrating fun and engaging activities like magical experiments at the beginning of the session can have a profound impact on MYP 2 students by fostering curiosity, inquiry skills, and a deeper appreciation for scientific concepts.
Details of the Learning Engagement:
The introductory class of MYP 2 Science began with observation of a few magical experiments like:
- THE BENDING OF WATER
- LIGHTING OF LED BULB WITH SALT WATER
- SEEING THE COLOURS OF RAINBOW
- FIXING OF POLYSTYRENE CUP ON THE WALL.
