Exploring Machines
This week, Grade 1s looked into the topic machines. Together they tried to unpack what machines are and what machines are not. They worked in groups to give examples of machines as well as example sof not machines.
Then they were further invited to spark tehir curiosity by doing a gallery walk and writing their names on the paper to indicate whether they agree or disagree that the given examples are machines.
The week concluded with a simple research of the basic simple machines: pulley, lever, inclined plane, screw, wheel and axle and wedge.
Next week, we will expand our exploration by looking at how the simple machines work and how they make work easier to do.
