Introduction: Introduce to the children about the topic of Matter and Energy.
Goals: To make the child understand about Matter, Energy and Quantum world.
Click: We want instant results in everything
About the topic: Our five senses of Sight, Hearing, Smell, Taste and Touch are our gate way to perceiving this world. This world is made up of matter or objects in various forms, shapes, colors and qualities. We see ourselves living in a three dimensional world fundamentally made up of five basic elements – earth, water, fire, air and space. We see all the objects in this world undergoing change with time. They all undergo creation, sustenance and dissolution with the passage of time. Classical physics tells us that matter is governed by the Physics like the three laws of Physics, like the three laws of motion, the law of gravity, the laws of fluid dynamics and so on.
All objects are considered to be made up of molecule, which are made up of atoms, which in are made of three types of particles, protons, neutrons, electrons. Today we are in the age of quantum world. We talk of quantum physics, quantum leaps and quantum thinking. Quantum simply means a jump from one state to another state without going through any of the intermediate states. We want instant results in everything. We want quantum results.
Interpretation:
• What is this world made up of?
• What are the gate ways to this world?
• What are the five basic elements?
• What are the laws of Physics?
• What is called quantum world?
• What is known as Quantum?
Evaluation: Evaluate their knowledge on the topic by asking them multiple questions.
Conclusion: Today no one has the time to go through intermediate states. We want instant results in everything.
Art of the day: Five elements drawing
Materials Needed:
- Paper,
- Sketch or pencil or color pencil
Explanation: Ask children what are the five elements of nature. Encourage the child to express the five elements – Earth, Water, Fire, Air and Space in a pictorial form.
Inference: We see ourselves living in a three dimensional world fundamentally made up of five basic elements – Earth, Water, Fire, Air and Space. Everything undergoes change.
Activity of the day: PASSING THE OBJECT
Explanation: Explain to the children the game. All children must sit in a circular form and one child will be given a parcel, child has to pass the parcel by taking the parcel behind and giving to the other child from the front. The children has to listen to music or clap sound and pass the parcel, whoever having the parcel, when the music stops will be out of the game.
Variation: The variation of this game is there may be two or three parcels that can be passed in the similar way.
Inference: This activity involves lots of co-ordination and alertness.
