Why might these concepts be hard to understand?
• You are not interested in the topic.
• You don’t understand part of it, it will get harder afterwards when you have to learn other terms.
• You are forgetful and haven’t found a way of remembering.
How do these ideas fit under the heading of matter?
- All of them are or have to do with matter.
How does one make this engaging?
- Use of colour.
- Creating games that explain the concepts clearly.
- Connections to real life scenarios.
- Labs
- Movies/Videos/Plays.
DREAM
What are some possibilities of teaching/sharing this information in an engaging way?
• Producing a play.
• Using different colours, examples and pictures to define each.
• Creating games that teach the concepts in a fun way.
• Watching a movie or documentary on the topic.
DELIVER
We chose to make a PowerPoint that includes colour, pictures and videos that will help understand the concepts in an easier way.
DEBRIEF
We think it is a very good PowerPoint that explains the concepts clearly. Something we could have improved would be we could have used more examples and be more specific.
