We are busily learning about magnets with our NTA project
called magnets and motors. We have done
3 experiments so far. The last experiment , students worked in pairs to come up
with their own experiment to show the strength of a magnet (Was 2 magnets together
double as strong/Did the strength the magnets increase proportionately to how
many magnets were put together?)
Each pair videotaped and documented on paper their findings.
At the end, students peer assessed their videos to make sure
all the content of their experiment, documentation, discussion and results were
included. I was able to view their videos together with each pair and further
the discussion if need be. I’m in the
process of making my own assessment.
In school, students started reading pages 6-13 in a book
called Magnets and Motors. The class
assignment was to read each short article. Make a vocabulary list in English
and summarize what they have read. Most
students were busy and got something done. They were working on this for
approximately 4 lessons (while I met with a small group). Some students today
wanted to take it home to continue because it should be done by Tuesday. If
they are not done, please make sure that they have their notebook and reading book
anyway on Tuesday. Then they can
take it home again Tuesday afternoon. The notebook and topic is a very big part of their physics grade.
