Liquid Volume Measurement (Activity No.2)

ACTIVITY 2 ( Higher and Lower Achiever Group )

Topic                                      :           Volume of Liquid

Learning Area                     :           6.2 : Measuring and comparing
                                                             volumes liquid.

Learning Objective           :           6.2.1 : Measuring and comparing
                                                            volumes of liquid using non-standard
                                                            units.

Learning Outcomes          :           By the end of the learning activity,
                                                            pupils should be able to :-

1.      Measure volume of liquid using standard units.

2.      Compare volume of liquid correctly.

Materials                              :           Water, 5 different sizes and shapes of
                                                            containers.

Procedures :

1.      Refresh the pupils mind with previous lesson by calling them one at a time to read the volume of water in the beakers in front of the class.

Examples :-

2.      Remind the pupils the correct way to read the volume of liquid in a cylinder.

3.      Next, teacher shows 5 different sizes and shapes of containers.

4.      Then call the pupils one at a time to label the containers from A to E.

5.      Next, let the pupil predict which container has the most volume of water and arrange the container in ascending order.

6.      After that, divide the pupils into 5 groups. Each group will consist of high achievers and lower achiever pupils, so that they can help each others.

7.      Each members of the group will work together to fill the container given with water.

8.      Then, each group will write down the result on the chart prepared on the board.

9.      At the end, analyse the chart on the board with the pupils.

 Explains to the pupils the each of the container has different shapes and sizes, and they have different volume of water. Some time we could not assume bigger container will have more water compare to a tall container.
