The CHRONOLOGICAL of the SMARTboard making….

What I’ve done…

29th August 2007
Divide tasks between group members. I was appointed to do the activity for science
subjects. Brainstorming what is suitable topic for the science activity. I had selected SOLAR ECLIPSE as my topic. Besides, I understand the topic very well so that it’s not a big deal for me to construct science activity based on that particular topic.

I have selected the material for SMART board activity. I had retrieved several information of solar eclipse from internet.The websites are very useful for my Smart board making. According to Ms Chin the facilitator, for the one who do the science activities, he/she should incorporate with some notes of the topic that had been chose. Due to that. I had make 3 slides of the notes (which is info of the phenomenon of the Solar Eclipse). To add, I combined my pastimes group science project with this SMARTboard slides in order to make it useful and meaningful.

Furthermore, I have found some animated pictures and photo which is all about Solar
Eclipse. There were numerous animated and colorful pictures to grab from the net. I believed that young kids learn better by the assistant of pictures or diagrams. Since I teach them the science concept, I have to put more diagrams to show the clearly the concept of the formation of the solar eclipse. Based on Piaget, children learn fast and get clearer view by looking at concrete material rather than abstract material.

I managed to complete my work successfully. However, I have to check my work for many times and I realized that I should ‘touch-up’ few of my slides in order to make it captivating instead of an eyesore.
