We are all different Myself ~ Activity 2 Objective • recognises and/or measures physical similarities and differences between individuals Working scientifically • Questioning • Observing • Estimating and measuring • Analysing (sorting, classifying and interpreting) • Recording and communicating Designing and making • Exploring • Planning • Making Background information We are all unique. We may seem alike in that we have eyes, ears, and can walk or run, laugh or cry. However, even with these common traits we can still be different (e.g. tall/short, dark/fair, curly/straight hair). Before the lesson Materials needed • Metre rulers or measuring tapes, coloured pencils. Preparation • If possible, organise to have adult helpers available to work with groups during the measuring. The lesson Stimulus • Sit the pupils in a circle. Make statements such as ‘I have curly hair’, ‘I have a younger sister’ or ‘I have a missing tooth’. If this statement is true for a pupil, he/she must stand up, walk to the centre of the circle and look for another place to sit. Children enjoy this game as it is similar to the party game ‘Musical chairs’. What to do • Explain to the pupils that although we have many similarities, we are all different in physical appearance. Draw the table on the board. Explain to the class how to do a ‘tally’ when counting. Ask the pupils what colour hair they have. Some pupils may be confused as their hair is a mix of colours. Help them to make a decision. • Ask pupils to raise their hand after you name the hair colour. Create the tally on the board. Pupils can complete their own table on the worksheet as you do. • Pupils calculate the total. They use the information to create their graph. Ask the pupils to use a different-coloured pencil for each hair colour. • Pupils work in pairs to complete Question 3. After the lesson Answers • Teacher check Additional activities • Ask the class who has the same colour hair as their parents. Who doesn’t? Do they have the same hair colour as their grandparents? Briefly introduce the concept of inherited characteristics. • Plan, design and make a chart to measure heights, including a ‘pointer’ to show and record heights. Viewing Sample Display ideas • Collate the information about the pupils’ heights. Make a large graph to display on the door. Pupils can help by gluing materials or squares of coloured paper on each of the bars. 6 <strong>PR</strong>IMARY SCIENCE ~ Prim-Ed Publishing ~ www.prim-ed.com
