Description

A lesson-level instructional pattern in which an animated film is first viewed, then reviewed and discussed with the teacher, and finally consolidated with complementary materials. The article describes using a geographical globe and 3D model to explain Earth's rotation, schematic drawings of the planets, colouring tokens for each planet, and a mnemonic phrase. The authors state the second activity used "the animation film, 2D and 3D representati on of the Solar System" addressed to several analysers (auditory, visual, tactile, kinaesthetic), which helped capture and maintain attention.

Design Implications

Context

Requirements

  • A teacher mediates the discussion and explanations after viewing
  • Complementary visual and tactile materials (globe, 3D model, drawings, tokens) are available

Constraints

  • Stated for Science learning in primary education with the Solar System topic in the Romanian Mathematics and Environmental Exploration subject

Target Learners

  • first-grade primary students

Learning Goals

  • forming representations of the Solar System's structure and functioning
  • knowing planet names, order, and characteristics
  • understanding how days and nights form
