ORDER

CONTENT vs LANGUAGECONTENT vs LANGUAGE

• If language is very demanding, Sts do not have the opportunity

to learn

to show what they know

• Activities should be planned carefully

Sts meet the content

Sts produce language

Sts meet the content...Sts meet the content...

With power point presentations:

Example:

Content: Magnitudes.

Magnitudes

Images help

Defining concepts

MAGNITUDES OR UNITS?

EXAMPLE:volume mass kilogram

_Kilogram _is the odd one because the other two are magnitudes /units

volume oC time___________ is the odd one because the other two are magnitudes/units

kilogram litre temperature___________ is the odd one because the other two are magnitudes/units

� The odd one out: sts will read more carefully

A magnitude is all we can measure.But, which are the Units for these magnitudes?Units of time are seconds (s) or hours (h). In pairs, find the units of the other magnitudes:

Safety rules in a lab

YOU SHOULD… www.carreteros.org YOU CAN NOT… www.posicionatuweb.com.ar/

- behave well- think carefully - take care of hot surfaces- wear a pony tail- wear goggles

- play- rush- touch hot surfaces!- eat or drink- smell substances- smoke

Sts do some research

• Chemicals at home

• Hazard symbols

PRODUCT 1 PRODUCT 2

Write the name of the product

.

Translate it into English

Do the labels on the containers give safety information?

Write the contents listed on the label

Do the labels include standard hazard signs? Which ones? Draw them

PRODUCT 1 PRODUCT 2

Do the labels on the containers give safety information?

yes no

Write the contents listed on the label

Material needed

We want to find out which are the boiling points of water and ethanol

We want to find out …

-The conclusion is that the b.p. of ethanol is lower than de b.p. of water.

-So, the boiling temperature of water is higher

than the boiling temperature of alcohol.

Conclusions

b.p. water: 100 C

b.p. ethanol: 78 C

Results

It is necessary to wait…Observations

Producing sentences from models

� Sts follow the model given

Activity In pairs, write 4 sentences using the information from the chart above

Example: - We have two eyes. We can see with our eyes.

-We have ___ ________. We can _________ with our _________.

-_____________________________________________________.

SENSE ORGAN WHAT DOES THIS ORGAN DO?

Draw the organ

sight eye to see

Producing sentences without models

Activity. Try to find the 4 steps of the scientific method in the text, the questions will help you.

STEP 1: OBSERVATION. What happened to the leg?_________________________________________

STEP 2: HYPOTHESIS. Why did it happen?___

� Sts should answer questions about a text

Making the students choose, not to produce

Activity: We want to make a fair test, choose the best option:

When we measure the time that takes each liquid to boil

a. We can put different amount of liquids

b. In order to compare the results we have to put the same amount of liquids

Think about WHAT WE PLAN TO FIND OUT which question is the best?

a. "Which substance boils first: water or alcohol?"

b. "Which are the boiling points of water and alcohol?"

� Multiple choice activity

Complete the sentences with the words from de box but:

There are more words than needed You can use a word more than once!

LIQUIDS TIME GASES BURNER MEASURING HEARING BUNSEN RULER SEEING T EMPERATURES MASS DROPPER FOR VOLUME A pipette is used for measuring____________. A graduated cylinder is used for measuring __________ A balance is used for measuring _____________ A ____________ is used for measuring length. A clock is used for_________ _____________ A thermometer is used _____ ________ __________ A ________ _________ is used for heating. An Erlenmeyer flask is used to hold ___________. A ____________ is used for counting drops. Eyes are used for _______. Watch out!

� This activity helps to review vocabulary

Fill in the gaps

Eventually they can use L1

Because language shouldn´t be an obstacle

Eventually scaffolding can be done “in situ”

i.e. writing starters, vocabulary or models on the board
