Blog Post Week 4

  1. This week in lab we learned about the 5E model of instruction in a science classroom. The 5E model of instruction allows students to engage, explore, explain, extend, and evaluate. The teacher engages the students by bridging old and new knowledge. The students explore by asking questions, finding patterns, making hypotheses, and testing new ideas. The teacher explains by testing theories, defining vocabulary, explaining concepts, and methods to solve ideas. The teacher extends their students' knowledge by getting them to apply their knowledge to other domains. The teacher evaluates their students' learning by using traditional assessment methods such as self-assessments, worksheets, quizzes, projects, and more.
  2. I can apply the 5E model of instruction in my teaching career by making an organized lesson plan that addresses all categories of the model. I feel that it makes teaching the NGSS standards easier because extending students' knowledge lets the teacher teach cross cutting concepts in science.
  3. I have one question regarding the 5E model of instruction. Is it appropriate to use 5E in my lesson plan in other domains that are not science?

    Hey Sid! I completely agree with your question about being able to apply the 5E modeling to other subjects. That was something I was also wondering and wanting to know what that would look like.

    Hi Sid!
    You question about applying 5E to other subjects is great! I really like that question and I have the same question, I wonder what it would look like and if it would be executed any differently!

 1. What did I learn this week? Today in lab, we learned about and developed a particle model of the plunger. When the plunger is pushed down on a smooth surface, it sticks. When the plunger gets pushed down, the air is forced out and cannot come back in because a vacuum is created inside. There is no space for the air to go inside, making it stick to the surface. We also learned about why ice melts faster on metal than on wood. We concluded that metal has less gaps/holes in their particle makeup. When the ice hits the ice, there are more collisions happening which heats up the ice and causes it to melt. The wood's particle makeup has more air pockets causing less collisions. 2. Which parts did I find confusing? The most confusing part of the lab was explaining why ice melts faster on metal. This process took forever for me to figure out. Once we understood the particle makeup of the materials, it helped me to understand particle collision better. 3. How can I apply this to teachin...
