ACTIVITIES

Lesson 1:

Step 1 – To tune pupils into English


- Teacher /pupils greet each other in English.
- Pupils open the lesson /write the date on their Science notebooks in English.
- Pupils are set into groups of cooperative work in English and each student has a different role and
responsibility in their table groups.
Step 2- To read the theory of the excretory system: organs and functions.
- Teacher gives the students the photocopies of the theory and they read it together. Also they try to
connect the digestive system and the excretory system. The teacher explains the students all the
vocabulary they don’t understand.
Step 3 – Activity 1 : To match each organ with their functions in small groups (cooperative teams)
The students working in cooperative teams have to match each organ with their function. ( Without
looking into the notebooks information about the excretory system information read it before). During
this activity the teacher tries to help the groups. They really enjoy this kind of activities.
Step 4 : To check all the correct answers together.( Activity 1)
- They correct all together the answers.
Step 5 – Individual Activity 2 : the students alone have to match now each organ with their function.
The students have to do the same activity alone in their notebooks. Then their check this activity
again.
Step 6 – Students have to use their creativity and do their own excretory system using different
materials: spaghettis, beans, dough...
Each student has to do their own excretory system. The teachers give them: beans (represents the
Kidneys) , spaghetti pieces ( represents the Ureters) , dough (represents the Bladder), straw pieces (
represents the Urethra), Pieces of red yarn ( represents the Arteries) and pieces of blue yarn (
represents the Veins). They have 3 main goals in this activity :
1. To create they own excretory system.
2. To lable the excretory system organs.
3. To writte the function of each organ.
With this they will have to do an oral presentation in pairs....
Step 7: To finish the lesson:
Pupils tidy up and say the farewells in English

EVALUATION

- Immediate feedback after oral classroom report.


- Checking activities in class.
