lesson There is a mother and a baby under the sun.

Why is the baby exposed to sunshine early in the morning?

Baby sun protection therefore means getting just enough sunlight to maintain healthy
levels of vitamin D without letting the skin tan or burn.

Very Good! Doctors advice mothers to take their babies under early morning sun. The
sun helps in producing vitamin D. If exposed to sunlight to the right amount of
sunlight in the morning, there is a substance under the skin that Identify the

do you think is our topic for today?” That’s right! So our lesson for today is all about
 what causes day and night. Kindly read altogether our objective for today. Unlocking
of Difficulties.

We do:
The teacher together with the pupils will describe the effect of the sun based on the
situation given.

1. Ana exposed too much heat the sun. She did not apply any sunblock to protect
her skin. What will happen to her?

days. What happen to the plant?

4. My father is a farmer, Everyday he goes to our farm to take care of the plants.

 The following are the words you will encounter in this topic.” The teacher let the
learners read the words and their meanings.

Evaporate - turn from liquid into vapor. Protection - the action of protecting, or
the state of being protected Photosynthesis - process by which plants make
their own food Sun energy - radiant light and heat from the Sun

The different activities are done under the sun’s heat and light

E. Discussing :
new concepts
and practicing Begin by asking the students what they know about the sun. What does it look like?
new skills How far away is it?
#2
Divide the students into small groups and assign each group a different effect of the
sun to explore. For example, one group could investigate how the sun affects plant
growth, while another could study how the sun affects the temperature of different
materials.
Assessment:

Finally, bring the class together for a discussion about the different effects of the sun.
Ask the students to reflect on what they learned and how it relates to their own lives.
For example, they might think about how they can protect themselves from the sun's
harmful effects by wearing sunscreen or staying in the shade.

Observe the students during the investigation and discussion to see how well they
work in groups and communicate their ideas.
 Evaluate the posters or charts that the groups create to see how well they understand
their assigned topic and how effectively they present their findings.
Have the students complete a short written reflection on what they learned about the
effects of the sun and how it relates to their own lives.
