ExploreDescribes initial
investigation
Lab activities
Examples: ubiquity experiment, olfaction experiment, tablecloth pull experiment
ExplainUnderstanding what
has happened in the Explore stage
Hardest Stage/ Very Important
Example: Explanation of experimental results
Diving board
Extend/ ElaborateTaking the knowledge
learned and relating it elsewhere
Similar instances, different circumstances
Example: Factors affecting bacterial survival vs. factors affecting human survival
EvaluateAssessment of
Understanding
Example: Test students knowledge in some form, to determine if they grasped the concept.
How it’s done can make a world of difference
Group Activity
Assuming 8th graders have just completed a lesson on the periodic table, create an introductory lesson of a unit on atoms using the 5E’s
Focus on introducing basic atomic components: proton, neutron, electron.
Activity
Lesson Example INTRODUCE BACTERIA DAY: ENGAGE: -Ask students what they remember
from the lesson about the growth conditions of Bacteria. (clicker activity or short matching exercise)
EXPLORE: (Talk about the
importance of sterility) -Provide the students with sterile
swabs and allow them to investigate their environment. (the greenway, areas around the school, themselves)
-Have students document where swabbed
-Materials needed: Sterile swabs, agar plates, petri dishes, incubator, and hydrogen peroxide.
EXPLAIN: -Explain to the students how
scientists determine what they find. -Explain growth media and fit the
needs of the type of organism they want to grow.
-Explain the importance of sterility. Have the students explain ways that scientist can prevent contamination.
EXTEND: -Before growth media, what did
scientist do to grow bacteria? EVALUATE: Test students on the importance of
sterility and the practices that they can do to prevent contamination.

Proper Planning Prevents Poor Performance
Start Slowly
