Get your Bibles out and look up Matthew 1:5-6 to find out the names of Boaz's mother and father.
In a group of 2 or 3 brainstorm a list of similarities between Ruth and Rahab.
Write the similarities near the pictures.
How can we use these boxed words to help us understand the importance of Ruth and Rahab in the Israelite lineage?:
Teaching Point:
Neither Rahab nor Ruth were Israelites. However, they both believed in God, and He blessed them abundantly by saving them and bringing them into God's family.
Estimating and Measuring with Millilitres and Litres.
Teacher will need a bucket and a 1 Litre bottle for this introduction.
As a class discuss the difference between volume and capacity - press the left arrows to scroll through this slide share.
-Let students know that over the next two lessons we are going to be breaking into groups where we will be learning to measure a range of different capacities. Students rotate through 5 groups for the next two lessons, however, first there are a few skills that we need to learn.
What we can measure.
The teacher will now show you what type of measuring cups that we will be using over the next few lessons. The teacher will demonstrate how we can use these measuring cups to measure both cups and millilitres.
Show a container. I have a container and I want to find out its capacity. What does capacity mean? Capacity means how much it will hold. What is capacity measured in? L-litres and ml-millilitres.
Fun Facts:
Shower- 8 litres a minute. 10 minute shower uses 80litres of water.
Flush toilet uses 12 litres of water.
Bath uses 140 litres of water.
Swimming pool has 40000 litres.
Olympic swimming pool 2.5 million litres.
Extension: students research other water/litre facts.
Bring in item: coke can, milk jug, juice box etc…
Have students identify the capacity of each. Where can we find the capacity on the containers?
Order from smallest to largest.
Display measuring container on the board. Draw a range of gradients on the jug. How do we read the lines on the container?
Practice reading and changing the gradients.
Draw liquid in the containers and students will find out the capacity.
Provide students with several blank templates of measuring jugs.
Write capacities on the board and students will illustrate the correct capacity on their worksheets
Small group research to complete PBL brief as outlined in Week 4, using your PBL workbooks. Your teachers will be monitoring and answering questions.
Have a look at Worldbook, Britannica Online, the websites from Week Three, those below, and others that you find through Kid Rex to help gather information for your research. The videos and websites below are just a few to get you started.
Ball drills such as kicking to each other and hand passes will be conducted prior to playing a game.
The teacher will sit down with their group and go through the rules of the game and how to play. Once all students are clear on how to play/the expectations you will have a game with the teacher refereeing.
