This HOW THINGS MOVE UNIT BUNDLE includes 10 PowerPoint lessons and a corresponding student Science Journal. You will have everything you need to teach the ACARA Version 8 Movement Unit for the Foundation Stage Physical Sciences Curriculum. 

The highly engaging lessons and the age appropriate journal activities are carefully aligned to the ACARA Version 8—Foundation Stage. All the content descriptors from the Foundation Physical Sciences strand are covered.

I am currently working on the Version 9 Science units, so I’ve decided to heavily reduce all my Version 8 Science resources. Grab yourself a bargain and check them all out here: ACARA Version 8 Science Resources ON SALE

 Each page in the student journal corresponds with each of the 10 PowerPoint lessons. The specific ACARA content descriptors addressed in each activity are listed at the bottom of each journal page.

Students will be able to use the journal to record and represent their knowledge and understandings and it could also be used as evidence of learning and to inform assessment grades.

 The professional PowerPoint lessons include quality real life photos and interactive aspects perfect for large screen display and interactive panels.  There are animated pictures, links to video clips, interactive slides , experiments and movement music throughout the presentations.

 Keep your students highly engaged as they learn all about HOW THINGS MOVE

Student Science Journal

• 10 pages of scientific worksheets and activities

• printable front cover

I usually compile the pages of the journal into a booklet for the children.

You might like to just select and print individual pages as follow-up or extension lesson activities to accompany the PowerPoint lessons.

 Sometimes I enlarge a journal page to A3. After we watch the related PowerPoint lesson, we complete the poster size journal activity together as a whole class. Of course the whole journal could be printed at A3 size and used as a whole class learning journal.
