Testing Materials Lesson Plan: General Learning Outcomes
Testing Materials Lesson Plan: General Learning Outcomes
VERSION A
KR 2011
Grade/Subject: Grade Three, Science Unit: Testing Materials Lesson Duration: 1 Hour
OUTCOMES FROM ALBERTA PROGRAM OF STUDIES
General Learning Outcomes:
3-1: Investigate the nature of things, demonstrating purposeful action that leads to observations and
inferences.
3-2: Identify patterns and order in objects and events studied; and, with guidance, record observations,
using pictures, words and charts; and make predictions and generalizations, based on observations.
Specific Learning Outcomes:
4- Apply procedures to test the strength of construction materials, in particular, different stocks of papers, plastic or
wood
5-Apply procedures to test different designs
6-Describe the properties of some common solids such as wood, paper, and plastic that make them suitable for use as
building materials
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
1. Students will identify properties of different materials (paper vs. wood)
2. Students will apply procedures to test different designs
3. Students will describe the different properties of various materials (paper vs. wood)
