If we speak about learning topic Jobs in
foreign languages-the age is 8-13 years old
Activity duration:
20
Overview and objectives:
This knowledge
will help us! I want and can, studying chemistry and natural history, be
a drug maker, a doctor, a nurse, a technologist in a cafe, a
cosmetologist, a hairdresser, a creator of paints for decorating houses.
We form children's elementary ideas about the properties of water: "push"
air to the surface.
We develop scientific thinking: we conduct classes through research;
through mistakes we learn to analyze.
We promote the interaction of independence and activity, motivate
interaction with classmates and adults.
Materials/equipment
needed:
3 copies of the
list of professions
Preparation:
Worksheets, book -
algorithm, water, aquarium, balls, water, magnifying glass.
Tips/comments/recommendations:

Detailed instructions:
We treat you to an
orange, but it must be peeled.
Oh, bad luck, the orange falls into the aquarium. Plunging to the bottom
of the tank, he lies quietly.
Weird! After all, when mom sows oranges, they pop up.
What is the secret?
The secret is in the orange peel. Examining the peel through a
magnifying glass, we noticed air bubbles. It is the air in the peel that
prevents the orange from sinking into the water.
Air is lighter than water, which pushes the air to the surface, so the
peeled orange floats on the surface of the water.
The main thing! So that future chemists, technologists, pharmacologists
understand or guess about the reasons.
If you take a balloon and inflate it, you will get an air bubble.
We are all together trying to sink the ball to the bottom of the
aquarium.
We, like people who lived centuries ago, noticed this property of water
and air - to push air to the surface!

All listed?
Probably not, but we still have time to think.
After the 9th grade, you can enter Olaine College, which trains
technologists for the food industry.
You can enter after the 12th grade at the Riga Technical University,
Medical University. Stradina,
at the Faculty of Chemistry of the University of Latvia.
Or maybe we will also set off in another professional direction!?
Why don't oranges
sink in water?
One of the most
common directions in Latvia is chemical-technological and pharmaceutical.
I would go to
chemists, let them teach me!
Cognitive research
activity begins in early childhood. It is at this age that a child can exclaim:
"Eureka!".
The task is simple.
• We form children's
elementary ideas about the properties of water: "push" the air to the surface.
• We develop
scientific thinking: we draw conclusions through research; through mistakes we
learn to analyze.
• We help to show
independence and activity, motivate to interact with classmates and adults.

Water dissolves,
pushes out, does not connect.
We have yet to
discover! But for now, we will analyze what was discovered before us.
So!
