A Peek At Beaks- Little Fingers Create Magic Moments
Everybody likes a good comeback story and this time we are back with a bang!
As truly said by Barack Obama, “ We remember, we rebuild and we come back stronger"
‘A Peek At Beaks’ - Fun With Popsicle Flashlights - Grade 3
Paper circuits is an activity with simple, easily sourceable materials that engages learners with basic circuitry.The main idea behind the ‘Paper Circuits’ activity was to instill innovation and creativity among the students.
With an integrated approach in mind and a clear objective to execute a cross curricular activity, first, the students of grade three were encouraged to conduct research about different types of birds, their eating habits, habitat, their lifespan and then they were encouraged to discover and jot the names of different birds in Arabic and Hindi. Math was used to calculate and compare the lifespan in different birds.
Later to take a step ahead into the world of innovation students were challenged to construct and design a circuit using LED, copper tapes and coin cell batteries.With "paper circuits," students learnt about circuits, design and built basic circuits on a piece of paper. Students assembled a circuit, learnt about open and closed circuits, and made an LED light up. This technique was finally used to light up the beaks of different birds and create fun while learning.
Let’s take a closer look at the following videos to get a better idea about the activity.
