Questions for whole group discussion:
Tell me the difference between living and nonliving things?

Teacher (What will the teacher do/say etcetera)
The teacher and students will

conduct an experiment with a rock
and fish to determine which is
living. First the teacher will have
the students predict what will
happen when both the rock and fish
are fed. The teacher will write
responses on the piece of chart
paper. Next, the teacher will feed
both the fish and rock food. Then,
the teacher will ask the students
questions about rock and fish. For
example,
Does it eat?
Does it grow?
Does it move?
Does it reproduce?
Student (What will the student

do/say etcetera)
The students will

observe and compare
the differences between
the fish and rock.
Students will answer
teacher questions by
thinking and observing
what happened.

magic wand. Then, have
each child take turns to
touch things that are
living and non-living and
try to change them into
the opposite. It is
impossible to do. This will
help in showing the
difference when they use
their imagination and
then understand reality.

For high ability students, I will give them a worksheet and they
should write the characteristics and example for living and
nonliving things.
