For the Teacher

Overview of Grade 1 Earth/Space Science, Engagement 1

A series of interactive screens provides students with opportunities to explore movement of objects in the sky. One at a time, students volunteer to guide the teacher
by stating the answer to the question on the screen.

What You Need

The means to project this interactive for whole-class viewing.

Advance Preparation

Plan a way to keep track of which students have already answered and which students are still eligible for a turn. Collectively, the screens include thirty-one dots with questions or activities, so each student should get at least one turn.

How to Facilitate

• Beginning with the screen following this one, project the engagement in the largest format possible for whole-class viewing.
• Go over expectations with students before beginning.
• Clicking on most text on the screen activates voice audio of the text. Or you may choose to do the reading aloud for students.
• For tasks that involve measurements, identify the measuring tool.
• Show and read all answer choices before students provide their answers.
• You can allow students to make multiple attempts for incorrect answers. Use the Check button to see if responses are correct. Use the Play On! button to move
  to the next item.
• As the interactions at the dots are completed, the dots connect to reveal a picture.
• Carry on with the next set.
