Ohio University Early Childhood Professional Development School Partnership Junior Year Experience Lesson Planning Document

Lesson Name/Title: Making Butter and Toast

Lesson Source: Alyssa Bush

Lesson Duration: 2 hours

Learning Outcomes/Learning Target/Lesson Objective:

-I can statement: I can compare different ways of changing an object or material. I can classify the different ways objects or materials were changed. -The objective of making butter is for the students to put their knowledge of physical changes that they learned Tuesday

Lesson Summary /Overview: This lesson is designed to help the students understand physical changes. I am going to teach the students that most of the things that they make everyday consist of physical changes. We are going to be making both toast (a physical change) and butter (a different interesting physical change). This lesson will take place in a first grade classroom.

Common Core State Standards/Ohio Academic Content Standards: Physical Science Grade 1 Motion and Materials This topic focuses on the changes in properties that occur in objects and materials. Changes of position of an object are a result of pushing or pulling. 1. Properties of objects and materials can change.

Assessment Plan (including attachments): The students are able to help each other in filling in the column of what they learned about physical changes in the KWL chart by discussing and raising their hands to answer my questioning.

Lesson Materials: -Heavy Whipping Cream -Container -2 Toasters -Bread

-Salt -Plastic silverware -plates -napkins -SmartBoard

The Teaching Process

(Should include planned, open-ended questions to monitor student learning) 1. Review- What is a physical change? A. What physical changes did they do?

Rationales for Teaching Actions

1. This will allow the students to review and remember what physical changes are.

2. Making Butter A. I will explain that when you make butter, all you are doing is SHAKING. B. Measure how much heavy whipping cream is added C. Pass around the butter shaking- counting to 20 for each child 1. Talk about the process it takes for it to become butter

2. The way butter is made, it is a physical change. We will incorporate math into this lesson with measuring and counting the amount of seconds we will shake the butter.

3. Making toast A. As we are still making butter, I am going to describe that by adding heat, you can also change the physical property of something, such as bread.

3. Toast is another physical change. This allows the students to learn a different physical change that they can see in an average day.

4. Butter is done A. We are going to measure out the buttermilk B. We are going to measure how much butter we made from the amount of

4. We will compare measurements from what we measured before we made butter to what the total amount of butter and butter milk at the end. This will show comparisons in math.

heavy whipping cream we started with. C. We are going to eat and enjoy!

Students will get to eat what they made together.

5. Bringing it all together A. Chart physical changes that they have learned in the final column of the KWL- what they learned Ripping, burn, shake, mix, etc.

5. This will allow me to assess the students and see how much they now know about physical changes.
