    VA Science
    SOL 2.2 and
    related subjects.

    Our main focus during this unit is the VA Science


    SOL 2.2 and specifically parts a and b. Part a focuses
    on forces in the sense of direct contact making an
    object move while part b focuses on less tangible
    forces such as gravity and magnetism causing objects
    to move.
    During the 5E lesson plan of this unit students will be
    utilizing magnets, Newton’s pendulum, and classroom
    objects to investigate forces and conduct experiments
    to discover what gravity, magnetism, as well as a
    direct force does to the object it acts on. The time
    allotted for this lesson is three days.

    This unit uses the influence of the VA Health SOL 2.2


    and specifically part h. Part h focuses on students
    learning to be responsible in maintaining their
    personal safety no matter what environment they are
    in whether it be the classroom, their home, or out in the
    community.
    This unit also incorporates the subject of writing as
    the students will be writing a short essay about an

    5E Lesson Plan Model

    1) Engage - This section of the 5E lesson plan model is


    used to activate prior knowledge within the students
    and grasping their attention so that they will be
    engaged in the lesson. In this unit, I will be using this
    activity to engage the students:

    48b9-8042-
    7ec6b4979474/share/Sldg53e3RJK2VS1YojwCOw

    2) Explore - This section of the 5E lesson plan model is


    where students inquire and conduct experiments so
    that they can learn and explore the topic themselves.

    3) Explain - This section of the 5E lesson plan model is


    where vocabulary is discussed and the concepts the
    students have been exploring get explained.

    4) Elaborate - This section of the 5E lesson plan model


    is where we go more in depth into the topic and the
    students are given opportunities to show what they
    have learned.

    5) Evaluate - This section of the 5E lesson plan model


    is where I evaluate how much the students have
    learned and if there is anything I need to reteach.

    There will be more resources that you can utilize on


    the next page, but this is a great resource for at home
    learning.

    If you follow the link, you will need to scroll down to


    the section called "Science Inquiry from Home" and
    choose the grade your student is in. In this case that is
    second grade. There are many different SOLs covered
    in this document and they provide activities you can
    do right at home with your student. For our units focus,
    you will find part b of our SOL within the first row of the
    document.
