# Lesson 160: Science day presentation

🔬 SCIENCE (40 Lessons) • 🟣 D. Our Body and Health

← Back to Level 1

## Objective

I can share my science work using a short 3-sentence presentation and a mini-poster.

## Materials

- Mini-poster or booklet from previous lessons
- Crayons, pencils, or markers to highlight words
- Prepared speaking card (sentence starter prompts)
- Science object if needed (toy car, toothbrush, seed, etc.)

## Mini-lesson — Sharing my science in 3 sentences

When we share our science, we tell others what we asked, what we did, and what we learned.

The 3-sentence science share:

1. My question: What did I want to find out?
2. What I did: What test, build, or try did I do?
3. What I learned: What did I notice or discover?

What should my voice be like?

- Use a clear, calm voice.
- Point to the poster as you speak.
- Speak slowly so others can understand.

Saying just three clear sentences helps everyone enjoy and understand your science work.

## Guided Practice — Prepare your 3-sentence share

With an adult, practise reading your 3 sentences while pointing to your mini-poster.

1. Say your question: “My question is… ”
2. Say what you did: “I tested… I rolled… I observed…”

## Practice 1 — Highlight my science sentence

Use colours to make your sentences clear.

1. On your poster, highlight your question in one colour.
2. Highlight your What I did in another colour.
3. Underline your What I learned neatly.
4. Add a small arrow or circle to show where to point.

## Practice 2 — Voice and pointing practice

Practise speaking clearly while pointing to your poster.

1. Stand up straight with your poster nearby.
2. Point to the title when you say your question.
3. Point to pictures when you say what you did.
4. Point to words when you say what you learned.
5. Speak slowly so everyone can understand.

## Practice 3 — Present to a friend

Share your 3 sentences with a partner.

1. Stand beside your poster and face your friend.
2. Say your 3 sentences: Question, Did, Learned.
3. Your friend says one positive comment like: “I liked how you pointed to your poster!”
4. Switch roles and listen to your friend’s presentation.

## Quick Check — Science day presentation

Answer each question about science presentations.

1) What is the first sentence in a science presentation?

“I ran around the playground.” “My question is…” “I like ice-cream.”
We start with our science question.

2) Which sentence tells what you tested or tried?

“I am hungry.” “This is my name.” “I tested… I rolled… I observed…”
This tells what you did.

3) What does “What I learned” tell?

What you discovered or noticed. What your teacher ate. What time school ends.
We share our results or discovery.

4) How should you speak?

Very fast and loud. Slowly and clearly. Whisper quietly.
Clear voice helps others understand.

5) What helps the audience follow along?

Turning your back. Hiding your poster. Pointing at pictures and words.
Pointing guides the audience.

6) Which sentence should you start with?

“My question is…” “I learned that people eat bread.” “My favourite game is tag.”
Science presentations begin with a question.

7) Which shows good presenting?

Looking at the floor. Looking at the audience and poster. Singing loudly.
Look up and share clearly.

8) Which is a science question?

“Who is the tallest in class?” “Where is my shoe?” “Which car rolls faster?”
It asks something we can test.

9) What does “What I did” tell?

The experiment or test you tried. Your favourite food. How many people live in your town.
It describes your science actions.

10) When should you point to pictures?

When talking about the weather. When telling what you did. When saying goodbye.
Pictures help explain actions.

11) How many sentences are used in this lesson’s presentation?

1 sentence 10 sentences 3 sentences
We use 3 simple sentences.

12) Finish this sentence: “My question is…”

A science question you tested. A joke you made up. A birthday wish.
It must relate to your science.

13) What should your speaking voice be like?

Fast and hard to follow. Slow and clear. Quiet whispering.
Clear voices help everyone learn.

14) What belongs on your mini-poster?

A shopping list. A cartoon about dinosaurs. Your question, what you did, and what you learned.
Your poster shows your science steps.

15) Why is science sharing important?

It helps others learn from your work. Only teachers can learn science. It makes people forget science.
Sharing helps everyone learn science.

## Assessment (parent/teacher)

Student can say their question clearly with the sentence starter. Student can explain what they did using simple words. Student can tell what they learned or observed. Student points to pictures or words while speaking. Student uses a calm, slow speaking voice.

## Exit ticket (student)

😀 I can share my science in 3 sentences. 🙂 I can present but I still need some practice. 😅 Presenting still feels tricky for me.
