Class : 4 Science

Time : 8.00 am-9.00 am

Theme : Investigating the relationship between living things and the environment
Learning Area: 1.0 Dynamic Ecosystem
Learning Outcomes : A student is able to identify the abiotic components of an ecosystem

Phase Content Teaching and Learning Activities Note

Engage - Hot and Cold - Teacher get student’s ideas - Abiotic components =
- Refer to appendix A - Students are aware of their prior Non living chemical and
knowledge physical factors in
the environment
Empower - Refer to appendix B - Emphasis is on field study for the - Discovery
students to reinforce their - Humidity sensor
understanding in this area Conduct - Temperature sensor
a field study to: - Light sensor
-Identify the abiotic component - Scale map of experimental
including temperature, light area
intensity and humidity of an
ecosystem.
Enhance - Refer to appendix C Teacher guides students to reflect
on their ideas

Appendix B

Procedures:
1. First, select the target area that passes through the green park, field, shady area, classroom and parking lot.
2. Draw a map of the selected areas.
3. On the route decide five stop where we are able to take measurement.
4. Place the temperature, humidity and light sensor inside radiation shield
5. Then, attach the radiation shield to the top end of the pole.
6. Turn on the discovery.
7. Take the reading of humidity, light and temperature of the selected areas.
8. Transfer the data from the discovery to computer.

Discussion:

1. Study the result that you obtain:

i) Which area has high temperature, light intensity and humidity?
ii) Which area has low temperature, light intensity and humidity?
2. The abiotic components give effect to the environment. Reason out.

Pulau Tiga is one of the biggest island in Sabah. It was formed because of the exploded of volcanoes. The mud volcanoes are rich of nutrient that can
smoothen and lighten of our skin. Mud is rich of sulphur that can kill bacteria at our body.

What are the abiotic component that can make people are suitable for mud bath?
