D’. S. Expo(Division Science Expo)

Banner Program for Science

Rationale

Science is essentially a method of discovering the world, which is something that most children/learners love to do. However, to many students, "science" still resembles an inaccessible subject — something only geniuses conduct in secret laboratories. In reality, science is a process we use every day. To foster love for science various activities should be introduced to constantly engage learners.

Objectives

The Division Science Expo is a program that is anchored on LCEP’s three main activities which aims to:- Use inquiry based learning (IBL) to promote critical thinking and communication skills through Science Fair;

Objectives

- Conduct Science camps to promote social skills, environmental awareness and “off-school science learning” (for least mastered competencies/skills).- Conduct science competitions (for both teachers and learners) to promote creativeness, innovativeness and camaraderie through Science Congress.

Activities, Tasks, Time Frame and Resources

• Division Science Fair TASKS 1. Learners communicate their creativeness and

innovations through: • Display Board Presentation of SIPs• Oral presentation of SIPs
