During the camp / Lesson
Introduction
Play the trailer of the camp to excite the children. Parents may start the lesson by reading the beginning of the story which leads to the issues that prompt Alfa and friends adventures.
Experiment & Activities
Prepare the experiment kit along with self-prepared items to assemble the kit. Once assembled, let the children explore the kit by themselves to see how it works. Then, proceed with extended activity if there is any to further explore the variables of the specific experiment. Next, ask the children to answer the question in the worksheet to reinforce the understanding. Last but not least, discuss with the children about what they learn and share some fun facts related to the issue portrayed in the camp. Repeat the same process for each experiment.
