This course is aimed at primary school teachers who want to improve both their knowledge of science didactics and the key ideas of physics in the primary school curriculum. The course will focus on the development of the big ideas of physics, related to forces and motion, light and sound, electricity, energy and thermal phenomena, as well as experimentation with resources and methodological strategies that promote their progression.
The scientific education of children is one of the pillars of today's education system. Teaching to think scientifically implies being able to design learning situations that favour the development of scientific practices (inquiry, modelling and argumentation). Doing so, however, requires mastering, among other aspects, the mastery of scientific content and its didactics.
In this course, the aim is to update, from a didactic perspective, the physics content to be worked on in the curriculum, focusing on forces and movement, light and sound, electricity, energy and thermal phenomena.
This training is based on providing elements to help teachers make use of the big ideas of physics to design contextualised learning situations that favour the development of scientific competence. It will also allow the identification of how these contents are related to specific key ideas that evolve throughout schooling, making their progression evident.
The course is designed in an intensive way during 4 mornings in July, which is the month for teacher training.
- Physical interactions
- Light in primary school
- The sky, the sun and the moon in primary school
- Energy in primary school
- Electricity and magnetism in primary school
- Gravity and buoyancy in primary school
- Simple machines in primary school
