Built around practical outdoor study during Term 3, this 9-page Grade 1 Environmental Activities record outlines 8 weekly instructional blocks. Lessons guide young learners through the natural world around the school and home, utilizing the local compound, garden plots, picture flashcards, and short video presentations.
The curriculum concentrates exclusively on the strand Resources in Our Environment:
- Water (weeks 1 to 3): locating neighborhood water sources, sketching water points in colour, listing domestic chores that need water, and practicing tap conservation.
- Plants (weeks 4 and 5): walking through the school garden to identify roots, stems, and leaves, drawing plant diagrams, and watering seedlings.
- Animals (weeks 6 and 7): naming common domestic livestock and pets, followed by logging routines for daily watering and feeding at home.
- Term Review and Closing (week 8): managing end-term evaluation tests and entering learner marks into progress record booklets.
You can record learning dates, timetabled periods, and daily feedback in the pre-built tables, with bottom rows set aside for deputy headteacher signatures and school stamps. The file is provided in Standard Coursebook Edition as an editable Word document and a companion PDF.
