 KASIM AYI STEM ÇALIŞMALARI Öğrencilere verimli sulama yöntemlerinin resimleri gösterilir. Resimler tahtaya yapıştırılır. Öğrencilerden bu yöntemleri çevrelerinde görüp görmedikleri ve hangilerini gördükleri sorulur. Daha sonra, hangi sulama yönteminin hangi örneğe uyduğunu bulmaya çalışarak bu yöntemlerle ilgili bir eşleştirme oyunu oynayacakları söylenir. Amaç, su verimliliğini sağlayacak sulama yöntemlerinin farkına varmaktır. Bu etkinlik büyük grup etkinliği olarak gerçekleştirilmiştir. Students are shown pictures of efficient irrigation methods. They are pasted on the board. They are asked whether they have seen them around them and which ones they have seen. They are then told that they will play a matching game about these methods, trying to find which irrigation methods match which example. The goal is to become aware of irrigation methods that will ensure water efficiency. This activity was conducted as a large group activity. "Kayıp Gölün Peşinde: Damla'nın Hikayesi...

 Efi Chatzilia, Kindergarten Armenochori, Greece November: On the occasion of Damla's history, we implemented actions that focus on saving water when watering crops, on getting to know different irrigation and water supply systems, as well as on the construction of an irrigation system and a bridge. Science: the children are concerned about the ways of watering the fields. They conclude that we should choose the appropriate means of watering so as not to waste water. They experiment with watering with a bottle and a sprayer. -Children experiment and discover that different types of soil (soil, sand, pebbles) absorb different amounts of water. Technology: “How does technology help farmers?” Objective: Understanding the role of technology in agriculture. Children watch pictures and a short film with modern irrigation systems (sprinklers, sensors, pipes). Discussion follows: “How can we use robots or sensors to water plants only when they need them?” Children activate their imagin...

  A little drop named Damla visited our class. She told the children a story about a lake that had dried up. The children suggested  how to save water. The children watched the video about the water cycle and placed the pictures in the correct order so that the water cycle was formed. After that the children dramatized the water cycle through a theatrical play. The students drew on a worksheet the image of the rain that was missing from the rain cycle. They continued with STEAM activities.  Science We did in the class the experiment  "Rain Cloud". The students made the rain with water, shaving cream and tempera paint. They were amazed!! Technology The children played digital games about the water cycle and save water. Engineering The children constructed a dam using various materials such as a rectangular plastic container, plastic and wooden blocks, modeling clay, and small stones. They built a wall with the blocks to hold back the water, and around it they placed m...
