Title: Super Man Theme Lesson Plan: Waterproof and Non-Waterproof

Grade Level: 6 years old

Objective: - Students will be able to differentiate between waterproof and non-waterproof materials. - Students will understand the importance of waterproof materials in everyday life. - Students will develop critical thinking skills through hands-on activities.

Materials: - Various objects made of waterproof and non-waterproof materials (e.g., plastic bag, sponge, paper, cloth, aluminum foil, etc.) - Recording sheets (one per student) - Chart paper and markers - Super Man-themed stickers or rewards

Pre-assessment (10 minutes): 1. Show students a waterproof material (e.g., plastic bag) and a non-waterproof material (e.g., paper). 2. Ask students to touch and feel both materials. 3. Discuss with the students what they notice about the materials. 4. Record their responses on the chart paper.

Good Starter (5 minutes): 1. Introduce the concept of waterproof and non-waterproof materials by discussing how Super Man’s suit is waterproof. 2. Show a picture of Super Man and ask students what they know about him. 3. Explain that Super Man’s suit helps him stay dry even in the rain because it is made of a special waterproof material. 4. Ask students if they know any other waterproof materials.

Critical Thinking Questions (10 minutes): 1. Show students different objects made of waterproof and non-waterproof materials. 2. Ask questions such as: - Why do you think this material is waterproof/non-waterproof? - How would you test if a material is waterproof or not? - Can you think of any other objects made of waterproof/non-waterproof materials?

Activity 1: Waterproof or Non-Waterproof? (15 minutes): 1. Divide students into small groups. 2. Provide each group with a set of objects made of waterproof and non-waterproof materials. 3. Instruct students to touch, feel, and examine each object to determine if it is waterproof or non-waterproof. 4. Students should sort the objects into two categories: waterproof and non-waterproof. 5. Encourage students to discuss their reasoning with their group members. 6. Students should record their findings on the recording sheet.

Activity 2: Waterproof Experiment (15 minutes): 1. Provide each student with a small cup of water and a variety of materials (e.g., cloth, paper, plastic, aluminum foil, etc.). 2. Instruct students to predict whether each material is waterproof or non-waterproof. 3. Students should dip each material into the cup of water and observe what happens. 4. Students should record their predictions and observations on the recording sheet.

Activity 3: Design a Waterproof Umbrella (20 minutes): 1. Explain to students that they will be designing a waterproof umbrella for Super Man. 2. Provide students with materials such as paper, plastic, aluminum foil, and tape. 3. Instruct students to design and create their own umbrella using the materials provided. 4. Encourage students to test their umbrellas by pouring water over them. 5. Students should record their observations and evaluate the effectiveness of their umbrellas on the recording sheet.

Conclusion (5 minutes): 1. Gather students together and review the concept of waterproof and non-waterproof materials. 2. Discuss the importance of waterproof materials in everyday life. 3. Reward students with Super Man-themed stickers or rewards for their participation and effort.

Note: The recording sheet can be a simple table with two columns labeled “Waterproof” and “Non-Waterproof” for Activity 1 and Activity 2. For Activity 3, the recording sheet can have space for students to draw their umbrella design and write their observations.
