Second Teaching activities
Target group : Year 2 low achiever students
Learning area : Introduction to volume of liquid
Learning objectives : Pupils will be taught to measure volumes of liquids by direct
comparison and by using uniform non-standard unit.
Learning Outcomes: By the end of this activity, pupils will be able to compare the
volume of the liquid by direct comparison.
Resources : Power point
Moral values : Cultivating the habit of not wasting water.
Procedures
(a) Teacher shows two different container. ( a bottle and a glass). (slaid 6)
(b) Teacher asks a question: “ Which container can hold more water ?
(c) Teacher fills up the bottle with water.
(d) Teacher shows to the class there is water left in the bottle. (slaid 7)
(e) Lead the class to make the conclusion: (slaid 8)
“ The bottle can hold more water than the class.”
“ The glass can hold less water than the bottle.”
(f) Teacher shows some pictures and discuss the phrases:
“ Hold more water than”, (slaid 9)
“ Hold the same amount of water as”, and (slaid 10)
“ Hold less water than”. (slaid 11)
(g) Teacher shows some pictures and asks pupil to answer the question.
“ Container A can hold more water than Container B.” (slaid 12)
“ Container C can hold more water than Container D.” (slaid 13)
“ Container E can hold less water than Container F.” (slaid 14)
“ Container G can hold the same amount of water as Container H.” (slaid 15)
(h) Organize the class into group of two. Give two containers to each group. (slaid 16)
(refer to appendix 1)
(i) Ask each group to compare the volume of water the two container can hold, and then
use the following phrases in making conclusions :
“ Hold more water than”, and
“ Hold less water than”.
(j) Teacher discusses the answers with the class.
(k) Teacher distributes worksheet 1. ( refer to appendix 2) (slaid 17)
(l) Teacher distributes worksheet 3. ( refer to appendix 4) (slaid 18)
(m) Teacher distributes worksheet 2. ( refer to appendix 3) (slaid 19)

Volume of liquid
Introduction
Volume of liquid refers to the capacity of liquids in the containers. Capacity can be measured by using non standard units (more or less) and in standard units in millimeters (ml) and liters (l) in the metric system. Investigations amount of liquids which can be poured between containers of different shapes and sizes. Exploration of capacity or volume of liquid involves manipulation of containers of various sizes that may either be collected or purchased for classroom activities.
Misconception on Capacity
Misconception on capacity may arise among the students while teaching Volume of liquid especially when comparing capacity of two containers that can hold more. Students often make the comparison on height rather than its capacity. When asked which hold more, the tall container or a short container, most children will choose the taller container even if the shorter one actually holds more. Thus, it is best to begin the study of capacity by using direct comparison.
Stages of Conceptual Development For Volume of Liquid in Year Two
Measuring is process by which a number is assigned to an attribute of an object or event. One of the measurable attributes in KBSR Mathematics Year Two is the measurement of volume of liquid. A systematic conceptual development will indeed help pupils learnt the topic on liquid measurement more effectively. Based on the measuring process, the following are suggested as pedagogical development for the topic of liquid in Year Two:
o Identifying the attribute for the volume of liquid
o Direct comparisons of volumes of liquid
o Indirect comparisons of volumes of liquid through a reference
o Identifying instruments used as non-standard measurements for volume of liquid
o Measuring volumes of liquid using non-standard measurements
o Introducing standards measurements for volumes of liquid
o Measuring volumes of liquid using standard measurements in litres (l)
