Les élèves explorent le cycle du jour et de la nuit en triant et en classant des images, en créant des images et en lisant des livres.

Montrez aux élèves le diaporama Qu’est-ce qu’un cycle? [diapositives Google] [pptx] [PDF]. Utilisez les titres des diapositives comme questions directrices et reportez-vous aux notes d’allocution pour les réponses suggérées. Content-slideshow title |
Images et vidéosDécrivez les images du diaporama pour les élèves ayant une déficience visuelle. En outre, il est possible de fournir aux élèves des objets physiques avec lesquels ils pourraient interagir et qui sont similaires à ceux utilisés dans le diaporama. |
Action: Activités du centre (15 minutes chacun = 45 minutes au total)
Instructions | Conseils d’enseignement |
---|---|
Répartissez les élèves en petits groupes pour les activités du centre. Les activités peuvent se dérouler simultanément ou successivement. Passez en revue les instructions de chaque centre avec les élèves, en leur montrant comment procéder. |
IdéeRéglez un minuteur visuel pour chaque rotation afin d’aider les élèves à gérer leur temps de manière appropriée. Liens communautaireIl peut s’avérer nécessaire de préciser que les activités se déroulent au moment où les routines ont lieu et qu’elles ne tiennent pas compte des fêtes religieuses (p. ex., ceux qui observent le ramadan prennent leur repas le soir après le coucher du soleil). |
Centre Activity 1: Sorting Corner (Night vs Day) Students explore the different symbols associated with night and day. Students will look at the images from Centre Activity 1 Images reproducible [Google doc] [Word doc] [PDF] and determine if the images are related to day or night. The Sorting Mats learning strategy could be used here. |
DiscussionsLes questions de discussion peuvent inclure:
|
Image - Text VersionShown is a black and white diagram of one circle labelled "Day" and another labelled "Night", filled with illustrated cards. Demonstrate how to sort a few of the cards with the whole class. |
Community ConnectionsConsider incorporating images that are more relevant to the lived experiences of the students in your classroom. IdeaThe use of manipulatives would also be an effective way to engage students. |
Centre Activity 2: Craft Corner Students follow the instructions on the Night-Day Spinner Activity Card reproducible [Google doc] [Word doc] [PDF] using the Night-Day Spinner Template reproducible [Google doc] [Word doc] [PDF]. Demonstrate for the students how to do each of the steps. The activity card will act as a visual reminder when doing the activity on their own. A completed spinner can also be provided to students so that they understand what they are to create. Exemplar day-night spinner (©2022 Let’s Talk Science). Students should draw images of objects and activities that take place in the day on the day side of the circle and of night on the night side of the circle. |
SafetyStudents may need additional help/supervision when using the sharp pencil to poke holes. IdeaIf spinners are too challenging for students to make, they could use the template to make day-night signs. In this case, they cut the template along the centre line and attach back-to-back with a craft stick in between the layers. Exemplar day-night sign (©2022 Let’s Talk Science). Community ConnectionsThis is a good opportunity for students to share personal and cultural activities that relate to day and night. Those living in Northern communities have a different cycle of night and day due to the 24 hour cycles of darkness and light depending on the season. |
Centre Activity 3: Story Corner Listen to the read aloud version of the book Day and Night by National Geographic. Note: For the National Geographic read aloud book, pause the video on the “Your Turn” parts, to allow students to complete the tasks. Alternatively, read Sun Up Sun Down by Gail Gibbons or listen to the read aloud version here to learn about night and day. |
Images and VideosAsk students if they would like to hear/see the video more than once. |
Consolidation: Show and Share 20-30 min.

Using the Night and Day - Show and Share reproducible [Google doc] [Word doc] [PDF] have students choose either day or night. Ideally you want about half of the students to choose each. Note: The reproducible has both the day and night versions of the show and share. Print out accordingly and ensure students get the version that corresponds to their choice. |
IdeaStudents could use the images from centre activity one to complete this activity, by taping images that correspond to the questions. LanguageAdd potential responses to the questions to a word wall. These could be in multiple languages. |
Have students write and draw images that answer the questions. Once finished, have students bring their sheets and sit in a circle. Have students who completed day sheets alternate with students who completed night sheets (to mimic the cycle of day and night). Have students take turns sharing their answers. |
IdeaIf students prefer not to share in front of their peers verbally, encourage them to hold their work up or share one-on-one at a later time. |
Background Information for Teachers
Day and Night
Image - Text Version
Shown are two colour illustrations, side-by-side, of the same street, during the day and at night.
Each illustration has three tall houses, in a row. There is one tree to the left, and two to the right of the row.
In the left image, someone is sitting under the two trees. The sky above is light blue with a bright yellow sun and little white clouds. A rainbow curves from the bottom left corner, to the right side.
In the right image, no one is sitting under the trees. The houses are dark, but light shines from the windows. The sky above is dark purple with gold and white stars. A half-moon shines in the top right.
