30 Oct - Action Research in the Classroom with 3-Caring











On 30 October, during our Science lesson, 3-Caring pupils became young researchers as they were involved in an Action Research project. The purpose of my project is to evaluate whether pupils would enjoy learning Science through music and songs. Pupils were given 2 worksheets with the same questions. For worksheet A, they had to complete it based on their prior knowledge. After that, a mp3 song about Mammals was played. Through the song, pupils would be able to answer all the questions in the worksheet. After the pupils had listened to the song twice, a comparison of the answers on both worksheets was made. There was a significant improvement in Worksheet B as compared to Worksheet A. After completing both worksheets, pupils were given a questionnaire for them to provide feedback about this learning strategy.
