MATH STRAND : SHAPES
SCIENCE STRAND : MATERIALS AND MATTER

“Dan telah Kami jadikan di bumi ini gunung-gunung yang kokoh
supaya bumi itu (tidak) goncang bersama mereka dan telah Kami
jadikan (pula) di bumi itu jalan-jalan yang luas, agar mereka
mendapat petunjuk” (Al Qur’an, Al-Anbiya (21) : 31)

“Dia membiarkan dua lautan mengalir yang keduanya kemudian
bertemu, antara keduanya ada batas yang tidak dilampaui
masing-masing. (Al Qur’an, Ar-Rahman (55) :19-20)


To answer the inquiry question, Cayla applies her research skill by doing Ice Cube Experiment. Through her experiment, she has learned a fusion change of state. In her final product, she is able to transfer her understanding about the changing process from solid to liquid into a poster. In order to maximize her learning, she also demonstrates her critical-thinking skill to learn about ordinal numbers. In this case, she has gained a new concept that the first ice cube to melt is the one that heated by a torch, the second is the one in the table and the third is the one in the fridge. To sum up, she has acquired Islamic value, Science and Math knowledges through 1 activity.
