WEEK-BY-WEEK CURRICULUM
PHASE 1

BODY + WEATHER + SPACE

Weeks 1–3
  1. WK 1
    My Body Tracker
    Heart rate counter app. "How fast does my heart beat after running?" Log and graph results.
    Thunkable
  2. WK 2
    Weather Station
    Record temperature, rain, wind daily. After 4 weeks → graph it. See patterns. Real science method.
    Thunkable + Python
  3. WK 3
    Solar System Explorer
    Animate planets orbiting sun. Click for facts. Size comparisons. "Jupiter = 1,300 Earths!"
    Scratch
PHASE 2

EARTH + LIFE

Weeks 4–6
  1. WK 4
    Volcano & Earthquake Sim
    Click volcano → eruption animation. Earthquake scale visualizer. Tectonic plates explained.
    Scratch
  2. WK 5
    Plant Growth Tracker
    Grow a real plant at home. Measure daily. Log in app. Graph growth over 4 weeks. Real experiment!
    Thunkable + real plant
  3. WK 6
    Water Cycle Animation
    Animate evaporation → clouds → rain → rivers → ocean → repeat. Label each stage.
    Scratch
PHASE 3

LIGHT + SOUND + LIFE

Weeks 7–9
  1. WK 7
    Light & Shadow Lab
    Draw objects + light source. Code calculates shadow direction. Time of day changes shadow angle.
    Python Turtle
  2. WK 8
    Sound Visualizer
    Clap, whistle, shout → see waveforms. Loud = big wave. Quiet = small. What IS sound?
    Scratch + mic
  3. WK 9
    Food Web Builder
    Drag animals into food chain. Sun → grass → rabbit → fox. What happens if you remove one?
    Scratch
PHASE 4

ELECTRICITY + SHOW DAY

Weeks 10–12
  1. WK 10
    Magnet & Electricity Game
    Guide electron through wire. Avoid resistors. Reach the bulb. Circuits as a game!
    Scratch / Turtle
  2. WK 11
    Team Science Project
    Pairs pick a science topic. Build an experiment + simulation. Present findings.
    Any
  3. WK 12
    SCIENCE SHOW DAY
    Present favourite experiment + simulation. Real science. Real method. Certificates.
