TEACHER PLANNING TEMPLATE Historical Context: What did people already know? Consider how you will set the scene – what historical information will you share and how will you share it? Famous Scientist ___________ What did the scientist notice? Ask the pupils to identify what may have been the reason for further enquiry before identifying this. What question do you think the scientist asked? Establish the key question framing your enquiry. Provide the pupils with a model enquiry to simulate what the scientist did to answer their question Establish which method of enquiry was used: Problem-solving, pattern seeking, researching, fair / comparative testing, observing over time, classifying and grouping Fill in for a modern scientist What would you do next? Plan time to ensure pupils can ask further questions. Future context: What developments have there been / are there now? This could be presented in the form of a discussion, video clips, etc. What did the scientist find out? How will your pupils share their findings, i.e. recording, discussing, etc
