Option 2 : Showing students a hat, a raincoat and a sweater, and asking them which of these they have used.
Students learn best when knowledge is built based on their previous experiences. When taught through real-life experiences children relate the knowledge they gain to their daily life.
Showing students a hat, a raincoat, and a sweater, and asking them which of these they have used is most relevant as a 'hook' or 'opening', for introducing the topic of 'seasons' because children can recall the experiences of their real-life and relate why we use different clothes at different times.
- Students arrive at the topic seasons from the hat, raincoat, and sweater.
- Here known to unknown and basic to advance strategy is used.
- They get curious about the season's topic because it is being introduced to them by showing students a hat, a raincoat, and a sweater which they are already familiar with.
Hence show students a hat, a raincoat, and a sweater, and ask them which of these they have used for introducing the topic of 'seasons'.
On the other hand, all the other options are less effective as they don't concentrate on the previous knowledge of the student through which a new topic can be introduced with ease.
