LSK3701 ASSESSMENT 2 COMPULSORY FORMATIVE ASSESSMENT:

This assessment comprises short essay and discussion-type questions that require your active engagement, practical experience, critical thinking and reflective response.

QUESTION 1: 1.1 Define scientific literacy and discuss its significance in helping young learners understand the concept of “Bees and Their Importance in Nature.” How would you teach the basic principles of observing and understanding bees, such as their role in pollination and their habitats, to foster scientific literacy in the Foundation Phase?

Scientific literacy, as defined by Goodrum, Hackling, and Rennie, refers to an individual’s ability to engage with and understand scientific concepts, question claims, draw evidencebased conclusions, and make informed decisions about environmental and personal wellbeing.

The South African curriculum further expands on this by emphasizing scientific knowledge, understanding the nature of science, awareness of science’s role in society, and willingness to engage in science-related issues (OECD, 2006).
