Hello, young learners! Welcome back to Primary 2 Basic Science & Technology, Computer Studies. In our previous lesson, we learned about Definition Of Digital Wristwatch. Today, we’re going to learn about the Parts of a Digital Wristwatch.
Objectives
By the end of this lesson, you should be able to:
- Identify the different parts of a digital wristwatch.
- Show appreciation for the technology behind a digital wristwatch.
- Collaborate with peers in identifying parts and discussing their functions.
Parts of a Digital Wristwatch
Modern digital wristwatches can come with a variety of features and designs, but the basic components typically include:
- Display: Shows the time digitally.
- Strap: This is the part that wraps around your wrist to hold the watch in place. It can be made of different materials like plastic, rubber, or cloth.
- Buttons: Used to set the time and date.
- Case: Encloses the internal parts of the watch.
- Backlight: Illuminates the display for visibility in dark.
- Battery: Powers the functions of the watch.
- Sensors (in advanced models): Modern digital watches, especially sports and smartwatches, may include sensors like pedometers, heart rate monitors, GPS, and barometers. (These can provide various measurements and data based on the wearer’s activity and environment.)
Evaluation Questions
Now that you’ve learned about the parts of a digital wristwatch, let’s see if you can answer these questions:
- What is the function of the buttons on a digital wristwatch?
- Can you name three parts of a digital wristwatch?
- Why is the battery important for a digital wristwatch?
- What are some of the additional features that some digital wristwatches might have?
- How do you think the parts of a digital wristwatch work together to tell time?
Conclusion
Today, we learned about the different parts of a digital wristwatch and their functions. Remember, these watches are amazing examples of technology that help us keep track of time.
