Abstract

          There are three objectives of this research; there were 1) to develop the learning by using series of activity according to ZIPPA in the topic human and environment for the third grade students. The efficiency level was set according to evaluation principle by 80/80, 2) to compare learning achievement of the third grade students at the pre-test and the post-test in learning by using the learning activity series of ZIPPA in the topic human and environment, and 3) to study the satisfaction of the third grade students on the learning management using the learning activity series of ZIPPA.

Thirty-three students studying in grade three were randomly selected to be participants of the study. They were all from U-toompornphisai kindergarten school, under the Office of Sisaket primary education area 2.  

The research findings were as follows:
