Gaol Lesson Plan

As a teenager, I now look back and realize how vital it is for children to learn to read and write at such young ages. I am so thankful for parents that read books with me before I even started school, and I am also thankful for the teachers who taught me vowel sounds, prefixes, suffixes, and much more. Teachers also taught me that reading could be fun, which encouraged students to want to read in their free time. Reading and writing are unique activities to me because these activities can be used academically or for personal entertainment. Reading has had a huge impact on my life in the past, present, and hopefully in the future.

In comparing and contrasting Gagne’s Nine Events of Instruction and the Lesson Plan provided, I found several similarities. Two such similarities were found in step two of the lesson plan [Lesson Learning Targets/ Objectives (1A) (1C)] and steps two and three of Robert Gagne’s Nine Steps of Instruction [Stimulate recall of prior learning (scaffolding)]. Both deal with identifying objectives prior to the lesson and reminding students of previous learning

I think this book gives us the opportunity to reflect on our roles in our students’ lives, as a general classroom teacher and how we can best help our students develop into active learners and well-adjusted adults. Paley also made us think about how children’s story and classroom community play a significant role in helping children learn about themselves and

For my first FIQWS class assignment we had to write a Literacy Narrative, a famous way for writers to discuss their association with reading, talking, and writing. Numerous education accounts have been composed

Growing up in working class family, my mom worked all the time for the living of a big family with five kids, and my dad was in re-education camp because of his association with U.S. government before 1975. My grandma was my primary guardian. “Go to study, go to read your books, read anything you like to read if you want to have a better life,” my grandma kept bouncing that phrase in my childhood. It becomes the sole rule for me to have better future. I become curious and wonder what the inside of reading and write can make my life difference. In my old days, there was no computer, no laptop, no phone…etc, to play or to spend time with, other than books. I had no other choice than read, and read and tended to dig

Analysis of the three identified stages stated on the lesson planner shall take place within this assignment. Links will be shown between the teaching methods that were incorporated in this lesson planner which met particular learning characteristics, traits and needs of the group or an individual(s) and relevant educational and theoretical principles. The lesson planner has been placed in the appendices, as a referral resource, for this assignment.

The lesson started by reading a story about George Washington. A story that had been read previously multiple time. The teacher focused on the main events and dates. As an activity they were to fill in a timeline with the most important information. Students were to first fill in the timeline on their own, and then they would get in groups to re-read the story together. After, they would discuss what happened in the life of George Washington by using the timeline as a reference for the discussion. At the end of the lesson, students were to return to their seats and were given and envelop with sentence strips to sequence the events of the story. The teacher and I walked around to supervise and to check student’s work. This is mainly how I gathered my data without disrupting the student or making it obvious that I was observing

The traditional history lesson consists of 5 concepts which are outcome, content, teaching, learning and assessment. These five concepts help to teach the prescribed lesson that you are teaching. Early stage 1 which is kindergarten is the stage I have chosen to talk about in this essay. So the early stage 1 concepts that are compulsory throughout all NSW public schools for kindergarten students is the outcome so to communicate stories of their own family heritage and the content is to identify people in their immediate families and show relationships between family members. Teaching, learning and assessment are up to the teacher to make activities for the students to do.

historical context.” I feel some of these lesson plans fall under evidence outcomes a., b., c., and d., because there are lesson plans on important historical documents, such as the Declaration of Independence and the Preamble to the Constitution, which are also lesson plans that pertain to the timeline of North America

The children would need to be able to identify and describe the three types of features, and use observations or photographs to describe the changes of these places over time. To link this learning to include Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures and histories, the children could explore dreamtime and creation stories of these cultures that identify the natural features of a place and how they were

Scaffold: The author uses this term in order to convey the idea that narrative literacy is a ……………..fundamental structure in order to improve student engagements and lessons.

As classrooms are complex and at times unpredictable, unit planning is important to ensure a roadmap for focused teaching and learning with flexible engaging lessons. This unit was tailored for a rural setting to meet Australian Curriculum requirements using the backwards design model (Wiggins & McTighe 2005). Desired outcomes were planned in consultation with the Australian Curriculum, then acceptable evidence of learning and assessment determined. Learning experiences were then designed to utilise engaging and genuine real-world activities to relate shape and area to students’ lives outside school. Finally, the instruction was scaffolded to the students’ numeracy skills and zone of proximal development [ZPD]. The unit fits with my own personal pedagogical philosophy of a student-centred classroom, where students learn through in a positive classroom with social constructivism.

Storytelling is widely used in the primary sector as Dujmović & Bančić (2014) mention that storytelling is enormously a powerful and practical tool in language teaching, particularly for early language learning (p. 16). Interestingly, Wilner and Whittaker (2010) added that 61.4 % of the teachers reported that storytelling is not only used with child learners but also with adults (p. 15- 16). Following this line of thought, Haven

Every teacher is responsible for planning what will be taught to their students every week. Each day the students will have certain activities and work that all comes together under the same category. This is what is called lesson plans, and they are a very important part of keeping the class together and also help the teacher stay organized. There are many different ways in which one can set up their lesson plans, but it is very important to have them done the correct way rather than the wrong way to get the full benefit from them. I was able to find two different lesson plans that represent the correct way and also the wrong way. The correct one I was able to find on reading.org and the other one I found on esltreasures.com. Each one was created for the beneficial knowledge of the student, however they are very different and only one will help them obtain that knowledge.

Throughout the following essay my unit topic of informational writing will be discussed. Next, I will talk about how this topic connects with balanced literacy and give an overview on what exactly it is. Then, I describe the literary stages that a typical kindergarten student would move through with the use of pedagogy and research.
