Learners work individually. They should think about 5 Wh questions as “What? Who? When? Where? Why? How?” Then, learners peer assess each other on these questions. Five “W’s + H” questions Write down their definition in the newspaper article structure in the columns (connected with the natural disaster you are going to write about). Question | Completed question | What? | | Who? | | Where? | | Why? | | How? | | (Modelling) What? – What type of natural disaster happened? Who? – Who suffered in this disaster? When? – When did this disaster happen? Where? – Where did this disaster happen? Why? – Why did this disaster happen? What are the reasons of it? How? – How did this disaster happen? Descriptor: A learner Task 3 (7.W1) “At first hand” E-learning: teacher displays the video of natural disaster Active learning : acting out the role play : hot news BBC Differentiation: different modes of learning: visual , kinesthetic and audial learners Teacher demonstrates the video about “Aral Sea” to learners. This way the teacher can visualize the disasters. Because some of the learners in the class can be visual learners, while some can be audial ones. For kinesthetic learners teacher will use the method of TPR by using certain actions to remember. Aral Sea 1989-2014y Imagine that you are a journalist. You are going to the city where the natural disaster happened a day ago. You interviewed the city residents and watched the places that were damaged. After that you should write a report describing what happened and how the disaster affected the life in the city. Include the following information: • Name of the city (Where did it happen? What was the name of the city? country?) • Type of the natural disaster that happened (What type of disaster was it?) • The number of victims (Were people warned about the disaster? How many people were killed? How many people were injured? What was the total number of victims?) • How people feel after the disaster (How did people feel after the disaster? What did people do?) • Describe in what ways the city was damaged (Was the city seriously damaged? How many houses were destroyed?) • What people plan to do to minimize the effect of the possible disaster in the future (What do people want to do now?) Descriptor: A learner Assessment criteria: 1) Write between 70-100 words. 2) Vocabulary range (words and phrases related to natural disasters). 3) Follow the structure of a newspaper article. Home task: Write a newspaper article about one of the natural disasters which happened in Kazakhstan. Pay attention to the structure of an article. Assessment criteria: Linking words to show the coherence and cohesion of the article | Reflection. Ship | | Additional information | Differentiation – how do you plan to give more support? How do you plan to challenge the more able learners? | Assessment – how are you planning to check learners’ learning? | Critical thinking | More support: More support: Create mixed ability groups for discussion the elements of a newspaper article structure and presenting it. Ensure they are not always in the role of timekeeper. More able learners: Differentiation of the writing task. Create mixed ability groups for discussion the elements of a newspaper article and presenting it. The more able learners have the roles of leaders in groups. | Teacher will conduct self assessment sheet with a ship in the middle. Learners should paint the flag of ship into corresponding color. If you liked the lesson and you successfully coped with all the tasks - paint the flag in green If it was difficult for you at the lesson, but you could come to the right answer, color the flag in yellow If it was difficult for you to cope with the tasks in the class and you need the teacher's help - paint the flag in red. | Learners work in pairs, apply skills and knowledge to a practical and cooperative task. Learners work in groups in the form of the cumulative discussion on the newspaper article structure. | Reflection Were the lesson objectives/learning objectives realistic? Did the learners achieve the LO? If not, why? Did my planned differentiation work well? Did I stick to timings? What changes did I make from my plan and why? | Health and safety check ICT links Safety rules. Health saving technologies. | Summary evaluation What two things went really well (consider both teaching and learning)? 1: Writing drafts of newspaper articles, exchanging with the peers, peer – assessment of the drafts according to the assessment criteria. 2: Differentiation of the tasks in writing practice. What two things would have improved the lesson (consider both teaching and learning)? 1: Paying attention to the psychological peculiarities of the learners. 2: Dividing students into groups with mixed abilities (more able and less able learners in one group). What have I learned from the lesson about this class or individuals that will inform my next lesson? I will try to give the roles to the learners according to their abilities not only in the knowledge of English, but also the roles in class. | |
