Task
Prepare a Design Brief for classroom distribution, appropriate to
the age group (Year 1-2 Primary) you will be teaching, and a teacher planning
document. It should be designed to be implemented in a classroom
over a period of several weeks.
It should be presented as a program which could be used
immediately with a group of students. Therefore, planning should
be thorough and detailed, with all teaching aids prepared (not
included in word limit) or described. Ideas for activities can be
original, derived from a practical situation, or taken from a teacher
resource book or website, modified for your content. It must be
linked to at least two other areas of the curriculum (for example,
Maths, English, SOSE, etc). It must also involve the use of
ICT, either by you as the teacher to engage the students, or by the
students as part of completing the task. The ICT component does
not need to be submitted as part of the assignment, but reference
must be made to any links and the use of ICT must be highlighted
in the planning document.
Presentation It is to be submitted via Learnline.
