18 10 Small Group - Newstime - Done 1

The lesson plan was for students in year 2 to listen to a podcast about the coronavirus update and answer questions to practice listening for specific information. The feedback commented that maintaining student attention and engagement was challenging due to remote learning issues but suggested engaging students more at the start and breaking up the listening into shorter sections with questions in between.

Title of lesson: Listening to NewsTime: Coronavirus update

Lesson plan

Learning Intention(s): We are learning to listen carefully for specific information


SC:
I can listen carefully for specific information
I can answer questions about the podcast
I can use a full sentence to answer questions

Feedback/Comments

Pace and flow of the lesson is


maintained at an appropriate ✔
level

Transitions managed well


✔
Engaging lesson maintaining I think this would have been a really engaging lesson for them however the chaotic nature
students attention, interest of remote learning got the better of everyone this morning! With kids leaving and
and motivation re-joining and glitching issues it was really difficult.

Pre-load them before you start the LI & SC to ‘hook’ them in - ‘we are going to listen to a
text about something that has been effecting all of our lives with lockdown, sickness etc’.
Ask for their experiences with covid, what do they know. Start with one word - covid for
example. Ask them - what do you know? Leave it really open. This is a really relevant topic
for our students and so hook them in right from the start.

Teacher presence - availability


and openness to students, ✔
general interactions with
students

Assessment/data is collected
effectively and is purposeful ✔ despite how tough this morning was you can actually get good assessment from it for
speaking and listening (students not engaging voluntarily, kept having to ask them
individually to answer, low confidence levels etc).

Follow on from this assessment with taking a step back for this low level group - work on
helping them to find the confidence to say ‘i don't know’ or ‘can you help me?’ if they don't
know an answer, rather than just sitting there saying nothing.

Clear guidance and direction


provided for students with ✔ maybe needed to go through the purpose more clearly at the start. You did this
appropriate question time quickly however it was obvious students weren’t listening (not your fault, remote life!).
Show them the difference between a word and a full sentence in a different context. E.g.
‘wash hands’ is just two words, ‘you need to wash your hands to keep clean and to wash
the germs away’ is a full sentence.

Also explain what a podcast is - used to inform, we can learn from what she is saying, she
might tell us something new so listen carefully etc.

Try one question at a time to simplify it a bit. Play the podcast for one bit of info, stop it,
get kids to tell you what it was about, ask them a question, and then they answer it in a
full sentence. Especially on webex it is really hard for them to focus for long amounts of
time on listening. (And a long amount of time can be anything over 2 minutes in this
context!)
- This was student feedback too from Ibrahim.

Student engagement and


effort is monitored and ✔again really difficult this morning with tech issues but you did a good job trying to
acknowledged keep them engaged.

Constructive and timely


feedback is given ✔ you scaffolded students to answering the questions in full sentences, with a group at
this level (low) this is a really effective way of providing feedback.

The thumbs up reflection at the end and summing up with ‘this is something we can work
on next time’ sets students up for the next lesson.

Effective behaviour
management strategies were ✔
implemented
