TP - 020309

Class: Year 4

Lesson: Continuation of the previous week's lesson on 'googling'.

Lesson Objectives:

For pupils to:

1] Utilize the Internet as a tool for searching for information.
2] Be able to deduce the correct information found.
3] Be more skilled in typing and working with MS_Word.


Questions Given:
a) What is the fastest land animal in the world?
b) Where is the longest river in the world?
c) What is the capital city of Thailand?
d) Who is Neil Armstrong?


Outcomes:

Most of the pupils were able to remember what they have learned the previous week and this week's lesson has enhanced their skills. Few pupils were sadly, still unable to even really read, let alone work with the PC and understand instructions. I grouped these pupils together and gave them a much simpler task; typing a short or numbered composition about themselves. Although they managed to only type 'my name is .....', I was still happy with what they did and I praised them like I did the others.

I was also observed by my TP supervisor in one of my Year 4 lessons, and the results so far, is good. I will be observed again after the school holidays.
