Feedback: Teacher asks students what task was difficult to them and which pair worked well.

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:

• Provide less able learners with the vocabulary task on the topic so they can make up 5 sentences with the new words.

• Create mixed ability groups for discussion. Ensure they are not always in the role of timekeeper.

• More able learners:

• Work with the vocabulary task on the topic so they can make up 8 sentences with the new words.

• Encourage them to justify their opinions.

• Observe learners when participating in discussion. Did the group dynamics work? Did each learner contribute to the discussion? If not, why not? (e.g. didn’t understand what to do; not so confident speaking English; not interested in topic; other)

• Discuss with the learners what they learned from the lesson. Could they express what they had learned about the topic of the lesson? Could they express which skills they had developed?

Learners work in groups, apply skills and knowledge to a practical and cooperative task. Learners work in groups in the form of the cumulative discussion.

Summary evaluation

What two things went really well (consider both teaching and learning)?

1: Differentiation of the tasks on the vocabulary practice.

2: Dividing learners into groups for cumulative discussion. Playing the game on the film genres using online resource.

What two things would have improved the lesson (consider both teaching and learning)?

1: Work in groups where the learners could be of different abilities (language and prior content knowledge).

2: Paying attention to the psychological characteristics of the learners.

What have I learned from the lesson about this class or individuals that will inform my next lesson?

I will pay attention to the psychological characteristics of the learners in order to distribute the work in class among learners (roles in groups).
