Descriptions
The
presentation I have prepared is simulation based on teaching grade III students
about Weather in English subject. The reason behind choosing this topic
is I found it suitable and informative to teach with the use of ICT integration
in the classroom since it is comprehensible to learn through seeing the real
life situation in animated form. In that way, I can convince the information
about the types of weather together without wasting much time delivering
different types of weather to occur outside and then teaching a lesson. The
main objective of this simulation lesson is to help each child to identify and
describe the types of weather like rainy, sunny, windy, and snowy, in their
daily life after learning or going through this simulation. In addition, the
children can comprehend the knowledge of four types of weather in a short period
watching this simulation with attractive gifs, pictures and animations like a
real thing happening around.
How did I create the
materials?
As
a young learner, the animations, sound or music and the colorful pictures in
their learning usually attract children, which enable them to involve and
understand the lesson clearly. To fulfill those things, I have come up with
this simulation lesson through use of ICT integrations.
I
have downloaded the relevant gifs and animated pictures to cover the concept on
weather in order to convince the better information and to let student keep the
information for longer duration. Moreover, the young children love the
beautiful pictures and gifs in their day-to-day learning. The gifs and animated pictures I have downloaded
are interesting and fascinating to the eyes of young children. I have inserted
the background music in the slides because it will boost the student’s
attention in the slides or while learning the lesson on weather. I have also
used simple languages for the younger children to convince with the appropriate
information and let them understand the content well. In addition, I have
written a less relevant sentence using simple language in every slide as per
the children’s capacity to understand and learn the content in their level.
When to use the
materials?
The
materials can be used in lesson development and the learning activity. The reason
is, in lesson development, the information input is addressed and the teacher
can use this simulation to teach the concept along with the examples from the
slides to aid information input in a better way. During learning activity, the
slides can be used to complete the student’s activity as they can use their
previous learnt knowledge from the slides. Moreover, students can explore more
on this content via doing an activity that lets to use this slides.
Furthermore,
it also makes the students to do activity on matching the weather pictures along
with the situation, which ensure retaining information for long duration and
effective teaching and learning.
Activity
Instruction:
1.
You will do the activity individually.
2.
There are five situations according to
the types of weather.
3.
You are supposed to match the four types of weather with the given
situations.
4.
Whoever finished the work first with correct matching will be the
winner and award the mark for 1st, 2nd and 3rd.
You have to say BINGO if you complete
the activity.
5.
You should not discuss and get help from each other and if I happen
to see you discussing then I will not consider your work.
