منهج الانجليزى ثانوية عامة / معكم الاستاذ / جرجس حنا هارون /Unit 1: (Writers and stories) Lesson: 1





Overview:


The process of education must be accompanied by the school activities that help to enrich the process of teaching, presentation and learning inside the class and outside the classroom.



Students learn through their participation in the attainment of knowledge by gathering information and processing it by solving problems and articulating what they have discovered.



Each activity below provides students with opportunities to deepen their learning by applying concepts and articulating new knowledge and many of these activities also provide the instructor feedback about the students’ learning.




Definition:


Classroom activities are activities done by student inside the class as part of applying or doing the practical part of the lesson after listening to the theoretical part which is presented by the teacher. 



Activities outside class enable learners to explore more knowledge through visiting libraries , responding to and using the environmental realia, using electronic programs and accessing to the  relevant sites of the internet .


The term "Classroom activities" applies to a wide range of skill-based games, strategies and interactive activities that support students' educational development.


The goal of all activities is to enhance students' understanding, skill or effectiveness in a specific area by engaging multiple styles of learning. School activities also serve to infuse fun into learning as well as bolster student confidence and the ability to think critically. 



Calssification of "CCA":



Subject-Based Activities



 Each discrete subject has a series of topics that can be taught or reinforced through activities in which students directly apply knowledge and information to discover meaning.


For instance, educators may use role play in a social studies class in which students act out opposing sides of an issue to better understand the content. In earth science, a teacher may initiate a search and discovery activity in which students identify real world phenomenon they have studied.

Technology-Based Activities



There are numerous Internet and computer-based activities that allow students to experience multimedia learning of subjects such as math and science. These kind of activities include media literacy and software and hardware design projects.




Career-Skills Activities



Often used in secondary education, career skills activities function as a method to prepare students for the world of work. Typically, there is little time for activities focusing on career skills within the normal school day, but out-of-school time and after-school programs can provide this level of learning.





Collaboration Activities


Post high school, however, an individual's success relies largely on her ability to work with others. Collaboration activities cultivate skills such as team work, communication and tolerance. These activities are non academic in nature, interactive and enjoyable.


Pair work benefits:


1-It enriches the skills of listening and speaking.

2- It creates fun and allows the teacher to use games, increase learners' motivation and concentration.

3-If the whole class work in pairs, this will increase learners' attention.

4- It is used in error correction.

5- It increases language fluency.

6 - It is used as an exam practice.

7-It increases the class dynamics as it enriches communication.

8-It offers intensive, realistic practice in speaking and listening.

 9-It promotes a friendly classroom ambiance that is conducive to learning.

Activities inside the class:

1-Pair Work:


Activities which lead to pair work:

  • Roll the ball
    This can be used to practice any language that requires a question/answer pattern. They can roll the ball to each other and have to say the appropriate sentence as they roll the ball.  E.g. “Hello” “Hello” “What’s your name?”" How are you today?"....... etc.  Remember the sentences they practice should be fairly short.
  • Information gap
    Give each pair a picture. The pictures should be nearly the same with two or three elements missing from each picture. Without showing each other the pictures they should describe the missing objects. They will practice color, prepositions of place, and adjectives such as big, small… Then they can compare their pictures.
  • Telephone conversations
    Sitting back to back they can practice telephone language or just simple exchanges that don’t have to be connected to the telephone itself. Sitting back to back should arouse their interest and help train them with listening skills. It’s a challenge, but a fun one!

2-Group Work:


The basic teacher finishes the theoretical part of the lesson . He claps with hands to refer to the practical part.  Pupils are divided into groups.  Each group gathers according to its interest .



Group A gathers together as all its members like to do a research through accessing to the internet.



Group B members gather to practice their design activities through using the material available to make some designs of wood, cartoon, paper and so on.



Group C members gather to do their research through watching relevant video films , CDS or through listening to a cassette tape



Group D members gather to hold a small meeting to arrange their agenda to do an actual visit to the actual fiend in the environment around to gather data abut the lesson assigned.


They will come back after certain period to do an interview with the classmates. The teacher will witness, watch and evaluate. The classmates will become the inter viewers and 2 friends of the group will be the interviewees.





3-Co-operative learning:


It is a successful teaching strategy in which small teams, each with students of different levels of ability, use a variety of learning activities to improve their understanding of a subject.



Each member of a team is responsible not only for learning what is taught but also for helping team mates learn, thus creating an atmosphere of achievement. Students work through the assignment until all group members understand and complete it.



Electronic programs:


 Learners can learn through electronic programs like:

the Hot-potatoes program. This program is used for presenting various exercises of: ( j.match, J.mix, J.cross, J.puzzle and J.close.)

The Role-Play Classroom Activity:


 Role Play Classroom Activity is one of the most commonly used Communicative Classroom Activities which is an excellent way for developing students' Verbal Communication Competence because it can create simulating real-life situations in classroom.



Free Writing / Minute Paper:



These are activities that prompt students to write a response to an open question and can be done at any time during a class. Writing activities are usually 1-2 minutes, and can focus on key questions and ideas or ask students to make predictions.



These activities give students the opportunity to organize their own thoughts, or can be collected by the teacher to gain feedback from the students. Advantages include developing students’ abilities to think holistically and critically, and improving their writing skills.



Ice Breakers



Ice Breakers are low-stakes activities that get students to interact and talk to each other, and encourage subsequent classroom interactions. They can be useful at the beginning of the semester: for example, asking students to introduce themselves to each other and what they would like to learn in the course.



Advantages of icebreakers include: participation of each student, the creation of a sense of community and focusing students’ attention on material that will be covered during the class period.




Think–Pair–Share




This type of activity first asks students to consider a question on their own, and then provides an opportunity for students to discuss it in pairs, and finally together with the whole class. The success of these activities depends on the nature of the questions posed.


This activity works ideally with questions to encourage deeper thinking, problem-solving, and/or critical analysis. The group discussions are critical as they allow students to articulate their thought processes.



Case Studies and



Problem-Based Learning




Case studies are scenarios that apply concepts learned in class to a “real-life” situation. They are usually presented in narrative form and often involve problem-solving, links to course readings or source materials, and discussions by groups of students, or the entire class.


Usually, case studies are most effective if they are presented sequentially, so that students receive additional information as the case unfolds, and can continue to analyze or critique the situation/problem




Debate



Engaging in collaborative discourse and argumentation enhances student’s conceptual understandings and refines their reasoning abilities. Stage a debate exploiting an arguable divide in the day’s materials.


Give teams time to prepare, and then put them into argument with a team focused on representing an opposing viewpoint. Advantages include practice in using the language of the discipline and crafting evidence-based reasoning in their arguments.

Interactive Demonstrations



Interactive demonstrations can be used in lectures to demonstrate the application of a concept, a skill, or to act out a process.


The exercise should not be passive; you should plan and structure your demonstration to incorporate opportunities for students to reflect and analyze the process.



  1. Introduce the goal and description of the demonstration.


  1. Have students think-pair-share (see above) to discuss what they predict may happen, or to analyze the situation at hand (“pre-demonstration” state or situation).


  1. Conduct the demonstration.


  1. Students discuss and analyze the outcome (either in pairs/small groups, or as a whole class), based on their initial predictions/interpretations.




Jigsaw



A Jigsaw is a cooperative active learning exercise where students are grouped into teams to solve a problem or analyze a reading. These can be done in one of two ways – either each team works on completing a different portion of the assignment and then contributes their knowledge to the class as a whole, or within each group, one student is assigned to a portion of the assignment (the jigsaw comes from the bringing together the various ideas at the end of the activity to produce a solution to the problem).



In a jigsaw the activity must be divided into several equal parts, each of which is necessary to solving a problem, or answering a question. Example activities include implementing experiments, small research projects, analyzing and comparing datasets, and working with professional l
