Professional Development Plan

(What do YOU need to work on in order to grow professionally?)
I believe that all teachers have different abilities in teaching and dealing with the students, so in my opinion, I think
that every teacher must be patient for the students. This is because each student has different level of understanding
the lesson and some of them need more explanation to understand the main idea of the lesson. Moreover, I need to
plan well for my lessons with varied managing strategies and different activities to let students learn and check their
understanding of the lesson.
1. Choose and describe an aspect from a teaching competency that you need to work on (Goal):
In this lesson, I will be working on (questioning) through doing the experiment. This is because grade4
students need to develop exploring and independent skills that let them to explain their answers immediately.
2. Describe what you will do to help achieve your goal (Strategies Used) make a list of questions at
different levels of bloom’s when lesson planning:
I will use to ask students varied questions through communicate with them. Also, I will use video to link
their prior knowledge about the lesson and they have to discuss what are the similarities and differences.
3. Describe how you can tell if you’re achieving your goal (Evidence) list of student responses, or
worksheets
Grade Level: Subject: Learning Outcome (ADEC code and words):
Grade 4 Science I can identify different types of extreme weather.
 Title of Lesson:
 Extreme weather (Typhoons, Hurricanes and
cyclones).
The problem that students are trying to solve or
investigate (in my own words):
 Students will identify how many types of
hurricanes that we had in the world and where
it’s located.
A brief description of my Lesson in my own words:
 There are three different types of extreme weather
(hurricanes) such as Typhoons, Hurricanes and
cyclones. Each of it located in different area of the
world.
The outcome or product of the students’ investigation
(i.e. what will the students be expected to produce at the
end of their investigation)
 At the end, students will identify the different types
of hurricanes (Typhoons, Hurricanes and cyclones)
and where it’s located

The outcome or product of the students’ investigation (i.e. what will the students be expected to produce at the end of their
investigation)

• Students will be able to explore different types of hurricanes (Typhoons, Hurricanes, and cyclones).
• Students will be able to classify each type of hurricane (Typhoons, Hurricanes, and cyclones) in the where it’s formed.

Essential Question: Guided Questions:

 What are the three types of hurricane?  What do you think a hurricane is?
 How do you think they are formed?
 Has the UAE ever been affected by a hurricane?
 Where do you think these occur in the world?
 Learning Outcomes (including strand and substrand)
• Students will be able to explore different types of hurricanes (Typhoons, Hurricanes, and cyclones).
• Students will be able to classify each type of hurricane (Typhoons, Hurricanes, and cyclones) in the where it’s formed.
