Select
 What standards or LOs were being addressed in the lesson? – Food chain.
-Students will create food chain by hand on activity.

How did you cater for learners with special needs, and for differentiation? In 2-A we don’t have
special need students. For students I differentiation the activities by the academic level of
students specially the low students I helped them when they did the activity by ask them
who will eat the grass.

How did you use positive reinforcement? Methods? For what? In the ending I choose quite students
to come and order from 1 to 5 of stage of food chain and I reinforcement by give them stickers.
How did you sequence or scaffold activities so that they built gradually towards the learning
objectives?
I sit with my MST and we share the student’s levels of activities to gather and we discussed special
for emerging students and we thinks I should to help them tell them in Arabic what they should to
do.

Overall aim and context of the lesson (that is, describe the lesson’s place in the unit of work. What
did students need to know before today’s LOs were addressed? What topic comes next and how did
today’s lesson prepare students for that?)

Students should to think and know what will learned by I showed them picture of food chain and I
let them to turn and talk and think what will learned. Also in the end of the lesson I asked students
to tell us what they learned. And they should to know the vocabulary of the lesson in both languages.
I prepare for the students video and power point with pictures to make sure they are understand.

Describe
Who is the lesson for? Grade 2-A 25 student’s boys and girls.
Where did the lesson take place? It was in the science classroom.
What were you aiming to achieve in your lesson? I try to achieve that planning for learning and
the activities to fit student’s level.
What experiences did you provide to the students to help them to achieve your aims for them?
Using timer and different manipulated tools like pictures to helped them understand.
Analyze
Were students excited, always occupied, and remained on task during the lesson? The excited
thing that students like acting like they were grass, grasshopper, frog, snake and eagle to eat
each other.
Why do you think the students responded the way that they did? They were engage to acting like a
food chain to eat each other and to see the video. They all responded to me because they were
enthusiastic and they understand the lesson and activities.

How well did your teaching relate to the students’ prior understanding?

In grade 1 student are learning about animals in science subject. I connected the science
content to creating food chain using pictures. Also we act like a food chain; I found that this was
effective, because the students were able to do activities and acting. And I assess students
during doing their activities using notes.

Appraise
Explain the nature of the experience from the students’ perspective.
In my opinion, students understand the concept of food chain using video and sample of food
chain by pictures. And while I monitor emerging students in their groups I write in my notes they
don’t draw some stage.
Did your lesson meet your teaching goals? Use your students’ performance on the end of lesson
assessment as support (Give proof in your portfolio)
My first goal was enhancing students when they were act like they are food chain to eat
each other by 60%. Also I think I did it with 50% because the activities develop student’s
creativity for instance students made by cups and plates using pictures of animals. Although
in the end I used formative assessments.
Transform
How might you enhance student learning of this lesson in the future? For my future practice,
I will look for opportunities to let students explain for each groups to shear their ideas.

What are the implications for your professional practice of helping students to enhance their
learning in this particular way? (i.e. what skill will you have to develop or learn? What professional
development will you have to undertake?) I learned the students didn’t make noisy focused in the
hand on activities and in the video because make the students busy and they liked to used make
food chain activities.
