Agenda: Instructional Materials and Strategies:

1. Number Heads Together:

a) Divide the students into groups of four and give each one a number from one to
four.
b) Pose a question or a problem to the class.
c) Have students gather to think about the question and to make sure everyone in
their group understands and can give an answer.
d) Ask the question and call out a number randomly.
e) The students with that number raise their hands, and when called on, the student
answers for his or her team.

2. Socratic Group Discussion

The open-ended question is restated. Using their notes as support, students
enter the discussion responding to the initial question.

class period.

manner. The student-reporters act like an authority of the topics assigned to

nowadays, are digitally-oriented individuals and this is a clear way of coping their
21st century needs.

aided by the hyperlink, transitions, and animations. And of course, various
guidelines in preparation and evaluation of instructional materials must be
observed

skills of the learners particularly on listening and speaking skills.
