LESSON PLAN

Final Product

Throughout the year the key competencies that I propose for this course are multilingual competence, personal, social, and learning to learn competencies and creative competence. Inside these key competences I will be using specific competences to achieve along this year, there are inside the area of Discovery and Exploration of the Environment, the specific competence that I have chosen is recognizing elements and phenomena of nature.
Inside the area of knowledge and representation of reality, the specific competence that I have chosen is Value the linguistic diversity present in their environment to enrich their communicative strategies and cultural background. Lastly, I have chosen the basic knowledge that the children are going to achieve along this year:
  • Time and its organization: day-night, seasons, cycles, calendar.
  • Temporal location of daily life activities.
  • Qualities or attitudes of objects and materials.
  • Color, shape (flat figures and geometric bodies), size, texture, smell, thickness, temperature... and their physical behavior (falling, rolling, sliding, bouncing, etc.)
  • Relationships of order, seriation, correspondence, classification and comparison through manipulation, observation, and experimentation.

Assessment

My assessment criteria which that I am going to use is the following.According to the aim of the content the assessment is going to be formative, because I will be doing in a continuous way writing every single aspect. So the children will be improving the aspect that for them in a individual way is more hard for them, because every one of them have different cognitive capacities and ways to learn. In addition the evaluation will be a criteria assessment due to the fact that I will assess every child respect their own capacities and not comparing them with the other student.














Sequence of activities

The class in which we find ourselves, the children range are from four to five years old. Specific they are on the last year on the infant education and the next year they will be at their first year of primary school.

One day, one child for his birthday gave him a book about balloons, he brounght it at class, because he liked it. We were reading the book in class but in English. So the exchange language teacher translates the book whose was in Spanish to English. Before they read the book between them, the teacher will teaching the new words in a funny way, because the vocabulary might be complex for the tehm, thanks to this, they won’t be as lost as they would to if they didn’t do this learning before to read.

Meanwhile the children were reading the book along the teacher, the teacher was emphasizing the phoneme of the words, to make the acquisition the word with the sound. Because the children are  Spanish speakers, so they don’t know how to pronounce the English words, so thanks to these the children will be able to make this comprehensible input and to break their affective filter in their mind who is related to their scare of the second language.

The child who brought the book wanted to decorate the class for his birthday with balloons, so he brought a plenty balloons to the class. After he brought the balloons, the teacher had seen that the children were so exciting for the balloons, that they wanted to decorate or do something related to the balloons on their birthday.

The teacher took advantage of that exciting moment, to propose to the children to make their own specially balloons for their birthdays. This balloon will be made it for their classmates, like a present for him or her on their birthdays

After the day of the birthday of the child the class we will be dedicate a whole six days to explore the environment of when, how, and what characteristics we have of the month of what weather is it.

The six days we will be dedicated to one hour per day of the week to an activity related to the birthday of the child. The activities that they are going to do are the following ones:
