''''Try out your 10 '''talking points.'''
* Form mixed-pace groups of 4 students.
* Start with a team building activity of your choice.
* Set up the discussion – framed by some controversial talking points and using a technique to ensure individual accountability. (For example, ask every child to participate and explain you will pick [students won’t choose!] one from each group later on to report their own opinion and how it may have changed through the discussion.
* Encourage students to '''explain''' their reasoning and understanding to peers, ensuring that everyone understands and any gaps are identified and addressed. This is '''cooperative learning; students are expected to help each other learn.'''
* Monitor the groups to ensure this is happening and that there are no ‘free riders’ or individuals dominating the discussion.
'''Classroom assistants.''' In another lesson this week, we would like you to try to recruit two or more “classroom assistants” to help the younger children with a specific activity, either ICT-based or not. Reflect (using your dictaphone) on whether/how that was useful from your perspective and what the students’ own reactions were?
'''Computer tasks.'''
* Remember to keep practising your typing skills! (The awarding of a certificate at the end of the course will also depend on your typing skills!)
* Find and download images that could be used in conjunction with talking points.
