This 3.5 mins. video illustrates a Grade 7 Zambian teacher, Brian, facilitating a whole class dialogue on renewable sources. (The background noise is a heavy rainstorm!)
Questions for reflection are: ● Notice that the teacher asked the pupils to explain their reasoning in selecting renewable and non-renewable materials. How successful was he in doing this? ● How can you get children to justify and provide reasons for their responses? ● What did you think about the horseshoe seating arrangement for this activity? Would this be feasible or effective in your classroom? What other seating arrangements do you know and when might you use them? Share ideas.
