{{activity|small group work}} Working in pairs or small groups, and using the [[OER4Schools/activity_template|activity template]], plan a brainstorm activity that could be part of a lesson you might teach in your subject area. | {{activity|small group work}} To help you structure your planning, we provide an activity template. Working in pairs or small groups, and using the [[OER4Schools/activity_template|activity template]], plan a brainstorm activity that could be part of a lesson you might teach in your subject area. For the brainstorm consider: | ||
* What do I need to know about students’ knowledge or understanding of the topic? What will I ask them to brainstorm? | |||
* What will I do with the results? How will we build on that in the rest of the lesson? | |||
The activity template includes the following sections: | |||
* what the activity is (a technique such as a brainstorm, group work, mini blackboard use plus an activity in which it is used, eg “a brainstorm on what animals are found in your environment”), | |||
* the grade, | |||
* the subject & lesson topic, | |||
* what the (learning) objective of the activity is (e.g. to find out what students already know about topic X), | |||
* resources to be used (such as blackboard, mini blackboards, paper, objects, etc), and | |||
* how is the activity carried out. | |||
On the template, list some open and deep questions to ask in the class in order to challenge pupils and get them thinking! Try out some of the ideas you have learned about today. '''Record specific questions on the template.''' | |||
