Formative assessment and feedback (S6)

To challenge and extend the pupils
my questions are: S1b, S6b

What questions do we need to answer about our animals? How can we go about
this?

What techniques and strategies am I

using to assess the learning? (S6b)

Class discussion
Pic collages

How and when we I give

oral/written feedback to the pupil
against the success criteria so that
they can respond? (S6d, S2a)

Explain to children that we will be using iPad to make some
presentation work about what we have learnt so far in our topic
lessons. The first thing we are going to do is list all the vocabulary
we have learnt so far. Write How does your garden grow in the
middle of the WB, ask children to volunteer some words they have
learnt to do with the topic, model mindmap on WB.

25 minutes.

25 minutes.

Children have 5 minutes to write their own list of words they have
learnt on their WB individually.
_______________________________________________________________________________
Bring class back together. Explain that we will be using word/tag
cloud (as we have previously done in topic) to create a wordmap
using the vocabulary from their WBs. Model use of tagcloud using
AirServer.
Children have 10/15 minutes to create and save their own piece of
work. Demonstrate how to save.
_______________________________________________________________________________
Explain that next we will be making typedraw pictures, using the
same words from our WBs. Ask children to go online and find a
bright, large colourful picture of a plant (show good example) and
save it to their iPad, give them 5 minutes.
Remind children how to import their saved flower picture into
typedraw and type in their words. Model changing the text colour to
match parts of the plant on their imported picture. Demonstrate
how to save.

25 minutes.
Finally we will make a piccollage, which should be familiar as
children did this last week.
Firstly explain that we will need to put a few sentences on our
collages, ask for a volunteer to give a sentence about something we
have learnt and model on WB. Give children 5 minutes to write
down a few sentences about what they have learnt.
Children then find appropriate images and create their piccollage
using images and their sentences. Put their name on the image
corner. Demonstrate how to save.
