Teacher explains the goals of the class. We begin by


eliciting from students the meaning of the word
cohesion.
Once it is defined we explore a discussion in regards
to Lord of the Flies. Answer the focus questions out
loud and shape a specific response by writing proper
answers on the board.
Once we have solid definition and good responses
to the focus questions we can start the ICT
application.

The point of this part of the lesson, is for them


to create a website that they can use for the rest
of the unit. The goal is to have a digital
footprint of what they have learned and a
resource to store and search for their notes and
ideas.
1. Instruct the students to open
Weebly.com
2. Guide them through with overhead how
to set-up their page. I will have a
template on the display with the pages
that they will be required to create.
Each part of the unit will have its own
page.
3. I will give the students freedom to
decorate the pages with images and
quotes.
4. For this lesson, they will need to put
the focus questions into the page for
Social Cohesion.
5. This will take most of the time in the
lesson as there is quite a bit of clerical
work in creating a website.

Lesson Plan Template

This lesson will be self-assessed along with peerassessed.


Each student will present their website in the form
of a written reflection.
As part of the assessment process I will have the
students share their web addresses with each
other. They must describe included in their
reflection an assessment of one of their peers
work and how they could give feedback on the
peer.

How is the e5 pedagogy evident in this lesson?


Engage
The students will be engaged through the use of ICT and reflective questions. Relating focus questions to
previously studied novels will help tie the lesson to the students previous learning.
Explore
Students will have the freedom to explore the website and create to their own personal taste. Weebly
allows a lot of customization and creativity for the students to express themselves.
Explain
The focus question will make the students consider the vocabulary for the lesson and help explain the
concepts of the learning goals. They will also be forced to explain their ideas when they write up the
material for their web page.
Elaborate
Students elaborate by creating the website to a point that it will be used for the rest of the unit. The
forward thinking of the website will allow students to have a resource for further studies.
Evaluate
Students will have their website self-assessed in a reflective homework piece. Also they will peer-assess
each other website. The website that is mostly favourably reviewed can be shown to the class as a model.
Does this lesson apply Intercultural Understanding or a Cross-Curriculum priority?
Yes, Intercultural Understanding. By defining social cohesion and the dynamics of Lord of the Flies, students will have a greater
understanding of how our societies are linked and the role that everyone plays in creating a cohesive society.

Does this lesson employ an ICT?


Yes, Weebly.com

their ideas on cohesion and its value to the quality of a
relationship.

The Sporting Carnivals

Explain to students the intention for the class and


what they should be learning (focus questions
alluded to)

Discuss the meanings behind the words resources


and sustainability (much will be rehashing
previous lessons)

Ask students to consider whether lack of


resources effects their ability to sustain the
environment.

Give each student a small card;


Ask students to write a simple yes or no to the
question of, Do resources effect an
organisations ability to sustain the
environment?

Students are to be taken to a football pitch or a local


park. Ensure there is enough space to divide students
into thirds.
Divide the class into thirds (maintain as much
numerical equality as possible

Each third will be labelled (one third will be Rich,


one third will be Moderate, one third will be
Poor)
Once groups are divided, divide the pitch into thirds
also, however this pitch division will be uneven (Give
the Rich group 50% of the pitch, give the
Moderate group 30% of the pitch, give the
remaining 20% to the Poor group)

Ask each group to run a sports carnival of


their choosing in the designated space
with the designated resources they have
been given.
Each group has 30 minutes to organise
their mock carnival
Each carnival must be as environmentally
friendly as possible meaning; It cannot go
beyond the designated area, it must
contain as big a variety of activities as
possible to avoid exhausting supplies in
one field, it must not be overly crowded.

Each group must present their carnival to the class, they


must explain what activities their carnival has, whether
they were able to stay within the designated area and
whether they believed their mock carnival was
environmentally sustainable.
After the presentations, each group must then be given a
sheet of paper where they are to answer Which group
was ran the most environmentally sustainable carnival?
Why? How?
The sheet of paper is to be handed in and the results will
be used for future lessons alluding to sustainability

Assessing the individuals

Each student is to write a reflection on the groups.


Their reflection must contain answers to the following
questions; 1) How important were the resources to the
quality of each groups sustainability? Give an example. 2)
How can you relate your observations from this lesson to
the sporting community? 3) Do you think this process
possesses any moral questions to the accessibility of
sport?
The reflection is due the following lesson.

Which Ausvels standards are addressed in this lesson?


Level 10/P.E.
They investigate different components of fitness, how these vary between activities and how they contribute to the wellbeing of people at
different stages of their lives.

Students are running the lesson. The teacher is a facilitator. They are merely supplied with the guidelines of
what the lesson should include.
Students explore the difficulties of sustainability through the carnivals they run. The guidelines are not
strict enough to hinder their creativity and they also allow students to fall into difficulties they had not seen
originally.
Students discuss the meanings behind the keywords in the class. They also adhere to explanation through
their presentations as they explain their though process and listen to the explanations of other.
Students elaborate by applying what they have learned to the sporting community as a whole. They are
also asked to write a reflection whereby they assess their activity on moral and social standards also.
Students evaluate each other through the presentations at the end of the class. They fill out sheets that
show their reflective observations about the methods they observed.
