    Madeleine Green taught a science lesson on clouds to a Grade 4 EAL class. She engaged students with a cloud "web" brainstorm and notes on cloud types using a PowerPoint she created. Students worked in groups to put the cloud formation process in order on a worksheet, then played a "Who am I?" game to review cloud types. The observer noted Madeleine established challenging learning goals and adapted her lesson using multiple strategies and resources. For future lessons, the observer suggested Madeleine focus on setting differentiated goals for individual students.

    Inquiry/ Clouds 35 mins focus areas

    Intro
    Madeleine did a quick review of the last topic, which was severe weather. She transitioned by explaining
    to the students that clouds effect the weather. And that learning the types of clouds can help them
    predict serious weather conditions in the future. Standard
    Big Question 3.1 -
    How are clouds formed? Establish
    Brainstorm challenging
    Madeleine engaged the class with a cloud “web” brainstorm. The students shared all their knowledge of learning
    clouds and discussed it with each other. Using the CLOUD PowerPoint that she created the students
    goals
    took notes and looked at real life pictures of clouds.
    The students shared what each cloud type reminded them of to make connections to the content.
    Worksheet
    To check for understanding, Madeleine gave the students a worksheet with some challenging vocabulary Set explicit,
    that required them to put the process of how clouds are formed in the correct order. Using their challenging
    resources and teacher support they were able to complete is successfully. and
    Conclusion/Share achievable
    The students were able to find answers to the big question by playing the “Who Am I? Game. During this learning
    game, the students had to write factual creative clues to describe each cloud type. This game not only goals for all
    generated relevant discussion but also allowed students to stay on task and focused on the big question.
    students.

    Strengths of the lesson (link to Graduate Standards (AITSL) where appropriate)


    The highlighted aspects of the lesson observations links to the APST standard 3.1 and provides evidence that the
    graduate level 4 (of standard 3.1) is being achieved:
    ‘Implements well-constructed learning goals… excellent planning, adapted to the class context, which utilises a
    range of teaching strategies’
    The lesson demonstrated that these preservice achievements are being implemented and achieved as the learning
    goals are being adapted throughout the lesson as students’ knowledge and skills grow. Furthermore, students are
    using multiple resources (PPT with videos, interactive game – Who am I? – and vocabulary worksheet) so that the
    lesson is being delivered in a way that suits all learners.

    Developmental targets arising out of this lesson (link to Graduate Standards (AITSL) where appropriate)
    Focusing on level 5 of the graduate standards, I will challenge myself to improve on setting differentiated learning
    goals for individual students, rather than generalised class goals. Although I used the multiple resources and a range
    of strategies that accommodates to the majority of the class, adapting lesson plans needs to be improved.
