To think about…
How are you going to ‘hook’ the students’ interest?
How will you ensure a strong conclusion so everyone goes away clear about what they’ve learned and enthused about the topic?
Are you using a variety of learning strategies over time?
What methods of formal and informal assessment will you use?
How will you ensure that all students are appropriately challenged? / Engaging all pupils in discussion when walking around the school. Worksheet provided to challenge all pupils, and should be fine to use with mixed abilities.
Is there a KS3 strategy focus? (eg. literacy, numeracy) / Using mapping skills.
Homework: (if timetabled this lesson) / Finish worksheet started in class.
