My fourth ICT integration lesson reflection

My Fourth ICT Integration Lesson Plan

Lesson Plan no. 64

Name of teacher: Tobgay       

Name of teacher observer: Mrs. Dechen Wangmo      

Date: 14th November 2021    

 Period: 3rd       

Duration: 50 minutes

Class: IV and V (MGT)       

No. of students in class: 24      

Subject: Science                            

 Topic: Our Earth 

TLM: Projector, Laptop, and Screen

Lesson Objective(s): By the end of the lesson, a child will be able to 

  1. investigate the effects of the rotation of the earth from the youtube link.
  2. can design a model of the earth and say the effect of rotation of the earth on the occurrence of day and night.

In the introduction, I projected the link https://www.dkfindout.com/uk/space/solar-system/day-and-night/ to build the background foundation of the solar system and revise what learners already knew about the solar system. During the lesson, I asked a few questions like- What is a Solar system? What are there in the solar system? Does the moon have its light? What revolves around the Earth? Then I wrote the topic Earth on Board and said that today we will investigate the effect of rotation of Earth on.




Lesson Development: In the lesson development, I again projected the link  https://youtu.be/hWkKSkI3gkU on screen. We had thorough discussion whenever felt necessary while projecting the lesson and used question and answer technique in the activity. We discussed what causes day and night, the tilt of the axis, what is rotation, and the time it takes to make a complete round.Also to built further experience, I used https://solarsystem.nasa.gov/resources/2393/earth-3d-model/ to let students experience the shape and rotation of 3D shape of Earth.







Closure: Finally, to evaluate my lesson, I have grouped my learners in 4 groups of 6 members each. I provide clear instructions on how the quiz will be conducted and the award of points for the direct question and indirect questions. Used the link https://kids.playquiz2win.com/class-4/movements-of-the-earth/ and carried out the quiz in groups. I have assigned my students to prepare a model of the earth as homework and bring it to the next lesson and they are expected to explain the effects of shape and rotation of the earth using the model.





What went well: Since we couldn’t have contact teaching last year, it was important for me to teach the same lesson using the MGT strategy of whole-class teaching as both the classes can revise and learn new things. I learned that using ICT to teach such topics is very convenient for the teacher to plan the lesson and students can feel through eyes and ears the entire solar system around the earth. Children learn better through ICT. I have achieved the lesson objectives without any doubt.

What didn’t go well: as always, our school location being in remote doesn’t have good internet connectivity, where we have to wait in the middle of lesson for connectivity when connectivity drops. This kills the interest of learners and we have to wait patiently. And whenever I integrate ICT in the lesson for all the components of the lesson, I land up not being able to finish the lesson on time.
