Learning objectives

Main Objective: Help improve students' writing English through the practices of different patterns of writing.

Other objectives: Help them learn writing though others' writing as given under patterns like narration, description, comparison and contrast, definition, etc.,  and practice them; provide a comprehensive understanding and including the heuristics for reading and writing critically, embrace and value the core humanistic values of integrity, empathy, and respect for differences, comprehend and value literature from various cultural and national tradition, via reading narrative, descriptive, argumentative, definition essays, as well as to develop competence in research, communication, and problem-solving via writing.

 

Context (attention grabber, activities to get to know the students)

The teacher attempts to connect with the students' daily experiences and activities as he starts the class with a poem, a short tale, and/or a presenting motivational video relevant to the chapter. After that, the teacher only spends the first two to five minutes of class discussing the previous day's discussion. The teacher then requires the students to participate in daily activities and experiences, asks them if they have any prior knowledge of the topic covered in the chapter, and encourages and facilitates them by employing advice and counseling to share their experiences and thoughts.

 

Resources

 Multimedia: projector, marker, textbook, reference text, research articles, journal writing, academic and non-academic writing docs.

 Prepare video audio related to chapter,  also assign students to record audio, and video, use already available audio video, form a group of the presenter and assist them to perform, reciting a poem, acting and Helpout, roleplay

 

Experience (Teaching methods and other activities that make use of all   the   5 senses of the students)

 

Reflection (questions

that affect the heart)

Ask to write, share the analysis,, extension and experience of the text, create first impression question and assist them to interact based on descriptive, analytical, argumentative, cause and effect, definition, and critical, free and guided writings.

 

Contribution to core skills (Numeracy, ICT, Competencies)

The teacher facilitates class discussion and teaches the writing process, emphasizes TR, GRA, CC, and LR, and teaches students to read and write simply to challenging work while developing critical academic vocabulary, literary concepts, and analytical abilities. Following each session, students will have the opportunity to pose insightful questions to further their understanding of the writing and construct their best academic and non-academic writing as well.

 

Follow up exercises

(homework, project,

hands on experiences

Inductive and occasionally deductive approaches are used, as well as CBLT and Bloom Taxonomy, etc

Discuss the text, and then move on to the textbook activities.

Teach students about the various types of academic writing, such as descriptive, analytical, argumentative, cause and effect, definition, and critical writing. Each of these types of writing, whether free writing, guided writing, or Para- orthographic writing, has distinct language characteristics and purposes.

Request that the reflection on the video and audio used in the classroom be written.

Create first-impression questions and annotate the text.

Make a PowerPoint presentation, present it in class, and upload it to Google Classroom if needed.
