Standard : VIII Volume : I,Page no:48-49 Strength : 3/3 Period : 2 Duration : 30 mins Date : |
Theoretical Overview
The Advance Organizer Model is based on the theory of Meaningful
Verbal Learning advocated by David P. Ausubel. It is a statement preceding the
lesson that is designed to help the learner store and retrieve material which
is learned and to develop the information processing capacity.
Curricular Statements/ Focus
The learners
- listen attentively for a reasonable amount of time
- develop
curiosity for knowing more about shipwreck
- guess the meanings of unfamiliar words and sentences
- develop LSRW skills
Support System
- PPT
Entry Behaviour
The learner
- might be aware of the aspects learned in the last class
- might be aware of storm and drowning.
PHASE- 1: PRESENTATION OF THE ADVANCE ORGANIZER
The teacher asks questions based on the last class.
- How did Caraballo and Castillo vanish?
- What is the meaning of the word gigantic?
- What was the absurd thing done by the narrator?
PHASE- 2 : PRESENTATION OF LEARNING TASK OR MATERIAL
Teacher reads the next paragraphs of the lesson A SHIPWRECKED SAILOR, by Gabriel Garcia
Marquez.
Teacher asks the students to read the paragraphs and mark the
difficult words.
1. Battered /ˈbatəd/:
strike repeatedly with hard blows.
Teacher directly
provides the meaning.
2. Panicking /pænɪkɪŋ/:
feel or cause to feel panic.
Teacher provides
Malayalam equivalent of the word പരിഭ്രാന്തരാകുന്നു
3. Ducking /dʌkɪŋ/: push
or plunge (someone) under water
Teacher provides the
word in a sentence to make the meaning clear.
The kids were ducking
each other in the pool
Teacher presents active reception learning by asking students how
the learning material supports the concept.
- ‘I made a last try.’ What was the ‘last try’ made by
Velasco? Was he successful in it?
- What is the meaning of the word ‘panicking’?
PHASE- 3: STRENGTHENING OF THE COGNITIVE ORGANISATION
Teacher makes the students write the summary of the paragraph.
A Shipwrecked Sailor was written by Gabriel Garcia Marquez. In
these paragraphs there was a heavy
storm. Valesco shouted and said that he could not row towards him, but he was
doubtful whether he heard it or not. The crates of the cargos disappeared and
the raft was lurching in the heavy sea. Instantly Valesco was
five meters away from Rengifo and had lost sight. Later he appeared in another
place, he wasn’t afraid but he was struggling hard to stay afloat. Valesco hold
out the oar, hoping Rengifo could get close enough to reach it, but he was
losing heart and was sinking. He was waving his hand and slowly disappeared.
Valesco rowed his raft helplessly to reach him. Unfortunately two meters away
he was drowned and sank forever.
Prepare a slogan on the topic ‘Life Motivation’.
DO NOT GIVE UP THE BEGINNING IS ALWAYS THE HARDEST……… |

in a PPT for more clarity Respected
Principal ,teachers and my dear friends. Today I am standing here to tell a few words
on the topic “Helping Others: The Purpose Of Life “Happiness
begins from the moment you do
something for others. Those who consistently help others, are happy
and do not come across any obstacles in their lives. Research indicates that
they are less stressed and experience improved mental health. The purpose of life is to serve others. However, when
doing so, you should not expect something in return; your intention should be
to lessen other people’s misery. “Service to others should be sincere and
done from the heart; only then it is fruitful.” Do any trees eat their own
fruit? No. This teaches us that human beings should not only use their mind,
body and speech for themselves, but also to serve others. When you do this,
nature in turn will reward you.
Your constant inner intention should be towards helping others. If you
are unable to do so for any reason, you can also make sure that you do not
hurt anyone. This is an indirect way to help those around you. Thank you Teacher provides opportunity to maximum students to
present their version of the speech and edits if necessary. |
