POE Activity 2: Pedagogical application (Marks: 50) Development of a Full Lesson Planning and execution of lessons with a clear goal in mind are skills that you must use to develop into a successful Mathematics educator. Using all the knowledge and skills that you have accumulated throughout the duration of this module, complete the following: Summary of Task Create an interactive lesson focusing on any relevant topic for a grade 5 class. Your lesson plan should be completed in as much detail as possible and should be approximately 1 hour. You need to include all worksheets and activities that will be completed during your lesson. If any additiona! resources are used, please put effort into integrating your lesson with a theme/unit from another learning area. While preparing your lesson, utilise the following to increase learner engagement and understanding:

• Visual representations.
• The utilisation of hands-on activities and multiple representations to help learners to develop conceptual understanding. All resources (including slides, visual aids, lesson plans and other) must be printed and submitted, in hardcopy to be marked. Should you use physical objects, e.g., dice, please include a photograph of these. Correct referencing must be present wherever required. Consider the following questions before writing your lesson plan:
• Why are you teaching this particular lesson or topic?
• What are the learning outcomes you want learners to achieve as a result of the lesson?
• The topic is Whole numbers addition and subtraction REMEMBER BLOOMS TAXONOMY d..• How will you assess if learners have met these outcomes? What constraints will you have to consider when presenting this lesson? What content should the learners master to achieve the learning outcomes? What teaching strategy will you choose, so that learners achieve the outcomes most effectively? Why did you choose this teaching strategy? What resources will be needed for the lesson? What reflection questions could you (as the teacher), answer once the lesson has been. taught, to evaluate the success of the lesson.

Use the rubric and the guidelines provided below to guide your answer.

Rubric 2: For a Lesson plan

Section A

-Description of target population, lesson information and learning environment shows depth of understanding of classroom dynamics. -CAPS-Specific Focus is listed for each area of the lesson. -Detailed description: • Prior knowledge and skills to be recapped. •New vocab to be introduced. •New content and skills to be taught -Lesson objectives are written, a measurable verb is present in them, they are written from the perspective of the learner, and are clear.

Section B

-A description of curricular integration is given, and it shows how the student teacher intends to implement the Integration -The learners' needs, interests and characteristics are considered and discussed, as well as their implications for teaching and learning of the content of the lesson.

-A discussion about the suitable teaching strategy/ strategies draws on discussions about the demands of the content and considerations of learners, showing pedagogical reasoning about the best way to teach this content to these learners.

Section c

-The lesson is introduced in a logical and engaging manner. Learner participation is encouraged at all levels. Instructions for follow up activities are clear so learners know what to expect and what is expected of them. -Prior knowledge is established. The most appropriate teaching strategy has been selected. Both learner and teacher lesson descriptions are included. Learners are active in the construction of their knowledge. Differentiated problem sums have been clearly drawn up to develop concept. -Includes procedures for concluding the lesson and transitioning to the next or follow up activity. Key points are clearly.. recapped and linked to next learning. -Activities are both creative and attractive for grade 5 learners and cover all the objectives set out.

To effectively plan and execute your lesson use the llE-provided lesson plan template

1. Understanding the Lesson Goal

• Reflect on Purpose: Begin by answering why you are teaching this lesson. What is the core concept or skill you want learners to grasp?
• Define Learning Outcomes: Align your outcomes with Bloom's Taxonomy - clearly state what you expect learners to know, understand, or do by the end of the lesson (e.g., understanding fractions or solving basic word problems).

2. Lesson Planning

• Topic Selection: Choose a relevant Grade 4 topic, considering what is suitable and engaging for this age group (e.g., introduction to fractions, shapes, or basi
