Related characteristics: 1, 2, 3 and 4
Demonstration of standard: The lesson plan was developed for a year 6 English class, with focus on rap poetry.
The lesson plan is a demonstration of strategies used to support literacy learning including group work, promptive questions and incorporating student interests within the lesson. The development of this lesson plan required the pre-service teacher to research the concepts and structure of rap poetry. This element is vital to ensure the teacher is relaying correct and appropriate information suitable to the students level of learning. Valid concepts were identified and strategies were executed to achieve this. The use of technology (the teachers I-Pod), encouraged a high level of student engagement within the lesson. Listening to an example of a rap song increased student understanding towards rap and lyrical content.
