Lesson plan on "One Little Finger" songAime Huarte
This is a lesson plan we had to design for Practice II. It involved a song for small children and a set of activities for them to do. The idea was to present it to our classmates as if they were our students. It was the first approach we had as regards the design of lesson plans and it was fun and challenging since we had to do some research to find the perfect song to teach body parts and re-accommodate the tasks to our students’ level of English.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

1. HUMAN BODY; LEARN AND HAVE FUN!!
This lesson plan is for Primary 2 level kids. Since in my school we are
implementing a bilingual program and I am in charge of it, apart from the 3
sessions of English established by LOE, I teach an Art session and a Science
session through English, too. Therefore, I teach 5 hours per week in English to
my class. Teaching in Primary Education should be a cross-curricular and global
process. That is why, instead of dividing the 5 sessions into English, Science and
Art ones, I will carry out a global and cross-curricular lesson, where activities
belonging to the three subjects are mixed up.
DIDACTIC AIMS OF THIS LESSON PLAN: Once this Lesson Plan finished,
children will be able to:
· Listen and understand the general gist of stories.
· Follow simple instructions.
· Sing a song about the topic.
· Identify, name and label different parts of the body.
· Identify, name and label different parts of the skeleton.
· Identify, name and label different parts of the circulatory system.
· Show comprehension through non verbal answers.
· Use measures, superlatives, comparatives.
· Use ICT to work the vocabulary and structures of the lesson.
2. TIMING:
This Lesson Plan consists of 10 sessions of 55 minutes each. Timing will always
be open and flexible, as we cannot predict, before hand, the length of the
activities planned. More or less, we can count on certain duration, but it will
depend on many factors, such as children’s mood, weather, time of the school
day, if they have had a PE session before, etc.
ACTIVITIES I HAVE PLANNED FOR THIS LESSON PLAN:
WARM UP ACTIVITIES:
o Assembly
o Daily routines: calendar, weather, season, register.
·LEARNING ACTIVITIES:
SESSION 1
Activity 1: Song: “Hokey-Cokey”. Action song to introduce the parts of the body.
Activity 2: Assembly to know about children’s prior knowledge, we can ask them: “What can
we do with our body?”
Activity 3: Science-Art activity. Kids have to articulate the parts of the body in different
actions. We give them four different colour sheets and they have to make four different body
actions by cutting and pasting a paper body and its parts. This activity helps to review
vocabulary, to realize that arms and legs consist on two parts each and to know that the limbs
have movements.
Activity 4: Phonics: Jolly Phonics
3. SESSION 2
Activity 1: TPR Game. “Touch your…” Actions: touch your…, bend your…, stretch your…
First step: I say it and demonstrate how to do it and they look at me. Second step: I say it and
do it and they copy me and last step, I just say it and they have to do it.
Activity 2: Activity sheet about parts of the body and the movement it can do.
Activity 3: Story: “Doctor Monkey”. “Hello, good morning, I’ve got a pain in my… head,
stomach, back, leg.”
Activity 4: Phonics: Jolly Phonics
SESSION 3
Activity 1: Story Map. First I will remind the children the story about the Doctor Monkey and
then we can make an activity about sequencing the story. In a pocket chart and each word
written in a colour card we can make a story map by writing captions of the main elements of
the story (characters, setting, time, beginning, plot, ending) and writing sentences about it.
Then, children will make pictures that illustrate the sentences and match them together. At the
end, we will have a colourful story map displayed on the wall.
Activity 2: Label the human body. In groups of 4, one child lies down on the floor and the
other 3 trace the shape of his/her body on some construction paper. Then, they have to colour it
and label it. Finally we can display it on the wall.
Activity 3: Phonics: Jolly Phonics
SESSION 4
Activity 1: Bodies in Art. Present the children some famous sculptures and paintings about the
human figure through History and Art and talk about them, if they are thin, fat, tall, short, etc.
We can also introduce the names of the authors.
Activity 2: Game: “Burst the bubble”. Game to review the vocabulary. It consists on making
bubbles with a bubble bottle and telling children to burst them with a different part of the body
each time.
4. Activity 3: Activity worksheet: “My body”. Individually they have to label the human body
Activity 4: Phonics: String Matching. The children have to read each word and put the string
through the hole to match it to the correct picture. The aim of this activity is for children to
practice reading by blending the sounds.
SESSION 5
Activity 1: “The magic sentence”. In a pocket chart we put word strips to make the sentence:
“With my______ I can clap”. The children have to guess the word missing. If they do not
know, we can give them clues by showing the first letter (h), then the second one (a) an so on.
Once they complete the sentence, we can enlarge it by adding: “I can also touch, I can flick my
fingers, I can paint, etc”.
Activity 2: “Funny bodies”. We need a paper plate and magazines. Children have to cut parts
of the body and glue them on the paper plates to make a funny body. Then we can display
them on the wall.
Activity 3: Game: “Pelmanism”. A memory card game in which two identical sets of cards
about the topic human body are shuffled and put face down on a table. Players take it in turns
to pick two cards up, turn them over and see if they match. If they do, they keep the pair and
continue playing. The child with more pairs wins.
Activity 4: Phonics: Jolly Phonics
SESSION 6
Activity 1: Power Point presentation. www.kidshealth.org.
First we present the body outside and then inside.
Activity 2: Skeleton talk. We bring to class a real skeleton and make questions to the kids.
“What’s the skeleton for?” And explain them (it holds the body, protects the organs, etc). We
can demonstrate it with a clothes hanger (as if it were the skeleton) and hanging a jacket/coat
from it and checking how it holds up. Then, we can demonstrate the opposite by holding the
coat with our hands (no hanger now) and pulling them away, so the coat will not hold and fall
on the floor, as it would happen if we didn’t have a skeleton.
Activity 3: Skeleton puppet. Make a big skeleton with card and fasteners so it can move. We
introduce the bones skull, rib cage, pelvis and femur.
Activity 4: Game: “Pin the bone on the skeleton”. We can make a version of this famous
game and pin a part of the skeleton, like the femur, rib, skull, etc. Each day we pin a different
bone. We practice the words up, down, left, right.
Activity 5: Phonics. Jolly Phonics
SESSION 7
5. Activity 1: Art: Hand X-ray. We start making questions like: “Can you see your bones? How
do you know that you have bones?” After we listen to their answers we show them a real hand
x-ray. Then they will have to make their own hand x-ray with a black card and a white crayon.
Activity 2: Maths activity worksheet: “Measure the bones”. In pairs, one kid measures the
other kid’s bones and writes it down on a worksheet. With this activity we can introduce the
comparatives and superlatives concepts; longest, shortest, biggest, smallest.
Activity 3: Art: Pasta skeleton. With different types of pasta we make a skeleton and glue in
onto a card sheet.
Activity 4: Game: “Pin the bone on the skeleton”. Today we work with a different bone.
Activity 5: Phonics: Jolly Phonics
SESSION 8
Activity 1: Game: “Skeleton relay”. In four groups, make relays to complete the skeleton on
the wall. Only one child at a time on the wall. When they seat, the other ones in the groups can
stand and play.
Activity 2: Activity worksheet Cut the names of the bones and paste them on the skeleton.
Activity 3: Story. “Bumps in the night” by Allan Ahlberg and André Amstrutz.
Activity 4: Game: “Pin the bone on the skeleton”
Activity 5: Phonics: Jolly Phonics.
SESSION 9
ICT: We will go to the ICT room to practice with the interactive board and the PC’s some
activities related to the topic “Human Body” such as: watching, labelling, word puzzles,
identifying, sequencing and classifying.
SESSION 10
Activity 1: Assembly to talk about their previous knowledge about the circulatory system. We
can ask questions like: Where is the heart? Can you feel it? And your partner’s heart?
With paper rolls we can feel our partner’s heart as if it was a stethoscope. Count the bits in 6
seconds
Activity 2: Math activity: chart to compare the beats. In pairs we count each other’s beats
6. and write them down on a chart.
Activity 3: In a big A2 card with a picture of the human body shape, I will colour the arteries
red and the veins blue. With 3 big blood card drops, a red one, a blue one and the third one half
red half blue, I will try to explain the kids the circulatory system telling them that it is like a
motorway where the blue drop is upset because it has no oxygen, so it has to go to the lungs to
renovate, then goes to the heart, it pumps and travels all around the body.
Activity 4: Activity worksheet. They will colour a big heart, the blood that gets in, red and the
blood that goes out, blue.
Activity 5: Phonics: Jolly Phonics.
REINFORCEMENT AND EXTRA-ACTIVITIES: Slower children can do some activities like
the game “Odd one out” and fast finishers can make a book about the topic including some new
vocabulary.
ROUND-UP ACTIVITIES/FINAL TASKS: pasta skeleton, skeleton puppet and counting the
beats.
