This lesson plan introduces 6th grade students to sports vocabulary in English. It aims to focus on speaking and writing skills while using a multisensory approach including videos and flashcards. The plan includes activities to revise and classify sports vocabulary into categories like individual/team sports and extreme/Olympic sports. Students will identify sports in a video, complete a survey on likes/dislikes, sort flashcards into columns, and fill in vowels to form sport names. The plan is for two 6th grade classes totaling 37 students between ages 11-12 who speak mostly Spanish in class but can identify English words.
For the subject Practice II, we had to write a narrative about what were our feelings towards teaching and how we manage to teach inside the classroom.
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.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

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 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.

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.

Class Description:
Students are between 11 and 12 years old. They are 20 students in 6th “B” and
17 students in 6th “D”. The class starts after the break.
Most of the time they speak in Spanish but they manage to identify and use
English words appropriately. When they have to work in pairs, they may need
the guidance of the teacher as regards grammar structures of the language but
most of the class is able to work on their own. Students participate actively
during English classes and the last unit they have seen was “healthy and
unhealthy food”.
Lesson aims:
As teachers we’ll try to:
Focus on macro skills (speaking and writing) considering learners’ ages to
acquire language.
Use multisensory approach to favor learners’ motivation and acquisition of
language (video and flashcards).
Introduce vocabulary related to sports: those practiced in groups or
individually.
Introduce Olympic and Paralympic Games notions.
Objectives of the lesson:
During the lesson students are expected to:
Revise and activate the vocabulary related to sports: football, baseball,
hockey, basketball, ice skiing, skateboard, boxing, karate, etc.

and Paralympic games notions.
Activities:
Routine: (5’)
We are going to post on each of the classrooms a sheet of paper colorfully
designed by us with some threads hanging where we are going to put each of
our students ‘ names ( with a clip). Every time they enter the classroom, they
will have to pick up their names and hook them up on their aprons. Before we
leave the classroom, they have to put them back so they can pick them up next
class.
“1, 2, 3, silence please” (make use of it whenever the teacher/pedagogical
partner sees it necessary)
Breathing activity. Since one of the classes starts after the break, we will invite
our students to stand next to their desks and imagine they have a balloon inside
their hands. They are going to inhale and when they exhale, the balloon is going
to be a little bit bigger than before. We are going to repeat this procedure three
times and at the end, we will imaginary pop the balloon.
Warm up:
Introduce the new vocabulary. (10’)
Introduce the new sports first through visual aids. Stick the flashcards randomly
on the board.

Ask students:
Do you practice any of them?
Would you like to practice any of them? Why?
What is your favorite sport?
What sports don’t you like? Why?
(It is likely that our students will answer most of these questions in Spanish but
we will provide them with English input)
ACTIVITY 2: (10’)
Likes and Dislikes. Students will have to form groups of four in order to answer
a survey. Each of them will have to complete a photocopy with ticks or crosses
depending on their answers.

ACTIVITY 3: (15’)
We will divide the board into two columns: Olympic sports and Extreme sports.
We will give each of our students a flashcard to stick on the board wherever
they think suitable.
Then, a photocopy with the right answers will be provided to check.
ACTIVITY 4: (5’)
In the same photocopy, students have incomplete words in which they will have
to add the needed vowels in order to form different sports.
