This document provides a lesson plan for a 50-minute English class for 6th grade beginner level students. The lesson plan aims to consolidate vocabulary related to actions, body parts, clothing, adjectives, objects and animals through games and activities related to the story of Little Red Riding Hood. Key activities include a true/false animal characteristics game, matching sentences using the connector "because", and creating sentences with "because" to describe animal abilities. The plan also includes warm-up, presentation, practice, production, and closure sections.
Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter 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.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Procedures:
ROUTINE (3 minutes)
I do a roll call and greet the students.
WARM- UP ( 10 minutes)
Students will play in pairs a Trivia Tic-Tac-Toe (which is a game they have played a few
times already) in order to revise some of the characteristics that certain animals have, their
abilities and the parts of their bodies. I will distribute one set of cards to each pair and they
will divide the cards equally without seeing them. After that, students will make a tic-tac-toe
board in their notebooks. They will read the sentences on the cards and their partners will
have to decide if the sentence is true or false. The student who answers correctly gets to
choose a square to draw a cross or a circle. They will play in turns until one student has
three in a row. Once they finish, they will be able to exchange their set of cards with other
classmates in order to continue playing.
PRESENTATION (10 minutes)
I will provide the students with some example sentences that demonstrate the use of
"because" in relation to the animals from the previous game. First, I will read some of the
statements and ask if students think it’s a false or a true statement. For example: “A penguin
can fly, is it true or false?” After students answer “no it can’t fly”, I will add “Right! Penguins
can’t fly BECAUSE they have short wings” or “Yes, spiders can’t skate because they’re very
small”.
Then I will show students the picture of the wolf from Little Red Riding Hood, and I will ask:
“Can the wolf smell? See? Hear? Bite? Why?” (I will elicit students answers “Yes, because it
has a big nose”, “big eyes”, “big ears”, and “a big mouth”)
DEVELOPMENT (PRACTICE and PRODUCTION) 20 minutes
Before we begin with the activity, we will review the main events from the story Little Red
Riding Hood. I will ask students if they remember what happens in the beginning, in the
5. middle and in the end of the story (“Little Red meets the wolf in the forest”, “The wolf goes to
grandma’s house”, “The wolf eats grandma”, etc.).
The wolf’s tricks (10 minutes):
Then, I will hand in the worksheet of the wolf’s tricks, I will briefly explain the meaning of
“trick”, and then I will tell students they have to match the sentences on the left with the
sentences on the right using “because”. Once they finish I will ask for volunteers to read their
answers so we can check them with the rest of the class.
Guided Practice (10 minutes):
Students now have to create sentences using “because” to explain the relationship between
an animal’s ability and a specific characteristic. I will write the following prompts on the board
and students will have to complete them in their notebooks:
_Penguins can swim well because _______________.
_Elephants can spray water from their trunks because _______________.
_Birds can fly because ________________.
_Fish can swim because ________________.
I will tell students to focus on the vocabulary they already know. If it’s necessary though, I
will help them with new verbs or adjectives. I can add more prompts in case we have time.
CLOSURE (7 minutes)
We will play the game “Say it” to review some of the vocabulary that we have been working
with. I will give a category such as, an action, an object, an adjective, an Animal, a piece of
clothing or a body part and pick a letter from the alphabet. I will say something like: “Say an
action that starts with the letter S” or “Name an Animal that starts with the letter E”. So, the
student who says a word from that category that starts with the letter wins that round and
takes the letter. The student with the most letters at the end of the game wins.
After that, we all sing the goodbye song.
Lyrics:
“Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye sunshine,
It’s time to finish,
See you soon,
Goodbye, goodbye goodbye sunshine, goodbye sunshine,
Goodbye!”
