8. Animal School: A Fable to Reflect on
Classroom Processes
The animals organized a school to help their
children deal with the problems of the new world.
And to make it easier to administer the curriculum
of running, climbing, swimming and flying, they
decided that all their children would take all the
subjects. This produced some interesting issues.
Let the fish swim. Let the rabbits run.
Let the eagles fly.
We don’t want a school of average
ducks.
or, Play to people’s strengths.

• PAUSE before result.
Don’t show rest of viz yet.
STUDENTS:
Observe first part of viz
TEACHER:
• Ask students to make
prediction: “What will
happen if …”
STUDENTS:
• Make prediction – write,
vote, discuss with each
other
TEACHER:
• Shows rest of viz, which
has result
STUDENTS:
• Check their prediction by
watching the result in viz
Predict Phase Check Phase

18. Flipped Classroom
 Decide how you will use your class time and
design those activities.
 Find or create resources for students to use
at home
 Teach students how to use the material at
home.

argument for his or her choice.
• Debrief by calling on a few groups to summarize their discussions.

28. 1. Engage: Real life situation, problems and examples.
2. Variety: Role play, assignments, fieldwork, hands on experiments, group discussion
and ppt presentations.
