· Use a combination of drawing, dictating, and writing to compose informative/explanatory texts in which they name what they are writing about and supply some information about the topic.
· With guidance and support from adults, explore a variety of digital tools to produce and publish writing, including in collaboration with peers.
· Confirm understanding of a text read aloud or information presented orally or through other media by asking and answering questions about key details and requesting clarification if something is not understood.
· Add drawings or other visual displays to descriptions as desired to provide additional detail.
Objective (*Three components are observable verb, learning outcome, and measurement. *Aligned to state standard and evidence of mastery):
· Students will learn comperhension by recalling details.
· Will correctly define 9/10 vocabulary words by writing the definition of each.
· Following along, reading, and summarizing simple stories with pictures
Teaching Procedures (to include introduction of the lesson, and step-by-step procedures for the activites to promote student inquiry and checking for students’ understanding over the course of the activites)
Gather the Corduroy books that I plan to use for the lesson (A Pocket for Corduroy by Don Freeman) along with a stuffed bear to use when students are ready to begin writing and piecing their own adventure stories together. This particular lesson will focus on the book, A Pocket for Corduroy. The students will attentively listen to the story and will be asked to create their own stories electronically. Corduroy will allow the students to gain a personal connection by having close interactions with a stuffed bear and develop their own adventures with Corduroy. I will also provide envelopes for children to use as pockets. Tell them to draw a picture of something to place in their pocket. On the outside of the envelope, children write clues about what is inside. The rest of the class reads the clues and tries to guess what the pocket contains.
UDL Technology Integration (describe one UDL component and explain how it will be integrated into the lesson):
In this particular lesson there is a flexibility and openness that is available to allow the students to demonstrate their knowledge and skills of the content. There are not any strict guidelines for how the student presents their electronic adventure, based on the Corduroy story.
The assignment is organized in multiple points for choice of presentation:
· Free choice of resource materials,
· Free choice of access (text, digital, audio),
· Free choice of response style.
Instructional Technology (describe one instructional technology device and explain how it will have class-wide incorporation into the lesson): .
I would also implement AAC devices. These devices will be particularly ...

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.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

For the ALS Teacher/Instructional Managers/Learning Facilitator:
Welcome to the session guides of this module entitled What is the Meaning of This? (Drawing Generalizations)
under Learning Strand 1 Communication Skills in English of the ALS K to 12 Basic Education Curriculum
(BEC).
The module and the session guides were collaboratively designed, developed, and reviewed by select DepEd
field officials and teachers from formal school and ALS, and private institutions to assist in helping the ALS
learners meet the standards set by the ALS K to 12 Basic Education Curriculum (BEC) while overcoming their
personal, social, and economic constraints in attending ALS learning interventions.
This learning resource hopes to engage the learners in guided and independent learning activities at their own
pace and time. Furthermore, this also aims to help learners acquire the needed 21st Century skills while taking
into consideration their needs and circumstances.
As an ALS Teacher/Instructional Manager/Learning Facilitator, you are expected to orient the learners on
how to use this module. You also need to keep track of the learners’ progress while allowing them to manage
their learning. Moreover, you are expected to encourage and assist the learners as they do the tasks included
in the module.

in Lesson 1 – Trying This Out with them on page 4.
Let the learners read the text Where are the Main Ideas Found? on
page 5.
Instruct the learners to read the news report on “Downpour topples
2 electric posts, cuts power in Sta. Rosa City” found on page 7. If
they have access to internet ask them to view the news using the link:
https://newsinfo.inquirer.net/1172630/heavy-downpour-topples-2-
electric-posts-cuts-power-in-sta-rosa-city#ixzz61Be6rRIc.
Use the hints found on page 7 to determine the main idea of the
paragraph.
10. 2 WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS?
session guide 1
Ask this question: What is the point that the author is trying to make
in this passage?
Then, use the hints found on page 8 to determine the main idea of
the paragraph.
What. Does the passage talk about a particular event?
Who. Does this passage refer to a person or group of people?
When. Does the information contain a reference to time or
situation?
Where. Does the text name a specific place?
Why. Why did the power supply cut off?
How. Does this passage state a fact or an opinion?
Read examples on Activity found on page 8.
Answer items 3, 4, 5, and 6.
2. Analysis
Discuss how to get main ideas. Use the discussion on page 9 of the
module. Let the learners answer Let’s Practice on page 10. Continue
the discussion on Making Inferences on pages 11–12. Then, ask the
learners to answer the following questions:
· Where do main ideas usually found in the paragraph?
· How do you express main ideas?
· How do you make inferences?
3. Abstraction
Emphasize to the learners that in getting the main idea or key idea,
they have to consider the following:
· Author’s key message. Oftentimes, the author’s key message is
directly stated. There is no room for doubt on what the author
is trying to say.
· Sometimes, ideas are indirectly stated. They are not clearly
spelled out. In that case, it calls for making inferences.
11. 3
Drawing Generalizations
session guide 1
· Inferences are made from indirectly stated ideas. It involves
reading between the lines, or looking for what is hidden or
implied in indirectly stated ideas.
Let the learners read the text in Understanding What You Did on
page 12.
4. Application
Present the Sharpening Your Skills and Treading the Road to Mastery
assessments on pages 13–15. Sharpening Your Skills Activity 1
focuses on getting the main idea while Activity 2 is for making
inferences. Proceed to page 15 and answer the Treading the Road
to Mastery. Tell the learners to follow the instructions.
After answering the activities, direct the learners to see the Answer
Key on pages 43–44 for the assessment of learning.
VI. Concluding Activity
End the session by reviewing key concepts and encourage the learners
to share their learning on the topics presented.
Encourage them also to share which part of the lesson they find
difficult to understand.

· Drawing Conclusions
· Expressing Insights and Ideas
III. Learning Objectives
1. Determine the meaning of unfamiliar words or expressions
(LS1CS/EN-V-PSC-JHS-10)
2. Express insight based on ideas presented
(LS1CS/EN-V-PSC-JHS-25)
3. Draw generalizations and conclusions based on material
(LS1CS/EN-V-PSC-JHS-26)
IV. Resources
· Communication Skills in English Module 5
· Bond paper, ballpen, and pencil
V. Procedures
1. Activity
Assess learners familiarity with the topic by going over the activity
in Lesson 2 – Trying This Out on page 17.
Present the discussions on the following topics under Understanding
What You Did:
· Drawing Conclusions on page 18
· Inferences and Conclusions on page 19
Emphasize that there are times that the information is not clearly
stated. Writers often tell you more than they say directly. They give
you hints or clues that help you “read between the lines.”
13. 5
Drawing Generalizations
session guide 2
Using these clues to give you a deeper understanding of your
reading is called inferring.
When you infer, you go beyond the surface details to see other
meanings that the details suggest or imply (not stated). When
the meanings of words are not stated clearly in the context of the
text, they may be implied—that is, suggested or hinted at. When
meanings are implied, you may infer them.
Infer the meaning of the unfamiliar words by choosing from the
two options. Let the learners answer the Activity on page 21 of the
module.
Present the principles in giving opinion on page 22. Continue
discussing the Useful Expressions to Voice Opinion and on
Disagreeing Politely.
Let the learners answer Let’s Practice on page 24. Complete the
statements by choosing the appropriate expressions listed.
2. Analysis
After the activity, ask the learners to answer the following
questions:
· How do you determine the meaning of unfamiliar words?
· How do you make generalizations and conclusions?
· How do you express your insights and ideas politely?
3. Abstraction
Emphasize the following key concepts:
· The meaning of a word may be implied by the general sense of
its context. When the meaning of the word is not implied by
the general sense of its context, it may be implied by examples.
When the meaning of a word is not implied by the general sense
of its context or by examples, it may be implied by an antonym
or by a contrasting thought in context.
14. 6 WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS?
session guide 2
· Drawing conclusions and generalizations is using information
that is implied or inferred to make meaning out of what is not
clearly stated. Writers give readers hints or clues that help them
read between the lines.
· If you want to give your opinion and you want to be heard, you
must follow some principles. Use polite expressions when you
voice your opinion.
Let the learners read the key concepts on Understanding What
You Did on page 25.
4. Application
Present the Sharpening Your Skills and Treading the Road to Mastery
assessments on pages 26 and 27. Require the learners to follow the
instructions of the learning tasks.
After answering the learning tasks direct the learners to see the
Answer Key on page 45 for the assessment of their learning.
VI. Concluding Activity
End the session by reviewing key concepts and encourage the learners
to share their learning on the topics presented.

2. Analysis
After the series of learning activities, ask the learners to answer the
following questions:
· What are the three common ways of organizing information?
· Why do we need to follow the steps or sequence of doing things?
· How do you differentiate cause from effect?
3. Abstraction
Emphasize to the learners the following key concepts.
· There are many ways of organizing information from viewed
materials and turning them into written form. Three of the
most common are: arranging the information chronologically
from start to finish, noting details or giving descriptions, and
establishing cause and effect relationship.
· Chronological order is a way of arranging actions, events, or
things according to the time they occurred.

1. What are ideas that are directly stated?
These are ideas directly expressed, or explicitly stated, in a
given text.
2. What are ideas that are indirectly stated?
These are ideas not clearly stated. These are also referred to
as implicitly stated ideas (ideas not explicit).
3. What is the relationship between indirectly stated ideas
and making inferences?
Making inferences involves using what you know from
indirectly stated ideas, making a guess, and coming up with
conclusions.

3. Julia is an animal lover.
4. I may be late for our appointment.
5. The person he is talking to said something very funny.
TREADING THE ROAD TO MASTERY
1. Drawing conclusions and generalizations is using information
that is implied or inferred to make meaning out of what is not
clearly stated.
2. When you infer, you go beyond the surface details to see other
meanings that the details suggest or imply (not stated).
3. Inference is just another word for conclusion. If you infer that
something has happened, you do not see, hear, feel, smell, or

taste the actual event. But from what you know, it makes sense
to think that it has happened.
4. The meaning of a word may be implied by the general sense
of its context. Writers often tell you more than they say
directly. They give you hints or clues that help you “read between
the lines.” Using these clues to give you a deeper understanding
of your reading is called inferring.

TREADING THE ROAD TO MASTERY
What are the three ways to organize information from viewed
material? Briefly describe each
· Chronological order is a way of arranging actions, events, or
things according to the time they occurred. It is demonstrated
by showing what happened first, what went on next, what came
about in the succeeding occurrences, and until what took place
last.
· In a description, you give a general definition, then provide
specific details about the topic, discussing its distinguishing
characteristics.
· Cause and effect is another common way to organize
information into writing. Paragraphs structured as cause
and effect explain reasons why something happened. It shows
the effects of something. This shows the relationship between
things, or a sequence of events, where one is the result of the
other.
