Activity Two: Planning for/Developing Routines and Procedures

Plan the routines for one of your classes. The activity expects that you will teach the class. It may be a class that you teach for an
observation by your MST/MCT or just a practice class that you teach with the permission of your MST. The lesson can be
incorporated as one of your formal observations if your MST/MCT decides. In order to complete the activity you are required
(whether the lesson is one of your formal observations or not) to fill in and submit the planning sheet below.
Before you begin to complete the table talk a little bit about the class/lesson in which this plan for routines is to be used. Include:

Lesson objectives
Main activities in the lesson
Grouping of students during each main activity
Behaviour expected during each activity (e.g. sharing resources; changing stations; presenting)
Where are the transitions in the lesson? What are they: (e.g. moving from plenary to group work between main activity one
and main activity two)

After the Task - Reflection

Choose 3 best practices you observed during your time in school. Reflect on these and consider why you could implement these in a
UAE KG classroom in the future. Explain how these practices will affect student learning in a KG class.

The best practice was the morning routine, because the children get engaged for the lesson, it helps them to improve their skills such as their
language, the motor skills and the cognitive, it also, help the classroom management and it makes the children more focused.
