    A mini film! Students will definitely give their undivided attention to this video.Your rate of speech, vocals, musicals, illustrations and sound effects were excellently executed. Students love characterization and story telling and so they will want to know more. You did an amazing job. Girls love the story telling and boys love the war!

    Thanks Ryan. When I created this narration, I ensured that I catered for the boys by using the battle to bring out the characteristics and functions of the sun and the moon especially as my teaching practice classroom has sixteen boys and only four girls. My aim is to make learning fun for all my students.

    Truly Impressive! This undoubtedly embodies your creativity. You had me hooked from the get-go until the end and I can envision students being fascinated by it. Your excellent voice inflections, great selection of sounds and graphics added panache to it.

    Good Piece! The expression and the fluency throughout this piece was very good and well articulated. This piece will definitely motivate students who do not like Science especially the Solar System to like Science.

    Well Done!!!

MODELLED WRITING This class session focused mainly on modelled writing. We learned that modelled writing is an opportunity for students to observe a proficient writer going through the process of putting ideas into a written form. In modelled writing, teachers can focus on authorial elements of writing such as sequencing and linking ideas, choosing appropriate words, etc. or secretarial elements such as employing spelling strategies, using correct punctuation etc.        We were of the understanding that the students do not offer their ideas in modelled writing. Instead, it is anticipated that they will use the strategies modelled in their own independent writing. Modelled writing can be employed as a whole class or small group strategy. The students need to be able to clearly see the text as it is constructed. Moreover, during the modelling of the piece of writing, our lecturer made her own thinking and writing processes visible for us.      ...

FOR THE LOVE OF POETRY For  years we have felt that poetry should comprise of stanzas made up of words and phrases that rhyme. However this class had given us a greater insight into the formation of poems. We established that poems are used to express ideas and feelings , as well as tell of a story. At the end of the class we were all more confident to create beautiful poetic pieces riddled with carefully formed stanzas and poetic flow. The lecturer had us  recreate a cinquain as a class and each of us were given the responsibility to draft our own haiku. But before we did this we had to find out what a cinquain was, as this was a new word in our mental word collection. This was a stanza made up of five lines. Thus we were able to formulate a short cinquain that met the approval of the class. Unaware that poem had varieties, we were introduced to 4 types of poems, which were; ballads. narrative poems, limericks and the haiku. But of interest to us was this newly...
