The 3rd person approach
Another trainee of mine used the 'mask of another identity' technique to teach the year 3 class .THE KIDS LOVED HER !! They were still giggling even when the trainee had taken off her mask.
This breath of fresh air was what the kids needed in a lesson. They really enjoyed the activities ...keep it up!!

Language Arts
A great idea ... opening up a fruit stall to teach about fruits ...and a colourful fruit stall too .
Pupils' involvement is good ... but don't burden them with too much task .. for example , the boy had to show three word strips to the class and then paste the three strips on the board ... the boy managed to hold only two in his small hands to show to the class , the teacher had tomhold the last one ...
It is better to assign a strip to a pupil . That way we can involve more pupils in activities ..making it more student centered .
Remember to plan the stages in your lesson to suit the given time and do not 'steal' time from other stages . In the photo above , we can see that even though they were standing , two pupils were still colouring their work while the whole class was singing .
