Focus for support with reference to NC prog of study.
[ link to NC prog of study and also maybe keeping them on task, motivated, fun, 'play like'.. build on proir learning....]
refer to the NC handbook and look at the relevant programme of study, link each activity to 2 or 3 targets.
Get a copy of the foundation stage and KS 1 and 2 NC Handbook or try www.nc.uk.net .
As for putting it into the text of your assignment you could it like this:
The points the activity relates to regarding the NC are as follows:
Group discussion and interaction 10a and 10b (pag 52) , as the children are working in pairs to plan and write their stories.
En2 Reading ? Literature 4b and 4c (page 53) as the children are looking at a specific genre and creating their own characters and plots.
En3 Writing is the main area of National Curriculum programme of study appropriate to the literacy, language and ICT activity as the children are writing their own stories.
I have Done it this way for literacy: [after saying what the activity is]Children will be introduced to the following learning strands of the new primary literacy strategy: 1,2,3 and 4 for key stage 1, which also links directly to the National Curriculum[see appendix......]
Hope this helps
Below some tma 6 notes...
Having now read all of the course materials I still find it hard to guide you as to which might be the most relevant aspects for this assignment as it is really dependent on your choice of activities.
The key to success I suppose is picking two activities that you are comfortable with ? particularly with regard the integration of ICT. For this assignment you must think of ICT in its broadest sense ? yes the use of computers is important, but how has it enhanced this particular activity?
You are asked to select two activities from either language and literacy, mathematics or science. It would be helpful if you selected two activities that you are familiar with in the context of supporting three ? six children who you are familiar with.
Part 1 asks you to identify the group of children you have supported and identify their needs IN THE CHOSEN CURRICULUM AREA.
As you have to do this for each of the two activities, this suggests that you could pick different children for each activity if you would like to.
Part 2
This asks you to identify a focus for support for each activity appropriate to the learning needs of the children, e.g. developing the use of creative language or developing the use of prediction skills in science. For each activity you are asked to reference to the relevant National Curriculum programme of study. Some analysis with reference to course materials would also be helpful. Again, dependant on the areas selected, there is a range of supporting material available in the Study Guide and supporting Reader chapters.
Part 3
This asks you to produce a plan for each activity. As there are three clear headings, I would go for about 100 words for each one. When it asks about the support you will provide, please remember materials and the set up of the learning environment along with the sorts of questions you might ask.
Part 4 is specifically about how ICT has been included. There is mention of the range of ICT that could be identified in the assignment guide. Please refer to Course materials ? again they have given you a huge range of ideas to help. You must analyse how the children will be able to use ICT. You might like to think how the use of ICT has enhanced this activity.
You are all likely to select different curriculum areas along with a range of activities. Should you want to discuss the selection of activities with me, please don?t hesitate to get in touch.
