Answer 4

I did a great micro-teaching session on alcohol units. How to calculate and guessing the unit content of (empty) bottles of alcohol. Also put some Vimto in a red wine bottle and apple cordial into a white wine bottle and gave participants big wine glasses. They had to guess how much was one unit. Then they had measuring jugs to check out how right they were.

It's very topical at the moment too - what with all of the Christmas parties coming up.

I ordered free unit calculators from the Portman Group as well - it went down a treat.

20 mins on any activity is a long time for reception children. You need to keep them on the move, A treasure hunt is good, each child has a buddy and they are given a picture of an object --say a cat they also have a list of pictures and around the room there will be pictures relating to a cat, a mouse, milk, collar etc they have to remember what they have seen and tick off what they find. Give them 5-10 mins to find their objects. Plenary is 10 mins discussing how many they found and why the objects relate to each other, Mayhem whilst they are looking but they are all involved.

I teach IT but for one micro-teaching sessions I taught making gift boxes without glue, old Christmas/greeting cards are great for this - it also brings a discussion element into the session (involve the learners) as well as cognitive thinking - what other materials could you use? From a selection of materials which works best? What if you changed the size or general design? Practical skills - you could suggest decorating plain card from which to make the boxes when they try it at home (self learning, practice); or try adding decorations, name tags. And so it goes on...

I also did measuring a tree (team work, writing, getting outside! and comparing results, naming tree species, so many opportunities...).

I've also seen 'knot tying' by a guy working at the local army base. I enjoyed that.

Re-potting a plant was another.

How to forecast the weather (be very sure of yourself for something like that!).

Sewing on a button. (Health & Safety issues are brought to the fore with this, but don't forget them with anything you decide to do).

Napkin/paper folding.

Cleaning jewellery or brass/silver work (get them to do it for you this month!).

Interviewing techniques.

Tying shoelaces. (Sounds daft but there are different ways to do it and the subject doesn't have to be one the group don't know how to do anyway).

Don't choose a topic that requires a lot of resources (the fewer the better) or heavy items or a lot of clearing up afterwards!

My advise: Stick to something you know about (the subject is not important, the way you put it across is!). Keep it simple and do-able; engage the learners; keep handouts clear and concise; ask questions: 'Have I explained it clearly?' (not 'Do you understand?'); 'Did everyone see how I did that?'; 'Would you like me to go over those steps again?' Make sure that everyone can see what you are doing; encourage them to move nearer. Keep asking for their thoughts and ideas; body language is very important - look at everyone but don't ask direct questions (to one individual at a time) unless you know they are comfortable with that; you could ask for a volunteer to help you or read out the instructions as you do each step (good if it's a bit messy or you need both hands and need to refer to the handout), it also helps the learners who struggle with reading. Ensure all members of the group are involved (no matter how little they want to give). Mention each by name if you can.

Lastly, if it goes wrong, don't worry. Your reaction to this is a good indicator as to your teaching skills - learners are human just like teachers and will learn from mistakes (whether yours or theirs!).

I'm sure you'll do fine. Good luck.

Hi,
There are numerous documented benefits and advantages of teaching children to read early on, and teaching them to reading using phonics and phonemic awareness instructions. It is clear that early language and reading ability development passes great benefits to the child as they progress through school at all grades, and that early language and reading problems can lead to learning problems later on in school.
