5 Learning and Teaching Activities (embedded AifL strategies) and links to theory

(Introduction / starter activity, Main Section, Plenary, any extension activities, individual pupil support?)

Main section

 Teacher will hand out the music for 500 miles to each instrument

work on the piece)
 The teacher will spend the period viewing different instruments and advising on any difficulties, playing along with them to
build confidence.
 The ending of the main activity will include a class performance of the piece to gauge progress (individual groups may be also
asked to play- improving performance skills).
 Leave 5 mins at end for packing up
Plenary
 Review success criteria
 Exit passes to gather individualised pupil feedback on progress and to identify next steps

6 Resources and climate for learning – materials / space / organisation / positive behaviour management

7 Assessment of Pupils’ Learning and Next Steps

How well did pupils achieve both in terms of identified success criteria and beyond? Were there fair opportunities to demonstrate achievement?
What was the pupils’ perspective on their achievements?

8 Evaluation of My learning and Next Steps

How are you doing? i.e. how well did you teach (facilitate pupil learning)? How do you know? What are you going to do now? Which of the SPR
standards from your PROP form have been addressed? Discussion of theoretical principles.
