Observation Task 10: Integrated subject areas

Focus: Integration
Procedure:

1. Ask your MST which e.g. maths and/or science concepts the children are learning at the
moment.
2. Find out how she helps them to understand these ideas.
3. Ask about how language is part of this learning. Record the activities and language used
for the math and science concepts on the table below.
4. Get a sample of any documentation of the science or maths curriculum you can add this
to your TP portfolio (ADEC Lesson Plan, teacher’s lesson plan, etc.)
5. Observe a math or science lesson and notice student participation (for reflection).

For example:
Concept Activity Language

4 learners sorting and 4 four

counting beads

addition learners adding numbers plus equals

7 7,seven

Reflection

 What maths or science concept the learners are studying e.g. numbers, addition,
measurement? Shapes numbers..
 Did the students seem to enjoy the lesson? Why or why not? I think no because there
was no organization and no interesting activities.
 Were students using the new math or science language in English? In Arabic?

In English classes.
