of fun and positivity
 Organizing / gaining attention, demonstration, clarity Keep students organised on one or neighbouring rinks
 Confidence & ‘knowing’ the material to make gaining attention more simple

Positioning (during activity) Demonstrate key technical cues and instructions of


activities using verbal and non-verbal communication
 Management & observation strategies (multiple times when necessary)

Provision of feedback Construct feedback loops to enhance skilled


performance
 Individual & group mix, acknowledgement

 Follow up & differentiated other external sources
Acknowledge and praise all students for efforts made in
Personalised – differentiation evident in session learning episodes
Implement varied scoring and success strategies to
engage all students and aid in differentiation

Questioning & Responding


Use probing questions to promote higher order thinking
1. Types of questions and more in-depth responses
 Probing/clarifying, open/closed, funnel
Implement methods such as think/pair/share to include
all students in responses to questions
2. Method of answering question
Provide sufficient time to for students to respond to the
 Pairs, small group, full group etc.
question and rephrase question to clear up uncertainty
Acknowledge student answers with positivity and build
3. Time for response
on why it was a good answer, ‘that was a good answer
 How will you build in thinking time? Allocate ‘time to because..’
think’, ‘quick response’ etc. Use student responses to build on key learnings using
the teaching moment
4. Acknowledging answers

 ‘Great thought’, ‘I like it’ etc.

1. Responding to answers
 Clarifying, paraphrasing and extending using probing
to extend thinking.

Inclusivity when questioning & observing who responds to


questions Be aware of who responds to questions and use names
to bring the less-involved students into the discussion
 Aware of who is answering questions and strategies to
include others. This is a part of reflexive practice. Rotate the role of sharing responses to questions to the
group after think/pair/share etc

Pacing, Flexibility & Reflexivity Be reflexive with time if students are enjoying a
particular activity and let them construct their own
 Time management, adaptability & using the teaching variations
moment.
Use freeze replay to teach within the moment to
highlight key tactical or technical aspects

2. Debrief Plan
Each student will have a focus area to observe throughout the session to provide specific feedback
in relation to that focus area. The following frontloading questions for the debrief will be given out
on cards:
Student 1 – Progressions
Provide feedback on the progression of learning activities. Were they arranged well and what
could be done to improve the flow of learning episodes?
Student 2 - Engagement
Comment on the overall ‘engagement factor’ of the learning episodes. Were they success-
orientated and did they challenge / differentiate sufficiently for varied learner abilities?
Student 3 – Types of questions that were used
Provide feedback on the types of questions used (closed, open, probing and clarifying). Were
different types of questions used at the right moments? What improvements could be made here?
Student 4 – Responding to questions
Provide feedback on response to questions. Was enough time given to respond in relation to the
complexity of the question? Were responses used and built upon? Were responses positively
acknowledged and linked to other comments that had been made? Were all students given a
chance to contribute?

The debrief will involve conversations about the above questions. The ‘expert’ student will lead
the discussion for their particular focus and then allow other students to provide comment. All
students will then fill out a short feedback survey (anonymously). This can be seen in Appendix 1.

Closure:
Now we’ve got all the important stuff out of the way, let’s roll into our first activities! Remember to be continually thinking about how lawn bowls would be beneficial for the cameo
role you are acting out as we will be discussing it very shortly!
Pedagogical Analysis:

Methods
 Set induction using invitational video
 Discussion – think/pair/share

Style / Pedagogical Approach


 Command style used when conducting safety briefing and if any key information is left out in the peer discussions.
 Reciprocal style used when getting students to think/pair/share safety and etiquette aspects of lawn bowls. This method is more engaging and students are able to deepen
their understandings by using and analysing ideas from peers. They will be able to recall information provided in the video.
 The pedagogical approach used is dialogic pedagogy due to the discussions between teacher and students in thinking about rules, safe behaviours and how to implement the
cameo role into the session.

Questioning
 A mixture of open, closed and probing questions will be used to gauge prior knowledge and to allow students to critically think of responses.
 Clarifying questions will be used to ensure students understand the key messages being delivered.
 ‘Funnelling’ can be used to guide students towards the intended responses.
 Probing questions will be used in responses to other questions to build on knowledge and acknowledging all students’ responses with enthusiasm (to make them feel positive
after offering a response) will be crucial.
 A ‘no opt-out’ strategy will be used in these discussions as it is important information that all students need to understand so all students will be given a chance to respond.

Engagement
 ICT – viewing an invitational video with key information and humour to highlight positive and fun attitudes towards lawn bowls.
 Think / Pair / Share – peers get to cooperate, create and share ideas.
 Cameo – students are introduced to their cameo role which will require them to think creatively and critically throughout the session.

Closure:
It has been great to see in such a short amount of time that your technique and tactical thoughts have improved so much! What are some key cues in terms of technical ability we can
take away with us into the final part of our session? Do we have some key tactical plans we might implement or consider in more game play? Be sure to keep participating as your
cameo and provide more information as we go along…

Pedagogical Analysis:

Methods
 Demonstrations to allow for clear visual aid of technical cues and task instructions.
 Shaped games to guide practice on specific areas of technical and tactical play.
 Target games to promote more aligned practice to the game of lawn bowls.
 Challenges to test students with differentiation for all to experience success.
 Peer feedback opportunities.
 Role play to encourage conversations from different perspectives.

Style / Pedagogical Approach


 Practice (task) style when teacher provides demonstrations on technical ability and opportunities for student to put this into practice.
 Guided discovery style used to limit instruction time and students can explore and find out through play practice the keys of successful bowling in relation to technical ability,
tactics / game sense, weight and use of bias
 Reciprocal style used when peers are working together and providing feedback on different aspects of skilled performance.
 Inclusion style is used to promote success for all student by differentiating learning tasks and implementing different challenges.
 Divergent production style when challenged to create strategies to attract a younger demographic into lawn bowls clubs.
 Self-check style is implemented through analysing feedback on ICT in relation to technical ability and by various feedback sources that are built into the game of lawn bowls
(where the bowl lands etc. and using this feedback to correct the next shot).
 The pedagogical approach used is pedagogical content knowledge due to the teacher being informed on how to best structure and deliver key content to facilitate success and
learning for students throughout a critical phase in the session.
 Dialogic pedagogy is also prevalent due to numerous discussions and opportunities for interactions with student through instructions, delivery of feedback etc.
Questioning
 Students will be able to answer questions posed by the game of lawn bowls through active participation.
 A mixture of open, probing and clarifying questions will be used highlight key factors of the game including weight and bias and how to use feedback sources to improve skilled
performance.
 The scenarios provide good opportunities for probing questions to be used in relation to tactics and how students can best overcome the challenges posed.
 Clarifying questions will be used to ensure students understand what is required for each learning episode to help them achieve the specific student outcomes.
 The health focus throughout this learning episode provides an idea teaching moment to ask probing questions surrounding the link between participating in lawn bowls and
the social benefits associated.
 Sufficient time needs to be given to students to respond to the more complex discussion in relation to the health benefits of participation – using perspectives from the cameo
roles will provide opportunities to build on responses given

Engagement
 Differentiation strategies to increase success allowing for varying levels of ability to feel they are achieving throughout the session.
 Use of ICT and analysis of self – students get the chance to review themselves in action and feel more motivated to improve.
 Peer interaction through multiple partner activities.
 Use of time to continually challenge and enhance the progressions of each learning episodes which leads to variety of activities.
 Action fantasy cards to simulate game-like scenarios.
 Use of positive acknowledgement and specific feedback to ensure all students feel included and are valued.
 Novelty and competition to enhance the play and spark further interest of students.

Closure:
Well done everybody! It was great to see you all put your improved technical and tactical ability into gameplay and thank you for participating our tournament! Let’s head inside to
finish off a great session.
Pedagogical Analysis:

Methods
 Competition to bring all key learnings together and apply in modified games and challenge new people.
 Role play to encourage unique conservations from various perspectives while competing.

Style / Pedagogical Approach


 Guided discovery style used as there is limited instructions and students are able to discover the types of shots required to succeed within the context of playing the game and
communicating with and challenging peers.
 Self-teaching style is used when students bring together all key learnings and participate in the cumulating tournament as they will be self-umpiring / scoring (demonstrating
fair play) and rotating on their own accord. Students can also further enhance their performance by learning from external sources of feedback throughout the games.
 The pedagogical approach used is collaborative pedagogy due to the passing of more control of learning on to the students, working collaboratively to ensure the tournament
runs to expectations.

Questioning
 Closed questions will be used to highlight key rules needed for game play and how to score – these can be answered quickly and need to be reiterated by the teacher to
minimise confusion, allow for smooth running of games and getting the students out playing as soon as possible.
 Clarifying questions will be used to enhance skilled performance by asking in context to tactical ideas while playing to fast-track development.
 Ensure all students have a chance to respond to closed questions surrounding rules and etiquette to facilitate deeper understanding.
 Give appropriate response times to clarifying questions and give key points and ask for key points to ensure understandings are clear.

Engagement
 Competition by using the tournament to bring all key learnings together and playing against new opponents.
 Fun and interaction with multiple pairs to challenge.
 Use of technology (Bowlometer app) to assist with measuring close bowls and/or scoring.
 Playing music in the background to add to the fun and positive atmosphere.
 Ownership of the learning episode and more responsibility.

Closure:
Thank you all for being an awesome group and I really hope you can take some key ideas home about the benefits of participating in lawn bowls. Be sure to have a go at a club near you
and will look forward to seeing you all out on a green in the future!
Pedagogical Analysis:

Methods
 Small group discussion to raise key ideas learned on health benefits.
 Role play to contribute to discussion using perspectives from the cameo character.
 Gallery walk to learn from other perspectives.

Style / Pedagogical Approach


 Divergent production style is used when the question is posed to the group relating to health benefits from participating in lawn bowls – students will offer multiple responses
to a common idea from the perspective of their cameo roles.
 Self-teaching style is used when students participate in the gallery walk to enhance their own learning by reading perspectives on the same topic from other people, then
bringing this information back to the original group to elaborate on in further discussion.
 The pedagogical approach used is dialogic pedagogy – this learning episode is based on participation in substantive communication through purposeful discussion on the topic
matter.

Questioning
 Probing questions will be a feature of this learning episode as it relies on drawing out information from students from the perspective of their cameo roles, using this
information to contribute to discussion and be built on to deepen understandings.
 Response times will need to be varied due to the varying complexities of the probing questions that can be asked which also rely on student responses.
 Clarifying questions will be used to reiterate key learnings from the session to ensure all student take valuable information away for use in the future.

Engagement
 Peer interactions in group discussion.
 Connection to individual lives making the learning episodes relevant and interesting.
 Cameo roles used to add different perspectives to the discussion.
