Background

This POE is based on the following fictional scenario.

Upon the completion of your Bachelor of Education in Intermediate Phase qualification, you
managed to secure a position at Thornhill Primary School which is a school located in a rural area
just outside the city where you live. You are appointed as a locum teacher to teach English and Social
Science for 6 months to fill in for a teacher who is on study leave.

Your mentor teacher at the school is Mrs Sharon Hunter who has been teaching at the school for 22
years. As such, she is very knowledgeable about the learners and school context, and traditional
teaching methods. She attended CAPS training workshops and follows the document based on her
understanding of it. Sharon teaches Grade 6 and Grade 7 English Home Language. Most of the
learners are not mother tongue English speakers but the school’s Language in Education Policy
stipulates that English is offered at HL level and is also the medium of instruction. There are learners
in both classes who experience academic challenges and there are some who cannot read or write
at the required level.

A few weeks into the term working alongside Sharon, she realised that your qualification placed you
in an advantageous position in terms of implementing current teaching methods and application of
the CAPS.

Sharon is keen to improve her teaching, so she asked you to observe her Grade 6 lessons and provide
feedback, assist her with planning for her English lessons as per the CAPS, and help her design
assessments and improve her marking.

Introduction
For all tasks included in this POE, you are encouraged to think creatively and critically and apply
methods, principles, approaches, and theories that you engaged with during your qualification.
You will be expected to demonstrate a clear understanding of the approaches prescribed by the
CAPS. These include the communicative language teaching approach, the text-based approach,
and the process approaches to listening, reading, and writing.

You will be required to complete ICE tasks in pairs or small groups of three. You will be placed in
groups at the start of the semester and will be required to engage with your group members to
complete ICE tasks in the same group. You are encouraged to bear in mind all that you have learnt
about group work and reflect on your experience working in a group. Also, think about how you
will use this experience to inform your own classroom practice.

In pairs/groups of three:

ICE task 1 (Marks: 20)


Based on LU1
1. Summarise the process approaches to listening, reading, and writing. Consider the underlying
principles of the approaches as well as their pros and cons in the SA language classroom. You
are encouraged to use a table or visually represent your summaries.

ICE task 2 (Marks: 20)


Based on LU2
2. Choose an instructional text based that could be used for a listening and speaking lesson.
Explain why the text is suitable and describe how you will use the text to develop your
learners’ listening and speaking skills.

ICE task 3 (Marks: 20)


Based on LU2
3. Work with your peer/s from ICE 01. Choose another instructional text that will be suitable for
a Reading and Viewing lesson. Design a worksheet that you can use to check your learners’
understanding of the text. Remember to integrate language and vocabulary. Your worksheet
should have about 15 questions. Pay attention to scaffolding and include a range of
questions. Also, include a marking memorandum.

ICE task 4 (Marks: 20)


Based on LU5
4. While on your Teaching Experience, collect some examples to show how you mark and
provide feedback to your learners for a writing (essay, letter, etc.) activity. Choose a range of
learners’ submissions (good, average, poor, language ability, etc.). Work with your peer/s and
discuss how you could improve your marking and feedback. Reflect on your discussion with
your peer and write between 2-3 paragraphs describing how you will use your peer’s
feedback when marking your learners’ written submissions. Attach the activity and
submissions that you discussed with your peer/s to your reflection when submitting to your
lecturer for feedback.

Part 3 - Writing and Presenting (Marks: 30)


For her Writing and Presenting lesson, Sharon wants her learners to write a descriptive text to
demonstrate their understanding of sequencing learnt from the instructional texts.

These are her LOs:

1. Design a rubric that Sharon can use to assess her learners’ written submissions. (10)
2. Test your rubric using the following three learner submissions. You must clearly
demonstrate your marking and feedback technique by correcting the relevant language
errors and providing useful, meaningful feedback. (15)
