Observation Task 10: Integrated subject areas

Focus: Integration
Procedure:
1. Ask your MST which e.g. math’s and/or science concepts the children are learning
at the moment.
2. Find out how she helps them to understand these ideas.
• By knowing their levels.
• By questioning them.
• If the teacher used a hard language, she explains it with a simple language, then.
• Trying to let all the students take part in the class.
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.
It is because they need to know the language to understand and take part in the
class.
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:

Reflection
 What maths or science concept the learners are studying e.g. numbers, addition,
measurement?

The lesson was about math, and they were studying numbers.

 Did the students seem to enjoy the lesson? Why or why not?

The students enjoyed the class because they can walk around the class, and choose
whatever activity they want to do.

 Were students using the new math or science language in English? In Arabic?

Most of the students were using English to count the numbers. But for those who
have difficulty in English, they count in Arabic.
