Assignment Part 1: Learning activity plan - 400 words
Develop a learning activity plan using the Assignment: Learning activity plan template, which includes the following sections:
a) A descriptive activity title
b) Age group
c) Description of a practical language or literacy activity you could use in the early childhood setting to support the child/children's oral language development in the Australian context (approx. 200 words):
o How are you going to introduce the activity?
o What are you doing during the activity to involve the child/children and support their learning?
o How are you going to conclude the activity?
d) Identify and describe relevant components of language and literacy that are the focus of your learning activity plan (approx. 100 words)
e) Resources/props which would be used for the activity (you can include images if you wish) (50 words)
f) How the plan relates to the EYLF (approx. 50 words). The descriptor for the EYLF will not be counted in the word count for this section
g) reference list (not included in the word count).
Note: in learning activity plans you do not need to include an introduction or conclusion, and you may use bullet points and images.
Assignment Part 2: Oral presentation
Record your oral presentation relating to your learning activity plan and include the following:
- An introduction to your presentation (what you will speak about i.e. your learning plan, the title and age group, etc.).
- Describe the key concepts you have selected for the learning activity plan and how they are intended to be taught and learned in your planned learning activity.
- Briefly explain your choices for the decisions made in plain language, free of jargon.
- Provide a conclusion that sums up your presentation.
Consider the needs of your audience as you plan and deliver your oral presentation. Remember that your intended audience is a child's parent, so your presentation should be pitched at that level-not overly academic, but not overly simplified.
