Individual Session Plan

Subject: ICT Year/Group: Year Date: 9.11.09

Learning Objectives: Knowledge & Understanding of the world & ICT: To use
information and communication technology and programmable toys to support their learning. To
use every words to describe position, direction and movement. I can program Bee-Bot by
making him move to correct picture. Communication Language & Literacy: Pupils learn
to read simple words by sounding out and blending the phonemes all through the word from left
to right.
Cross Curricular Link: ICT, Literacy and Numeracy
Resources: Bee-Bot, Jack and the beanstalk mat, show me cards, polish number cards (for how
many spaces forwards/backwards ), exercise books, photocopied pictures for sequencing,
scissors, glue, large space for Bee-Bot, Table for pupils... (4/5 at a time)
Differentiation/Inclusion: Teacher assistant (specialist for Lily Richardson), Polish number
card resource, Show me cards for visual aids, children can work together is this session to learn
how to give Bee-Bot instructions.
Key Questions: ICT: How can you make Bee-Bot go forwards? Vocabulary: Jack,
Make Bee-Bot go to the bag of gold... Beanstalk (doesn’t follow
How did you do it? show me... rule!), Giant, Hen, Gold,
Literacy: Can you tell me what order the pictures go in? Coins, Harp,
Numeracy: which one is this? Can you tell me another way of it
being number one, two, three?
Opportunities for Assessment: Show me cards offer me an opportunity to see if every
child is grasping the way you make Bee-Bot move. Observations of pupils can be made when
they are putting in the instructions. Use assessment chart. AFL- ask questions (probe in right
direction), observe then help when a pupil needs it. AOL- see the pictures they have ordered in
their book... 1st 2nd etc (numeracy and literacy objective.)APP??
Shared Whole Class Work:
Share the learning objective.I can program Bee-Bot by making him move to correct
picture.
Literacy: Share the text and read together. Encourage the children to parts of the text, which
contain words, which are known or can be decoded phonetically. Read words which are unknown
and/or cannot be read through children applying their existing skills.
ICT: Program Bee-Bot to follow instructions. Pupils will sit in a circle around the mat and we will
talk about Bee-Bot and how it moves.
Pupils will take it in turns to input a simple instruction using show me cards so I know they are
grasping the concept. Ask Remi to share his Polish numbers with us if he wants to. Try to use
both when asking, telling how many spaces to move. (Use actions as much as possible and
assess self in how Remi is responding.) Now using the pictures on the mat ask children to point
out the order of them (go round the circle, taking turns.)
I will then tell the pupils that we are going to make Bee-Bot travel around the mat as we tell the
story, I will input first (pressing GO after each input, them CLEAR) to get Bee-Bot to first picture.
Pupils will then take it in turns to input the instructions to finish story. (Using show me cards
first.)
Guided/Independent Work: Five at a time (while other group chooses.)
Order pictures from the story. Literacy: Pupils will recount the story ‘Jack and the Beanstalk’
while cutting and sticking the pictures in the correct order. Numeracy: Pupils will also use
correct mathematical terms (1st 2nd 3rd) using the show me cards created.
Plenary: Get back together in a circle and ask pupils how they feel they have achieved
with the objectives shared at the start. Ask each pupil to demonstrate a given instruction
of Bee-Bot.
