2. The lesson could include an activity where we get to label and give the specific function of various parts of the female reproductive system

3. The use of the 3D model was very engaging and informative and therefore give learners a visual representation of what they already know in depth

4. Yes the lesson met the lesson objectives as the learners were able to see the various parts of the female reproductive system and their functions are well explained

5. The topic is very complex however the teacher would have to make sure that learners are comfortable and it is a respectful environment where teaching sensitive topics do not hinder learning. The teacher can also not focus on the female reproductive but both male and female

Lesego Phoshoko

1. Well prepared lesson , the teacher was able to link how a circuit works like the human body which is such an interesting relation. Included visual representations of how a circuit looks and detailed differentiation of parallel and series circuits. Showed various components of a circuit which was informative

2. Have learners design their own circuit or have their way of making their own circuit using the same online tool

3. The use the ICT tool showed practical representations of what the various components look like and how we connect them

it promotes a hands on approach to how circuits are connected and the various components work to make a complete circuit

4. YES , the lesson was engaging and interesting and informed us on the various components of the circuit and their functions

5. In a classroom setting , the teacher might have to use a practical example of simple circuit which can be bought instead of using the online tool

In an under resourced school, the learners might have to make use of drawings to show how a simple circuit looks

provided that the teacher can show pictures of these various components to the learners
