Queen of Grammar
I love these short videos as it is easy to understand  and relates well to our local people. This is quite close to the Speak Good English campaign back then. Grammar is important and I have always reiterate this during my English lessons. Explaining Singlish, British and American English is something I have to do every year to every new batch of students.

How to Learn English with Movies
I actually do watch them with subtitles because I cannot understand at times when there were too much scenes going on at one time. Movies are a great way to do Reader's Theatre and promote reading fluency.

74 Shmoop Videos
I can see myself using these videos for use at withdrawal sessions. It is on point and easy for me to also explain the grammar rules. These videos can also capture those visual learners well.

Using videos is especially helpful for SEN students because they improve both listening and observational skills. It can reduce feelings of anxiety and inferiority by boosting their self-esteem. Videos are also a good medium to stimulate active discussion and motivate students to engage in the topic that interests them. Learning English through films provides students with the opportunity to hear how the native language is naturally spoken, and it can be a reference point for students to imitate the way they speak. Dialogue in films also provides good examples of how the sound of words changes in connected texts. It is also a good way to consolidate what has been learned and to remember the context in which words are used.

Movies provide a platform to teach students about different facets and aspects of English language usage. They can be used as a medium to introduce unfamiliar concepts, worlds and people beyond the scope of texts and writing.

I believe that the incorporation of IT and media into lessons is beneficial and super efficient in this new age. It caters to a wider range of learning styles. It's an engaging medium that can foster better internalisation of the content taught.

The Queen of Grammar videos do provide interesting aspects of learning grammar. The links made in the videos are something the students can relate to.

Overall, the use of movies/short videos/films can greatly help deliver a message to the class as it is through a medium that interests them.

The Queen of Grammar videos were very entertaining, funny and interesting, i had a good laugh watching them. I believe students will be very engaged to see these videos as well. They do also help to stress the use and importance of good grammar in helping people to understand and communicate effectively. I believe I can use some of these videos as a starter to help students realize the importance of good grammar.

The Shmoop Videos were also quite interesting and used a lot of effects and animations, these should help to catch the attention of the IT savvy students in current day context. However the animation does become a little annoying after a while and I believe it should be used sparingly.

Learning From Videos with lesson plans should be easier to implement, there are a variety of sources, pictures and lesson plans which teach exactly what to do. I can use some of these to adapt and incorporate into my own lessons.

The movies work for students with special needs shows me that students do learn better with more experience learning like watching a movie, so videos which can actually bring a student into the context of the film can help a student with special need understand a particular topic better. I often use portions of movies and videos to help drive a point I need to make to students with special needs home. They will make better recall and remain in their memory longer lasting.

Learning English Through Movies,
Some of the movies mentioned are my favorite, but some are quite old and students might find them boring. May I suggest to update some of the titles to include some newer titles which can effective draw students attention.

Learning English through Movies

I could use the movie trailer to introduce my lesson. Movies are a great resource to engage our SEN students as most of them enjoy watching Youtube videos in their free time. Based on my student learning profile and interest, I can choose the appropriate storyline and level of difficulty to learn English. This will make the learning task fun and interesting than reading the textbook. While watching the movie, our students are exposed to new vocabulary or grammar, and how to use and pronoun the words in the story. Using the subtitles in the movie will help our students recognize and remember words better.

Learning from Videos (For teachers with lesson plans)

I like the teacher’s lesson plan because the instructions are easy to understand and follow. The lesson plan uses pictures and videos to engage the students. Lesson plans are flexible and can be used in the classroom setting or via online platform. I can use the lesson plans as reference to improve my instructional skills.

Queen of Grammar is an interesting and funny short series emphasising on speaking good English. Each series teaches a different context of the English language. As it is short and to the point, its will be a good resource to use with our students during pull out session. Using videos with humour will not only entertain but engaging students as well.

Movies helps in improving students’ comprehension skills by enabling them to listen to the conversations and watch the visual supports presented simultaneously. These visual cues support verbal message and provide a focus of attention. Students can also learn new vocabulary, pronunciation, context and conversation. However all this depends on the selection of the movies as not all movies will be beneficial for learning good English.

Good movies with a varied genre should be used to expose our students to different aspects of life. This will help to build their language proficiency as well as general knowledge.
I would definitely use videos in the future as my students can be better engaged using visuals instead of the traditional paper and pen.

The videos uploaded in E-Learning 4(Queen of Grammar) were very engaging and tells us through the use of humor why learning English is important. The videos also highlighted common English mistakes we as Singaporeans make these days. This series can be used as a resource for both primary and secondary school students. As AED(LBS) if the student we are working with seems not so confident about their language, we can start using Queen of Grammar to build rapport with the student. Then move on to bigger tasks.

These are some of the benefits of using videos in our sessions:

· The use of videos in lessons ensures that their sight and listening skills improve.

· The use of videos in lessons also motivates students to pursue subjects of interest they wish to learn about (watching a variety of movies).

·  When compared to print materials alone, videos provide a more compelling sensory experience as they provide a reliable resource that can be accessed from any location with an internet connection.

·  Videos also help us in knowledge retention as they can be stopped and replayed as many times.

·  Videos are the best to use for students who learn using visual aids or examples given.

·  Not only special needs students will benefit from using videos but other normal students will also learn something.

I will definitely use videos in the future as it engages my students and using them I will be able to make better rapport with them. Students tend to learn better with the use of speech and visual.

Watching videos to learn language is an engaging and sensory experience for everybody including myself. When we use visual and audio sensory at the same time, we are processing the content in our brain. I personally agree that watching video is beneficial to learning a language. I grew up learning my mother tongue language through watching Chinese TV shows. It proves effective for me.

Video modelling is an evidence-based strategy. Students can learn skills from video. Therefore, I think watching videos of different content is also beneficial for students. It can be played repeatedly, anytime at your own pace.

Students with learning disabilities tend to be more engaged when watching video rather than having the teacher explaining with text. The image and audio in a video require lesser processing skills for students with special needs. There is lesser text and visual help in their learning. It is easier to understand, and they learn in a more relaxed mode.

The Queen of Grammar is very entertaining and catchy. It’s so funny and engaging. I think it applies to our students too. In order not to have too much screen time for our students, the duration of the video is also very important. A short video will have the optimal effect as children’s concentration span is short.

Shmoop short videos are very useful. Students can learn the correct uses of some English words and punctuation as well. I will definitely keep them as resources for future uses. It can be uses as introduction for some lesson.

Though videos are good resources, teachers must look through the video and decide the age appropriateness and difficulty level. Some videos may be good, but the English language may not be suitable for different ages. Teachers can use videos to teach different subjects and content.

The videos provided were wide in variety and helpful overall. I enjoyed watching The Queen of grammar video as it was entertaining yet educational. I feel that such modes of learning truly captures the essence of incidental learning that is rooted in fun and curiousness. From personal experience, students in primary schools tend to be more focused and engaged with short videos or clips that their teachers show during class. Videos like this also help students to make the link between the theory on paper and how to accurately apply said theory in real life. Due to the interactive and engaging nature of such videos, young students may be further motivated to imitate what they see and put the theories into practice more often. These videos were just the right length to introduce or summarize certain aspects of grammar to students.

I can definitely see myself using videos to assist me in the 'I do' portion of withdrawal sessions as well as playing a summative video at the end of lesson to quickly recap all the theories covered.

# data[].attributes.body
All of the videos were enriching and were a great insight on how we can engage pupils in various learning strategies and teach proper usage of English. I especially enjoyed The Queen of Grammar videos as they explained on the importance of grammar such as nouns, countable and uncountable nouns and many more. Another aspect that caught my attention was including movies in our lessons. Through movies we can introduce students to concepts that they may not have heard of or seen out of lessons such as using musicals to expose them to historical events. Before I show the movies, I must also keep in mind the portions that I want to show, the relevancy and at which points do I want to pause and incorporate my discussions. Movies will be a great way to motivate students and also encourage discussions.

List of Shmoop Videos
I find this list very useful for me to teach literacy in my withdrawal sessions. I find the videos very entertaining, short and impactful. SEN students will find them engaging and would look forward to watch the series of videos whenever they are in my withdrawal sessions.

I may also use these videos as a starter for my sessions. I believe that when engaging students with videos, they will ease into lessons quite easily. As videos captivate students visually and activate their auditory senses, it will definitely make learning of English more enjoyable and exciting.

Suggested lesson plans from All at C
are indeed useful to be lesson starters as well. I will use it to let students watch whenever I teach skills that are related to the topic in each video. I also have plans to use these videos to let dysregulated students wind down and find equilibrium as they have useful content as compared to just any cartoon videos.

# data[].attributes.body
Videos have visual and auditory components that enable the students to understand more about the concept being taught. It also makes language learning more fun and enjoyable for students. This will  help students to develop their listening, speaking, reading and writing skills. I will use some the videos as reading resources for my struggling readers. By reading the subtitles as they play on the screen, it will help student to listen and see facial expressions and gestures simultaneously. At the same time students will learn to pronounce some o the words correctly. Watching videos with subtitles help increase student reading speed, listening comprehension skill and improves grammar and words recognition for students.
I will also use videos to teach grammar concept and it enable students to see and hear the concept being taught. The “Queen of Grammar” videos also provide examples and non-examples of the concept which will help student with correct written expressions. Lastly student can review the videos on their own after the lesson was taught and help with knowledge retention.

# data[].attributes.body
In my experience, students in primary schools are particularly captivated by short videos or clips that their teachers show during class. Now that I am a student, I find the videos that have been shared for this E-learning to be engaging and entertaining. Using videos in teaching certain concepts such as grammar, 'The Queen of Grammar' demonstrates humour and promotes learning. Throughout each episode, different grammar skills are taught, ranging from the use of correct tenses, to pronunciation, to uncountable and countable nouns, to plural and singular adjectives. In addition, the videos were just the right length to introduce or summarise certain aspects of grammar to students. Using such videos in the classroom is the most effective way to incorporate humour.

There are also ways to learn English by watching movies, but this might not be practical due to the limited time we have in our lesson. Rather than showing the entire film to the students, we could show them clips from the movie and encourage them to answer questions about what they believe will happen next. I believe that using movies when teaching writing can be beneficial because students will be able to observe the movie's flow and compare it with the flow in texts. In addition, there are similar aspects in films and writing, such as plots, characters, and settings.

In general, the use of short clips and movies can enhance the learning process of students. However, we must always keep in mind that the clips we choose should be appropriate for the age and content of our students.

Power Lah Kumar! Oppps for the Singlish.

Queen of Grammar was entertaining and funny but yet focus on how to speak good English. I watched the video continuously without getting bored.

Educators are encouraged to offer a variety mode of delivery. The use of video is one of them. It not only catered to students with visual spatial intelligence, but also for other students as well. However, educators should be more careful when choosing a video. Yes, this grammar queen is fun and entertaining. But showing Kumar a
transgender to primary and secondary school student can give other signals to students' social life. But overall, the Queen of Drama really identify the mistakes that we ourselves commonly used in our daily communication.

When I was in primary and secondary school, I hated English, the most among all subjects. During English we either write, write or write. With too many rules and suddenly we qualified to became magicians with Magic e rule or suddenly we change to a silent person with Silent E rule. This make me even more confused.
So these Shmoop videos will be my videos collection to use for teaching students with language or learning disabilities. This is because I don't want them to fall like me.
Not only that, short video clips allows for more efficient processing and memory recall. This helps especially for student with learning disabilities.

The key takeaways for this E-learning is that how I can use videos effectively during my teaching with student with special needs. It is because videos create a more engaging sensory experience than using print materials alone.

# data[].attributes.body
Among all the videos, I enjoyed watching the Queen of Grammar. Mainly because I can so relate it to myself. I am guilty as charged when I watched the second episode of Queen of Grammar. Simply because at times, I do speak in broken English when I am with my friends. However, when I am with my children, I tend to be more mindful of what I say as I do not want my children to pick up broken English. Same goes when I speak to my students.

Showing of videos and movies are a great way to attract the students' attention. In addition, it will be a source or act as a bridge for the students with SEN to talk about it with the rest of their peers. However, I do need to consider which part of the video or movie should I show to the students that are beneficial and meet the lesson's objective.

Choosing the right type of movie or show also plays a part. If it is too difficult for the students with SEN to understand, they will lose their interest and will not pay attention for the rest of the withdrawal session. What more to remember what was the movie or show about. Thus, make the whole experience a memorable one where the students will remember and able to recall what was being shown from the movie or show. This can be done by finding a movie or show that fits to their preference, for example they prefer comedy or adventure genre.

I have this habit of watching films or shows with English subtitles. Simply because I am able to hear the right pronunciation as I read the words. At the same time, emulate the way they speak. Therefore, I would encourage my students to do the same thing when they watch a show or movie.

This mode of learning language and literacy through videos and movies is indeed entertaining and captures the audience’s attention effectively and that includes me. I thoroughly enjoyed watching Queen of drama with its dramatic performance and humor and yet learn good English at the same time. The introduction leading to the “meet the people session” is also filmed in such a way that arouses curiosity in the viewers.

The Shmoop videos are smartly produced with entertaining visuals which connect learning with real-life examples in its animation. It also captures the audience's attention with some sense of humor in the expressions of people and the different scenarios.

Learning from videos (for teachers with lesson plans) has an element of innovation in the way the lessons are conducted. The step-by-step explicit teaching instructions and the choice of videos relating to a specific topic are great ways to transfer knowledge to the students and make it impressionable for them as they make relations to the video.

Learning English through movies gives live context to the words used, allows the students to experience different settings through visuals, and can also help them reflect and discuss the plot amongst themselves. Furthermore, with subtitles, viewers are able to read the words and relate the context as they watch the movie.

I often believed that screen-time should be minimized for children as they can’t learn much academically from watching videos or movies but this E-learning module has given me a mindset shift that if we select the content diligently, students can benefit from this mode of learning. It boils down to the effort in scanning through suitable videos/movies that can capture the attention of our students especially our SEN students who may have a specific preference.

The ideas shared in this e-learning have taught me the effective use of videos and movies to learn language and literacy. Having experienced it now,  I'm motivated to include this mode of learning, with careful selection of content into future intervention plans that will suit the students.

How will I use the ideas given in E-Learning 4?

There is a wide array of teaching ideas that i garnered from E-Learning 4.

The Queen of Grammar videos provide  interesting and humourous aspects of learning Grammar; linking the idea of the Queen's English as British English that we learn in school. I will use the lesson teaching countable and uncountable nouns to teach my students with SEN; stopping at each part to gather the students' understanding of the grammar item as a tuning-in to the lesson.

The article by Coencas provides insightful content about using movies and discussions for my students with SEN to understand the content and participate in discussions. For instance, I will consider the part of the film to show the students, or to replay it and even use the subtitles with the motion pictures to invoke their multiple senses for appreciation and effective learning of language.

The video lesson plans for teachers provide a repertoire of videos with useful plans and worksheets that i will adapt for my students with SEN. For instance, I will show the video of Up; and encouraged students with dyslexia to be engaged in the story and remember the sequence of the story. Thereafter, i will discuss its sequence with the students to build their visual memories. It could also be used as a lesson of the cycle of life in appreciating their parents.

The Shmoop Videos on Grammar provide an excellent resource bank that I will use to explain commonly used grammar mistakes to my students with SEN. For instance, the lesson 'I' and 'me' provides a good explanation for them to realise and learn the subject and object forms of using personal pronoun 'I' and 'me' respectively.

# data[].attributes.body
Incorporating videos to teach literacy is beneficial as it caters to a wider range of learning styles. It is an interesting and engaging medium which can effectively bolster the internalization and recall of content, and make better connections as compared to primarily teaching in the traditional form.

The Queen of Grammar videos are interesting as it is presented in local context. The corrections are authentic and will be familiar when shown to students, and allow them to relate to the incorrect usage of terms.

The video lesson plans are a great resource with step by step guides for teaching comprehension in core content areas as well. On top of teaching content enhancements like graphic organizers to practice comprehension skills, the lesson plans present a cognitive strategy approach which enhances the skills of summarizing, prediction, questioning and clarifying. I can use the lesson plans for content area instructions in expository texts, which may require more competency skills as they are more abstract and complicated in nature with varied structures as compared to narrative texts.

The shmoop videos are content friendly and accurate in expanding content area vocabulary, while also reinforcing the teaching of correct vocabulary usage.

John Coencas further illustrate how videos are able to further improve visual and auditory skills. These prerequisites have a profound effect on a child’s ability to comprehend what they read or decode from others. Videos can serve as a way to promote discussion for students to build competencies in comprehending and analyzing visual and auditory cues, which effectively builds confidence to engage in discussions to build reading and comprehension competencies.

# data[].attributes.body
Movies can be a great platform for students of varying abilities to learn together and connect with each other. Apart from exposing students from different forms of genres of short films and movies, they also become another medium for students to hone their listening and observation skills and also take in reference on how to speak and use words in context during speech and writing.

As an AED(LBS), using videos or short stories such as Kumar’s Queen of Grammar skits can become a viable option for multisensory and explicit teaching for students with SEN that have language deficiencies.

I can incorporate the episode on countable and uncountable nouns to compliment my pull out session. The video is short, informative and funny so it would have been very easy to be part of the pull out session and to supplement the learning for the day. The video will not only be entertaining but it can act as a visual reference to reinforce the concepts that were taught during the pullout session.

We were always encouraged to take up a multisensory approach in our delivery method of teaching. Using these short videos will support us in our lesson delivery and generate interest in the subject matter because of the style of the videos.

# data[].attributes.body
The Queen of Grammar videos were very enjoyable! They were short and impactful, I couldn't help but share the videos to my family and friends on the importance of proper grammar.

Movies can help young adults with low self-esteem overcome their fear of incompetence and build connections with their peers.

Build their self-esteem in order to minimize feelings of anxiety and inferiority. Students with SEN and normal peers can share their opinions about movies in a safe, comfortable environment.

We can use movies as a link to connect students with special needs with others. We can ask them what genres they enjoy and find lines in movies that stick out and is beneficial for learning. Then, we can encourage active discussion.

I personally still remember some lines from movies and TV sitcoms from many years ago - educational or not. For example, "WE WERE ON A BREAK!".

I must say that E-learning 4 was fun and light-hearted. I enjoyed watching the videos and the resources shared would definitely come useful to me in my role as an AED(LBS).
It is engaging and an interesting way to help student's in their learning of the English Language through the use of movies/videos.
Queen of Grammar was really entertaining and 6 episodes of that were not enough for me. I think these videos would be suitable for secondary school students. Though the videos were produced 7 years ago, it was my first time watching them. I realized that Speak Good English has other videos on YouTube which could be incorporated into our lessons as well. Movies are also a great tool for learning English. As we live in a global era, the students we have are mostly exposed to content on the internet from all over the world. These movies not only help them to speak good English but also teach them to understand how people from other countries speak English, with their accents and also learn about their cultures and norms.
I truly enjoyed this E-learning session. I hope to be able to give students the same enjoyable experience when I am in school in the future.

Queen of Grammar

I love this series the most. The videos are short and easy to understand, and it truly fits our local context very well. That reminds me of the speak good English campaign which I had in my Primary school days. My friends always caught me using Mandarin or poor grammar structure in my speech, and I would have to pay them with a coupon as a fine. That one month campaign, which was held school-wide, was my nightmare. Haha!!! Looking back, I think it was fun, and it had helped me in some ways to converse better in English. I will use the videos by Speak Good English Movement as one of the tools with my students.

List of Shmoop Videos

I must confess! Some of the videos in this list helped to correct the mistakes which I also made. I am glad I learnt and understand them now. That goes into my bookmark for teaching resources as well.

All at C Lesson Plans

Wow! These lesson plans are very creative, from commercials to Christmas advertisements to music to documentaries. Everything around us could be put together and used as a lesson plan. I guess this is what we always say, make learning comes to life?

How to Learn English with Movies | Top 10 Best Films

I love watching movies, and yes, I usually watch them with subtitles to understand them better. Sometimes the actor/ actress speaks too fast for me to catch them, and the subtitles helped. I come from a Chinese and dialect speaking family, so my English is not that fluent. In my younger days, I struggled a lot when I watched our local Channel 5 dramas. It was only during my poly days when I started to speak more English. Now, technology has made it easier for me to look up the meanings of words that I do not know.

Conclusion

With all that said, I think lesson delivery must evolve and change to suit the needs of our learners. In this era where technology plays a very important part in our lives, using movies and videos to learn and teach English will help learners pick up the language faster. It will also leave a deep impression in them as they are very engaging and entertaining. I like and enjoyed it too! I would make use of these resources shared with my students in the future. I would also encourage them to read widely as that will help them expand their knowledge and vocabulary bank.

*PS: I have not watched all the movies listed on this page; I will be spending some time on them during the holidays.

The materials shared in e-learning 4 are interesting and insightful resources. I foresee myself using some of these resources as AED LBS. Videos are an attractive tool for any lesson, especially in this new era of online learning.

The blog containing videos and lesson plans for teachers is fantastic. The lesson plan, teacher notes, together with the PowerPoint slides, are abundantly resourceful. I looked through one of the lesson notes that used the video titled "Japan dog to a lion". It was interesting to note how a lesson on online shopping is made interesting through the simple advertisement video. To an adult audience like me, the video was interesting to sustain my attention. Retention of attention also means retention of information. Likewise, the lesson will capture students' attention as well. They will retain lesson information as an active learning process is involved.  It is a great tool to teach language, social skills, and morals by activating senses and emotions during the learning process. The blog also has a good collection of video databases to adapt to our students' preferences.

In the local context, Good English movement video clips were informative and humorous. It is interesting to note that the videos gave both examples and non-examples of the topic discussed. Shmoop video are equally informative and a great resource tool to teach English grammar rules.

Joseph Coencas's article was an interesting read as well. The significance of using movies for the student with special needs is apparent in his article. Joseph suggested students with special needs benefit greatly from hearing and seeing what they read. A movie with subtitles will aid students to understand content than just reading a book. Movies make books come alive and register the vocabulary with context. It also improves language skills and ignites interest in the language for students with learning difficulties. The OTUK website conveniently filtered movies that are appropriate for students saving us the trouble to hunt for good ones.

E-learning 4 resources are beneficial. Using movies in lesson is a great teaching style to consider as movies teach students language and social skills, together with moral values.

# data[].attributes.body
The videos are enjoyable, informative with a tinge satire. I believe media is an integral part of education. The issue is finding the appropriate one, content and duration-wise.

The lessons from the videos showed me how improper use of grammar will in turn model it to students. If we are ever intending to break away from our old habits we need to start being aware. However that does not mean we are abandoning our unique identity by adopting a more proper way to speak a language. It just means we are moving towards a mastery into something we aim to be good ar.

If our children really learn more from what we do than what we teach, then modelling good Language will definitely help them learn faster. Which is why movies make such a great educational tool.

Movies can not only model language but model behaviours as well. I would particularly use movies to demonstrate social skills and motivation.

The repertoire given in the e-learning is a good collection of resources I can refer to from time to time. the Smoop's youTube channel is a valuable resource to teach English grammar which I highly recommend to 'hit the subscribe button'.

In all, this lesson just encouraged me to build a library of video resources. Perhaps produce some on my own, possibly featuring Clive's voice and the myriad talents of TG3.

As an AED LBS, I am certain that I would be using videos during my withdrawal lessons as a form of strategy.

1. Episode 2 from the Kumar videos resonated with me as I feel that I sometimes slip into broken English when conversing with friends. When watching the video, I realised that it sounds super awful when someone speaks in broken English. I must be mindful to keep my speech clear when speaking with my students.

One of the strategies for reading fluency is Reader’s Theatre. It is when students read off scripts aloud to build reading fluency. Instead of getting students to perform in it, I realised that when they watch videos of Reader’s Theatre performances, students would be able to pick up prosody from watching. As a scaffold, teachers or AED LBS may want to print out captions so that students will be able to follow the part of the video that they are watching.

2. I am saving the List of 74 Shmoop videos. In all honesty, I have not gone through ALL the videos, but from a number of the videos that I’ve watched, they are short and direct to the point. During my secondary school stint when I took on some students during my withdrawal sessions, many of them faced these basic problems in grammar. At that point in time, I could not really answer in depth. With this list on hand, I can easily use these videos to explain grammar rules. If needed, I would work on them further by capturing screenshots from these videos to compile them for my students to use as a visual support.

3. I've downloaded some suggested lesson plans from the All at C site as I find them fascinating and intriguing, and rather refreshing. I would probably execute them during my withdrawal lessons. Whilst the lesson plans provided are mostly for a bigger class setting, I can modify them to suit my profile of students.

I can see myself using the "A Very Merry Mistake" lesson for students with self esteem issues. By using this teaching video, I hope that students with SLI would realise that not only those with learning difficulties struggle with comprehension, but a neurotypical person would go through some issues with understanding and comprehension as the world is made up of many accents and pronunciation.

I will probably use the "Oddly Unsatisfying" video for students with ADHD or Autism to relate feelings into their school life/work. (eg. How do you think having an organised folder is satisfying?" or "What can be done when you don't feel satisfied after a certain incident happen") The vocabulary segment will work for students struggling with English.

For the lesson on "The boy and the piano", I will probably just use Step 10-11 of the lesson plan. I think the students will appreciate it if i inject abit of wackiness during withdrawal lessons. I can forsee my students will have lots of excited expressions and sharing of thoughts when I show them the wacky gift ideas!

For Primary school students, I will probably use the "Mini Burgers" lesson as children at that age enjoy toy unboxing videos. This lesson will push them to be creative in guessing the ingredients!

The "5 step lesson plan for any cooking video" will also come in handy for the days that i need a creative writing activity.

For a graduting student in a secondary school who struggles with social skills, I can see myself using "Employable Me" to further reiterate the importance of first impressions. During my stint, I had gone through withdrawal lessons on this topic. Having this video and lesson plan will enable me to explore this topic better.

4. Joseph Coencas gave 5 objectives on how watching movies can help students with SEN in a secondary school. As an AED T&L in a secondary school, I have seen how teachers made use of movies or video clips to teach their students, especially in History or Social Studies lesson. In those classes, the objectives of showing those videos were more to bring history to life, as usually in History, we learn about unfamiliar situations from the past.  As a form of differentiation, students who are visual and auditory learners would be able to retain information better through viewing the videos.

However, during an English lesson, I realised that when teachers show the video, it met the objectives of Joseph Coencas more. By showing video clips during an English class, it:

- Teaches students how to sharpen their seeing and listening skills.

-  Encourage class discussions and written expression.

-  Motivate students to pursue subjects of interest they learn about from their viewing of a variety of movie

Another one of Joseph Coencas objectives was on how watching videos help to alleviate feelings of anxiety and inferiority. Students with SLI sometimes suffer from low self-esteem as a result of dealing with their learning difficulties. By receiving instructional information through the means of a video clip, students with SEN would be able to comprehend the visuals better than written text.

All of these objectives have demonstrated that using videos as a strategy may be beneficial when dealing with students with special needs. These resources provided for E-learning 4 made me feel that I have walked away with alot of wealth at my fingertips. But practicum time dunnnnooo lah see how 🤣

thank you for reading my grandmother story. I find NCS120 very tough for me, but i enjoyed this lesson alot. 🥰
