I will also try include real life examples to so the students can create stronger connections.]]> 2019-05-09 17:58:34 UTC https://padlet.com/16232852/14qguthcqd9h/wish/358607194 16232852 https://padlet.com/16232852/14qguthcqd9h/wish/358614798 Biological World 6 - This Learning outcome helps students understand how different factors affect human health. It connects to the learning outcome BW4 as it explores the human health of the heart and other systems.

Nature of Science 4 - This learning outcome wants students to investigate things in science by  analyse data to identify patterns and relationships. This links to the learning outcome BW4 as the students investigate the effect of exercise on pulse rate.

Nature of Science 9 - This learning outcome wants students to  research and present information on the contribution that scientists make to scientific discovery and invention, and its impact on society. This links to the learning outcome BW4 as students research and investigate how to look after your heart.]]> 2019-05-09 18:13:58 UTC https://padlet.com/16232852/14qguthcqd9h/wish/358614798 16232852 https://padlet.com/16232852/14qguthcqd9h/wish/358688770 2019-05-09 22:21:36 UTC https://padlet.com/16232852/14qguthcqd9h/wish/358688770 16232852 https://padlet.com/16232852/14qguthcqd9h/wish/358692420 This is a great way to involve the whole class and get them working with the bigger picture in mind. Inquiry based learning helps students to research information for themselves and allows them a level of control in their own learning. Jigsaw method also draws on many of the key skills that the new curriculum requires such as "managing myself," "being literate," "working with others," "communicating" and also "managing information and thinking." ]]> 2019-05-09 22:46:52 UTC https://padlet.com/16232852/14qguthcqd9h/wish/358692420 16232852 https://padlet.com/16232852/14qguthcqd9h/wish/358701461 This is my unit of learning for the second four weeks of placement. ]]> 2019-05-09 23:41:20 UTC https://padlet.com/16232852/14qguthcqd9h/wish/358701461 16232852 https://padlet.com/16232852/14qguthcqd9h/wish/358703095 We carried out the heart dissection in one of our double classes. The students worked really well and enjoyed the lesson. They found each of the chambers and blood vessels. ]]> 2019-05-09 23:50:31 UTC https://padlet.com/16232852/14qguthcqd9h/wish/358703095 16232852 https://padlet.com/16232852/14qguthcqd9h/wish/358703613 I incorporated mind maps into some of my lessons. I felt it helped structure information visually and enhances memory through the use of mental triggers. Mind maps are also a great revision aid for exams and class tests as all information is on one sheet. I used this link to broaden my own insights on mind mapping. ]]> 2019-05-09 23:53:18 UTC https://padlet.com/16232852/14qguthcqd9h/wish/358703613 16232852 https://padlet.com/16232852/14qguthcqd9h/wish/358704035 I incorporated many key skills in my lessons over the duration of my placement. These skills are vital for developing independent, critical thinking young adults and also for developing numeracy and literacy skills. 
In relation to the key skill working with others (WWO) I included a lot of group work such as jigsaw method, projects and group posters. This helps the students develop good relationships and appreciate the value of cooperating with one another to reach goals. While completing the key skill (WWO) the communication (C) skill would also have been incorporated. This is vital for developing literacy. Students would have had to brainstorm and research to come up with ways of carry out experiments which leads us to the key skills of being creative (BC) and managing information and thinking (MI&T). I constantly encouraged the students and created a positive learning environment where students felt safe to share their thoughts and opinions - which involves the key skill of staying well (SW). ]]> 2019-05-09 23:55:35 UTC https://padlet.com/16232852/14qguthcqd9h/wish/358704035 16232852 https://padlet.com/16232852/14qguthcqd9h/wish/358705669 I used this peer review paper to give the students a little extra information on the heart and how not all animals have the same heart structure. 
I explained to them how some animals don't have vessels and they have an open circulatory system. Others have 3 chambers and there blood mixes. The students were amazed at this and thought it was very cool.]]> 2019-05-10 00:04:54 UTC https://padlet.com/16232852/14qguthcqd9h/wish/358705669 16232852 https://padlet.com/16232852/14qguthcqd9h/wish/358706389 This is one of the homework assignments i gave my first year students. As some of the drawings of the heart are quite complex i felt this was a simple way to teach the students how to draw and label the heart structure.]]> 2019-05-10 00:09:34 UTC https://padlet.com/16232852/14qguthcqd9h/wish/358706389 16232852 https://padlet.com/16232852/14qguthcqd9h/wish/358706786 I used this video to teach the students about the circulation of the blood around the body. I got the students to take down 3 key points while watching the video. I think seeing how things happen often helps students grasp the concept better. ]]> 2019-05-10 00:12:07 UTC https://padlet.com/16232852/14qguthcqd9h/wish/358706786 16232852 https://padlet.com/16232852/14qguthcqd9h/wish/359031949 I used this image to explain the structure of the heart and show the students the different parts of the heart. After showing this image I put the key words up on the side of the board and went through the pronunciation of them with the students to improve there scientific literature. ]]> 2019-05-10 20:30:33 UTC https://padlet.com/16232852/14qguthcqd9h/wish/359031949 16232852 https://padlet.com/16232852/14qguthcqd9h/wish/359040295 I asked the students to complete a homework assignment where they had to research and create a poster on how to look after your heart.
