Thank you for sharing the strategy if asking questions pertaining to the picture. It helps. What about ways to delve deeper into the picture to elicit a more thorough elaboration according to the plot of the story? :) 👍

2024-11-19 05:41:09 UTC

Using resources from SLS and scaffolding to enhance students’ picture composition skills

Wonderful

2024-11-19 05:47:33 UTC

Wonderful sharing thank you team! This is definitely achievable for many other subjects to bear in mind the e21cc when we plan our lessons.

Objectives clearly met!

kwan_yin_teng — 2024-11-19 05:47:47 UTC

The students were able to effectively communicate the key teaching and learning points. Well done!!

2024-11-19 05:48:03 UTC

Interesting perspective of engaging students in communication.

Presentation was engaging

2024-11-19 05:49:53 UTC

Good lesson where students are doing collaborative work and having effective communication.

2024-11-19 05:49:56 UTC

Love the interactive video :-)

2024-11-19 05:50:01 UTC

MKE Vanessa

Love the systematic way to scaffold children’s learning. Just curious, are the children able to stay engaged and focused since the process is rather time consuming. Also, how is the end product? Did all the children end up with similar essays since they brainstorm it together?

2024-11-19 06:00:31 UTC

Fun and engaging activities, where students do not need to come up with scientific explanations.

2024-11-19 06:00:59 UTC

The sharing demonstrated how Universal Design for Learning (UDL) principles can create more inclusive and engaging PE lessons. I especially appreciated how the team showed practical and actionable strategies to use. There was emphasis on technology and adaptive tools to support diverse learners. Overall, the inclusivity element in the lessons ensure every student can succeed. well done team!

Fun fun fun!

kwan_yin_teng — 2024-11-19 06:01:02 UTC

Children are enthused with the phenomenon which can be easily replicated at home. Spurs young minds to be curious and be awed. Great experience to teach observation skills.

2024-11-19 06:02:03 UTC

Good platform for students to make predictions and confirm their findings

2024-11-19 06:03:59 UTC

It is really amazing to see the tremendous improvement in the students after completing the tasks with the tasks card👍

2024-11-19 06:05:38 UTC

I learned how comparing a student's current performance to their past achievements can effectively track growth and personalise learning. The sharing provided practical strategies to integrate ipsative assessment into daily teaching, encouraging self-reflection and intrinsic motivation in students. Additionally, it highlighted how this approach supports the development of 21st-century competencies like critical thinking, adaptability, and self-directed learning.

2024-11-19 06:07:09 UTC

Im amazing by how well the students have learnt from the lesson and apply in communcation

What's the app that you used for this presentation?

2024-11-19 06:13:13 UTC

Good refresher on ZPD and beautiful engaging slides :) thank you

2024-11-19 06:13:18 UTC

Request to teach how to make such videos please! 🙏

Wow!

2024-11-19 06:13:54 UTC

Love the presentation!!!

2024-11-19 06:14:09 UTC

lovely video! Can share the app you used?

2024-11-19 06:14:50 UTC

Using inquiry based learning to bring out critical thinking and adaptive thinking.

2024-11-19 06:18:38 UTC

Thinking of allowing Lower Primary students to choose and answer a question that gets them thinking about their thinking each day/each week. Questions will be provided to them. Allowing them to choose encourages autonomy.

2024-11-19 06:19:29 UTC

Good ideas ans nice video

2024-11-19 06:20:16 UTC

Engaging hands-on experiments like “Colour Changing Milk” or like the MKEs said ‘magic milk 🤣’ help develop critical thinking and scientific observation skills in a fun and interactive way.

2024-11-19 06:21:11 UTC

Students’ empowerment by giving them choices.

2024-11-19 06:21:19 UTC

Play-based learning through simple kitchen science activities can spark curiosity and encourage inquiry-driven exploration among young learners.

Interesting and Fun

2024-11-19 06:22:35 UTC

A very easy way to bring young children into the world of SCIENCE

2024-11-19 06:22:37 UTC

It is so fun! Kids will be so curious on why it happens and happy from the hands on

2024-11-19 06:22:59 UTC

Providing opportunities for open-ended questioning and multiple solution pathways helps nurture a growth mindset and develops critical mathematical thinking in young learners.

Magic in a touch

2024-11-19 06:23:32 UTC

Wonders of learning exploded right in-front of us.

2024-11-19 06:25:36 UTC

The experiment was fun, although K1 kids will not know the concepts behind it, they will be curious to learn more.

Interesting & engaging video

2024-11-19 06:25:40 UTC

Which app/AI tool did you use to create this?

2024-11-19 06:26:16 UTC

love how effective the lesson is in helping the children make improvements :-)

Greatly impressed. Great job.

2024-11-19 06:26:18 UTC

2024-11-19 06:26:38 UTC

I love the design of the assignment that allows for adaptive (and maybe inventive) thinking. It looks so fun and engaging too!

Interesting use of the AI video during presentation.

2024-11-19 06:26:54 UTC

Students enjoy working with their peers. Getting them to work in groups using SLS would have kept them engaged.

2024-11-19 06:27:06 UTC

Power! Student centric activities with data somemore! Good job! By Raihan

2024-11-19 06:27:28 UTC

Very clear video

2024-11-19 06:27:37 UTC

Very meaningful project where students are able to track their progress and be motivated to strive for better results!

Thanks for showing a great example on how UDL can be applied. MK has done an internal sharing on this and we are looking at how this can be applied in different settings.

2024-11-19 06:29:04 UTC

2024-11-19 06:29:16 UTC

Well designed lessons which allowed student choice and empowered students to learn in their preferred ways, build on their strengths. Hope you can collaborate with more depts and spread the Learning.

2024-11-19 06:29:51 UTC

I like how it allows students to apply their critical thinking skills on different scenarios instead of just "copying and pasting" the concepts learnt

Killing many birds with one stone

2024-11-19 06:31:02 UTC

Great effort to connect many subjects to a PE lesson via using UDL Diverse students' needs are also met.

2024-11-19 06:36:12 UTC

Power! Evident of invested effort n time. Student centric with data somemore. Well done team! ....Raihan

Generate interest

2024-11-19 06:36:14 UTC

As an adult I find this super engaging, I believe students would love the opportunity to experiment and come up with questions to ask their teacher/ research for the answers.

Step-by-step

2024-11-19 06:37:45 UTC

The package was planned very well to scaffold students to write.

Cause and Effect

2024-11-19 06:41:40 UTC

Can introduce the above concept since scientific reasoning is still too far off for the young learners

Amazing experience!

2024-11-19 06:42:01 UTC

Enjoyed the succinct video

kwan_yin_teng — 2024-11-19 06:42:35 UTC

Thank you for the very clear and structured sharing! Can see that the strategies you used value added to your students’ learning.

2024-11-19 06:42:53 UTC

Very fun and engaging for kids. Generate interest

2024-11-19 06:43:01 UTC

What do students feel about how scaffolding has impacted their learning? Some students input video would be great

2024-11-19 06:43:11 UTC

The content was nicely presented. The thought process was good.

2024-11-19 06:43:38 UTC

Such a wonderful video presentation! Now that your students have some sort reached or ahieved your expectation, what are your plans to further stretch them preparinf them for p5?

2024-11-19 06:44:17 UTC

Good series of lessons with proper scaffolding. Could get the students to talk more about the pic also. Like what do you see in the picture. The nouns and add to their compo

Great outcome !

2024-11-19 06:44:23 UTC

With proper planning and great facilitation, the learning outcome can quite unexpected as shown by the students' responses. Well done! Mark

2024-11-19 06:44:48 UTC

Co-construction of meaning through discussion with peers.

2024-11-19 06:46:14 UTC

Good data collection. Clear ideas and presentation

2024-11-19 06:46:21 UTC

So much effort 💪 Thank you for doing this for the kids, and for sharing with us!

Good demonstration

2024-11-19 06:46:38 UTC

Good effort to present the students with opportunities to stretch their creativity. Good insight into how students think rightly or wrongly..

2024-11-19 06:47:54 UTC

Interesting observation for kids using colour. Can be used as pre lesson to enthuse the PRI students before the lesson proper.

2024-11-19 06:48:41 UTC

Marvellous! Intense. Very done

Comments

2024-11-19 06:48:42 UTC

Great presentation. Perhaps, more can be explored in terms of the effect and consequence (later part of the plot) of the use of certain vocab/adj in the expansion of the noun.

2024-11-19 06:48:53 UTC

See similarities with what I learnt in Ipsative Assessment where students have to do a reflection to assess where they’re at and how they were able to achieve what they achieved.

My learning has been enriched as I see tools to use to develop students self directed learning. When students are engaged, negative behaviour is minimised.

2024-11-19 06:49:19 UTC

I like how it provided a platform for students to work together and express their reasoning skills while working on the task, very relevant skills in both academics and daily life!

2024-11-19 07:00:13 UTC

I never knew this! Thank youuu

2024-11-19 07:00:30 UTC

Very engaging for adults, so I can imagine how engaged the MK pupils will be. Very fun!

2024-11-19 07:00:45 UTC

Using kitchen science and inquiry based learning which is a safe way to elicit children’s curiosity

2024-11-19 07:01:36 UTC

The power of ipsative assessment in transforming how we evaluate and support student growth. By focusing on individual progress rather than comparison with peers, it fosters a sense of accomplishment and encourages a growth mindset. This approach not only builds students' confidence but also aligns perfectly with nurturing 21st-century competencies like self-directed learning and adaptability, which I am now inspired to integrate more intentionally into my teaching practice

Nice works.

2024-11-19 07:04:23 UTC

2024-11-19 07:05:12 UTC

Please give us a tutorial how to do the video, it is so well done!

I am excited to try this with my kids too

2024-11-19 07:05:57 UTC

I’m impressed by the students’ responses, definitely a lot has been done before this could happen. Great job, Mark!

2024-11-19 07:06:11 UTC

Students were able to work well together to come up with good answers, shows their understanding.

wps2026 — 2024-11-19 07:06:29 UTC

Great presentation with a higher ability class. I was wondering how are you going to tweak the lesson for a lower ability class?

Short and Sweet

2024-11-19 07:07:20 UTC

Engaging video and informative content.

P4 Compo

2024-11-19 07:07:32 UTC

Systematic way of identifying, implementing and reviewing, process is evident. There is eXPlicit teaching of skills. Thank you.

2024-11-19 07:11:16 UTC

Interesting hands on experiment. The kids will love it

2024-11-19 07:12:07 UTC

Have not considered this method in my teaching. Will try this out next year.

2024-11-19 07:17:01 UTC

Enjoy the self created video to explain the lesson taught to the students

Very fun

2024-11-19 07:20:23 UTC

As a parent (and teacher), I’m heartened to see kids having so much fun at a young age. Truly encouraging the heart and joy of learning ❤️

wps2026 — 2024-11-19 07:20:33 UTC

Fun and engaging. However for higher ability students, perhaps can explain a little on the scientific process behind it as they will want to know more.

Awesome. Definitely stirs curiosity in the young minds. Thank you

2024-11-19 07:20:57 UTC

2024-11-19 07:21:12 UTC

Fun activity that will spark children’s interest in Science! But may I know what is the scientific reason behind the soap milk and colouring reaction?

2024-11-19 07:21:40 UTC

Fun to see the reactions. Will there be a lesson extension to this? So after they do this, what is the follow up activity, if any?

2024-11-19 07:21:45 UTC

Lovely self created video. Well done!

Love the data collection

2024-11-19 07:21:57 UTC

Very powerful pedagogy

2024-11-19 07:22:09 UTC

2024-11-19 07:22:15 UTC

It will be nice if kids can get some answers to what they observe. Feel like they are never too young to grasp some of these concepts, just have to water it down to their level!

The sharing video so cute, Very nice sharing, I like it!

2024-11-19 07:22:20 UTC

Like the gradual descaffolding

2024-11-19 07:22:29 UTC

Learning come alive!

2024-11-19 07:22:36 UTC

Definitely something fun for the young minds to wonder about and explore! Love the idea of kitchen science using things they can get at home. Thought it would be cool if there could a simplified explanation of why it happens like soap removes oil which is found in milk so that is why we use soap to clean the dishes too

2024-11-19 07:22:37 UTC

Interesting way to show the presentation and clear on the strategy used.

2024-11-19 07:23:19 UTC

Interesting sharing on scaffolding.

Very powerful way to think critically. Can link the EL outcomes very well

2024-11-19 07:23:22 UTC

Collaboration

2024-11-19 07:24:14 UTC

Thank you for driving the communication aspect of e21 cc domain in the lesson. Thank you too for showing me how it can be done. Cheers Mark! Well done.

Wendy

2024-11-19 07:26:01 UTC

Love how ur team is very clear in the planning and execution. Thank you for instilling the 21CC skills in the lesson. Cheers.

Wendy

2024-11-19 07:29:46 UTC

Love how u make the kids enjoy their day in school. Would be good if you can help to emphasise the part of being curious in their learning/ use the lingo of 21cc( maybe I missed it out).

Thanks

2024-11-19 07:30:31 UTC

Identifying the right criteria is important to help students become self-directed.

Thank You!

loy_hui_ming — 2024-11-19 08:21:24 UTC

Appreciate everyone's presence. Hope you have benefitted from our sessions. Do try out ipsative assessment and dispositions in your classes. May your students be self-directed learners!
