Transaction

Methodology

(The teacher can

use the mentioned techniques, wherever applicable, and can use any other too.)

Transaction would proceed in the following manner-

Brain Storming-The class would start with a discussion on what the students have already learnt in the previous classes and hence what is it that they would learn now. They would also be told the significance of the topic that they would be studying.

Introduction of the topic– Digital Content would be shared

Active Learning and group learning-

Pass word : facilitator gives a definition of a word or a concept and students guess the word. Students will be divided into teams . one team member describes the things on his list for team mates before the time runs out . (Critical thinking, Communication)

Numbered heads together : Students work in groups to discuss the material or the answer to the question. Each group has a number and each participant in each group has a number. After the groups discuss, the facilitator draws a group number and a participant number to respond to the question. This ensures that everyone in the group is paying attention and that group prepares everyone to answer the question. (Critical thinking, Communication)

Group Learning

  • Topic- classification of forests and negative factors which are responsible for depletion of forests and conservation methods .

(Competencies: Critical thinking and problem solving)

Students will be divided into 6 groups (6 x 5). Each group will study the topic given to them.Analysis will be done by groups, followed by cross questioning.

  • Topic– negative factors responsible for the depletion of forests

(Competencies: Critical thinking and citizenship)

Students will critically analyses the factors responsible for the depletion of forests and how to overcome this problem .

  • Topic- what other people are doing to conserve forests and what we can do to conserve.

(Competencies: Citizenship, Critical thinking)

  us Hence, students will analyse their own whys to conserve forests.

Differentiation:

Class will be divided into three parts – Average, Weak and gifted students. Three types of worksheet will be made for three categories:

   
Gifted students They will be innovating some good practices, by which we can conserve forest.
Average students These students will sit in group of three and do some research work related to importance and conservation methods.
Weak students These children will plant some trees near their house write what benefit we get by these tress.

•     Topic -Revision of chapter Students would be able to enhance their creativity
by creating mind map for entire chapter using topics and subtopics for each.
