Question

question 4 (40 marks)
4.1 you want to develop reading - comprehension with your learners. design a lesson that you can teach in grade 3 using multiple modes. it should involve different senses (like hearing, speaking, seeing and touching). it should integrate all language skills (learners should listen, speak, read and write).
use at least three (3) of the following resources in your lesson:

• tape - recorder, radio, or cellphone (choose one)
• television (optional)
• pictures (graphics)
• written texts
• real objects
• physical activity - dramatise/play (20)

4.2 critically explain how you would assess the above lesson in a paragraph of ten (10) lines. (10)
4.3 justify how you would encourage learners to develop a passion for reading. (10)
total = 100

Explanation:

For 4.1, design a Grade 3 reading - comprehension lesson using multiple modes and at least three given resources, integrating all language skills. For 4.2, critically explain assessment of the lesson in ten lines. For 4.3, justify ways to encourage a passion for reading.
For 4.1:

1. Introduction (Using Pictures and Real Objects): Start the lesson by showing pictures related to the reading material and real - life objects that connect to the story. For example, if reading about animals, show pictures of different animals and bring in small animal toys. This engages the seeing and touching senses. Ask students to describe what they see and touch, integrating speaking and listening skills.
2. Reading Aloud (Using Tape - Recorder): Use a tape - recorder to play an audio version of the written text. Students listen while following along with the written text. This helps with hearing and reading skills. After the audio, have students take turns reading aloud parts of the text, enhancing speaking skills.
3. Dramatization (Physical Activity): Divide students into small groups and have them dramatize the story. They can use the real objects and pictures as props. This involves movement (touching and seeing) and speaking as they act out the story.

For 4.2:
Assessment can be done through observation of students' participation in group activities, such as how well they collaborate during dramatization. Check their ability to answer comprehension questions related to the text, which shows reading and listening comprehension. Evaluate their speaking skills during class discussions and descriptions of pictures and objects. Also, look at their written work if they are asked to write a short summary or answer written questions.
For 4.3:
To encourage a passion for reading, create a cozy reading corner in the classroom with interesting books and comfortable seating. Share personal reading experiences with students to inspire them. Organize reading competitions or challenges, like a "book - a - week" challenge. Provide positive feedback and rewards for reading achievements. Also, connect reading to real - life situations, for example, if reading about a place, show pictures of that place or talk about someone who has visited there.

Answer:

4.1: See above lesson design.
4.2: See above assessment explanation.
4.3: See above justification for encouraging reading passion.
