Mr. John is a teacher who believes in constructivist and learner-centered teaching methods. He will have his students, who already have knowledge of money through identifying coins and notes, build on this prior experience by doing a role play activity where they create a mock shop corner, allowing them to construct new understandings through group work. The students' learning will be assessed through word problems related to real-world shopping scenarios that connect to the activity.
Constructivist theory1
- 2. Mr. John is teacher who has been trained in a constructivist environment. Since he believes in the learner-centered approach, he actively engages his learners to construct new ideas or concepts based on their current/past knowledge. His students have knowledge about money (identifying various coins and notes). As experience, the students are used to buying snacks and sweets in the school canteen. The teacher’s task is to let them build on this knowledge through a role play and group work (creating a shop corner). Pupils will be evaluated using word problems based on their authentic and real-world environment.
