- 1. Lesson Plan – Lesson One Teacher: Lesson: Introduction to ‘Scratch’ Date: Class: Attainment Targets Programme of Study Level 3 - Level 4 - Level 5 - Functional Skills Literacy Numeracy ICT Personal Learning and Thinking objectives SEAL objectives Learning objectives (WALT) All - To recognise the different controls available from ‘Scratch’ and use these appropriately. Identify and Select. Most – To be able to apply the appropriate controls to their work and recognise what controls would be best used, Review. Some –To complete a ‘Scratch’ test project and evaluate problem areas and discuss how different controls could solve these. Organise and check accuracy. Fit for purpose/audience. Learning Outcomes (WILF) All will have used ‘Scratch’ and attempted to used some controls whilst working through the PowerPoint. Most will have explored the use of a variety of controls. Some will have completed the scratch project and evaluated the use of different controls. TIBS: To improve your searching skills so you can make a presentation directed at a particular audience. Potential Errors and Misconceptions Using different controls for different ‘Sprites’ can sometimes become confusing. Pupils therefore need to be reminded to monitor this and not put in extra controls which will out-weigh another.

Differentiation: Presentation (Teacher) Pupils will be working through this at their own pace. Pupils of higher ability should be encouraged to make improvements on the basic project. Literacy/Numeracy/other Links Assessment Strategies to Enhance Learning Literacy: reading: 2.2 a, d writing: 2.3, a Question and answer. Numeracy: Q1 How can we make the ball bounce higher? Citizenship: Q2 Which controls can we use to change the direction of the ball? Classroom Organisation Use of Support Staff Whole discussion Allocated staff support the following students: Pair (ability) work EAL: SEN: Behaviour: Extension Work Homework To evaluate how improvements can be made to the basic project and why this would be an Experiment with ‘Scratch’ at home and look at other improvement. project ideas online if possible Key Vocabulary: Controls, Sprite, Sequence
- 4. Lesson Outline Name: Subject: ICT Class: NC Year: Date: Teaching and Learning Activities Check uniform as students enter classroom in orderly manner. (10:00 – 10:05) Bell Activity 5 mins Pupils will have cards on their tables with instructions on how to make a cup of tea. They will be asked to put these into order. (10:05 – 10:15) Starter Activity 10 mins Pupils will be introduced to the programme ‘Scratch’ by the teacher. The teacher will show pupils some existing projects from the ‘scratch’ website to show the pupils what can be achieved through the programme. They will be told that throughout the next six lessons, they will be working on their own project. The teacher will model how to access the programme and where the PowerPoint can be found for the pupils to work through. (10:15 – 10:50) Main Activity 35 mins Pupils will work through the PowerPoint to create a basic project. This will help the pupils become used to the different controls and how to use them appropriately. If the pupils successfully complete the basic project, they should be asked to attempt to improve the project through the use of different controls. The pupils who have done this can then evaluate what they did to improve the project and why they think this is better. Plenary (10:50 – 11:00) 10 mins Pupils will be shown by the teacher what their finished projects should look like. If pupils have improved on the basic project, they should be encouraged to share this with the rest of the class. The teacher will also model an improved project and ask pupils to state why they believe it is an improvement and guess at what controls have been used. Students dismissed in an orderly manner.
