SCHOOL OF EDUCATION LESSON PLAN (All school experiences other than Internship) LESSON ORGANISATION Year Level: 11 Time: Period 2 Date: TBA Key Learning Area: Studies of Religion Lesson Topic: Islam Student’s Prior Knowledge: This the first introduction lesson into Islam. Some students Origins pre-Islamic Arabia as the cultural and historical context for the development of Islam may have encountered Islam in other subject areas such Learning Sequence Provision for Learner Diversity/Educational Risk: Settle down Prayer Introduction Think- Pair- Share Group Work de Bono Mindmap Discussion Power Point Presentation Conclusion as History when studying the Crusades. Most students will have minimal knowledge of the culture and historical context of pre-Islamic Arabia. I will print out the PowerPoint slides in a large font so that students who may find the projection hard to see can have a physical enlarged copy in front of them. I will cater to a variety of learning styles by the wide variety of creative activities. I will also cater to a wide variety of learning styles by using different teaching stimulus- such as the cartoon images, the PowerPoint presentation, the use of sound, and the video. The think-pair-share exercise will ensure that students who think a little slower have time to think through the answers without getting disrupted. Teacher’s Prior Preparation/Organisation: Prepare the resources. The cartoon images that will be used in class. The PowerPoint presentation. Ensure that the AV equipment is working.

Prayer Introduction 5 A basic overview of the unit will be given. A general introduction to Islam will be outlined. What this course will cover and student/teacher expectations will be set. Learning Sequence (Content to be covered/Learning Experiences) & Key Questions: Think- Pair- Share 10 Students are to imagine that they are a citizen of Mecca in the year 570. Each student is given a map of Saudi Arabia. Each student is also given a cartoon images of what Mecca would be like (some images are of the desert, others are of the ka’ba, other images are of camels, etc) Each image is different. Cartoon images relating to preIslamic Arabia Students are to use the think- pair share model to answer the question ‘Imagine that you are a citizen in the city of Mecca, describe the culture in your own words’. Students should write a 300 word statement. 20 Students are then to share their idea with the person next to them. Group work de Bono Mind map 5 10 Students will then be divided into groups of four. In their groups students should discuss their findings from the think- pair- share activity. Each group should publish their results using a de Bono mind map on an A3 paper. Students should therefore be able to relate information such as their feelings when they lived in the year 570 in Mecca. Students should compare their cartoon images so that a holistic picture of the culture and historical context may be developed. Discussion Students will then be asked to share their answers with the rest of the class. PowerPoint presentation 5 A3 paper 5 different coloured textas. I will use a PowerPoint presentation that has an embedded video to help further develop the students understanding of pre-Islamic Arabia. The use of imagination in the previous activity and the use of audio/ visual stimulus will cater for different learning styles. Conclusion Recap what we have learnt. Ask a few random students questions relating to pre-Islamic Arabia as an informal assessment task.

Newspaper article/ worksheet finish Islam/ Christianity activity Answer to worksheet Whiteboard marker Learning Sequence (Content to be covered/Learning Experiences) & Key Questions: Continue with activity from previous lesson. New groups are to be created so that experts from the different Gospels are together. 15 Newspaper article: A great newspaper article from the Catholic newspaper in Brisbane gives an overview of Islam. It has images, a terminology table, and uses plain simple language. As a class read through the article. Ask for student volunteers to read different paragraphs. 10 10 Worksheet: Each student will then receive a worksheet based on the article. Students are to answer the questions using the article as an aid. Some questions are not from the article and require students to think. The use of higher order questioning will help students to grapple with the subject content. Islam/ Christianity activity: Students will then be asked to draw up a graph to compare Islam and Christianity. The subheadings in the graph will be principal beliefs, sacred texts and writings, lives of adherents 5 5 5 This activity will allow the students to think at a deeper level as the have to compare and contrast. Many answers are in the worksheet but the students will also be asked to reflect on their prior knowledge. Teacher Centred Discussion: As a class we will discuss the answers to the above activity. I will ask one of the students to draw the graph on the board and to write some of the answers down. Answers: As a class go through the answers to the worksheet. Conclusion: Summarise the key concepts that have been learnt. Handout the terminology sheet so the students can use it for quick reference. Terminology worksheet SCHOOL OF EDUCATION LESSON PLAN (All school experiences other than Internship) LESSON ORGANISATION Year Level: 11 Date: TBA Time: Period 4 Student’s Prior Knowledge: Key Learning Area: HSIE: Studies of Religion Lesson Topic: Islam MAJOR OUTCOMES: Origins Students are aware of the social and religious practices that existed in pre-Islamic Arabia. Students are familiar with the principal beliefs, sacred texts, and teachings of Students learn about: the Prophet Muhammad Islam. More specifically students have encountered Muhammad on many occasions throughout this unit. They are aware that he is the prophet of Allah and that he received the Quran. The students also know that Students learn to: examine the principal events in Muhammad’s life describe the development of Islam after the death of Muhammad under the leadership of the Four Rightly Guided Caliphs Learning Sequence Settle down Introduction Timeline Discussion Video Conclusion Muhammad is the founder of Islam. This previous knowledge will help to further develop the students understanding in this lesson. A constructivist approach can be adopted so that students can build and expand on this previous knowledge. The Quality Teaching Framework pedagogical approaches will be employed so that the learning has significance. Provision for Learner Diversity/Educational Risk: To cater for a variety of learning styles I hope to make my lesson inclusive by employing many techniques in my teaching. I will use imagery, video, written text, worksheets and peer activities to help the students easily access the information. I hope to implement the Quality Teaching Framework so that my lesson is a true reflection of ’best practice’. I will ensure that the lesson is relevant and inclusive so that I can develop each individual students learning. Teacher’s Prior Preparation/Organisation: I need to collect resources: the Islam compass video, before the lesson. I need to ensure that the classroom has a TV/ video player. I also need to get into the class early to set it up. I asked students in the previous lesson to bring their textbooks as the first half of the lesson relies heavily on it. LESSON EVALUATION (to be completed AFTER the lesson) Assessment of Lesson Outcomes and suggestions for improvement: Teacher self-reflection and self-evaluation: [OFFICIAL USE ONLY] Comments by classroom teacher, HOPP, supervisor: LESSON PROGRESSION (attach worksheets, examples, marking key, etc, as relevant) Time Motivation/Introduction: Resources: Settle down 3 5 Introduction 5 Mark the roll. Recap last lesson (this will serve as revision to refresh the student’s memory, this will also help develop a zone of proximal development. By employing this pedagogical strategy I hope to build on the student’s previous knowledge and develop it using a constructivist approach). Key Questions: annual fair reasons. What were the social conditions like in pre-Islamic Arabia? Nomadic Bedouin tribes, Mecca was developing as a centre of trade and culture What did the people believe in pre-Islamic Arabia? In pagan gods What was the Ka’ba prior to Muhammad? housed 360 idol gods, site of Why was Muhammad opposed by the Makkan society? Ka’ba economic Learning Sequence (Content to be covered/Learning Experiences) & Key Questions: Timeline 15 10 Students are to complete a timeline on the worksheet provided. The Worksheet worksheet is designed in a visually appealing way so that visual Textbook and sequential learners will easily be able to understand the principal events in Muhammad’s life. Students are to use their textbooks pages 120-125 to help them create the timeline. Students are not only to list the major events but they also must provide a description of what significant event happened? Using Bloom’s taxonomy I will challenge the students to engage in higher order thinking. For instance: instead of students only providing a description of what happened, students should critically analyse the event. And ask questions like what if this did not take place? Overhead projector Discussion Textbook Students will then be asked to share their answers with the rest of the class. I will use the overhead projector as a visual aid. 5 2 I will then explain how we will be looking at post Muhammad. What happened after his death? The four rightly guided caliphs. The emergence immediately of Sunni and Shiite Muslims. Video TV Video player Video Students are to watch the Compass video documentary on Islam. This section of the documentary deals with post Muhammad. This will enable students to contextualise what they are learning. It will help them make connections and see the relevance of what they are studying. Conclusion Recap what we have learnt. Key events in Muhammad’s life and what happened after his death. We will look into the Caliphs in more detail next lesson. SCHOOL OF EDUCATION LESSON PLAN (All school experiences other than Internship) LESSON ORGANISATION Year Level: 11 Date: TBA Time: Period 2 Student’s Prior Knowledge: Key Learning Area: HSIE: Studies of Religion Lesson Topic: the four Rightly Guided Caliphs MAJOR OUTCOMES: Origins Students learn about: Students in the previous lesson have carefully examined the life of Muhammad. Students are aware that Muhammad is the founder of Islam. This previous knowledge will help to further develop the students understanding in this lesson. The Quality Teaching Framework will be implemented in this lesson by ensuring the development of Islam under the that intellectual quality is obtained from students. The last leadership of the Four Rightly Guided lesson ended with the question of; what happened to Caliphs Islam after the death of Muhammad? Therefore students Students learn to: know where their learning is headed in this lesson. This sequential follow on will help students make connections describe the development of Islam to their prior knowledge. after the death of Muhammad under the leadership of the Four Rightly Guided Caliphs, accounting for the emergence of the Sunni and the Shi’ia Learning Sequence Settle down Introduction Jig-saw Group work Class Discussion S.W.O.T analysis Conclusion Provision for Learner Diversity/Educational Risk: Since the main task is a jigsaw activity- I will provide modified worksheets for different learning abilities. For instance for an ESL student I will summarise the worksheet and change the terminology used so that the worksheet is accessible to the student. Teacher’s Prior Preparation/Organisation: I need to have all the worksheets prepared and photocopied before the lesson. I need to ensure that I have a whiteboard marker with me. I need to have copies of previous worksheets just in case a student was absent. LESSON PROGRESSION (attach worksheets, examples, marking key, etc, as relevant) Motivation/Introduction: Time Settle down 5 Resources: Mark roll Introduction Recap last lesson Ask students to get out worksheets (if anyone answered the 610-632 box they get a lolly or chocolate. This was given as an extra task and was not compulsory. The chocolate serves as positive reinforcement recognising students who are going beyond the expected. Learning Sequence (Content to be covered/Learning Experiences) & Key Questions: Worksheet from previous lesson. (Have spare copies for students that were absent). Jig-saw Group work 10 10 Students will be divided into groups. Each group will be given a ‘Caliph’. The group must become ‘experts’ about their Caliph. They need to study him carefully and write down the main points concerning the Caliph. Students are then arranged into new groups. Each group should have a different ‘Caliph expert’. Experts are to teach their group about the Caliph they studied. Students are to exchange notes and have a few points about each caliph. 5 Extra information on each Caliph. Class Discussion 10 Randomly choose a few students to discuss their results. Nominate a student to write the findings on the whiteboard. Whiteboard marker S.W.O.T analysis Students are to choose one Caliph (must be different to the S.W.O.T analysis 5 Caliph that they are experts on) and must complete a S.W.O.T analysis of this Caliph. Students are required to think beyond the textbook and information provided to complete this activity. Students need to engage in higher order thinking according to Bloom’s taxonomy. Students need to evaluate the Caliphs character and personality by closely examining their strengths and weaknesses. Studnets also need to be judgemental about the opportunities and threats that the Caliph faced at that time. Conclusion Ask a few students to share their S.W.O.T results. Have a basic recap of the four Caliphs. worksheet Timeline Major events during the life of Muhammad 570 590 610 619 620 622 630 620 Video Worksheet Living Islam: Foundation of Islam Compass- ABC 1. ‘In the name of God, the ___________________ and the ________________________ 2.
