6 MULTIGRADE TOOLKIT ENGLISH HOME LanguagE

1. PREAMBLE This Multi-grade Toolkit is meant to assist teachers who practice multi-grade teaching (MGT) in the Senior Phase. It consists of an adapted version of the Annual Teaching Plan (ATP) as well as an exemplar lesson plan covering activities to be done over the first 2-weekly cycle of the ATP especially to suit MGT schools. It is important to note that it is hoped that such a lesson plan will assist the teacher by providing her or him with a model of how information to be taught is gleaned from the ATP and packaged for lesson planning in a multi-grade set-up. Teachers, therefore, are expected to use the ATP in preparing lesson plans that are in keeping with the model provided here. It must be noted that activities in the three Senior Phase grades have been aligned so that the teacher may teach all the learners across three grades at the same time. This alleviates the need to do three Lesson Plans for three grades in MGT. Therefore it becomes important that teachers do not misconstrue the sameness of ‘content’ to be taught to mean that they may teach the activities at the same level. As much as possible, different grades are expected to experience differing levels of difficulty and depth from the same activity being taught. We call that “differentiated learning”. Further, teachers are reminded to integrate skills, irrespective of the focus of the lesson. To that end, it is recommended that the teacher makes every effort to teach language structures and conventions regularly, even when the focus is on listening and speaking, reading and viewing or, for that matter, writing and presentation. The expectation is that the teacher will simultaneously teach relevant grammar or language that will assist learners to generate language tools to apply in these other skills. Teachers should, furthermore, note that the ‘content’ drawn from the ATP should be framed in a 2-weekly cycle in such a way that it culminates into a formal task at the end of the cycle. We are trying to engender an orientation that the 2- weekly cycle actually prepares the learners - via all 4 language skills and in line with policy regarding weighting – to generate as much information as possible that will assist them in coming up with a solid formal task at the end of the cycle. This becomes Formal Assessment and it is to be recorded. However, informal assessment occurs continually on a daily basis, and is not necessarily to be recorded. It is therefore recommended strongly that schools practicing multi-grade should desist from combining learners who do not belong in the same phase, if they are to benefit from this toolkit. Accordingly, Grade 7 may only be combined with Grades 8 & 9 only. They may under no circumstances be combined with Grade 6, for example. Therefore, in closing, we hope that teachers will take the cue from this toolkit and maximize on it whenever they conduct their activities in the multi-grade environment. We are convinced that it will provide the much-needed direction and assistance in the MGT schools.
