Lain Alex ADAM - Student Teacher Lesson Plan Murdoch University


Day: Wednesday
Class: SC 44

Date: 27th August 2014
No. of Students: 15-20
Year Level: Year 10
Topic: Human Evolution
Start Time:
11:40am
Finish Time:
12:03pm
Students Prior Knowledge and Experience:
Watched documentary on human evolution and covered types of
human/evolutionary stages which provided all the information needed for task.

Learning Purposes:

- To have the students identify and
associate the correct human
evolutionary stages
- To provide knowledge on the
order of species
- To develop some idea about the
habits and advancement as the
humans/apes progressed
Student Evaluation:

Students will be given two worksheets to
complete.
Students can use the two worksheets
together to complete each quicker as there
is information on each that is not on the
other. They fit together.
Student work will be checked by the
student teacher when they have completed
each sheet correctly to ensure the
information has reached them.

EXTRA: Students will be asked some
questions about how they went about
getting the order and descriptions of the
humans correctly.

Human Evolution Worksheet [made up by student teacher]
Skull Identification Worksheet [made up by student teacher]
Pens, Scissors, Glue stick
Freddo Frogs or similar treats

Main Body
Completing worksheets

Students will need to work individually to complete both worksheets.
When the first student has finished one sheet correctly, let the whole
class know and give out the first prize/incentive. This will encourage
others to work harder towards completing the task.
If students need help, be approachable and attentive in providing help
and feedback for what they have done and/or are doing.

Students who finish early will then be asked how they went about finding
out and deciding which name and description belonged where.

Conclusion

Thank students for completing the task.
Collect worksheets from students or have a student collect them.
Let them pack up and head off to their next class.
