Task 1 : Create 5 questions for your student based on the video.

1.       What does continents mean?

2.       What are three countries in Europe that were mentioned in the video?

3.       Choose one European country from the video. Describe either one famous landmark, one animal, and one cultural tradition from that country.

4.       If you were planning a trip to Europe, which country would you like to visit and what would you like to see or do there? Explain your reasons using information from the video.

5.      How are the cultures or famous buildings in two European countries similar and different? Give at least two comparisons based on the video.

Task 2 : A word that my pupils may have difficulties comprehending and suggest solutions.

The word : Continents - Earth's largest continuous landmasses 

Solutions - Use a colorful desk globe and sing the popular educational song, the "7 Continents Song", on YouTube. 

Task 3 :Based on the previous video, choose the appropriate content standard , focus and learning standard that can you use to utilise the video for a lesson. Justify your choice.

Content Standard :

1.2 Understand meaning in a variety of familiar contexts.

This is the best fit because pupils are listening to information presented in a video and demonstrating their understanding through discussion or questions.

Focus :

Understand specific details when listening to text on familiar topics

Learning Standard:

1.2.2 Understand with support specific information and details of longer simple texts.

Pupils identify countries, animals, landmarks, or cultural facts from the video.

Justification:

I chose these because the activity requires pupils to listen carefully and identify key details about European countries, animals, cultures, and famous landmarks from the video. Pupils demonstrate their understanding by answering questions based on the information they heard. 

What do you hope to learn or be able to do by the end of this course?

My expectation by the end of this course is to be able to effectively implement the flipped classroom approach for lower primary students in a way that is engaging, interactive, and suitable for their learning needs.

In your own words, what is a flipped classroom?

 My current understanding of a flipped classroom is that students are introduced to new learning content before class, usually by watching a short instructional video or exploring other learning materials. When they come to class, the teacher acts as a facilitator, guiding students through hands-on activities, discussions, and tasks that help them apply what they have learned.

What is one question or concern you have about implementing flipped learning?

However, my biggest concern about implementing flipped learning is the availability of technology and internet access, as well as ensuring students are committed to completing the pre-class learning activities. I also wonder how to keep younger learners motivated and supported throughout the process.
