LEARNING ACTIVITY PLAN Introduction
The teacher asks the children to sit in a circle.
The teacher shows children the "We’re going to the Zoo" to fill them with enthusiasm.
Children watch the photos and videos they captured during the excursion to the Zoo. Main Activity
Children look at the pictures and videos on the interactive whiteboard (IWB) and engage in an open-ended discussion.
The teacher asks children questions like "what animal did they like the most or what was the favourite part of their excursion, and why?”
The teacher provides children with digital cameras to take pictures of the physical environment like trees, plants, birds, rocks, sandpits, and flowers.
Get the children together again and print the pictures they took.
Display their pictures on the whiteboard and encourage children to describe their experience while taking pictures. For example, “do they like to spend time outdoors? Why did they choose particular pictures?” Children's responses will be voice recorded by other children with the educator's help.
Conclusion
The whole class will listen to the voice recordings to boost children's confidence to participate and reflect on their verbal skills.
The teacher will set up an indoor natural play space with children, including plants, rocks, and wild animals, to extend their real-life experience into imaginary play.
The teacher will upload the voice recordings on the Playground app for the parents to access.
Resources/props:
IWB, iPad, digital camera, laptop, wild animals, natural resources like plants, sticks, rocks, plant pots, branches.
Curriculum connection:
This activity supports Early years learning framework sub-outcome 5.3: “Children express ideas and make meaning using a range of media” (Department of Education and Training, 2019, p.45). The activity will allow children to access digital cameras to take pictures and express their views about nature and their experience with the camera. The activity promotes
opportunities where educators support children's oral language by engaging them in various discussions and asking open-ended questions. The voice recording allows children to listen to their audio recordings and reflect on their oral language progress.
FOCUS CONCEPT (approximately 100 words):
Explain the role of ICT
in teaching and
learning language and literacy
Information and communication technology (ICT) plays a progressive role in supporting young children to become effective communicators and learners (Fellowes & Oakley, 2019).
ICT enables children to access knowledge and demonstrate their imagination through language (Fellowes & Oakley, 2019). The focus concept for this plan is to develop children's language and literacy through engaging them in various interactions promoted by multiple modes of technology (Fellowes & Oakley, 2019).
Provide an example of how ICT is used
in this Learning Activity Plan to support oral
language development For example, this lesson supports access to IWB, printers, digital cameras, voice recorders which fosters their imagination. Children listen and communicate their thoughts produced from the captured pictures, followed by different inquiry-based questions. Various ICT sources will support children to use their oral language by promoting opportunities to solve problems with decision-making skills and involving conversations (Fellowes & Oakley, 2019).

LEARNING ACTIVITY PLAN
Introduction
The teacher introduces the book "Children around the world" during group time which describes how everyone belongs to different places and share different cultures.
General discussion will take place where children can name different countries.
The teacher displays the World map on the wall.
The teacher explains the purpose of string in the activity.
Main
Activity
Teachers ask questions from children like "where were they born, where were their parents born, how far is their country from Australia?"
Based on the child's origin country, the educator asks children to stick one end of the string to their picture and the other end to their origin country. Teachers assist children with the string.
As each child completes the task, the educator asks, “if they ever visited their origin country?”
Once everyone finishes, diversity can be noticed and explained by the teacher.
Children take turns to name their language and say any sentence in that language with its meaning in English to other children.
Conclusion
Children watch the "Hello around the world” song.
The teacher set up the multi-cultural play space with children, including
family photos, traditional costumes, and children's voices documented during the activity.
Parents welcomed to cook their traditional meal with the children.
Resources/props:
World map, string, laptop, family photos, 'Children around the world book,' children family pictures, traditional clothes, traditional puppets.
Figure: Traditional puppets
Curriculum connection:
This activity supports sub-outcome 1.3 Children develop knowledgeable and confident self-
identities. (Department of Education and Training, 2019)
The activity allows all children to develop confident identities while explaining different aspects of
their culture like their cultural language, food, and clothes. Children feel supported by the educators as they are asked additional questions and engaged in respectful conversations. Different cultures are recognised while children practice saying “Hello," which also increases the sense of belonging.
FOCUS CONCEPT Explain the implications of home language and culture
for teaching and learning language and literacy The focus concept for this plan is to include children’s home language and culture into the curriculum who speak English as an additional language. Including children's home language support children's learning as it develops their ability to learn reading and writing (Fellowes & Oakley, 2019). Each child has their own ‘funds of knowledge’ acquired from their families, which further nurtures their knowledge, interests, and abilities (Fellowes & Oakley, 2019).
Provide an example of how
supporting
home language/culture in this Learning Activity Plan promotes oral language development. For example, this lesson plan supports children's home language and culture by participating in conversations about their origin country (Fellowes & Oakley, 2019). Children respond to queries related to their culture, which enhances new vocabulary (Fellowes & Oakley, 2019). Children's social interactions contribute to developing their oral language through participating in discussions and the desire to express
themselves (Fellowes & Oakley, 2019).
