Description

I taught ‘Curriculum Teaching and Learning’ as one of the master-level courses that enables course participants to broaden their understanding of curriculum models, teaching, learning and assessment approaches. The assignment required participants to choose a topic in their subject area, review relevant literature, and identify challenges faced by teachers and students during teaching and learning that topic.
In addition, course participants were asked to list misconceptions students possess regarding the relevant topics and explore possible solutions and recommendations to address the identified challenges and misconceptions. Thus, the course participants developed learning resources (lesson plans) using the 5E model (Engage, Explore, Explain, Extend or Elaborate, and Evaluate) based on constructivist learning theory to implement the lessons in real classroom settings.
This teacher manual is one of the Curriculum, Teaching and Learning Course Outcomes. It is a valuable resource for subject teachers and educators, offering research-based information on teaching and learning of the selected topics, along with detailed lesson plans for classroom implementation.
This teacher manual includes lesson plans submitted by Javed Ahmad, Sadam Hussain, Sardar Hussain, Shella Asad, Tahira Jabeen, Tajun Nisa, Wahid Murad. I hope that you will find this manual helpful!
First of all I would like to acknowledge Curriculum, Teaching and Learning course participants for developing the lessons following 5E model.
I express my gratitude to Ms Sania Iqbal Siddiqui (Specialist, Aga Khan University Examination Board) for her invaluable editorial insights and meticulous attention to detail that have significantly enhanced the quality of this document.
Finally, I would like to appreciate Ms Sara Faizal for her exceptional efforts in designing and compiling the document ,and ensuring an insightful reading experience for our audience.
You will also find a brief introduction to the 5E model of lesson planning in this document. Following that, you will find the students’ work, which includes a brief literature review on their selected topic, as well as lesson plans for English, Mathematics, Science, and Social Studies. Each lesson plan concludes with activities and references.
