Differentiation – how do you plan to give more support? How do you plan to challenge the more able learners?

Assessment – how are you planning to check learners’ learning?

Health and safety check

Less able learners were helped with poster protection with new words and key words.

More able learners help the less able learners ask and answer the questions, solve and discuss environmental problems in widely form, write sentences in zero conditional. Stronger students can support weaker students in pair and group works.
