Keys2 Unit 2: The Fun Bus

Introductory Statement

Units have been designed to exemplify ways of using the ELCG to develop learning
and teaching activities. Furthermore, the unit includes learning intentions and
assessment approaches relevant to Key Stage 2.

These units reflect the integrated learning approach central to the four language skills
on page 69-70 of the ELCG as well as in Appendix 5 of ELE KLACG 2017 focusing on
reading and writing. The units emphasise the need for student-centered activities that
incorporate the three generic strands into the Keys 2 Literacy Development (Keys2).
Units are written to develop students’ reading and writing skills progressively over all
the levels of Key Stage 2. The units build on and reference previous programmes
developed by the NET Section, CDI, EDB, HKSAR.

A. About this Unit

This P.4 unit uses the book, The Fun Bus. It has been specifically designed to continue
the development of reading and writing skills.

It incorporates the following teaching strategies:

a) Shared Reading; and


b) Process Writing.

It also incorporates:

a) guidance for assessment (e.g. high frequency words);


b) suggestions for the setting up of a language rich environment (see PD
package);
c) classroom management routines (see PD package);
d) development of decoding and comprehension reading strategies;
e) co-operative learning (see PD package);
f) student self-reflection (e.g. reflection of learning intentions, end of unit student
self-reflection);
g) writing checklist; and
h) e-learning (Optional).

B. Unit Organisation

The lessons are designed to be taught in a consecutive series. This block approach
provides for consistent and optimal learning opportunities.

Some lessons are designed to be taught within a double lesson (two single lessons
back to back) for continuity of learning.

Resources are provided every time you see the code (2.1a). This translates to ‘Unit 2,
Lesson 1, Resource a).

‘Teacher Talk’ is provided to give teachers more information about activities and to
assist them to explain activities to their students. A hyperlink to ‘Teacher Talk’ is
indicated by in the bottom right-hand corner of an activity.

Videos are provided for teacher reference for some activities. A hyperlink to a video is
indicated by in the bottom right-hand corner of an activity.

Suggestions for e-learning opportunities are provided for schools which would like to
incorporate e-learning in their English language curriculum. A hyperlink to e-learning
is indicated by in the bottom right-hand corner of an activity.

Suggestions for differentiation opportunities are provided for schools to cater for the
learner’s needs. A hyperlink to the differentiated materials is indicated by in the
bottom right-hand corner of an activity.

C. Before the Unit Task (2-3 weeks before the unit starts)

Choosing High Frequency Words for the Unit

Before the unit starts, students conduct a self-assessment of 49 High Frequency


Words (HFW) that are from the text, The Fun Bus (2.1a). Students tick off the words
that they know how to read (not focusing on the meaning). Once students have
completed this task the teacher will need to analyse the majority of words the students
do not know to plan for the words to be introduced in the lesson. This self-assessment
is done so teachers can focus on teaching students the unfamiliar words. If possible,
invite a Teaching Assistant (TA) to help with compiling the data for the self-
assessment.

D. Classroom Display

Posters will be provided to help enhance the language-rich environment. These


include, ‘Decoding Strategies Poster’, ‘Reading Comprehension Strategies Posters’,
‘Process Writing Posters’ and ‘Revising Triangles Posters’. Teachers are encouraged
to display students’ work throughout the unit.

G. Guided Reading and Home Reading

© NET Section, CDI, EDB, HKSAR Page 4


Keys2 Unit 2: The Fun Bus

Guided Reading and Home Reading are recommended to be carried out weekly
through-out the school year. Although these units of work do not specifically include
Guided Reading and Home Reading, they are strongly recommended. When Guided
Reading is scheduled, two teachers are needed for that lesson. Schools requiring
assistance in implementing Guided Reading can refer to the Keys2 Guided Reading
and Home Reading Packs.

H. Ways to revisit Keys2 strategies in GE lessons


a. Display decoding or comprehension poster(s) and make reference to them
while teaching GE lessons.
b. Put content words of student’s choice in their Word Bank.
c. Link ideas, book terminology, HFW from the Keys2 lessons to GE lessons
whenever possible.
d. Refer students to the reading strategies posters to solve reading problems;
invite students to share what strategies work for them, e.g. self-monitoring,
making connections.
e. Remind students to apply the strategies introduced in Keys2.

f. Use ‘Thumb Gestures’  to reflect on learning in GE lessons.


I. Differentiation for Learner’s Needs

The units have been developed to cater for different students’ needs. This has been
done through, differentiated texts and differentiated task requirements. Suggestions
will be provided in the lesson plan accordingly.

J. Cooperative Learning Strategies

Cooperative learning strategies are strategies that allow the students to work together
to learn and solve problems. Cooperative learning also allows students to learn more
about social interaction and how to work well with others. Students get very excited
and love to participate in cooperative learning strategies.

K. Self-managing Activities (SMA)

Self-managing activities have been included in the unit to cater for the needs of early
finishers. Teachers can select the tasks they feel are most appropriate for their
students. The resources can be found in the ‘Self-managing Activities’ folder.

L. Portfolios

Samples of learners’ written work such as worksheets, first and final writing drafts, lists
of achieved high frequency words, personal vocabulary lists and self-assessment
sheets can be included in a portfolio. Students can analyse their work to see their
strengths and weaknesses and plan some personal goals. Students can take their
portfolios home to share their work with parents/guardians, while teachers can refer to
portfolios to analyse students’ learning.

Unit Outcomes

Keys2 Unit 2: The Fun Bus

The main reading focus of this unit is to revisit and further explore a narrative text.
Within this unit, students will use a narrative text with a focus on reading with
expression and dialogue. The narrative text will be used as stimulus to motivate the
students to create their own imaginary recount. Students will be aware of the text-type
features of a recount which include an orientation, events and an ending.

In this unit students will develop the following skills:

Keys2 Unit 2: The Fun Bus

Features of each stage of Process Writing

Pre-writing (input)  Teachers help students make connections


between what they read and what they are
going to write.
 Students are made aware of the language,
vocabulary and text-type features that they can
use for their writing.
Pre-writing (thinking)  Students brainstorm ideas and organise them
into a graphic organiser.
Drafting  Teacher introduces the rubric and explains the
expectations.
 Students recall the features of a text type to
form a foundation for writing.
 Students use their ideas to draft their writing,
focusing on content.
Revising  Teacher suggests ways for students to improve
the content of their draft through the use of
‘Revising Triangles’(R).
 Students make changes to improve their writing.
Editing  Teacher introduces editing code.
 Students correct the focus errors, such as
spelling and punctuation.
Publishing  Students share their piece of work and
celebrate their effort.
 Teachers provide opportunities for students to
publish their work, such as classroom displays.

Teachers monitor students at all stages of the writing process. They provide a positive
environment where it is safe to make mistakes.

Students are provided an opportunity to monitor their own writing through:

Self-reflection  Students reflect on their own learning, based on


the unit objectives and feedback received from
others.
Writing Checklist  Students evaluate their own writing through the
writing checklist which particularly highlights the
text type features of the specific text introduced.
 Students comment on each other’s writing with
reference to the writing checklist.

Keys2 Unit 2: The Fun Bus

N. Editing Code

An editing key includes symbols that teachers may use to indicate errors in students’
writing. It allows teachers to support students in proof-reading their mistakes without
doing the correction for them. No more than two to three symbols should be used at
one time. This will allow teachers and students a specific focus when editing.

Symbol Meaning Example


(p) (Ben)
(a) Let me know if you see ben.
(p) punctuation (p) (“) (p) (”)
(b) What is your name? asked John.

(sp) (umbrella)
(sp) spelling My umbella was at school.

(t) (bought)
(t) tense I buy ice-cream yesterday.

(pl) (apples)
(pl) plural Bananas and apple are delicious.

(w) (taller)
(w) wrong word Tom was tallest than John.

(to)
^ missing word(s) I want send this letter.
^
(/)
(/) extra word The student she studies often.

O. Writing Checklist

A checklist helps students understand the features of the writing task. Teachers need
to introduce the checklist for students’ reference in the drafting lessons and inform
them it will be used as a guide in the revising and editing lessons. The checklist is
specific to the text-type. It will be used for self and peer assessment.
