Subject: English

Grade Level: Grade 9

Objective: Interpret the information listened to

Learning across curriculum:

1) Mathematics: Analyzing word problems and interpreting the information provided


in solving equations requires students to listen carefully to extract key details, which
aligns with the objective of interpreting information listened to in English.

2) Science: Listening to scientific explanations and data in a biology lesson, for


example, involves interpreting complex information, connecting concepts, and
drawing conclusions, which is similar to the skill required in English.

3) History: Understanding historical events through listening to lectures or audio


recordings involves interpreting information to gain insights into the past, which is a
cross-curricular skill applicable in English.

ENGAGE:

[Teaching Strategy: Role-Playing]

[Instructional Materials: Role-play scenarios related to interpreting information


listened to]

1) Idea - Divide students into groups and assign each group a scenario where they
need to interpret information from a conversation they listen to and act it out.

2) Idea - Conduct a debate where students have to interpret and present arguments
based on the information they listened to.

EXPLORE:

Activity 1: Listening Gallery Walk

[Teaching Strategy: Experiential Learning]


Materials - Audio clips, posters for students to write their interpretations

Significance - Students move around the classroom, listening to different audio clips
and interpreting the information they hear.

Instructions - Students listen to each clip and write down their interpretations on the
posters provided.

Rubric - Accuracy of interpretation - 5 pts.

Assessment Questions:

1) What was the main idea of the audio clip you listened to?

2) How did the tone of the speaker affect your understanding of the information?

3) What additional details did you infer from the audio clip?

EXPLAIN:

Teaching Strategy: Direct Instruction

Example 1 - The teacher explains the importance of active listening skills in


interpreting information accurately.

Example 2 - Use of visual aids such as diagrams or infographics to help students


understand the process of interpreting information listened to effectively.

ELABORATE:

[Teaching Strategy: Project-Based Learning]

Task 1 - Students create a podcast episode where they listen to a guest speaker and
interpret the information presented, discussing it in their podcast.

Task 2 - Students analyze a TED Talk or a speech, interpret the key points, and
present a summary in a creative format such as a comic strip or a skit.

EVALUATE:

[Teaching Strategy: Games and Gamification]


[Instructional Materials: Quiz questions related to interpreting information listened
to]

Question 1 - Provide a short summary of the news report you listened to.

Question 2 - How did the background music in the audio clip influence your
interpretation of the information?

Question 3 - Compare and contrast the viewpoints of the different speakers in the
audio clips provided.

Assignment:

1) Create a dialogue between two characters where one character provides


information that the other character needs to interpret accurately.

2) Listen to a podcast episode or a TED Talk, take notes on the key points, and write
a reflection on how effectively you interpreted the information presented.
