  1. The learning contents should be arranged in stages:
    - from easy to complex
    - from general to specific
    - from concrete to abstract
    - from acquired knowledge/experience to new knowledge/experience
    - from nearby surrounding/situation which has been experienced to distant surrounding yet to be explored

  3. Design learning activity that involves the child to use up all of their abilities from physical until their mental capabilities. Activities that can be carried out is like puppet play where students can become creative in making up stories and it also involves some physical movements so that the students will not feel bored.

  6. 1) telling stories that are closely related to their daily life experiences.
    2) praise their students' work and paste it on the board in the classroom.
    3) a mini forum that is related and based on the topic that is targeted by teachers.
    4) set up a mini library at the corner of the class might enhance the learning of students
    5) organise some competition among the classes such as story-telling, spelling bee, scrabbles is one of meaningful activities.

  13. 1.Design authentic learning activities that build on existing knowledge, values and skills of all learning
    groups in the learning community.
    2. Create flexible tasks and tools for knowledge sharing to enable the notion of an online learning community.Tools for study and social interaction.
    3. Provide different forms of support, both within and outside of the learning community. Another way is to provide various access means to different resources to promote students’ efforts to obtain information from multiple sources and perspectives.
    4. Establish responsive student roles and responsibilities to provide a sense of autonomy and ownership
    for students.
    5. Provide flexibility in learning goals, outcomes and assessment modes.

  18. Organise learning activities through play which encourage demonstration.
    E.g, Language games, riddle, quiz, crossword puzzle and treasure hunting.
    This benefits the development of self-awareness, self-confidence and self-control of learners.

  19. 1- Teachers must recognize the level of the students in order to have a meaningful learning (teaching should be conducted according to their level- low, moderate, high)
    2- Attract their attention to make sure that the students have the passion to learn (use creativity such as video, role play, anything that can attract their attention)
    3- During teaching and learning, allow the students to express ideas as well as opinion. Also praise them. This will motivate them to interact during classes as well as avoiding the class to be silent and bored.
    4- Change the surrounding environment. (conduct classes outside the classroom so that the students can change the mood of learning . Sitting in the class for a day can be tiring and bored. Thus, change the surrounding can change the students attitude)
    5- Reward (it is good to reward the students at the end of the classes so that they can be motivated to learn on the next classes)

  20. Meaningful learning is "a process that is situated within the context and the culture of the learning community"...

    *Teachers shall provide hands-on/interactive activities, because learners are active partners in the learning process.

    *Teachers shall engage learners in problem-solving tasks and activities to inculcate higher-order thinking skills.

    *Conduct/engage students in critical reflection during and after their activities so that they are aware of what they have learned for the day.

    *Ensure the learning is situated within the context of real-world or authentic problems so that they are familiar with the process as well as to enable them to apply what they have learned in daily life.

    *Create learning activities that scaffolds support and promote cognitive apprenticeships.

  21. Designing meaningful learning :

    - Teacher must find out the students' level and plan activities which are suitable and applicable - matching the students' level
    - Use graphic organizers, or colours to attract the students' attention and enhance their understandings.
    - ensure that the environment is conducive enough for the students to pay attention to the session.
    - use body gestures
    - ask questions to evaluate their understanding
    - use anecdote to attract them
    - play games with them so the students will not get bored
