1. Thato is a newly qualified senior phase EMS teacher at a well-resourced
school in South Africa. Thato has been very focused on classroom discipline
and has adopted a teacher-centered autocratic teaching style in her classroom.
She has noticed that the learners seem uninterested in the subject content and
do not participate in the lessons eagerly. On the other hand, the headmaster
has identified you as the most passionate and innovative EMS teacher at the
school who has shown a great connection with the learners. He advises Thato
to approach you for advice on how to improve learner interest and
participation in her Grade 7 EMS classroom. Thato asks you to help her plan
a lesson for her Grade 7 EMS class on the topic, “The Economy: Needs and
wants”. Choose a learner-centred teaching method (excluding the flipped
classroom) that you think will be suitable for this lesson. The lesson must be
CAPS aligned. Hint: Discuss the learner-centred method you have chosen by
answering the following questions (provide a relevant heading in each
instance):
1.1. Give a detailed description (in your own words) of the learner-centred
method you will advise Thato to use and justify why you have chosen this
method in the context of the Grade 7 class given above. (5)
1.2. Evaluate (using practical examples) how Thato will use the method you
have chosen to practically deliver the Grade 7 lesson on the topic, “The
Economy: Needs and wants”, by implementing your pedagogical content
knowledge (PCK). Your explanation should indicate a well-rounded PCK by
referring to the teaching and learning strategy as well as the subject content.

1.1 Learner-Centred Method: Jigsaw Activity
I would recommend Thato utilize a Jigsaw Activity for her Grade 7 EMS lesson
on "The Economy: Needs and Wants." This method is ideal for this context
because:
• Active Learning: Jigsaw activities promote active learning by placing
students in the role of both learners and teachers. This fosters deeper
understanding and engagement compared to a traditional lecture format.
