QUESTION 1
Read the scenario and respond to the questions below.
Scenario
It is nearing Mother's Day, and teacher Rose has planned for the children to make Mother’s
Day cards. Teacher Rose supplies the children with different pieces of paper she has cut
out for the main structure of the card, different re-usable waste material, small circles,
different shapes and crayons.
She gives the children clear instructions about creating Mother’s Day cards. The children
remain silent as they carefully listen to her instructions about creating the cards. They are too
afraid to make any mistakes. Teacher Rose is pleased to see all the different beautiful cards
that the children have created. The children are very happy the activity is over and run off
to play outside.

, 1.1 Identify any two literacy skills that learners can acquire from this activity.
Two literacy skills that learners can acquire from this activity are:
Listening Skills:
The learners demonstrate listening skills by carefully following Teacher Rose's instructions.
Listening is a key component of emergent literacy, as it helps children process spoken
language and follow directions, which is essential for learning to speak, read, and write.
Narrative Skills:
During the activity, the children are developing narrative skills by expressing themselves
creatively through making Mother's Day cards. Although they may not be verbally telling a story,
the process of creating the cards allows them to communicate ideas, concepts, and feelings
visually. If encouraged, they could further develop their narrative skills by describing their cards
or the experience of making them.
1.2 Compare the role of the teacher to the role of the learners in this lesson. Give
reasons to justify your response.
In this lesson, the teacher's role is primarily that of a pedagogical leader and facilitator. Teacher
Rose takes the lead by preparing the materials, giving clear instructions, and overseeing the
children's work. The teacher is responsible for creating an environment conducive to learning,
ensuring that the children understand the task, and promoting literacy through hands-on
activities like card making. The teacher's role also involves guiding the children through the
process, encouraging them to listen and follow directions, and offering opportunities for
creativity.
