Justification to the materials used
Activity 1

In the activity 1, I choose YouTube video “Food Alphabets ABC Phonics Song” and a set
of flashcards in introducing letter, new vocabularies and the correct pronunciation to the words. I
choose the specific YouTube video because the content covers both vocabularies related to the
topic and follows the sequence of the alphabet which make it more recognizable by pupils and
increase their memorization skill. Furthermore, the song introduced in the video includes the
correct basic phonics to the pupils in a very captivating and interesting method by matching the
words to the beat of the music. Hence, pupils are able to automatically reproduce what they heard
in the song and improve their correspondence to the words sound.

Furthermore, the usage of flashcards helps to increase pupils’ retention and provide detail
explanation on letters recognizing to the pupils. This visual learning makes language experience
more alluring and motivating to ensure the language learning experience not only successful but
also interesting. It considered the function of visual learning as one of the most exciting and
stimulating method to be introduced to young pupils (Baratta, 2010 as cited in Philominraj, A.,
2017). The flashcards then help to introduce the letter mentioned in the audio in term of uppercase
and lowercase to familiarized the pupils to its shape and function that the YouTube video could
not support.

Activity 2
In the activity 2, I choose Jamboard and create an interactive game named “Filled my tray”

that enable pupils to read the sentence given and provide correct answer to the question. I choose
Jamboard as a medium because it allows pupils to drag anything easily compared to others
platform. Furthermore, through Jamboard, pupils will be able to jump from one page to other page
easily as in flipping a book. It will help students stay focus and engage to the activity.

Justification to the assessment tool used

Checklist

Checklist is defined as an assessment guideline listing skill, behaviour or characteristic to
help guide and record teacher observation of pupils as they perform certain tasks (Scholastic
literacy, 2000). I choose checklist as assessment tool for these activity as it is considered to be
quick and easy way to find out about pupils’ understanding and progress. Furthermore, checklist
also set out skills, strategies and behaviours for evaluation and offers ways to systematically
organized information about pupils (Lauzon, N., 2014). Therefore, by using checklist, I am able to
combine both of my activities into one checklist while maintaining the organization of the specific
criteria that I decided to assess on my pupils. The criteria that I have chosen include different
types of skills like listening, speaking, reading and behavioral aspect. In addition, checklist
assessment also allows teachers to be flexible by taking pupils’ progression data informally
through out the lesson. This can be seen when I am assessing pupils during guessing activity in
activity one. During the process, the instruction required pupils to raise their hand and mention
their name in order to receive opportunity to answer the questions given. During this moment,
teacher unnecessarily need to hold a pen, checklist paper and check whether all pupils adhere to
the instruction given. Teacher can just observe the situation and provide information that teachers
can see at a glance and make mental note on what pupils are able to do at the moment; whether
the pupils able to act in certain behaviour or whether they are able to understand the lesson
provided by giving correct answer.

The use of checklist is also effective in supporting pupils learning where it encourages
pupils to play an active role, not only in their assessment but also in the learning process. It is
supported by Responsive Classroom, (2018) that checklist acts as useful reminders of specific
expectations and can help students stay focused and on task when working independently. This
can be seen from the behavioural aspect in the assessment for activity one where the volunteer
to answer questions given are taken into account in the assessment. It will drive pupils’ passion
to try and volunteer themselves during questions session in order to admit themselves to the
checklist and receive positive outcomes for their assessment. In other case, checklist also helps
pupils in completing their task independently by staying focus on the objectives the lesson
required. During the independent session on activity two, this checklist will help students develop
the understanding of the expected behaviours and outcomes from the teacher, thus expecting
them adhere to the time limit and completing the task given.

10

To add on to that, checklist also provide students with tools that they can use for self-
evaluation. It is supported that the usage of checklist as assessment tool are varied starting from
single-use design, multiple use design, teachers as observer, peers as observer or self-
assessment (Lauzon, 2014). With the materials chosen in introducing literacy skill, pupils are able
to reflect and evaluate upon their own progress when doing the activity. Therefore, teachers can
provide the checklist to the pupils and take their personal thoughts upon their own learning
process. Teachers may also observe the pupils and compare the result of the observation with
the pupils’ self-assessment to get a better understanding of what they need to reach their full
potential. This type of assessment tool does not only benefit teacher in work load, but also
students in improving their learning style to increase their understanding.

Checklist as assessment tool really beneficial as it helps in making the learning and
assessment process seems natural and less stressful for pupils. This environment will help
teachers to precisely evaluate pupils’ understanding to the topic and their behavioural aspect.
