Hi all

I have an interview on monday and have to prepare a 1 and a half hour lesson plan on Supporting children - includes, legislation, safeguarding, policies, transition, diversity etc aimed at level 3 students. Then prepare and present 10 minute teaching session on the subject. Any ideas, it is a very serious subject and not sure how to make it lighthearted and get interview panel involved.

Any advice ideas very welcome


Many thanks

Deb

Hi thanks for your reply I am also a childminder, just completed my BA (Hons) Education and Childcare and hopin to change career and become further education teacher of childcare and education, hence the interview. !

I don't really understand what the brief is, debsnlittleangels. I'm having a hard of thinking day, obviously!

I think it is a tall order to cover all those subjects in an hour and a half - although I understand you don't have to actually teach it but even so - hard to plan for, I'd say.

And the ten minute microteach - do you choose one aspect of the subjects you've mentioned or do you have to address them all?

Hi, you summed up the situation completely!!

The brief is quite wide, but I presume they want me to focus on a smaller element to concentrate on to do in the 10 minute micro session and detail in the one and a half plan.

Like all interviews until you have some experience it is finding the clue to what they are looking for.

Thanx

Deb
