This ELTAC Unit 4 activity plan focuses on teaching summary writing to grade 3 learners. The activity plan includes objectives, activity description, analysis, barriers to skill acquisition, and integration of speaking. The story for the activity is 'Saving the Birds'. The learners will be taught the concept of summarising a text and will be divided into groups of five. The teacher will use the black/white board and divide it into four sections with the following headings - Main characters, Problem, Solution and Summary. The learners will read the story in group and then identify the characters, the problem and the solution. Afterwards, they will stitch all the three elements together and write a short story that tells the bigger story they have read in a very short manner. The most effective way of incorporating speaking in this activity is through making the children read the summary that they have written. One learner from each group can read their summary to the whole class. The primary non-linguistic barriers to the development of relevant LSRW skills include a variety of extra academic factors like the learner’s preferred learning style, socio cultural differences, developmental issues, personal to specific learners as well as certain within classroom factors like dispute, teacher student relationship etc.
