Ms Muna Task 5

The document outlines observation tasks for student teachers to gain understanding of different learners. Over two weeks, they will observe a lower level learner for one week and a higher level learner the next week. The objectives are to understand how learners differ. The tasks involve observing a class for an hour, noting strengths/weaknesses, and how the teacher manages different abilities. Student teachers will then observe one learner, either lower or higher level, for the rest of the day, noting activities, interactions, focus time, and likes/dislikes.
