Collaboration: Identification of ability and positioning to ensure mixed ability. Through structured grouping [GESI] ask Learners to explain surface drainage system. This method is to ensure effective participation in teaching and learning by different categories of Learners including Approaching Proficiency, the Proficient and the Highly Proficient. Collaboration: Identification of ability and positioning to ensure mixed ability. Through structured grouping [GESI] ask Learners to outline types of surface drainage system. Collaboration: Identification of ability and positioning to ensure mixed ability. Through structured grouping [GESI] ask Learners to discuss the benefits of surface drainage system. Experiential Learning: Embark on a field trip to an estate development Site where surface water drain system is been installed for Learners to observe and learn about surface drainage. E.g. types of surface drains, i.e. combined and separate system. Assessment (3.3.2.AS.6). The document marks these depth-of-knowledge levels for this indicator: Level 2 Skills of conceptual understanding; Level 3 Strategic reasoning. Teaching and Learning Materials: - Surfing on the Internet to find information about Services in the Building. - The use of simulation (virtual) to illustrate the functioning of Services installations in the building. - The use of Flip Charts with Services Lay-Out Plans to show distribution of basic services in the building. - Surfing on the Internet to find finishes used on buildings - The use of simulation (virtual) to illustrate functions of finishes on building - Charts, - Pictures - Illustrations - Sample of finishes - Scale models.
