Question pretext
Instructions
Observe two lessons per school for at least an hour both for grade 4 either in English or Math. During the first 25 minutes, the observation should be made from inside the classroom, without disturbing the lesson.
Sit in the back of the class and observe the class for 25 minutes. Every 5 minutes record a snapshot of what the teacher and class are doing. Make a tick in the appropriate box, i.e. if after 10 minutes, the pupils are doing class work and the teacher is filling out registers, then make a tick under snapshot 2 for both these activities. If none of the activities are applicable, then make no tick.
After 25 minutes, leave the room and observe the classroom from outside for 15 minutes without being seen by the teacher and without disturbing the lesson. Again, record your observations every five minutes (i.e. report a snapshot of activities in the class).
Pupil's test: Next step is to select randomly 10 pupils from the class you just observed using the class roster. Write the list of the 10 pupils on 2 sheets of paper. Leave one to the teacher
