A Reminder on Underway Form One Orientation
Course-2017.
Once again Katavi English
Language teachers and other teachers, it is good to remind ourselves of the
important things as far as our teaching profession is concerned. This time it
is about New Two Orientation Course Books for Form One, both Teacher's Guide
and Student's Book. These are new Orientation Course books, and after reading
and going through them, it is sufficient to say these books are good and in the
line with Competence Based Curriculum.
It is now advised that we
should use them for our six-week Orientation Course for Form One in 2017. If
you haven't yet received a copy or copies (and mostly soft copies), please
consult the respective departments at your school or Head of School.
The complete book titles of
these new books are:
1. Moevt (2015) Baseline: Orientation Course for Form One -
Teacher's Book, Ministry of Education and Vocational Training, Dar es
Salaam.
2. Moevt (2015) Baseline: Orientation Course for Form One -
Student's Book, Ministry of Education and Vocational Training, Dar as
Salaam.
The third resource of these
New Orientation Materials is Teaching Resources. These are the teaching
materials like maps, chats, drawings, pictures, games, and the like that
facilitate sustainable delivery of the Orientation contents. Thus, we English
teachers and other teachers are encouraged to prepare them and apply them in
teaching this very important course for the Form One Students.
Another Reminder
Notice:
Because of sophisticated
style of life we are experiencing now, you may not be able to call any RT or
myself; you may write insufficient text on your phone to any RT or myself; or
you may not be able to come face to face to me, any RT, or your fellow English
teacher who is somewhere to another remote school, BUT you can use not more
than 5MB data on your phone to get full-length explanation on how to teach a
certain topic. And apart from that, you can have your opinion on that
particular topic and any suggestions you may have about the site!
We are strongly encouraged to
take this opportunity!
