Lesson Plan for Primary 2 - Information Communication Technology - Parts Of The Gsm Phone

**Lesson Plan: Parts of the GSM Phone** **Grade Level:** Primary 2 (Second Grade) **Subject:** Information Communication Technology (ICT) **Topic:** Parts of the GSM Phone **Duration:** 45 minutes **Objectives:** By the end of the lesson, students should be able to: 1. Identify and name the basic parts of a GSM phone. 2. Describe the function of each part of the phone. 3. Demonstrate how to handle a phone safely. --- ### Materials Needed: - A real, non-functional GSM phone (for demonstration) - Pictures of a GSM phone showing different parts - Flashcards with names and pictures of phone parts - Chart paper and markers - A computer with a projector or an interactive whiteboard (optional) - Coloring sheets of a phone diagram (for individual student activity) ### Lesson Steps: #### 1. Introduction (5 minutes) - Greet the students warmly and ask them if they know what a GSM phone is. - Explain that GSM stands for Global System for Mobile communication, which is a standard used by mobile phones to communicate with each other. - Show them a real GSM phone and a large picture of a phone with its parts labeled. #### 2. Presentation (15 minutes) - **Show and Tell:** Use the real phone and the picture to introduce the main parts of a GSM phone. Discuss and show each part as you name them: 1. **Screen/Display:** Where we see everything. 2. **Battery:** Powers the phone. 3. **SIM Card Slot:** Stores the subscriber information. 4. **Buttons/Keypad:** Used to dial numbers or type messages. 5. **Microphone and Speaker:** Used for voice communication. 6. **Charging port:** Where the phone is plugged in to charge. - **Functions and Descriptions:** Briefly explain the function of each part. For instance: - "The screen/display shows us pictures, numbers, and letters." - "The battery helps the phone to turn on and work." #### 3. Interactive Activity (10 minutes) - **Group Activity:** Split the class into small groups and give each group a set of flashcards that have phone parts and their names. - Ask the groups to match the pictures to the correct names. - Walk around the classroom to assist the groups and ensure they are on the right track. #### 4. Hands-On Activity (10 minutes) - **Individual Task:** Distribute coloring sheets with a diagram of a GSM phone showing its parts. - Ask students to color the different parts of the phone and label them. - Provide them with colored pencils or crayons. #### 5. Conclusion and Review (5 minutes) - **Class Discussion:** Recap the parts of the GSM phone by reviewing the chart paper, asking the students to name each part and describe its function. - **Safe Handling Tips:** Briefly discuss how to handle a phone carefully: - Don't drop the phone. - Keep the phone away from water. - Use the phone under the supervision of an adult. - **Q&A:** Allow students to ask questions if they have any. #### 6. Closing (3 minutes) - Congratulate the students on their participation and remind them of the importance of handling technology responsibly. - Announce the next topic or give a short teaser about the next ICT lesson to build interest. ### Assessment: - Evaluate students' understanding through their participation in the interactive activity. - Check the coloring sheets for accurate naming and coloring of GSM phone parts. - Observe students’ ability to describe and identify phone parts during the review session. ### Additional Notes: - Adjust the complexity of the explanations based on the students’ comprehension levels. - Use simple and relatable language appropriate for Primary 2 students. - Incorporate multimedia aids, if available, for visual and auditory learners. --- **End of Lesson Plan**
