Well-structured INC3701 Assignment 5 (ANSWERS) 2025 - DISTINCTION GUARANTEED. (DETAILED ANSWERS - DISTINCTION GUARANTEED!)...Question 1 (45) 1.1 Define inclusive pedagogy and list three key principles that guide its practice. (5) 1.2 Compare and contrast how inclusive pedagogy addresses the needs of learners with physical disabilities versus learners with learning disabilities. (5) 1.3 Discuss the benefits of using Universal Design for Learning (UDL) as an approach to inclusive pedagogy in a culturally diverse classroom. (20) 1.4 Creating inclusive cultures is placed at the base of the triangle. Culture is often described as "the way we do things in our environment". It may also help you to think of it as "why we do things around here this way" because culture is shaped by our values and beliefs, which in turn inform our behaviour. Discuss three key dimensions that can be used to develop an inclusive classroom. (15) Question 2 (40) Read the following case study and answer the questions. Case study Ms Zwide is a Grade 4 teacher who values an inclusive classroom. She has a diverse group of learners, including Michel, who struggles with basic mathematics and reading concepts, and Thabo, who uses a wheelchair and faces motor and speech challenges. One day, Ms Zwide designed an activity to teach addition and subtraction using real-life scenarios. She sets up a "classroom shop" with pretend money and items priced between R1 and R20. Learners work in pairs to "shop," calculate their total and determine how much change they need after a purchase. Ms Zwide ensures inclusivity by pairing learners strategically and combining strengths and needs (e.g., pairing Michel with a peer who is confident in math). She also provides visual aids, such as number lines and coin charts, for Michel, setting up accessible pathways and a larger table so Thabo can participate without mobility challenges and allowing Thabo to use a speech-to-text app to communicate during the activity. She Downloaded by Master Vincent () lOMoARcPSD| INC3701/103/2025 6 encourages teamwork and reminds learners to be respectful and patient with one another. After the activity, the class reflected on what they had learned, how they had worked together, and how they had included everyone in the process. Questions 1. What tools did Ms Zwide provide to Michel and Thabo to help them participate in the activity? (5) 2. Why do you think Ms Zwide paired learners with different strengths and needs for this activity? How does this benefit both learners? (6) 3. What steps did Ms Zwide take to create a respectful and collaborative classroom environment? (4) 4. Do you think the "classroom shop" activity effectively promotes inclusivity and teamwork? Why or why not? (5) 5. Design a Grade 4 differentiated lesson plan on "Reading", which Ms Zwide could use in her class. Use a multi-level teaching approach in your lesson and indicate learning outcomes, objectives, resources, and different activities that learners will do during the lesson. (20) Question 3 (15) Read the following case study and answer the questions. Case study Ms Langa teaches a diverse Grade 4 class and focuses on using differentiated assessments to support all learners, especially those with barriers to learning. Among her learners are • Neo, who has dyslexia and struggles with reading and writing • Ayanda, who has ADHD and finds it difficult to focus on long tasks; and • Lerato excels academically but often feels unchallenged in standard assessments. For a history lesson on The Lives of Early Settlers, Ms Langa uses the following differentiated assessment strategies: 1. Neo can listen to an audio recording of the content and complete a verbal interview instead of writing answers. Downloaded by Master Vincent () lOMoARcPSD| INC3701/103/2025 7 2. Ayanda is with a shorter assessment broken into manageable sections with frequent breaks. 3. Lerato is given an advanced task: analysing how early settlers' lifestyles influenced modern living and presenting her findings in a creative format of her choice (e.g., poster, slideshow). At the end of the lesson, Ms Langa gathers feedback on the assessment methods to ensure all learners feel supported and engaged. Questions 2.1 Why were certain adaptations, like using audio recordings or shorter tasks, important for Neo and Ayanda? (5) 2.2 Compare and contrast how the differentiated tasks for Neo and Lerato helped them engage with the content. (5) 2.3 Do you think the differentiated assessments effectively addressed the learners' needs? Why or why not? (5)
