The Bina programme toolkit
The Bina programme comes as a comprehensive CD-ROM toolkit; and each theme has its own CD with the following:
• PowerPoint presentation
• Lesson plan
• Exercise worksheet
• Pupils’ note
PowerPoint presentation
The PowerPoint presentation is compatible with all school whiteboards and contains ten graphic illustrations to tell the story. It also has the set questions, some suggested answers and key messages at the end of each theme.
Lesson plan
The lesson plan is a key part of the toolkit and a must-read for anyone who will be delivering a lesson. Within the lesson plan are: learning objectives, the full story, questions and very detailed notes and suggestions on how to facilitate manage the questions. The lesson notes give the teacher the confidence to deliver without any fears. Please see a sample of a lesson plan.
Exercise worksheet
Each pupil has one to use individually during every lesson to answer the simple questions set specifically to challenge and help develop their critical thinking skills, as well as improve their literacy skills – so this is a key part of the process of learning.
Pupils’ notes
The pupils’ notes are a snapshot of the illustrated story and the key message from the lesson. This has been designed for the pupils to take away to read in their own time.
