Weekly Learning Plan
Subject	Ghanaian Language	Week	13
Duration	60 minutes	Form	SHS 2
Strand	Language and Usage	Sub-Strand	Lexis and Structure
Learning Outcome(s)	2.2.1.LO.1 - Demonstrate understanding and practical application of Word formation, idiomatic expression and vocabulary extension within the curriculum sub-strand Lexis and Structure.
Learning Indicator(s)	2.2.1.LI.1 - Word formation, idiomatic expression and vocabulary extension
Lesson Focus	Word formation, idiomatic expression and vocabulary extension
Previous Knowledge	Learners recall the immediately preceding knowledge/skill needed to engage with Word formation, idiomatic expression and vocabulary extension; the starter diagnoses this rather than assuming mastery.
Lesson Objective(s)	Identify or explain the key subject idea/procedure in Word formation, idiomatic expression and vocabulary extension. Complete the concrete guided/practical task for Word formation, idiomatic expression and vocabulary extension accurately. Apply Word formation, idiomatic expression and vocabulary extension independently to a new case, data set, text, material or performance situation.
Essential Question(s)	What evidence or procedure is needed to work accurately with Word formation, idiomatic expression and vocabulary extension? What would a strong practical/application response to Word formation, idiomatic expression and vocabulary extension look like? How would changing the context, data or constraints affect a decision about Word formation, idiomatic expression and vocabulary extension?
Pedagogical Strategies	Diagnostic questioning Experiential/problem-based learning Collaborative analysis Guided modelling Independent application Peer/self assessment
Teaching & Learning Resources	Word/sentence cards Short contextual text Grammar editing sheet Dictionary/glossary
Key Notes on Differentiation
Content	Provide a partially completed example, labelled materials or vocabulary support for learners who need scaffolding in Word formation, idiomatic expression and vocabulary extension. Extend the task by adding a new constraint, less familiar case or requirement to compare alternatives in Word formation, idiomatic expression and vocabulary extension.
Process	Use mixed-ability pairs for the first application, then require an individual transfer task. Allow oral/visual demonstration where appropriate while retaining the same subject accuracy criteria.
Product	Use a checklist/rubric tied to the concrete output for this week rather than participation alone. For advanced work, require justification with evidence, calculations, source reference or quality criteria.
Success Criteria	The learner uses correct subject terminology and evidence. The learner completes the week’s concrete product/calculation/performance with acceptable accuracy. The learner explains why the procedure/choice fits the stated context rather than giving a memorised general answer.
Homework	Collect or create a short example of Word formation, idiomatic expression and vocabulary extension in the selected Ghanaian language and annotate the feature being studied.

Lesson Activities
Stage	Teacher Activity	Learner Activity	Assessment / DoK
Starter10 minutes	Use an authentic short utterance, word set, passage, image or cultural situation in the selected Ghanaian language connected to Word formation, idiomatic expression and vocabulary extension; learners respond in that language as far as possible.	Inspect the prompt/materials, record an initial response about Word formation, idiomatic expression and vocabulary extension, and justify it briefly.	Not provided.
Activity 115 minutes	Model the exact language feature for Word formation, idiomatic expression and vocabulary extension—pronunciation, tone, structure, orthography, reading strategy, text organisation or cultural vocabulary—using a short example.	Group words from a short text by root/affix/semantic field or register and explain meaning in context.	Check accuracy in the target language feature, not just participation.
Activity 220 minutes	Learners practise Word formation, idiomatic expression and vocabulary extension through speaking, listening, reading, writing, translation, interview or performance with peer feedback.	Transform or combine sentences to practise the target structure while preserving meaning and correct orthography.	Use a rubric for meaning, accuracy, fluency/coherence and appropriateness to context.
Activity 310 minutes	Each learner produces an individual oral/written response that demonstrates Word formation, idiomatic expression and vocabulary extension in a new context.	Edit a five-sentence paragraph containing deliberate vocabulary/grammar/register errors and explain three corrections.	Check independent transfer to the new context and correct one recurring error.

Lesson Closure

Ask learners to give one corrected/example sentence or expression that shows what they can now do better in Word formation, idiomatic expression and vocabulary extension. Complete a one-minute exit response using a concrete example from the lesson on Word formation, idiomatic expression and vocabulary extension.
