Q2

When planning for a small group experience you should consider the following:

The purpose of the group – what are the desired learning outcomes (skills/knowledge)
What role will the educator play in the group? For example, facilitator, director, role model, tutor, coach?
What will the children be required to do? For example, listen passively, engage in hands-on experiences, engage in discussion, complete set tasks?
How will the experience be introduced?
How will the experience be concluded?
Will the children work co-operatively, in pairs or as a group?
What resources, materials or aids will be used?
How will children be encouraged to listen and stay on-task?
How long will the group experience last?
How will children be transitioned to and from the group experience?

Q3

One of the difficulties and limitations of large/whole group experiences is that children may not yet be able to attend, follow directions or adjust their own needs to accommodate others to any great extent. Experiences that are conducted with large groups, limit opportunities for active, hands-on learning and it is often difficult to keep children on-task. These issues can result in disruptive/undesirable behaviour in children who are not able to cope in a large group. It may also create safety/supervision issues.
