Differentiation

Pupils who need support will receive short examples to match with the correct type of edemede and a guided template for listing omọgwọ steps, while advanced pupils will write a full page on one type of edemede and provide a deeper character analysis with evidence from the passage.

Note for teachers using this lesson plan

Use simple examples that pupils can relate to when teaching types of edemede, and insist on clear differences between each type. When teaching omọgwọ, keep the discussion respectful and focus on the steps and benefits. During character analysis, guide pupils to support their points with actions and words from the passage.
