Pull outs for advanced and resource make it difficult to integrate subjects. For example, I love to integrate social studies and reading, but have 10 students pulled out during either of those time slots during the day. Food for thought.

Using real world examples and asking students questions like in what situation would you need this info/resources?

Making them apply the information in real world examples that the students choose can help them make connections with the lesson and help them retain what they learned.

Students would need to be trained on how to work collaboratively and time would be needed in order to implement.

We realized that this can be an everyone thing. Small things, teachable moments and hands on activities that tie to life are deeper learning in the SLC classroom.

Creating experiences for students to use content in a real-world situation to reinforce big ideas, like an experiment in science. Ask guiding questions during exploration, and provide sentence stems for responses.

Students need a lot of direction as to how to work cooperatively. Projects need to be structured so that roles are defined and each student has to be accountable for their role.

# data[].attributes.body
Plan units around essential questions and circle back to those questions often. Teach accountability skills, teach students to be ok with critique, teach collaborative skills

UDL sounds like PBL and thematic units from "back in the day". What resources would support us tackling some real-life problems we see around us at PT? For example, we know that we must take care of the Earth, so how can we make recycling materials from our classrooms, lunches, etc. a vital part of how we learn and do things here?

My partner shared that one way to connect learning to “real world” applications would be by relating it or tying it back to things in common culture that they are interested in and actually care about.

Having students sign contracts to divy up responsibilities to hold themselves accountable

Before we can provide deeper learning, I feel we need to address the learned helplessness many students have developed; many cannot work through an iReady lesson without constant 'hand-holding'

# data[].attributes.body
Collaborate with homerooms for essentials teachers to understand which topics are being taught so they can incorporate the same topics

# data[].attributes.body
Time for us as teachers to build these types of deeper learning experiences.

Making sure your class’s culture and climate is 👍

Explicitly teaching students how to work collaboratively!

# data[].attributes.body
Team work can be good, but it is not without its challenges. Some students aren’t comfortable, others don’t hold up their end, and structures are needed to make it work

# data[].attributes.body
Having kids help solve problems through collecting data, writing letters/petitions, and doing research. This would be cross curricular and real life applicable.

# data[].attributes.body
Creating student groups that include a variety of learning styles and diverse knowledge base.

# data[].attributes.body
Dealing with learned helplessness. Dealing with behaviors to further deeper learning.

# data[].attributes.body
Asking students more open ended questions rather than straight forward.

# data[].attributes.body
We can provide deeper learning by creating cross curricular projects.

# data[].attributes.body
Changing the questions from “what is the ____ that did _____?” to “WHY did the _____ make the decision to ___________?”

# data[].attributes.body
Give open-ended questions to students to explore during the unit/lesson and allow them to present their answers to the class.

# data[].attributes.body
Asking questions to share background knowledge from the adults and children

"Put your thumbs up if....."

Ensure understanding before moving on

Usual visuals to build missing background knowledge - videos for example

Bring in community members or even high school students to speak about background information

# data[].attributes.body
Giving students roles in small groups so that every student has a role to play and an opportunity to share.

# data[].attributes.body
Its a process of providing a panoramic view point on how these skills apply to real life situations. It can answer the question "when am i gonna need this?"

# data[].attributes.body
How can we make this appropriate for our age level kids?

# data[].attributes.body
Teach kids to be independent thinkers before you can foster these deeper conversations and connect.

# data[].attributes.body
Offering time for students to work on real life problems and the ability to problem solve.

“How do we have our students plan for the future- the examples given are for older students (ex. Future jobs, college, etc.). How do we do this in an elementary setting?”
