I plan my lessons by collaborating with the general ed teachers  and then modifying the lesson for my students.

I utilize collaborative planning with my grade level for lesson plans. We discuss what the standard is and where we think our students are and find the necessary worksheets/reading that goes along with the standard.

I plan my lessons using collaborative planning, the curriculum and goals that each student requires special services. Also, I research resources to build up to each students goals and slightly above. I always end instruction with questions for the students such as: what are you taking away from this lesson, what are your thoughts about what you've learned...Mrs. Garrett

I plan weekly base on the curriculum. When planning I look at where we are based on performance and schedule any reviews we may need.

I review the curriculum map and review the standards. I decide what the students need to learn first. Focused more on what skills need to be assessed. Then I plan what to teach.

This workshop connects to what I am already doing in the classroom by giving me more practices to try. I feel that I have more ways to try to reach students and provide effective instruction. This gives me more ways to try to keep students engaged and provide feedback. The “Maintain and Modify” really stuck out to me from the student standpoint. I’d like to hear from them and I would even ask them “Why?” The teacher reflection questions will definitely help me process how the lessons went.

Conscious Closing:
This connects to what I'm already doing in the classroom: This presentation highlighted a couple of the strategies I use when closing out a lesson: ticket out the door/ think-pair-share with a partner

How does this help with student achievement? Improving lesson plans and being conscientious of where the children are academically, where the curriculum maps says we are supposed to be and making sure that children are gaining knowledge at a reasonable pace. Students have an opportunity to become more engaged learners when teachers are prepared and actively teaching and involving students in their learning.

How does this help me become a more professional educator? This helps me become a better professional educator because it creates an awareness of what a lesson plan involves and to develop strategies to engage learners at every step of the learning process/lesson(s).... opening, working, and closing sessions.
