When planning with the end in mind, it is critical that students learn the necessary vocabulary to allow them to take the intermediate steps necessary to reach the end goals.

How did today’s learning connect to the work we are doing around backward planning?

# data[].attributes.body
We are expected to think about the end when we plan. At the end of the day, we want our students to understand what they are reading. We can get there with explicit vocabulary instruction.

# data[].attributes.body
We need to truly understand what we are teaching and why before we dive into it. Otherwise, we are as lost as the students. Today we did that with tier two vocabulary.

# data[].attributes.body
Having students understand vocabulary word can help them produce quality work which will help build their confidence throughout all their subject areas.

Determining what vocabulary terms students will need in order to be successful in the unit.

# data[].attributes.body
When planning with the end in mind, educators need to be aware of what students need to walk away with -- not only skills and strategies but vocabulary. If they cannot complete an exit slip with a certain vocabulary word that is critical for their grade level, that shows where the teacher will need to adapt and support.

# data[].attributes.body
It shows us the power of evaluating the vocabulary words we deem necessary for students to know in order to be successful with the incoming unit.

# data[].attributes.body
you must identify vocabulary words that students need to understand by the end of the unit

# data[].attributes.body
This work directly connects to planning with the end in mind because we are using the highest leverage words from the state exam to ensure our students are exposed and prepared to show mastery.

# data[].attributes.body
Vocabulary words provide students with an entry point t to access and understand the lesson. Students should get every opportunity to learn vocabulary words that they will meet across content areas in order to produce favorable outcomes

# data[].attributes.body
Ensuring students have a working knowledge of pertinent vocabulary with regard to problem solving helps a great deal with backwards planning, and having the end result in mind.

# data[].attributes.body
Unit plans can list anticipated Tier 2 words students will encounter during the unit so lesson plans and instruction include them throughout the unit and teach them explicitly.

# data[].attributes.body
This work connects to what we are doing by helping our students to achieve comprehension and overall success in literacy.

# data[].attributes.body
The work we did today connects with our backwards planning work because we can incorporate the tier 2 words into the planning, and assessments we will be engaging in our future lessons. We need to have full understanding of the material we are presenting our students with. Also, them understand what they are presented with.

# data[].attributes.body
Today’s work is in alignment with backwards planning because a part of our assessment it to evaluate students ability to interpret essential vocabulary words in order to accomplish the overall task.

# data[].attributes.body
With backwards planning, not only do we have to think about the questions students should be able to solve, we have to think about the vocabulary within the problem. Are the students able to comprehend the vocabulary within the text before attempting to solve.

# data[].attributes.body
This will help to support teachers when it comes to planning lesson plans and helping to differentiating between student learning.

# data[].attributes.body
It helps us to prepare for what words students will be engaging in during group or independent work and need to know to effectively engage in the lesson.

# data[].attributes.body
We need to focus on what the student needs to know for the end assessment and what words will help them understand the material/concept.

# data[].attributes.body
In order for the students to understand what's expected they do, they need to understand the directions given. i.e. If we need for the students to evaluate and expression, we need to explain what an expression is and what does evaluate means.

# data[].attributes.body
By showing us what vocabulary words are relevant as we plan for our students and to have a better understanding of what vocabulary words our students need to know in order to be successful

# data[].attributes.body
Teaching tier 2 vocabulary connects to backward planning because we are learning the words first, drilling them before they come up. This way, when they do show up, students are ready. This is in the spirit of background planning because we are learning these tier two words now knowing that we are going to be using them later, ergo backwards planning

# data[].attributes.body
It shows how to achieve retention and comprehension can be achieved through backwards planning.

# data[].attributes.body
This learning connected to the work we are doing around background planning because we are identifying which aspects of student leaning is pivotal to their academic success.

i the past the emphasis was taken away from vocabulary , and as time progressed the academic community is recognizing the value in carving out the time to introduce and engage in vocabulary acquisition

# data[].attributes.body
Building student’s vocabulary comprehension repertoire is essential for planning with end goal in mind. It is very simple, if students don’t understand certain vocabulary words within a text, or question their thinking process will be limited due to that comprehension gap. If this is addressed early on, the students comprehend in any subject should improve greatly.

How to incorporate tier 2. Words into students learning to build their vocabulary. Using their 2 words would help students understand their work or a question a lot more if they knew how to break down what they are reading

# data[].attributes.body
We are viewing the goals and incorporating them into the lessons - placing an emphasis on vocabulary building.

It's helpful in that we are using vocabulary in lessons to increase familiarity and taking time to break words down or demonstrate how to break words down as needed.

# data[].attributes.body
Understanding that vocabulary/comprehension are key components in order to be effective and efficient in any subject area

# data[].attributes.body
Students need to be presented with various strategies to understand the reading. Teaching to determine the meaning of words would allow them to increase their comprehension.

# data[].attributes.body
I think this work will support in lesson planning by identifying language objective words that students will encounter throughout the lesson.

# data[].attributes.body
When backward planning - product in mind first - we can interject specific vocabulary prior to the lesson or unit so that they have a grasp of the language first.

# data[].attributes.body
The vocabulary words are an important key that helps students to understand the lesson and be able to work independently.
